PictBridge A Camera and Imaging Products Association standardized technology that allows printing of images between any PictBridge compliant digital camera and any PictBridge compliant printer. Thus, you can print from a memory card in a digital camera directly to a printer, regardless of brand. No computer is necessary. Each device is automatically recognized by the other. The camera compares its PictBridge functions to the functions of the printer. The camera then displays the supported functions on menus on the LCD display or in the viewfinder. Once a PictBridge digital camera is connected to a compliant printer, print options appear on the camera monitor (LCD). The camera menu system is used to select settings such as print size, layout, media type, and date. You can print a single image displayed on the camera, print two or more images, or print all of the images on the memory card. You can print part of an image by first cropping it within the camera and even create index prints (contact sheets). To find out if a camera or printer is PictBridge compatible, look for the PictBridge logo on the packaging or check the manual for specifications.

PTP Picture Transfer Protocol. A standard for transferring pictures from a digital camera.

Red Eye The red-eye effect in flash photography is caused by the light from the flash reflecting off the blood vessels and interior eye tissue in humans. Animal eye glow from reflections is caused by a different internal eye structure, which is much like a mirror. When not enough time elapses between the flash and exposure (as with most compact cameras), the light of the flash occurs too fast for the iris of the eye to close the pupil. The flash of light is focused by the lens of the eye onto the blood-rich retina at the back of the
