  • 2. 

    One of the three basic color attributes.

    • Brightness

    • Hue

    • Sensor

    • Resolution

    • Pixel

    Correct Answer
    A. Hue
    Explanation
    Hue is one of the three basic color attributes, along with brightness and saturation. It refers to the dominant wavelength of light and determines the perceived color of an object. Hue is what allows us to distinguish between different colors such as red, blue, and green. It is an essential component in color theory and is used in various fields such as art, design, and psychology to create visual appeal and convey different emotions.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    The Difference between the brightest and the darkest portions in the picture.

    • Contrast Ration

    • Pixel

    • Brightness

    • Sync Generator

    • CMOS

    Correct Answer
    A. Contrast Ration
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Contrast Ratio." Contrast ratio refers to the difference between the brightest and darkest portions of a picture. It is a measure of the range of brightness levels that a display can produce. A higher contrast ratio indicates a wider range and better differentiation between light and dark areas, resulting in a more visually appealing and detailed image.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    The adjustment of the color circuits in the camera to produce a while color in lighting of various color temperature.

    • Hue

    • Resolution

    • Contrast Ratio

    • White Balance

    • Pixel

    Correct Answer
    A. White Balance
    Explanation
    White balance refers to the adjustment of the color circuits in a camera to produce a white color in lighting of various color temperatures. Different light sources emit light with different color temperatures, such as warm (yellowish) light from incandescent bulbs or cool (bluish) light from daylight. The white balance setting on a camera helps to ensure that white objects appear truly white in photographs or videos, regardless of the lighting conditions. By adjusting the color circuits, the camera can accurately reproduce colors and maintain a natural-looking image.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    A single imaging element that can be identified by a computer. Also the light-sensitive elements on a CCD that contain a charge.

    • Resolution

    • Saturation

    • Sensor

    • Pixel

    • Camcorder

    Correct Answer
    A. Pixel
    Explanation
    A pixel is a single imaging element that can be identified by a computer. It refers to the light-sensitive elements on a CCD (charge-coupled device) that contain a charge. In digital imaging, pixels are used to represent the smallest unit of an image, and they combine to form the overall resolution of the image.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    The CCD or CMOS imaging device in a video camera.

    • Sensor

    • Sync Generator

    • Resolution

    • Imaging Device

    • Camcorder

    Correct Answer
    A. Sensor
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Sensor". In a video camera, the CCD or CMOS imaging device is commonly referred to as the sensor. This sensor captures the light and converts it into an electrical signal, which is then processed to create the video image. The sensor plays a crucial role in determining the quality and clarity of the video footage captured by the camera.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    The color attribute that determines how dark or light a color appears on the monochrome television screen or how much light the color reflects. Also the luminance.

    • Hue

    • White Balance

    • Sensor

    • Brightness

    • Contrast Ratio

    Correct Answer
    A. Brightness
    Explanation
    Brightness refers to the attribute that determines how dark or light a color appears on a monochrome television screen or how much light the color reflects. It is also related to luminance.
