186AppendixGlossaryAP (Access Point)An access point is a device that allows wireless devices to connect to a wired network.Ad-Hoc networkAn ad-hoc network is a temporary connection for sharing les or an internet connection and between computers and devices.AdobeRGBAdobe RGB is used for commercial printing and has a larger color range than sRGB. Its wider range of colors helps you to easily edit photos on a computer.AEB (Auto Exposure Bracket)This feature automatically captures several images at dierent exposures to help you capture a properly-exposed image.AEL (Auto Exposure Lock)These features help you lock the exposure on which you want to calculate the exposure.AF (Auto Focus)A system that automatically focuses the camera lens on the subject. Your camera uses the contrast to focus automatically.AMOLED (Active-matrix organic light-emitting diode)/ LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)AMOLED is a visual display that is very thin and light, as it does not need backlighting. LCD is a visual display commonly used in consumer electronics. This display needs a separate backlight, such as CCFL or LED, to reproduce colors.ApertureThe aperture controls the amount of light that reaches the camera’s sensor.
187Appendix > GlossaryCompositionComposition in photography means arranging objects in a photo. Usually, abiding by the rule of thirds leads to a good composition.DCF (Design rule for Camera File system)A specication to dene a le format and le system for digital cameras created by the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA). Depth of eldThe distance between the nearest and farthest points that can be acceptably focused in a photograph. Depth of eld varies with lens aperture, focal length, and distance from the camera to the subject. Selecting a smaller aperture, for example, will increase the depth of eld and blur the background of a composition.Camera shake (Blur)If the camera is moved while the shutter is open, the entire image may appear blurred. This occurs more often when the shutter speed is slow. Prevent camera shake by raising the sensitivity, using the ash, or using a faster shutter speed. Alternatively, use a tripod or the OIS function to stabilize the camera.Cloud ComputingCloud computing is a technology that allows you to store data on remote servers and to use them from a device with internet access. Color spaceThe range of colors that the camera can see.Color temperatureColor Temperature is a measurement in degrees Kelvin (K) that indicates the hue of a specic type of light source. As the color temperature increases, the color of the light source has a more bluish quality. As the color temperature decreases, the color of the light source has a more reddish quality. At 5,500 degrees Kelvin, the color of the light source is similar to the sun at midday.
188Appendix > GlossaryFlashA speed light that helps to create adequate exposure in low-light conditions.Focal lengthThe distance from the middle of the lens to its focal point (in millimeters). Longer focal lengths result in narrower angles of view and the subject is magnied. Shorter focal lengths result in wider angles of view.HistogramA graphical representation of the brightness of an image. The horizontal axis represents the brightness and the vertical axis represents the number of pixels. High points at the left (too dark) and right (too bright) on the histogram indicate a photo that is improperly exposed.H.264/MPEG-4A high-compression video format established by international standard organizations ISO-IEC and ITU-T. This codec is capable of providing good video quality at low bit rates developed by the Joint Video Team (JVT).EV (Exposure Value)All the combinations of the camera’s shutter speed and lens aperture that result in the same exposure. EV CompensationThis feature allows you to quickly adjust the exposure value measured by the camera, in limited increments, to improve the exposure of your photos.Exif (Exchangeable Image File Format)A specication to dene an image le format for digital cameras created by the Japan Electronic Industries Development Association (JEIDA).ExposureThe amount of light allowed to reach the camera’s sensor. Exposure is controlled by a combination of the shutter speed, the aperture value, and ISO sensitivity.
189Appendix > GlossaryMeteringThe metering refers to the way in which the camera measures the quantity of light to set the exposure.MF (Manual Focus)A system that manually focuses the camera lens on the subject. You can use the focus ring to focus on a subject.MJPEG (Motion JPEG)A video format which is compressed as a JPEG image.Image sensorThe physical part of a digital camera that contains a photosite for each pixel in the image. Each photosite records the brightness of the light that strikes it during an exposure. Common sensor types are CCD (Charge-coupled Device) and CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor).IP (Internet protocol) addressAn IP address is a unique number that is assigned to every device that is connected to the internet.ISO sensitivityThe sensitivity of the camera to light, based on the equivalent lm speed used in a lm camera. At higher ISO sensitivity settings, the camera uses a higher shutter speed, which can reduce blur caused by camera shake and low light. However, images with high sensitivity are more susceptible to noise.JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)A lossy method of compression for digital images. JPEG images are compressed to reduce their overall le size with minimal deterioration of the image resolution.
190Appendix > GlossaryPAL (Phase Alternate Line)A video color encoding standard used in numerous countries throughout Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.QualityAn expression of the rate of compression used in a digital image. Higher quality images have a lower rate of compression, which usually results in a larger le size.RAW (CCD raw data) The original, unprocessed data, collected directly from the camera’s image sensor. White Balance, contrast, saturation, sharpness, and other data can be manipulated with editing software before the image is compressed into a standard le format. ResolutionThe number of pixels present in a digital image. High resolution images contain more pixels and typically show more detail than low resolution images.NoiseMisinterpreted pixels in a digital image that may appear as misplaced or random, bright pixels. Noise usually occurs when photos are shot with a high sensitivity or when a sensitivity is automatically set in a dark place.NFC (Near Field Communication)NFC is a set of standards for radio communication at very close proximity. You can use NFC-enabled devices to activate features or exchange data with other devices.NTSC (National Television System Committee) A video color encoding standard used most commonly in Japan, North America, the Philippines, South America, South Korea, and Taiwan.Optical zoomThis is a general zoom which can enlarge images with a lens and does not deteriorate quality of images.
191Appendix > GlossaryShutter speedShutter speed refers to the amount of time it takes to open and close the shutter, and it is an important factor in the brightness of a photo, as it controls the amount of light which passes through the aperture before it reaches the image sensor. A fast shutter speed allows less time to let light in and the photo becomes darker and more easily freezes subjects in motion.sRGB (Standard RGB)International standard of color space established by the IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission). This is dened from color space for PC monitors and is also used as the standard color space for Exif.VignettingA reduction of an image’s brightness or saturation at the periphery (outer edges) compared to the center of the image. Vignetting can draw interest to subjects positioned in the center of an image.White Balance (Color balance)An adjustment of the intensities of colors (typically the primary colors red, green, and blue), in an image. The goal of adjusting the White Balance, or color balance, is to correctly render the colors in an image.Wi-FiWi-Fi is a technology that allows electronic devices to exchange data wirelessly over a network.WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)WPS is a technology that secures wireless home networks.
