Glossary
Recorded Pixels
Indicates the size of the image by the number of pixels. The more pixels that compose a picture, the
larger the image size.
Sensitivity
The sensitivity of the camera to light; the equivalent of film speed in a camera using film. With a high
sensitivity, images can be shot with a high shutter speed even in dimly lit places, reducing camera
shake. However, images with high sensitivity are more susceptible to noise.
Shutter Speed
The length of time that the shutter is open and light strikes the CCD. The amount of light that strikes the
CCD can be changed by altering the shutter speed.
sRGB (standard RGB)
International standard of colour space established by the IEC (International Electrotechnical
Commission). This is defined from colour space for PC monitors and is also used as the standard colour
space for Exif.
Vignetting
Vignetting occurs when corners of pictures are darkened because the subject was blocked by the hood
or filter or the flash was blocked.
White Balance
While shooting, colour temperature is adjusted to match the light source so that the subject appears to
have correct colour.
