Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers. Incompatible batteries and chargers can cause serious injuries or damage to your camera.
Never dispose of batteries in a fire. Follow all local regulations when disposing of used batteries.
Never place batteries or cameras on or in heating devices, such as microwave ovens, stoves, or radiators. Batteries may explode when overheated.

This represents a dark picture if the graph is inclined to the left and if the graph is leaning to the right, this represents a bright picture. The height of graph is related to the color information and the graph gets higher if a specific color is distributed more.
