The Chinese word "摄像" is composed of two characters: "摄" and "像". The character "摄" means "to take" or "to capture", while the character "像" means "image" or "likeness". Together, the two characters mean "to take an image" or "to capture a likeness". This is a perfect description of the process of photography, which is why the word "摄像" is used to refer to photography in Chinese.The word "摄像" is also used to refer to videography, which is the process of capturing moving images. This is because videography is simply an extension of photography, and the same basic principles apply to both.The word "摄像" is a relatively new word in Chinese, having only been coined in the early 20th century. However, it has quickly become one of the most commonly used words in the Chinese language, as photography and videography have become increasingly popular.
