Frankly, our engineers had enough. Their spudgers were getting soft; we needed to do something that would present a *challenge* and get them sharp again -- none of the take-off-a-display-to-find-a- motherboard baloney. We knew exactly where to turn. We've done a set of Nikon D70 repair guides in the past, and we saw how difficult it was to take apart an SLR. What better way to infuse a bit of fun in our teardowns than taking apart another SLR? So, in the name of science and all that is right in this world, let's see what's inside the brand-new Nikon D5100!

Bokeh has been defined as "the way the lens renders out-of-focus points of light".[6] However, differences in lens aberrations and aperture shape cause some lens designs to blur the image in a way that is pleasing to the eye, while others produce blurring that is unpleasant or distracting—"good" and "bad" bokeh, respectively.[2] Bokeh occurs for parts of the scene that lie outside the Coarse bokeh on a photo shot with an 85 mm lens and 70 mm entrance pupil diameter, which depth of field.

Bokeh is often most visible around small background highlights, such as specular reflections and light sources, which is why it is often associated with such areas.[2] However, bokeh is not limited to highlights; blur occurs in all out-of-focus regions of the image.

  • Color Rendering Analysis in Nikon D90 Digital Still Camera
    International Journal of Applied Science and Technology Vol. 5, No. 5; October 2015 Color Rendering Analysis in Nikon D90 Digital Still Camera Reem El Asaleh Michael Wu Ryerson University, School of Graphic Communications Management 350 Victoria Street, Toronto, ON M5B 2K3 Abstract The convenient use of digital cameras along with the affordable prices and high image quality allows using the min many fields. The quality of the digital image reproduction would differ based on the camera hardware performance and the applied image color processing. This paper will focus on evaluating the variances of color rendering process of raw image data between in-camera Nikon D90 processing and Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) deferred processing of a Color Checker® target image through colorimetric analysis. Results from Color Checker analyses were used as reference data in attempt to reverse-engineer D90 color reproduction with adjustment tools available to ACR processing. ACR processing experiments referred to color measurements and Exchangeable Image File format (Exif) metadata to ultimately reduce average color differences between ACR and D90 processing from 8ΔE*ab to nearly2.5ΔE*ab developing more consistent reproduction between the workflows. This analysis provides digital photo reproduction insights for premedia technicians, photographers, and color scientists. Keywords: digital camera, color image processing, raw, Adobe Camera Raw, Nikon D90, in-camera processing 1. Introduction The outcome of digital photography is affected by many complex factors including optical and mechanical conditions during scene capture, electronic color image processing, and final viewing situation (Adams J.et.al., 1998, Guntruk et.al., 2005, Toader, 2013 and Fraser, 2004).
