PictBridge

A Camera and Imaging Products Association standardized technology that

allows printing of images between any PictBridge compliant digital camera and any
PictBridge compliant printer. Thus, you can print from a memory card in a digital camera
directly to a printer, regardless of brand. No computer is necessary. Each device is
automatically recognized by the other. The camera compares its PictBridge functions to
the functions of the printer. The camera then displays the supported functions on menus
on the LCD screen or in the viewfinder. Once a PictBridge digital camera is connected to a
compliant printer, print options appear on the camera monitor (LCD). The camera menu
system is used to select settings such as print size, layout, media type, and date. You can
print a single image displayed on the camera, print two or more images, or print all of the
images on the memory card. You can print part of an image by first cropping it within the
camera and even create index prints (contact sheets). To find out if a camera or printer is
PictBridge compatible, look for the PictBridge logo on the packaging or check the manual
for specifications.

PTP

Picture Transfer Protocol. A standard for transferring pictures from a digital camera.

R

Red Eye

The red-eye effect in flash photography is caused by the light from the flash

reflecting off the blood vessels and interior eye tissue in humans. Animal eye glow from
reflections is caused by a different internal eye structure, which is much like a mirror.
When not enough time elapses between the flash and exposure (as with most compact
cameras), the light of the flash occurs too fast for the iris of the eye to close the pupil. The
flash of light is focused by the lens of the eye onto the blood-rich retina at the back of the
eye. The image of the illuminated retina is then focused by the lens of the eye back to the
camera, resulting in a red appearance of the eye on the picture.
