EPP
- Enhanced Parallel Port - the newer hi-speed, bidirectional
printer port on modern computers. Some older digicams
and scanners use the EPP port to transfer data.
ERI-JPEG
- Extended Range Imaging Technology, a new file format
used in Kodak professional digital cameras. This proprietary
technology offers an innovative image file format
similar to a JPEG, but with the dynamic range and
colour gamut information of raw DCR camera files.
Extended Range Imaging Technology files allow you
to easily open, edit, and print JPEG files within
your JPEG workflow. Your JPEG files are captured directly
in the camera. With ERI, you'll have the extensive
editing, colour balance, and colour compensation capabilities
of RAW digital negatives for applying to your JPEG
files.
E-TTL
- Canon's Evaluative-TTL exposure system that uses
a brief pre-flash before the main flash to calculate
the exposure index.
EV
- Exposure Value, a very complex thing but in the
digicam world it usually means the ability to override
the auto exposure system to lighten or darken an image.
EVF
- Electronic ViewFinder, a small colour LCD with a
magnified lens that functions as an eye level viewfinder.
Usually found on video camcorders but they have been
showing up on super-zoom digicams where optical viewfinders
are impractical. (Canon Pro90, Fuji 2800Z, Olympus
C-2100, Nikon Coolpix 5700).
EXIF
- EXIF (Exchangeable Image File format) refers to
the embedded camera and exposure information that
a digital camera puts in the header of the JPG files
it creates. Many graphic programs (Photoshop, ThumbsPlus,
Qimage Pro, CameraAid) can read and display this information.
Exif
Print - Exif Print (Exif 2.2) is a new worldwide
printer independent standard. Under Exif 2.2, the
digital still camera can record data tags for specific
camera settings and functions such as whether the
flash was on or off, if the camera was in landscape,
portrait or night scene mode, etc. Referencing some
or all of this information, an Exif Print compatible
application can process digital camera images intelligently
based on specific camera settings and the shooting
environment.
Exposure
- The amount of light that reaches the image sensor
and is controlled by a combination of the lens aperture
and shutter speed.
Exposure
Bracketing - the camera automatically takes
a series of 3 or 5 pictures and slightly varies the
EV for each frame. This insures that at least one
of the pictures will be as close to perfectly exposed
as possible.
Exposure
Compensation - Lighten or darken the image
by overriding the exposure system. Also known as EV
Compensation.
