Under Exposure
This refers to a film that doesn't receive enough light for proper exposure. This results in a loss of detail in the image's dark areas. The photos are often very dark and you can't make anything out in them.
Vignetting
Vignetting means the photo's edges or corners are dark because of underexposure. This happens because a filter, lens hood, filter or other attachment has partially blocked the camera's field of view. It also refers to a photo printing method in which the image's edges gradually fade.
