Appendix Glossary AP (Access Point) AEL (Auto Exposure Lock) An access point is a device that allows wireless devices to connect to a wired network. These features help you lock the exposure on which you want to calculate the exposure. Ad-Hoc network AF (Auto Focus) An ad-hoc network is a temporary connection for sharing files or an internet connection and between computers and devices. A system that automatically focuses the camera lens on the subject.
Appendix > Glossary Camera shake (Blur) Composition 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 flash, or using a faster shutter speed. Alternatively, use a tripod or the OIS function to stabilize the camera. Composition in photography means arranging objects in a photo. Usually, abiding by the rule of thirds leads to a good composition.
Appendix > Glossary EV (Exposure Value) Flash All the combinations of the camera’s shutter speed and lens aperture that result in the same exposure. A speed light that helps to create adequate exposure in low-light conditions. EV Compensation Focal length This feature allows you to quickly adjust the exposure value measured by the camera, in limited increments, to improve the exposure of your photos. The distance from the middle of the lens to its focal point (in millimeters).
Appendix > Glossary Image sensor Metering The 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 (Chargecoupled Device) and CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor). The metering refers to the way in which the camera measures the quantity of light to set the exposure.
Appendix > Glossary Noise PAL (Phase Alternate Line) Misinterpreted 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. A video color encoding standard used in numerous countries throughout Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. Quality NFC (Near Field Communication) NFC is a set of standards for radio communication at very close proximity.
Appendix > Glossary Shutter speed White Balance (Color balance) Shutter 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.
