K110D Operating Manual pdf version.
You might like to look through pages 130 to 133.
The metering mode does effect the way the camera interprets the light in a scene. Take a look at page 132.
AE Metering
• Multi-segment
• Center-Weighted Average
• Spot metering
The EV compensation is not canceled when turning off the camera, so you might want to take a look at page 143.
Exposure compensation / Aperture value
Hold this button and turn the command dial to set exposure compensation (-2.0 to +2.0 EV in 0.3 or 0.5 EV steps) - not available in all modes. In manual exposure mode hold this button and turn the command dial to set aperture, turn the dial on its own to set shutter speed.
After that you might take a look at page 174. This page is about setting the camera to display the histogram.
This
link has an introduction to the histogram as well as this
link.
Thank you
