Everything about Optical resolution
Ability of an imaging system to resolve detail
Optical resolution is the resolved detail of an imaging system by scale. An imaging system may have many individual components, including one or more lenses, and/or recording and display components. Each of these contributes to the optical resolution of the system; the environment in which the imaging is done often is a further important factor. Wikipedia →
