What does 'sRGB' vs 'Adobe RGB' refer to in digital photography?
Answer: Two different color spaces with different gamut (range of reproducible colors)
sRGB and Adobe RGB are color spaces defining different gamuts; Adobe RGB encompasses a wider range of colors, particularly in greens and cyans, suited for print workflows.
What is 'content-aware fill' in Adobe Photoshop?
Answer: A tool that intelligently fills a selected area with surrounding image content to remove objects seamlessly
Content-Aware Fill analyzes surrounding pixels to intelligently fill selected areas, making it possible to remove unwanted objects while seamlessly blending with the background.
What does 'DPI' stand for in photography and printing?
Answer: Dots Per Inch — a measure of print resolution
DPI (Dots Per Inch) measures the number of ink dots a printer lays down per inch, determining the printed image's resolution and sharpness.
What is 'tone mapping' in HDR photography?
Answer: The process of compressing a very wide HDR tonal range into a displayable range for standard monitors or prints
Tone mapping compresses the extremely wide dynamic range of an HDR image into a range that standard displays can show, deciding how bright and dark extremes are represented.
What is 'batch processing' in photo editing workflows?
Answer: Applying the same edits, export settings, or actions to multiple images simultaneously
Batch processing applies a preset set of adjustments, actions, or export settings to many images at once, dramatically speeding up repetitive editing tasks.
What does 'PPI' (pixels per inch) measure in digital photography?
Answer: The number of pixels displayed per inch on a screen or in a digital image
PPI measures the pixel density of a digital image or display — higher PPI means more pixels in the same physical space, resulting in sharper detail.
