Hi, I remember reading something about how to use the histogram to check the exposure was right. But now I cannot find it, could someone put me in the right direction?? Either by posting some tips or by linking a tutorial or something.

Thank you very much.

At the very least, generally, make sure you don't see spikes at the ends of the graph. That indicates lost detail in the highlights (right end) or lowlights (left end). No time for more right now, sorry.
