Getting Ready Taking Photographs Back Images Playing Erasing Images lRed-Eye Effect The phenomenon where people’s eyes sometimes appear red in the picture when you use a flash to photograph them in low-light conditions. This is caused by the light of the flash reflecting off the inside of the eye. lWhite Balance When the brightness of the light changes, the human eye adapts so that a white object still looks white. On the other hand, devices such as digital still cameras see a white subject as white by first adjusting the balance to suit the color of the ambient light around the subject. This adjustment process is referred to as matching the white balance. lSD Memory Card The Secure Digital (SD) Memory Card is a flash memory storage device designed by the consortium of Matsushita Electronic (Panasonic), SanDisk and Toshiba to meet the security, capacity, performance and environmental requirements inherent in emerging audio and video consumer electronics devices. This recording medium can be used over and over again. lFormatting Transforming the contents of the SD Memory Card to a recordable state. (This is sometimes called “initialization”.) lExposure Compensation When the screen contains an extremely bright or dark object, the camera automatically adjusts the brightness, resulting in the subject being reproduced darker or lighter. Exposure compensation adjusts for this. lPRINT Image Matching The PRINT Image Matching system prints the image of a digital still camera (with PRINT Image Matching function) in high quality using a PRINT Image Matching compatible printer. When taking a photograph, the image data is added with PRINT Image Matching print command which enable the printer to print in an optimum color. - 133 Handy Functions Other Applications Information Additional
