Warning  
This indicates warning message that should be read before using the function.  
Photography Terms and Definitions  
Definitions  
Terms  
A simple technique professional photographers use to ensure  
they properly expose their pictures, especially in challenging  
lighting situations. When AEB is selected, the camera  
automatically takes three or more shots with a different  
exposure for each frame.  
auto exposure bracketing (AEB)  
Auto focus refers to a camera lens’ ability to adjust its  
configuration in order to focus properly on a subject regardless  
of whether it is near or far from the camera. Auto focus lenses  
generally provide vastly superior image quality than do their  
fixed focus cousins since they do not have to rely on their depth  
of field. Also known as: “AF, auto-focus”  
auto focus (AF)  
album  
An end-user created object that is used to logically group data  
objects according to some user-defined criteria. An album may  
or may not be a physical folder in a file system.  
A circuit that converts an analog signal, having a continuously  
varying amplitude, to a digitally quantized representation using  
binary output signals.  
Analog to Digital Converter (A/D  
or ADC)  
aspect ratio  
cf. image aspect ratio, pixel aspect ratio.  
viii

With auto white balance, the camera attempts to determine the  
color temperature of the light and automatically adjust for that  
color temperature. Many people just leave the camera set to  
auto white balance all the time.  
auto white balance (AWB)  
A type of silicon integrated circuit used to convert light into an  
electronic signal.  
Charge Coupled Device (CCD)  
compression  
The process of encoding information using fewer bits cf. image  
compression, sound file compression  
A standardized ASCII file created in a digital camera and stored  
on removable media along with the image files that indicate how  
many copies of which images should be printed. It also allows  
index prints, cropping, and text overlays to be specified.  
Digital Print Order Format  
(DPOF)  
A camera incorporating an image sensor which outputs a digital  
signal representing a still picture, or records a digital signal  
representing a still picture on a removable medium, such as a  
memory card or magnetic disk.  
digital still camera (DSC)  
dynamic range  
cf. ISO DSC dynamic range, colour gamut, luminance ratio  
A compressed file format for digital cameras in which the images  
are compressed using the baseline JPEG standard, described in  
ISO 12234-2, and metadata and thumbnail images are stored  
using TIFF tags within an application segment at the beginning  
of the JPEG file.  
Exif/JPEG  
A numerical value that is inversely proportional to the exposure  
provided to an image sensor to obtain an image. Images  
obtained from a camera using a range of exposure index values  
will normally provide a range of image quality levels.  
exposure index  
A numerical value calculated from the exposure provided at the  
focal plane of an electronic camera to produce specified camera  
output signal characteristics using the methods described in the  
referenced standard. The ISO speed should correlate with the  
highest exposure index value that provides peak image quality  
for normal scenes.
