高画質銀塩コンパクトカメラGRシリーズのデジタルカメラ版といえるモデルで、低歪な28mm相当(35mmフィルム換算)の単焦点広角レンズ、7枚羽根絞り、マグネシウム合金ボディ等のコンパクトデジタルカメラとしては異例の構成を採用。コストや利便性の追求が最優先されるコンパクトデジタルカメラの中にあって、高画質で趣味性の高いカメラとして高い評価を受け、発売以来2年近くにわたってロング・セラーを続けている。
Monochrome comes from the two Greek words mono (μoνο, meaning "only" or "alone"), and chroma (χρωμα, meaning "colour"). A monochromatic object has a single colour. In physics, the word is used more generally to refer to electromagnetic radiation of a single wavelength. In the physical sense, no real source of electromagnetic radiation is purely monochromatic, since that would require a wave of infinite duration. Even sources such as lasers have some narrow range of wavelengths (known as the linewidth or bandwidth of the source) within which they operate. In practice, filtered light, diffraction grating separated light and laser light are all routinely referred to as monochromatic. Often light sources can be compared and one be labeled as "more monochromatic" (in a similar usage as monodispersity). And a device which isolates light sources of a narrow bandwidth are called monochromators, even though the bandwidth is often explicitly specified, and thus a collection of wavelengths is understood. For an image, the term monochrome is usually taken to mean the same as black-and-white or, more likely, grayscale, but may also be used to refer to other combinations containing only two colors, such as green-and-white or green-and-black. It may also refer to sepia or cyanotype images. In computing, monochrome has two meanings:
* it may mean having only one color which is either on or off,
* allowing shades of that color, although the latter is more correctly known as grayscale.
A monochrome computer display is able to display only a single color, often green, amber, red or white, and often also shades of that color. The monochromatic scheme should be used with caution when designing a space. Certain monochromatic color concepts will appear rather monotonous, and some variety in the intensities, textures and forms should be used to give life to the interior. In film photography, monochrome is the use of black and white film. In digital photography, monochrome is the capture of only shades of black by the sensor. Originaly, all photography was done in monochrome until the invention of color film plates in the early 20th century.
