Glossary Metering
The metering refers to the way in which the camera measures the quantity of light to set the exposure.
Shutter speed
Shutter speed refers to the amount of time it takes to open and close the shutter, and it is an important factor in the brightness of a photo, as it controls the amount of light which pass through the aperture before it reaches the image sensor. A fast shutter speed allows less time to let light in and the photo becomes darker and more easily freezes subjects in motion.
MJPEG (Motion JPEG)
A video format which is compressed as a JPEG image.
Noise
Misinterpreted pixels in a digital image that may appear as misplaced or random, bright pixels. Noise usually occurs when photos are shot with a high sensitivity or when a sensitivity is automatically set in a dark place.
Vignetting
A reduction of an image's brightness or saturation at the periphery (outer edges) compared to the center of the image. Vignetting can draw interest to subjects positioned in the center of an image.
Optical zoom
This is a general zoom which can enlarge images with a lens and does not deteriorate quality of images.
White balance (color balance)
An adjustment of the intensities of colors (typically the primary colors red, green, and blue), in an image. [. . . ]
