Well, here is my two centavos. To begin with, my camera, being mirrorless has live histogram feature. It is necessary to look up on the internet the specific settings for the JPEG engine, because as I gather, the histogram is based on what JPEG engine computes and not on what the sensor sees. Yet,

I’m very curious if anyone has done any side by side tests. Set up a scene, set the exposure on pure automatic, then by hand held meter, then by the histogram, and see how the results vary. It would also be interesting to see the final product of those different exposures. A proper test would
