Glossary of terms 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. Dual Auto Focus An auto focus system that uses two different focus detection systems in combination. This camera uses the CCD's contrast detection system in combination with the specified sensor's phase difference detection system, nullifying the shortcoming of each system. Eclipsing (Vignetting) This refers to when an object obscures part of the field of view so that the whole subject is not photographed. Vignetting also refers to when the image seen through the viewfinder does not exactly match the image shot through the objective lens, so the photographed image includes objects not seen through the viewfinder. In addition, vignetting can occur when an incorrect lens hood is used, causing shadowing to appear in the corners of the image. EV (Exposure Value) A system for measuring exposure. EV0 is when the aperture is at F1 and the shutter speed is 1 second. The EV then increases by 1 each time the aperture increases by one F stop or the shutter speed increases by one increment. EV can also be used to indicate brightness and ISO settings. Exposure The amount of light used to capture an image. The exposure is determined by the time the shutter is open (shutter speed) and the amount of light that passes through the lens (aperture). Flash Bracket A mount used to attach an external flash to the camera. Shadows on the subject can be changed by detaching the flash. The flash is used in combination with the flash cable. ISO A method for indicating film speed by the International Organization for 11 Standardization (ISO) (e.g. "ISO100"). Higher ISO values indicate greater sensitivity to light, so images can be exposed even in low-light conditions. Miscellaneous 249
