Optical resolutionOptical resolution describes the ability of an imaging system to resolve detail, in the object that is being imaged. An imaging system may have many individual components, including one or more lenses, and/or recording and display components. Each of these contributes (given suitable design, and adequate alignment) to the optical resolution of the system; the environment in which the imaging is done often is a further important factor. Resolution depends on the distance between two distinguishable radiating points.
Film frameIn filmmaking, video production, animation, and related fields, a frame is one of the many s which compose the complete moving picture. The term is derived from the historical development of film stock, in which the sequentially recorded single images look like a framed picture when examined individually. The term may also be used more generally as a noun or verb to refer to the edges of the image as seen in a camera viewfinder or projected on a screen. Thus, the camera operator can be said to keep a car in frame by panning with it as it speeds past.
Haute définitionLa haute définition (HD) désigne une classification d'équipements de télédiffusion et de vidéo numérique ayant une définition d'au moins 1280 par (720p), puis 1920 par 1080 pixels (1080i et 1080p) et par la suite, 2560 par 1440 pixels (1440p). Elle est l'évolution du SDTV. Le terme HD s'étend à l'ensemble des techniques audiovisuelles numériques telles que le HDV (grand public), le HDCam, la télévision (DVB-T, DVB-S, DVB-C), les supports disque Blu-ray, HD DVD, l'enregistrement multimédia sur disque dur, ainsi qu'au stockage de données informatiques.
