Optical Viewfinder

Meaning: A Non-electronic device used to view the image that is being shot is known as Optical Viewfinder. Optical Viewfinders on compact dameras do not show exactly what is being shot because they are independent of the lens. The Optical Viewfinders on SLR Cameras show exactly what is being shot because they are aimed through the lens. How it functions: The Small Window generally located at the top of the camera is the optical viewfinder. Look through the Optical Viewfinder to compose yuor shot, what you see framed there is what the camera will capture. Optical viewfinders are handy for the following reason: LCD screens are hard to see in bright light, so composing your shot is hard. Advantages: Using the Optical viewfinder and turning off the LCD Screen will make your batteries last considerably longer.

Primary color filters (Bayer type)

Aperture (f/stops)

Meaning: Aperture is the opening in a lens which passes to the image sensor to create an image. How it Functions: Aperture size is usually calibrated in f-stops. The higher the f numberthe smaller is the aperture. The common f-stops are f/2, f/2.8, f/4, f/5.6, f/8 etc. Advantages: The Quality of the image depends upon the aperture range and shutter speed of the camera. The larger the f number, the smaller the lens opening and hence less light will enter into the camera.

f/2.8 - 5.8

Shutter Speed (Seconds)

Meaning: Shutter priority is an exposure mode that lets you select the desired shutter speed. Shutter Speed is measured in seconds. It is the time for which the camera exposes the sensor to the light being let in by the aperture setting. How it functions: A Shutter consists of blade, a curtain, plate, or some other movable cover in a camera that controls the time during which light reaches the sensor. Many point and shoot cameras have fixed shutter speeds. Single Lens Reflex (SLR) cameras offer a greater control over the shutter speed. If you use a very slow shutter speed (about 1/8 sec) you will not be able to hold the camera in you hand and shoot the subject clearly. The Image thus obtained will get blurred.

Mechanical shutter and electronic shutter, 1/2000 sec.

Sensor Type

"Meaning: The two types of censors are CCD and CMOS. CCD - Charged Coupled Device sensor is a light sensitive chip used for Image gathering. CMOS - Coplimentary metal oxide Semiconductor is another type of image sensor found in digital cameras also. How it functions: CCD is the most common form of photosensitive cells used to convert incoming light into electrical signals in Digital cameras. In their normal condition these are greyscale devices. To create colour, a colour pattern is laid down on the sensor pixels, using RGBG color mask. (Red, Green, Blue and Green). Advantages: A digital image sensor converts light into electrical signals, which are then converted into an video inside the camcorder using the Camcorder video processor."
