Glossary
Macro
This feature allows you to capture close-up photos of very small 
objects. When using the macro feature, the camera can maintain 
a sharp focus on small objects at a near life-size ratio (1:1).
Metering
The metering refers to the way in which the camera measures the 
quantity of light to set the exposure.
MJPEG (Motion JPEG)
A video format which is compressed as a JPEG image.
Noise
Misinterpreted pixels in a digital image that may appear as 
misplaced or random, bright pixels. Noise usually occurs when 
photos are shot with a high sensitivity or when a sensitivity is 
automatically set in a dark place.
OIS (Optical Image Stabilization)
This feature compensates in real-time for shaking and vibrating 
while shooting. There is no image degradation compared to 
Digital Image Stabilization feature.
Image sensor
The physical part of a digital camera that contains a photosite for 
each pixel in the image. Each photosite records the brightness of 
the light that strikes it during an exposure. Common sensor types 
are CCD (Charge-coupled Device) and CMOS (Complementary 
Metal Oxide Semiconductor).
ISO sensitivity
The sensitivity of the camera to light, based on the equivalent film 
speed used in a film camera. At higher ISO sensitivity settings, 
the camera uses a higher shutter speed, which can reduce blur 
caused by camera shake and low light. However, images with 
high sensitivity are more susceptible to noise.
JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)
A lossy method of compression for digital images. JPEG images 
are compressed to reduce their overall file size with minimal 
deterioration of the image resolution.
LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)
A visual display commonly used in consumer electronics. This 
display needs a separate backlight, such as CCFL or LED, to 
reproduce colors.
