Digital Video: A picture that appears too dark because not enough light got to the imaging system.
The condition of exposing film or an image sensor to less light than required to make an accurate exposure.
Failure to expose correctly because not enough light has struck the film or sensor to faithfully render the color and brightness values. Underexposed pictures are dark; the more the underexposure the darker they become. Color also suffers when film is underexposed, although a slight amount of underexposure can be used to increase color saturation in certain color slide films.
When a shot does not receive enough light with the result that the scene is too dark.
the act of exposing film to too little light or for too short a time
Underexposure occurs when light sensitive material has not been exposed enough.
A circumstance where too little light reaches the film resulting in a thin negative, muddy looking print or a dark slide.
Happens when insufficient light reaches the photographic emulsion, may be caused by accident or design in order to control density and contrast of an image. Underexposure causes too little silver to be deposited on the film, creating thin negatives which are difficult to print from.
A photosensitive material that has received too little light resulting in a dark print lacking detail.
A picture that appears too dark because insufficient light was delivered to the imaging system. Opposite of overexposure.
Shooting a scene in which there is not enough light for the film stock's emulsion to handle creating a darker image than desired.
A condition in which too little light reaches the film, producing a thin negative or a dark reversal or print.
An inadequate amount of light from the lens being transmitted to the camera's target resulting in a dark picture specifically, a loss of shadow detail and a compressed gray scale.
Not allowing enough light in to the film or image sensor to render an image that is as the eye sees it. Will produce dark or grainy photographs.
Photograph that appears too dark or lacks shadow detail because too little light reached the film or print.
An image is underexposed when the film receives too little light for proper exposure. Underexposure results in loss of detail in the subject's dark areas, which can be almost completely black and featureless.
When the film has not received enough light for a correct exposure. Underexposure makes negatives look "thin" (light), which produces murky, grainy prints. Underexposed slides look dark and muddy.
Underexposing negative material results in insufficient density and the loss of tonality, especially at the low end of the tonal scale. In a polymer plate, which functions on a positive-to-positive principle, underexposure results in an overdeveloped, dark plate, on which the shadows are mere unstructured hollows.
Exposing the film to less light than is needed to render the scene as the eye sees it. Results in a too dark photograph.
A photo taken in a low-light situation, that tends to be dark and lack detail and sharpness. Color information exists but the image is too dark or muddy to see it clearly.
Improper exposure causing an image to look too dark. There is a loss of detail in dark areas.
A condition in which too little light reaches the film, producing a thin negative, a dark slide, or a muddy-looking print.
