BITMAP VECTOR
Bitmap images are exactly what their name
says they are: a collection of bits that form
an image. The image consists of a matrix of
individual dots (or pixels) that all have their
own color (described using bits, the smallest
possible units of information for a computer).
GIF: mainly used for internet graphics
JPEG: or rather the JFIF file format,
which is mainly used for internet
graphics
PDF: versatile file format that can
contain just about any type of data
including complete pages, it is not yet
widely used to exchange just images
Produce larger files sizes
Have restrictions in regard to
alteration and modifications such as
scale, image distortion, and format
conversion
There is common appearance of
blocked or jagged edges and
blurriness in the image
Vector graphics are images that
are completely described using
mathematical definitions. The
image below shows the principle.
To the left, you see the image itself
and to the right, you see the
actual lines that make up the
drawing.
EPS: the most popular file
format to exchange vector
drawings even though PDF
is quickly gaining ground.
PDF: a versatile file format
that can contain just about
any type of data including
complete pages.
PSD: the native file format
of Adobe Photoshop.
They are not photorealistic
Filled with solid or gradient
colours but lack in depth
and appereance

2. Explain briefly terms of photography below:-

Resolution
Resolution is the number of pixels (individual points of color) contained on a display monitor,
expressed in terms of the number of pixels on the horizontal axis and the number on the vertical
axis. The sharpness of the image on a display depends on the resolution and the size of the
monitor. The same pixel resolution will be sharper on a smaller monitor and gradually lose
sharpness on larger monitors because the same number of pixels are being spread out over a
larger number of inches.

b. functional parameters
The technical basis for photography is the SETTINGS and know the most important technical
term in photography for understanding some more image parameters and improving digital
camera image quality.
1-Black and white: This is a standard feature in digital cameras and dSLR cameras. This color
scheme does have a charm attached to it but it is often overused. It is always a best idea to take a
color photograph and then convert it into grayscale on computer. You can increase contrast to
improve detailing in grayscale images.
2-Contrast: Contrast increases the glowing element of a color in terms of its brightness. A high
contrast in an image makes the subject in focus to stand out against a background or it brings into
focus a wide array of subjects such as photo of a bazaar. The better the contrast, better are the
details brought out.
3-Tone: The tone in an image sets the mood of the image. The tone could be warm or cool. A
warm tone tends to be more redder with predominant colors red, yellow and orange. A cool tone
tends to be bluer with soft and mellow colors. Warm tone is considered masculine where as cool
tone is considered as feminine.
4-Hue: Some dSLR cameras have hue option, which shifts all colors by a certain degree. You
can do this using an image editing software also. This feature can be used for dreamlike digital
photography to match with the tone of the event.
5-Sharpness: It is also called as acutance. It is a measure of the sharpness with which a film can
imitate the edge of an object. A greater sharpness gives a grainier image while a reduced
sharpness gives a washed out appearance. Sharp images are appealing in close-ups whereas it
looks odd in portraits.
6-Sepia: In olden photographs, a chemical was used to make the photographs last longer. This
generates the sepia tone in photographs. Modern digital cameras and dSLRs have this feature
readymade in them.
7-Saturation: Saturation is the intensity of a particular color. An image with color saturation as
zero is a gray-scale image. Some digital cameras have a high contrast setting that increases the
saturation of all colors in an image. This attribute can be used in Photoshop also. Some image
viewers also allow this option.
c. digital shutter, digital zoom vs optical zoom
A shutter is a device that allows light to pass for a determined period, exposing photographic
film or a light-sensitive electronic sensor to light in order to capture a permanent image of a
scene. A shutter can also be used to allow pulses of light to pass outwards, as seen in a movie
projector or a signal lamp. A shutter of variable speed is used to control exposure time of the
film. The shutter is so constructed that it automatically closes after a certain required time
interval. The speed of the shutter is controlled by a ring outside the camera, on which various
timings are marked.

digital zoom vs optical zoom

DIGITAL ZOOM OPTICAL ZOOM

Digital zoom is an invention of digital video
cameras. It is not uncommon to see digital
video cams with 300x digital zoom
some cameras offer a digital zoom, which is
simply some in-camera image processing.
When you use a digital zoom, the camera
enlarges the image area at the center of the
frame and trims away the outside edges of
the picture. The result is the same as when
you open an image in your photo-editing
program, crop away the edges of the picture,
and then enlarge the remaining portion of
the photo.
digital zoom means that the microchip
inside the camera blows up the incoming
image without actually moving the lens
optical zooms make images bigger and just
as clear
Optical zoom uses the optics (lens) of the
camera to bring the subject closer
If taking a lot of photos from far away
subjects is important to you, be sure that the
camera you buy has an optical zoom. An
optical zoom is a true zoom lens, like the
zoom lens youd use on a film camera. They
produce much better-quality images.
optical zoom means that the lens moves in
and out to make the incoming image bigger
or smaller when it hits the CCD
digital zooms make images bigger and
more blurred

d. rule of third
The Rule of Thirds is perhaps the most well-known rule of photographic composition.The
Rule of Thirds one of the first things that budding digital photographers learn about in classes
on photography and rightly so as it is the basis for well balanced and interesting shots.
e. Digital SLR

SLR is an abbreviation: it stands for Single Lens Reflex.

With an SLR camera, you see exactly what the lens sees

You can change the lens on a digital SLR

Digital SLRs have large image sensors that produce high-quality photos

An SLR has a near-zero lag time, and is ideal for action photography

3.Describe the usage of typeface:

A typeface is a design for a set of printer or display font s, each for a set of characters, in a
number of specific sizes. Since outline fonts such as TrueType and Type 1 are scalable, a
computer typeface designer must anticipate the possibility of the design being scaled through a
range of sizes.Typefaces often come as a family of typefaces, with individual typefaces for italic,
bold, and other variations in the main design.
