Digital Camera

When you hear the word Photography, the first thing that comes is a photo printout. Photography is an activity that results in the captured image of an object. Photography comes from the word "photos" and "grafos" from the Greek. Photos means light, while grafos means painting or writing.

From that sense, Photography can be defined as the process of painting or writing using the medium of light. In general terms, Photography is a process or method to produce an image or picture of an object that is recorded through the reflection of light. Reflected light is then the object on a light-sensitive medium.

Therefore, in its development, Photography is aided by a tool called the camera as a medium to generate the reflection of light on an object. Without light, the image can not be seen on the photo.

In principle, Photography is an activity to help focus light refraction, so that the reflected light can burn medium light catcher.

Medium that had been burned and then produce an identical image with light named lens. Medium combustion process itself is often burning luminitas size medium with the right light, so that it can produce photo-sized lens fitting.

To generate the appropriate light intensity in an image or photograph, use a measuring tool called light meter. Light meter serves as a measure of the intensity of illumination on the camera. After getting the right size and appropriate lighting, a photographer who is an expert in the field of Photography can adjust the intensity of light with several combinations of light.

The combination of light in Photography, there are several kinds, such as the combination of the ISO / ASA or ISO speed, aperture (aperture) and shutter speed (speed). This light combinations are often lumped together and produce other combinations, such as a combination of ISO, diaphragm and Speed is referred to as a display (exposure).
