Glossary
Colour space
A defined range of colours from the spectrum which are used. In digital cameras, [sRGB] is defined as
the standard Colour Space by Exif. In this camera, [AdobeRGB] is also used because of its richer colour
expression over sRGB.
Colour Temperature
This numerically expresses the colour of the light source illuminating the subject. This is indicated in
absolute temperature, using Kelvin (K) units.
The colour of light shifts to a bluish colour as the colour temperature rises, and to a reddish colour as the
colour temperature falls.
DCF (Design Rule for Camera File System)
A digital camera file system standard established by the Japan Electronics and Information Technology
Industries Association (JEITA).
Depth of Field

select a smaller aperture to increase the depth of field or use a larger aperture to decrease the depth of
field.
DPOF (Digital Print Order Format)
Rules for writing information onto a card with recorded images regarding the specific images and
number of copies to be printed. Prints can easily be made by taking images to a DPOF photo printing
store.
EV (Exposure Value)

EV Compensation
Process of adjusting the image brightness by changing the shutter speed and aperture value.
