Glossary of terms
CCD (Charge-Coupled Device)
This converts light passing through the lens into electrical signals. On this
camera, light is picked up and converted into RGB signals to build a single
image.
DCF (Design rule for Camera File system)
A standard for image files by the Japan Electronics and Information
Technology Industries Association (JEITA).
Digital ESP (Electro-Selective Pattern) Light Metering
This determines the exposure by metering and calculating the light levels in
the center and other areas of the image separately.
DPOF (Digital Print Order Format)
This is for saving desired print settings on digital cameras. By entering which
images to print and the number of copies of each, the user can easily have
the desired images printed by a printer or print lab that supports the DPOF
format.
JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)
A compression format for color still images. Photographs (images) shot using
this camera are recorded onto the card in JPEG format when the Record
mode is set to SHQ, HQ or SQ. By downloading these images to a personal
computer, users can edit them using graphics application software or view the
images using an Internet web browser.
NTSC (National Television Systems Committee) / PAL (Phase
Alternating Line)
Television formats. NTSC is mainly used in Japan, North America and Korea.
PAL is mainly used in Europe and China.
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 the picture expressed as the number of dots (pixels) that make up
the image. For instance, a picture taken in 640 x 480 resolution is the same
size as the PC 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.
