You must take the Log of the vertical axis range values
data = RandomVariate[
TruncatedDistribution[{-2, 2},
NormalDistribution[0, 0.5]], 1000];
Histogram[data, 10, {"Log", "PDF"},
PlotRange -> {{-2, 2}, Automatic},
Frame -> True,
PlotRangeClipping -> True]
Histogram[data, 10, {"Log", "PDF"},
PlotRange -> {{-2, 2}, Log /@ {0.01, 1.0}},
Frame -> True,
PlotRangeClipping -> True]
However, since Log is Listable, this can be shortened slightly to
Attributes[Log]
{Listable, NumericFunction, Protected}
Histogram[data, 10, {"Log", "PDF"},
PlotRange -> {{-2, 2}, Log at {0.01, 1.0}},
Frame -> True,
PlotRangeClipping -> True]
