Photography Terms and Defi nitions
Terms
auto exposure bracketing (AEB)
auto focus (AF)
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 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
Analog to Digital Converter (A/D or ADC)
aspect ratio cf. image aspect ratio, pixel aspect ratio.
An end-user created object that is used to logically group data objects according to some user-defi ned criteria. An album may or may not be a physical folder in a fi le system.
A circuit that converts an analog signal, having a continuously varying amplitude, to a digitally quantized representation using binary output signals.

auto white balance (AWB)
With auto white balance, the camera attempts to determine the color temperature of the light and automatically adjust for that color temperature. Many people just leave the camera set to auto white balance all the time.

The process of encoding information using fewer bits cf. image compression, sound fi le compression
A standardized ASCII fi le created in a digital camera and stored on removable media along with the image fi les that indicate how many copies of which images should be printed. It also allows index prints, cropping, and text overlays to be specifi ed.
A camera incorporating an image sensor which outputs a digital signal representing a still picture, or records a digital signal representing a still picture on a removable medium, such as a memory card or magnetic disk.
A compressed fi le format for digital cameras in which the images are compressed using the baseline JPEG standard, described in ISO 12234-2, and metadata and thumbnail images are stored using TIFF tags within an application segment at the beginning of the JPEG fi le.
A numerical value that is inversely proportional to the exposure provided to an image sensor to obtain an image. Images obtained from a camera using a range of exposure index values will normally provide a range of image quality levels.
A numerical value calculated from the exposure provided at the focal plane of an electronic camera to produce specifi ed camera output signal characteristics using the methods described in the referenced standard. The ISO speed should correlate with the highest exposure index value that provides peak image quality for normal scenes.
