Glossary of terms CCD (Charge-Coupled Device) This converts light passing through the lens into electrical signals. On this camera, light is picked up and converted into RGB signals to build a single image. DCF (Design Rule for Camera File System) A standard for image files by the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA). 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. 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). Image Size The size of an image expressed by the number of pixels that make up the image. For instance, a picture taken with an image size of 640 × 480 fills the computer screen when the monitor setting is 640 × 480. However, if the monitor setting is 1,024 × 768, the picture only takes up part of the screen. JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) A compression format for still images. Pictures taken with this camera are saved in JPEG format. By downloading these images to a computer, users can edit them using graphics application software or view the images using an Internet web browser. NTSC (National Television Systems Committee) / PAL (Phase Alternating Line) Television formats. NTSC is mainly used in Japan, North America and Korea. PAL is mainly used in Europe and China. PictBridge 8 A standard for connecting digital cameras and printers of different makers and printing out pictures directly. Pixels A pixel is the smallest unit (dot) used to make up an image. Clear large-sized printed images require millions of pixels. Sleep Mode A mode designed to save battery life. The camera automatically enters the sleep mode if you do not operate it for a certain time. Press l, k, or the shutter button to activate the camera. TFT (Thin-Film Transistor) Color Monitor A transistor color monitor constructed using thin-film technology. Appendix 103
