Defi nitions

A simple technique professional photographers use to ensure
they properly expose their pictures, especially in challenging
lighting situations. When AEB is selected, the camera
automatically takes three or more shots with a different
exposure for each frame.

auto focus (AF)

Auto focus refers to a camera lens’ ability to adjust its
confi guration in order to focus properly on a subject regardless
of whether it is near or far from the camera. Auto focus lenses
generally provide vastly superior image quality than do their
fi xed focus cousins since they do not have to rely on their depth
of fi eld. Also known as: “AF”, “auto-focus”

album

objects according to some user-defi ned criteria. An album may
or may not be a physical folder in a fi le system.
