The numerical expression of the tone of the light, produced by a light source. The standard unit for color temperature is degrees Kelvin (K). The sunny daylight used as a standard near 5600 K. Low color temperature implies warmer more yellow/red light while high color temperature implies a colder more blue light.
The typical color temperature of Tungsten light is 3200 K grade, a personal computer is 9300 K.
Exposure.The amount of light reaching the image sensor’s surface. The exposure is controlled by the combination of aperture and shutter speed.
EV
Exposure Value (EV) is a numerical value that expresses the amount of light for a given exposure, and depends on brightness of the photographic subject and sensitivity of the film. If a photographic subject is bright, then this numerical value will be large, and if the subject is dark then this numerical value will be small. If
The histogram function is a graphic representation of how bright and dark pixels are distributed in an image. The histogram function enables a precise check on the exposure of the photo.
ISO SensitivityISO(International Organization for Standardization); refers to the number assigned to each silver halide film, which indicates film speed or the film's relative sensitivity to light, the higher the number, the greater photosensitivity and vice versa. Digital cameras also use standard ISO sensitivity ratings like silver halide films.
JPEGJoint Photographic Experts Group has established a standard method for compressing and decompressing the digitized images. If the rate of compression is high the file size will be small but picture quality will be decreased.
