Glossary

ISO sensitivity

The sensitivity of the camera to light, based on the equivalent film speed used in a film camera. At higher ISO sensitivity settings, the camera uses a higher shutter speed, which can reduce blur caused by camera shake and low light. However, images with high sensitivity are more susceptible to noise.

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)

A lossy method of compression for digital images. JPEG images are compressed to reduce their overall file size with minimal deterioration of the image resolution.

LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)

A visual display commonly used in consumer electronics. This display needs a separate backlight, such as CCFL or LED, to reproduce colors.

Macro

This feature allows you to capture close-up photos of very small objects. When using the macro feature, the camera can maintain a sharp focus on small objects at a near life-size ratio (1:1).

Metering

The metering refers to the way in which the camera measures the quantity of light to set the exposure.

MJPEG (Motion JPEG)

A video format which is compressed as a JPEG image.

NFC (Near Field Communication)

NFC is a set of standards for radio communication at very close proximity. You can use NFC-enabled devices to activate features or exchange data with other devices.

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.

OIS (Optical Image Stabilization)

This feature compensates in real-time for shaking and vibrating while shooting. There is no image degradation compared to Digital Image Stabilization feature.
