The first known practical sensitometer, which allowed measurements of the speed of photographic materials, was invented by the Polish engineer Leon Warnerke [3] – pseudonym of Władysław Małachowski (1837–1900) – in 1880, among the achievements for which he was awarded the Progress Medal of the Photographic Society of Great Britain in 1882.
The Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) was a space telescope for infrared light designed and operated by the European Space Agency (ESA), in cooperation with ISAS (now part of JAXA) and NASA. The ISO was designed to study infrared light at wavelengths of 2.5 to 240 micrometres and operated from 1995 to 1998.
ISO: A system for quantifying the sensitivity ("speed") of a photographic emulsion, or a solid-state digital-camera's image sensor, to visible light. Normally followed by a numerical value, e.g.: ISO 100 or ISO 64/19°. Developed from the ASA and the DIN systems by the International Organization for Standardization. [4] JPEG
Sunlit subject shot on a digital camera set to ISO 100, exposed at f/8 at 1/400 second which is the same exposure value as f/16 for 1/100 second, the recommended "sunny 16" exposure. In photography, the sunny 16 rule (also known as the sunny f /16 rule) is a method of estimating correct daylight exposures without a light meter. Apart from the ...
The data inside the ISO image will be structured according to the file system that was used on the optical disc from which it was created. ISO images can be created from optical discs by disk imaging software, or from a collection of files by optical disc authoring software, or from a different disk image file by means of conversion. Software ...
In April 1983, ISO started to work to add photo quality graphics to text terminals. In the mid-1980s, both the CCITT (now ITU-T) and ISO had standardization groups for image coding: CCITT Study Group VIII (SG8) – Telematic Services and ISO TC97 SC2 WG8 – Coding of Audio and Picture Information.
Eclipse photography involves the photographic capturing of solar eclipses and lunar eclipses. This niche field combines elements of astronomy , astrophotography , and sometimes travel photography , as photographers often venture to specific locations to capture these celestial events.
The photography department of the Indonesia WikiProject aims to assemble a collection of high-quality photographs for use in Indonesia articles; both through obtaining existing public domain or free-license photographs, and by creating new ones as needed.
