For example, a 2-megapixel camera of 20-micrometre-square pixels will have worse resolution than a 1-megapixel camera with 8-micrometre pixels, all else being equal. For resolution measurement, film manufacturers typically publish a plot of Response (%) vs. Spatial Frequency (cycles per millimeter). The plot is derived experimentally.
In microscopy, NA generally refers to object-space numerical aperture unless otherwise noted. In microscopy, NA is important because it indicates the resolving power of a lens. The size of the finest detail that can be resolved (the resolution) is proportional to λ / 2NA , where λ is the wavelength of the light. A lens with a larger ...
Depth: 1.7 in (43 mm) Weight. 0.240 kg (0.53 lb) The Coolpix P6000 is a digital camera introduced by the Nikon Corporation in August 2008. [1] The built-in GPS (to support geocoding photos automatically) is a first in its price-range. The Ethernet port is also an unusual feature, but the camera is configured to only allow access to Nikon's My ...
Angular resolution. A series of images representing the magnification of M87* with an angular size of some microarcseconds, comparable to viewing a tennis ball on the Moon (magnification from top left corner counter−clockwise to the top right corner). Angular resolution describes the ability of any image-forming device such as an optical or ...
The N-STORM super-resolution microscope system combines “Stochastic Optical Reconstruction Microscopy” technology, licensed from Harvard University, with Nikon's Eclipse Ti to provide a resolution that is 10 times greater than that of conventional optical microscopes. that is 10 times greater than that of conventional optical microscopes.
The most commonly used definition of crop factor is the ratio of a 35 mm frame's diagonal (43.3 mm) to the diagonal of the image sensor in question; that is, . Given the same 3:2 aspect ratio as 35mm's 36 mm × 24 mm area, this is equivalent to the ratio of heights or ratio of widths; the ratio of sensor areas is the square of the crop factor.
Airy disk captured by 2000 mm camera lens at f/25 aperture. Image size: 1×1 mm. In optics, the Airy disk (or Airy disc) and Airy pattern are descriptions of the best- focused spot of light that a perfect lens with a circular aperture can make, limited by the diffraction of light. The Airy disk is of importance in physics, optics, and astronomy.
A 1951 USAF resolution test chart is a microscopic optical resolution test device originally defined by the U.S. Air Force MIL-STD-150A standard of 1951. The design provides numerous small target shapes exhibiting a stepped assortment of precise spatial frequency specimens. It is widely used in optical engineering laboratory work to analyze and ...
