Red-eye reduction
When a flash is used to take a picture of a person, the light of the flash reflecting from the back (retina) of the
subject's eyes has the effect of making them appear to glow red. This camera is equipped with a red-eye
reduction function to prevent this effect.
Shooting mark
The "z" mark displayed on the LCD monitor when the camera is ready to take the picture.
Shutter speed
This refers to the time for which the camera's shutter (a curtain behind the lens) opens when a picture is taken.
Shutter-priority AE
The photographer selects the shutter speed and the camera then automatically sets the optimum aperture
setting for the shot. By setting the shutter speed, the photographer can take images of subject that move
quickly or take images in dark space without the flash.
Subject
This term refers to the person or object photographed by the camera. In portrait shots, the subject is the person.
In shots of landscapes, the subject is the scenery.
TFT (Thin Film Transistor) color LCD monitor
The type of LCD monitor used in this camera. TFT panels provide good resolution and excellent
responsiveness.
White balance
The light emitted by fluorescent tubes or incandescent light bulbs differs slightly in color. Without some
adjustment, the colors in shots taken under such light sources differ from the actual colors you see. For this
reason, a white subject is used as a reference to adjust the colors before shooting so that the resulting photo
shows the actual colors of the subject.
Zoom lens
This is a lens in which the photography scale can be changed gradually. In a zoom lens, the photography scale
is varied by gradually changing the focal length.
