DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY TEXTBOOK WORKSHEET
(______/38 points):
Directions: Answer as many questions as you can on your own. Then use Digital Photography by Ciaglia
Chapter 2, Pages 12-19, 29, 38-39 to answer the rest.

continuously variable scale (the changes occur in smooth gradations).
9. The analog image has to be converted into a ________________form, called a bitmap image or
raster image, in order for the computer to be able to use it. To convert an _________________
image into digital form, the image is sampled at a series of positions to analyze and record the
brightness and color at each point.
10. Each position at which the image is sampled is recorded as a ______________. This word is short
for _________________.
11. The pixels that make up the image are arranged in a __________________, like the squares on a
sheet of graph paper.

13. What is a byte?
14. What is bit depth?
15. The technical quality of a digital image is determined by the number of ________________ and the
amount of information each pixel holds. The greater the number of pixels or the greater the
_______________ at the time an image is digitized, the smoother the gradation form one pixel to
another.
