Subjective description of an image's focus and resolution.
Is a user menu adjustment that determines how edgy the picture looks. Proper sharpness will result in a smooth transition from dark to white with no ringing. This frequently requires service mode adjustment to remove edge enhancements.
The subjective impression of the amount of detailed information provided in a picture image.
Sharpness adjustment clarifies pictures details and border areas.
noun: the degree to which clear, distinguishable details of the subject are rendered in a photographic image
The degree to which an image appears to be in focus.
A control on televisions that creates the effect of greater resolution by accentuating light to dark transitions. Setting the sharpness too high actually degrades the picture by exaggerating the transitions. Signal-to-Noise Ratio - also S/N. Measured in decibels, this is the difference between the signal strength a system reproduces compared to the strength or amplitude of its background noise.
The degree of clarity and fine detail in a photograph. Sharpness is controlled by many things including; pixel size of sensor film size ISO Camera shake Lees resolving power Output size viewing distance
a quick and penetrating intelligence; "he argued with great acuteness"; "I admired the keenness of his mind"
The ability to reproduce minute details of an original. The sharpness is related to the resolution of a photograph. The sharpness of a digital image can be manipulated artificially.
refers to whether an image appears to be in focus.
an image-editing technique that accentuates the relief between shades, decreases blurring, and makes the image appear more defined. Also increases the file size.
A photographic term for perfectly defined detail in an original, negative and reproduction.
Visual sensation of the abruptness of an edge. Clarity.
This is the control of fine detail within a picture. This feature was originally introduced into color TV sets that used notch filter decoders. This filter took away all high frequency detail in the black and white region of the picture. The sharpness control attempted to put some of that detail back in the picture. Sharpness controls are mostly superfluous in today's high-end TVs. The only logical requirement for it nowadays is on a VHS machine.

A term used to describe the ability of a lens to render fine detail clearly; dependent on the contrast and resolution of a lens and varies with the f/stop; in general, a lens is sharpest at the middle apertures. Also technically can be explained as clarity of the photographic image in terms of focus and contrast. Largely subjective but can be measured to some extent by assessing adjacency effects, i.e. the abruptness of the change in density between adjoining areas of different tone value.
An image's degree of clarity in terms of focus and contrast.
A reference to whether an image appears to be in focus.
The quality of details in photo-quality output.
The clarity of detail in a photo.
The amount of detail that can be perceived in an image. Definition of an image in terms of focus and contrast. The combination of resolution -typically measured in terms of the number of distinguishable line pairs per millimeter- and acutance -the power to resolve detail in the transition of edges.
The degree of clarity in a photographic image.
The degree to which clear, distinguishable details of the subject are rendered in a photographic negative or print.
