aperture
iris opening of a lens measures in f-stops TERM 2
calibrate
DEFINITION 2 preset a zoom lens to remain in focus thoughout zoom TERM 3
compression
DEFINITION 3 crowding effect achieved by narrow angle lens TERM 4
depth of field
DEFINITION 4 all objects in different distances appear in focus depends on focal length of lens, fstop and distance between object and camera TERM 5
digital zooming
DEFINITION 5 simulated zoom croping center of image and enlargind it lose pic resolution
fast lens
lets relatively great amount of light pass through its max aperture can be used in low light conditions TERM 7
field of view
DEFINITION 7 portion os scene visible through particular lens its vista TERM 8
focal length
DEFINITION 8 distance from center of lens & front of cameras imaging device measured in milimiters or inches short--wide angel view long- narrow angle view TERM 9
f-stop
DEFINITION 9 calibration of lends indicating aperture or iris opening bigger- smaller aperture smaller-bigger aperture TERM 10
iris
DEFINITION 10 adjustable lens opening controls about of light passing though lens
range extender
optical attchment to zoom lens extends focal length TERM 17
selective focus
DEFINITION 17 emphasizing an object in a shallow depth of field through focus while keeping its foreground and background in focus TERM 18
slow lens
DEFINITION 18 permits small amount of ligh to pass through at its maximum aperture only used in well lighted areas TERM 19
wide angle lens
DEFINITION 19 shot focal length prvides broad vista of a scene TERM 20
z-axis
DEFINITION 20 imaginary line representing an extension of the lens from camera to horizon
zoom lens
variable focal length lens can change from wider shot to a close up vice versa
