• Movie recording may be interrupted with some types o memory card.

• The data in internal memory may be erased or corrupted when the camera is repaired. Please note that the

Glossary

Digital zoom: Unlike optical zoom, digital zoom does not increase the amount o visible detail. Instead, details vis-

ible using optical zoom are simply enlarged, producing a slightly “grainy” image.

DPOF (Digital Print Order Format): A standard that allows pictures to be printed rom “print orders” stored

in internal memory or on a memory card. The inormation in the order includes the pictures to be

printed and the number o copies o each picture

A   p  p en d i   x

printed and the number o copies o each picture.

EV (Exposure Value): The exposure value is determined by the sensitivity o the image sensor and the amount

o light that enters the camera while the image sensor is exposed. Each time the amount o light doubles, EV 

increases by one; each time the amount o light is halved, EV decreases by one. The amount o light entering the

camera can be controlled by adjusting aperture and shutter speed.

Exi Print: A standard that allows inormation stored with pictures to be used or optimal color reproduction dur-

ing printing.

 JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group): A compressed fle ormat or color images. The higher the compressionrate, the greater the loss o inormation and more noticeable drop in quality when the picture is displayed.

Motion JPEG: An AVI (Audio Video Interleave) ormat that stores images and sound in a single fle, with the images

recorded in JPEG ormat. Motion JPEG fles can be played in QuickTime 3.0 or later.

WAV (Waveorm Audio Format): A standard Windows audio fle ormat. WAV fles have the extension “*.WAV” and

may be compressed or uncompressed. The camera uses uncompressed WAV. WAV fles can be played using

Windows Media Player or QuickTime 3.0 or later.

White balance: The human brain automatically adapts to changes in the color o light, with the result that objects

that appear white under one light source still appear white when the color o the light source changes. Digital

cameras can mimic this adjustment by processing images according to the color o the light source. This process

is known as “white balance.”
