Is an electromagnetic energy that travels in a form of a wave with the speed of 186, 000 miles per second.

A light tight box designed to block unwanted or unnecessary light from reaching the sensitized material.

Is the light gathering mechanism of the camera that collect the reflected light coming from the object to form the image.

Composed of a highly sensitized chemical compound which is capable of being transformed into an image through the action of light and with some chemical processes.

Is the process necessary for reducing silver halides into a form so as a latent image and a positive image be made resulting to what we called Photograph.

Is defined as an electromagnetic energy with the speed of 186,00 miles per second. Its wave travel is said to be characterized in certain extent based on velocity, wavelength and frequency of the number of vibration of the wave per second.

Is a form of energy, commonly refers to electromagnetic radiation that can be detected by human eye.

Of visible light as measured in nanometers (nm) where 1 nm = 1 billionth of a meter (10-9 meters). ✓ The wavelenght of visible light is between 400-700 nm. ✓ The combined effect of the complete range of radiation between 400-700 nm appears as white light to human eye.

Is the type of light that produces different sensation when reach the human eye. It is the of light, which is capable of exciting the retina of the human eye. (400-700 millimicron or nanometer)

Lights in which their wavelength are either too short or too long to excite the retina human eye i.e. X-ray, Ultra-violet and Infra-red lights.

This is electromagnetic energy having wavelength that range from 1-30 millimicrons. Object, is opaque (light cannot pass through ex. metal, wall, etc.) as seen by the naked can be penetrated rays

Ranges from about 200 to 400 millimicrons wavelength. This ray of light is also invisible like the infrared. Its position falls between X-ray and Visible wavelength. Designed to photograph fingerprints in multi colored background, documents that are altered, decipherment of erase writing and developing invisible writings

Produces different sensations when they strike the human eye. The color of the different objects are usually mixture of light, of various wavelenght, and not a special color.

Is not a color or any kind of red. It is invisible ray and detected by the skin as

It is the deflection or bouncing back of light when it hits a surface.

Is the angle between a light ray and the normal when the ray leaves the surface

Is the angle between a light ray and the normal when the ray Hits the surface

The bending of light when passing from one medium to another.

The bending of light when it hits a sharp edge of an opaque object. It is also described as the apparent bending of waves around small obstacles and the spreading out of waves past small openings.

The nature of light to be absorbed in the process of dark sufaces. Example: Wearing a black shirt on a sunny day makes you feel hotter because the dark fabric absorbs more light (and heat).

Is when the light hits a transparent glass which would allow the light to pass through medium

A lighting condition wherein objects in open space cast a deep on uniform shadow.

A lighting condition wherein the objects in open space cast a transparent shadow

A lighting condition wherein the objects in open space cast no shadow

Can be used to enhance or replace natural light, such as during hazy or dull outdoor conditions.

These lights provide a steady stream of illumination, making them suitable for situations where constant lighting is needed.

Tube-shaped lamps coated with fluorescent powder. They emit a consistent, diffused light.// DIFFUSED LIGHT USED IN HOMES

Bulbs with a filament inside that glows when electricity passes through it. These produce a warm, yellow light.// HOUSEHOLD LIGHTING

High-intensity bulbs designed to provide powerful, focused light. They are used in studio settings.

These lights are used for brief, intense bursts of illumination, typically for capturing fast-moving subjects or creating specific effects.

Produce light through a chemical reaction. They are no longer widely used but were once common for quick, bright flashes.

Produce light using a high-voltage electrical discharge through a gas-filled bulb.

A cube with multiple flash bulbs for broad, even lighting.// MOSTLY OBSOLETE

A flash that automatically fires in sync with the main flash of the camera or another flash unit.// ADDITIONAL LIGHT

A circular light that surrounds the camera lens, providing even illumination with minimal shadows.// MACRO PHOTOGRAPHY

Additional flash units that can be attached to a camera or used separately to provide extra lighting.

Requires the photographer to manually set the exposure based on the distance and light Conditions.// Provides full control

Uses sensors to adjust light output based on the distance to the subject. Automatically adjusts the flash duration and intensity.// CONTROL AMOUNT OF LIGHT

A flash unit integrated into the camera body.// CONVENIENT FOR QUICK

A flash unit that is placed away from the camera to create more dynamic lighting effects. The shutter speed that is compatible with the flash to ensure that the entire image is evenly// ALLOWS MORE CREATIVE
