An Introduction to Digital
Photography Fundamentals

This document explains digital terminology for the
professional photographer who is new to computers

Aperture is a powerful digital photography application designed to help you produce the
best images possible. However, many factors outside of Aperture can affect the quality of
your images. Being mindful of all these factors can help prevent undesirable results.
The following chapters explain how your camera captures a digital image, how images
are displayed onscreen and in print, and how cameras, displays, and printers measure
image resolution.

The closest focusing range of Hasselblad lenses normally corresponds to an image scale of 0.1- 0.15 (subject field
width 37 – 55 cm). A few lenses have a slightly larger maximum image scale.
The limit for the shortest focusing distance for a specific lens type is set with regard to both mechanical and image
performance effects. A long focusing mechanism can be heavy and bulky. In addition, the lens performance is nor-
mally optimised for objects at infinity. At shorter focusing distances, the image quality will normally suffer unless
the lens is optimised for such distances.
USING ADDITIONAL ACCESSORIES
For larger image scales than provided by the lens itself there are various options:
* Use an extension tube (or bellows extension)
* Use a teleconverter
* Combine above accessories in an optimal way
Extension tubes and bellows move the lens further from the film plane thus allowing photography at closer dis-
tances. Teleconverters increase the focal length of the lens thus allow covering a smaller area from the same dis-
tance. Both accessories require an increase in the exposure which need to be considered when the meter reading
is made with a handheld meter. An adjustment is not necessary with a TTL metering system (meter prism finder or
metering system in the 200 series cameras) since the light is measured through the accessory.
For best image quality, use Planar, Makro-Planar or Sonnar lens types especially for higher magnifications. While
retro focus type lenses, such as the Distagons, are not designed for close-up photography, the newer types with FLE
adjustment produce good image quality and can therefore be considered for general close-up work especially when
the lens aperture is closed down. Close-up (Proxar) lenses also allow photography at closer distances but only with
a reduction in image quality. They are therefore not recommended and are no longer made for Hasselblad.
The recommended combinations of lens and accessory for maximum image quality over the entire image area when
photographing flat sujects are shown in the table below. Please remeber that the recommendations are based upon
very strict requirements for image sharpness over the full film format. For some applications the use of wide-angle
lenses close-up will provide intentional creative effects.

of mine). This is due to a plastic pin snapping (not visible from the outside, even with the lens off the camera). It is possible to send the camera to
Canon for repair. The cost is usually something like US $200. Considering what a new camera body costs this is not a cheap option for an old
camera. If you’re camera is still under warranty Canon should repair it for free since it’s a design fault on their part.

Digital Photography. This glossary is intended for beginners therefore some of these
terms have been simplified. Note that these definitions of a general nature; your
equipment may have features that work differently or are omitted – you will need to
refer to the manual for your camera. If you start reading more about the subject there
are many more terms that you will meet and more detailed technical descriptions

at an extraordinary rate. At present, the use of digital photography in dentistry has no set nomenclature,
procedure codes, standards or continuity. The focus of this Technical Report is to provide basic
information on the use of digital photography in dentistry and to help facilitate: 1). The appropriate
selection of the necessary equipment; 2). Consistent communication with and interoperability of digital
images and the information the contained therein. The information provided will address the digital
imaging needs of the various dental specialties, the general dental practitioner, other health care
providers, the patient and any interested third parties such as insurance carriers, prosthetic and
pathology laboratories. These discussions take into consideration the interoperability required to insure
proper identification of the image, exporting and importing of the image and database management of
the image

You get a chance to photograph animals from all over
the world. Many zoos today exhibit the birds and animals in large, open areas that are similar to the
animal’s natural environment. The methods used to keep the animals captive vary, depending on the
design of the exhibit and the animal’s agility. Sometimes there will be nothing between you and the
photo subject. At other times there will be fencing or glass (actually Lexan or similar plastic) panels. All
of these exhibit methods present some kind of a problem to the photographer

In The Intelligent Eye, David Perkins proposes doing a “seeing,” or writingfor 10 minutes a stream-of-conscious response to art7 (p. 37). Part of this processinvolves asking yourself questions that focus more and more on specific attributes ofthe artwork, describing what you see—from the literal subject to the formal qualities—and then interpreting what you see. As Perkins says, “By looking longer and in morerefined, informed, systematic ways, we can come to see what at first we missed.”8 Thisapproach allows us to use our intuitive, emotional, and cognitive resources to respondto art, all the while guided by interpretative questions that take us further into theartwork. It can make the experience of looking at art richer.

Just as we youngsters were opening ourtreasures Santa left; a parent would enter the room and turn on the moviecamera topped with bright blinding lights. In the past it was quite an ordeal totake home movies. But, despite the blinding light, we would dutiful parade infront of the camera with our new treasures. Now, our parents were not experts in movie camera technology and certainlynone of us were trained on how to act for filmmaking. However, we managed tocreate some wonderful and memorable documents not only of our family, but ofan era in human history. In watching those home movies over the years, theparental genius as a cinematographer became more obvious.

If you have wanted one, but no nothing about them, have no fear; there are plenty of places to learn all you need to know. You can learn about the different types of digital cameras, how their features work, and which styles are probably what you should keep an eye out for. When it comes to the world of digital cameras, there are a ton of choices, so it’s best to at least know what you are looking for.
There are, basically, a few different categories that digital cameras fall into, including: amateur, professional-amateur and professional. The sizes, materials and prices of every digital camera can vary, depending on your personal preference. The camera you end up buying will most likely depend on the function it will serve, who it is for and the budget you must follow.
If you consider yourself a professional digital photographer, you will want to be looking for a SLR style digital camera. These types of cameras are absolutely more than just a couple of dollars, but the amenities they offer are well worth the money! SLR style digital cameras offer many features, including: manual controls and settings, various shutter speeds and the ability to change lenses.
The memory storage size will also be larger and will begin anywhere from 4 megapixels and up. These types of digital cameras will obviously be a little harder to learn to use, but once you do, you will love the flexibility that they offer!
