Photography Terms and Definitions

Terms Definitions
auto exposure bracketing (AEB)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.
autofocus (AF)Autofocus 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. Autofocus 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”
albumAn 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 filesystem.
Analog to Digital Converter (A/D or ADC)A circuit that converts an analog signal, having a continuously varying amplitude, to a digitally quantized representation using binary output signals.
aspect ratio cf. image aspectratio, pixel aspect ratio.
auto white balance (AWB)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.
Charge Coupled Device (CCD)A type of silicon integrated circuit used to convert light into an electronic signal.
compression cf. image compression, sound file compression
connectionA transport-provided logical or physical persistent mechanism for transferring data between devices.
Digital Print Order Format (DPOF)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 still camera (DSC)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.
dynamic range cf. ISO DSCdynamic range, colour gamut, luminance ratio
Exif/JPEGA 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.
exposure indexA 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.
file systemThe software structure which specifies how the data are logically organized on a given storage medium.
folderAn optional sub-structure in a hierarchical storage area that can contain data objects.
ISO speedA 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.
JPEGJoint Photographic Experts Group. An image compression method defined in ISO/IEC 10918-1.
memory cardA specific type of memory module with a physical form factor approximating that of a credit card in outline; approx. 85 mm x 55 mm.
OSD On Screen Display
PCPersonal Computer. Any personal computing device, which may employ various hardware architectures and operating systems.
protocol Defined mechanismsfor exchanging data between devices.
StorageIDA device-specific four byte unsigned integer (UINT32) that represents a unique storage area that may contain data objects. The most significant sixteen bits of a StorageID represents the PhysicalStorageID, while the least significant sixteen bits of a StorageID represents the LogicalStorageID.
USBUniversal serial bus, a digital interface for connecting up to 64 devices in a tiered-star topology. See http://www.usb.org.
white balanceThe adjustment of electronic still picture color channel gains or image processing so that radiation with relative spectral power distribution equal to that of the scene illumination source is rendered as a visual neutral.
