distances.

A

TELEPHOTO LENS

27
Q

Lenses that enlarges object and magnify to 9x.

A

MACRO LENS

28
Q

Lens which commonly used in regular photography.

A

NORMAL LENS

29
Q

It can photograph from the shortest to the longest distance.

A

ZOOM LENS

30
Q

Transforms the latent image into a visible image, makes this permanent and renders it in sensitive to light.

A

PHOTOGRAPHIC PROCESSING

31
Q

A photographic bag
specifically designed to be light-proof while in
use.

A

CHANGING BAG

32
Q

It is a room that can be made completely dark to allow the processing of light sensitive
photographic material, including photographic film and photographic paper.

A

DARK ROOM

33
Q

A light-tight
container used for developing film.

A

DEVELOPING TANK

34
Q

The film clips to the center of
the reel and is gently rolled onto
the reel in complete darkness.

A

STAINLESS STEEL REEL

35
Q
A
36
Q

The film is loaded from the outside
and then wound onto the reel by
rotating the reel with a back-and-
forth motion.

A

PLASTIC REEL

37
Q

One or more chemicals that convert the latent
image to a visible image.

A

DEVELOPER

38
Q

The most important compound in a developer and an organic compound which actually makes the latent image visible.

A

DEVELOPING AGENT

39
Q

A chemical used for processing black-
and-white photographic films, plates, and paper. It is used to neutralize the alkaline developer.

A

STOP BATH

40
Q

A mix of chemicals used in the final step in the photographic
processing of film or paper.

A

FIXER

41
Q

An apparatus used for making contact
prints, having a frame for holding
printing paper and negative together
and a light source for making an
exposure.

A

CONTACT PRINTER

42
Q

It is a photographic image produced by laying the negative, typically a negative, directly against photographic paper and exposing the paper to light.

A

CONTACT PRINTING

43
Q

A card of other opaque object is held between the enlarger lens and the photographic paper so as to block light from only a portion of the image intended to be lightened.

A

DODGING

44
Q

It is the elimination of some part of the negative which are not to include in positive.

A

CROPPING

45
Q

This is where a portion of a print is too bright after the main exposure.

A

BURNING

46
Q

The higher the head the bigger the size of the image and vice versa.

A

ENLARGING

47
Q

Final stage in making photograph.

A

PRINT MAKING

48
Q

Electromagnetic spectrum from about 400 nanometers to 1 nanometer. Provides more details to an injured area as well as the revealing bruises and scars and to detect alterations of documents.

A

ULTRAVIOLET PHOTOGRAPHY

49
Q

Uses in Law enforcement:
for photographic enhancement of rashes and other skin disorders; and
for detecting alterations in documents.

A
