Week 5 Vocabulary: RAW, TIFF, JPEG

RAW: RAW files are uncompressed, meaning all the photo processing is done on the computer. With a RAW file, you have complete control over the temperature adjustments, tint, hue, and exposure

TIFF: TIFF files are image archives that enable you to store image data in a lossless format, and may be edited and re-saved without losing image quality

JPEG: the JPEG format is best for compressing photographic images, however, while JPEG files can contain colorful, high-resolution image data, it is a lossy format, which means some quality is lost when the image is compressed

Week 4 Vocabulary: triangle of exposure, depth of field, motion blur, noise sensitivity, light sensitivity

Depth of Field: the distance between the nearest and furthest objects that give an image judged to be in focus in a camera

Motion Blur: the streaking in rapidly moving objects in a still image or a sequence of images such as in a movie or animation either due to rapid movement or long exposure

Noise Sensitivity: a light that does not originate from the subject, and therefore creates random color in an image; the higher the ISO, the rougher or grainier a photo is, and the noisier the image is; and the lower the ISO, the less sensitive the image sensor is and therefore the smoother the image, because there is less digital noise in the image

Light Sensitivity: ISO refers to the light sensitivity in a camera; the more sensitive a camera is to light, the higher the ISO number (used in low light situations)
