At each spatial frequency within a camera’s resolution limit, the modulation of the camera exposure image will vary because of variation in object modulation, the atmosphere, the optical transfer function, and image motion. Thus, for each spatial frequency there is a probability that the image modulation will exceed that value required to resolve the image. This probability can be evaluated, even when the modulation detectability limit itself is variable. The resulting probability of resolution for each spatial frequency is directly observable in actual photographic results. |
