False color
An overlay that paints each part of the image a color based on how bright it is.
False color is a cinema tool that helps you see exposure at a glance. Pixels that are blown out turn red, pixels that are crushed turn blue, midtones turn green or grey. Instead of squinting at a histogram, you look at where the red and blue zones land in your composition. Zone Light Meter uses false color for highlight and shadow warnings on the live preview.
