Glossary
P (Program) Mode
Also called Program AE mode. The camera automatically sets the best
shutter speed and aperture for the shot.
PictBridge
A standard that allows connection of digital cameras and printers made by
different manufacturers and enables direct printing.
Pixels
A pixel is the smallest unit (dot) used to make up an image. Clear large-sized
printed images require millions of pixels.
Resolution
The size of an image expressed by the number of pixels that make up the
image. For instance, a picture taken in 640 x 480 resolution is the same size
as the screen when the monitor setting is 640 x 480. However, if the monitor
setting is 1024 x 768, the picture only takes up part of the screen.
S (Shutter Priority) Mode
Also called Shutter Priority AE mode. The user selects the shutter speed and
the camera automatically varies the aperture so that the picture is taken with
the best exposure.
Sleep Mode
A mode designed to save battery life. The camera automatically enters the
sleep mode if you do not operate it for a certain time. To get out of the sleep
mode, use any button on the camera (shutter button, arrow pad, etc.).
TIFF (Tagged Image File Format)
A format used for saving highly detailed black and white or color image data.
TIFF image files can be handled by software programs for scanners and
graphics applications. This camera uses TIFF as an uncompressed image file
format.
TFT (Thin-Film Transistor) Color Monitor
A transistor color monitor constructed using thin-film technology.
TTL (Through-The-Lens) System
To help adjust exposure, a light receptor built into the camera directly
measures the light passing through the lens.
