SLR stands for single lens reflex, It refers to the way in which camera work. Other people refers SLR as DSLR with D being short for digital. Parallax is defined as a displacement or the difference within apparent position of an object which is viewed along the two points of the earth orbit and is measured using annual parallax .Image sensor refers to a sensor used for detecting as well as conveying information that is used in making of the image. Image compression refers to a process of converting image file to make sure that it does not consume more space that the original file.
It’s a type of compression method which is used for reducing the size of the image file without affecting the quality in a greater extent.JPEG is a format used to compress the File of image.TIFF refers to a computer file format that is used for storing copies of raster graphics among graphic artists and the publishing industry. In photography, raw is defined as a photographic shooting image using an uncompressed format known as raw. It contains fresh models that are used in capturing the sensor of the camera, and it is saved in proprietary file format specific to the manufacturing camera.
[ ] Reflections upon your weekly assignment:
The work was more of photography, the objects, and the tools needed towards the completion of the project as well as showing the process that the images undergo before it reaches out to the owner. The weekly assignment gives opportunities to the students who are willing to have their Photoshop since it explains how to go about it before the photo is ultimately made.

[ ] Define levels/histogram:___________________ [ ] Define tonal range:____________________ [ ] Define saturation:____________________ [ ] Define adjustment layer:____________________ [ ] Class notes/Reading notes:
Histogram is a graphical presentations of the total value of images .It is used in showing the amount of tones and particular the brightness that is found in the photograph that ranges from 0% brightness of 100% .Tonor range refers to the summation of tones shown in the images.
Saturation is the intensity of color. The more the saturation of the color, the more it turns to be vivid, and when the saturation is less, that color turns to be gray. Adjustment layers are a group of superuser, non-destructive images used for editing tools that add color as well as adjusting tonal in the image without necessarily changing its pixel.
[ ] Reflections upon your weekly assignment:
This week, the task brings a clear vision,how it can be presented in graphs; it shows how images can change its brightness from zero to a hundred percent. The assignment shows the tones that models have,the importance of using more saturation in pictures as well as showing tools that can be used in adjusting the tonal image. I feel like this weekly assignment is bringing a clear vision of how a photo develops from one stage to the final stage, and finally, it turns out to be attractive.

[ ] Define exposure:_____________________ [ ] Define shutter:_____________________ [ ] Define aperture:_____________________ [ ] Define shutter speed:____________________ [ ] Define shutter speed priority mode:________________ [ ] Define aperture priority mode:__________________ [ ] Define metering:_____________________ [ ] Define exposure compensation:_________________ [ ] Class notes/Reading notes:
Exposure is a unit used in measuring the total amount of lights which is allowed to reach the elcrtonic sensor in the process of taking a photography.Shutter is defined as a device which allows lights to pass through for a specific period ,exposing the film of photographic or a photosensitive digital sensor to the light inorder to capture a permanent image of a scence.Aperture refers to a space where lightpasses in an optical or on photographic instruments specific in opening variables where light enters into a camera.Shutter speed refers to the length of time that camera shutter takes to open inorder to expose light into camera sensor.Basically it is the duration that camera spents in takinh a photo.Shutter priority mode is a setting of camera that permit users to select specific shutter speed when camera adjust the aperture in ensuring that it has a correct exposure.Aperture priority mode is a setting in camera which allow the users to select specific value of aperture while camera select shutter speed towards matching results of proper exposure based on the lighting conditions.Metering is an instruments that is used to measure as well as keeping the records of quantity of something for instance miles used. Exposure compensation,is a method used in adjusting the indicated exposure by a photographic exposure meter through the consideration of factors that causes the indicated exposure which results to less-than-optimal-image.
This week the assignment enables students to understand the number of lights that are supposed to be used and within which duration. It shows the devices used in allowing needed light to pass through, the spaces required in photography, the different length required, as well as showing the specific speed necessary, an instrument used to measure the quality of a photo, and the camera used in making all this work successful. The weekly assignment enables us to understand how the images are created clearly and the process they pass by for them to be complete.

[ ] Define ISO:______________________ [ ] Define noise:______________________ [ ] Define focal length:____________________ [ ] Define plane of critical focus:__________________ [ ] Define depth of field:_____________________ [ ] Class notes/Reading notes:
ISO is used in measuring the sensitivity of the image sensor. In the photograph, noise is usually used in describing visual distortion.Noise is mostly high when one is shooting low light. Focallength refers to a distance between the lens and the sensor image at the time when subjects are focused, usually stated in millimeters. Plane critical focus refers to a plane where the lens is focused, and it is the are in a photograph where photographs are acceptably focused. The depth of field is the distance between the closest and the furthest object in the photo, which appears acceptably sharp.
[ ] Reflections upon your weekly assignment
Week four, in the most interestingpart, the weekly assignment introduces new concepts of the photographs.The assignment aimed to create awareness about the sensitivity of images as well as letting students be aware that noise can be made depending on the light used; that is when low light is used, there is more noise, and when high light is used, there is less noise. The assignment aimed at letting the students know that there is a need to consider the distance. The entire assignment was creating awareness to the students about the issues of photography as well as letting them the different procedures are applied in ensuring that the images come out clear.
