By optimizing many key image quality factors, high-quality images are created. Sharpness determines the amount of detail that the imaging system can reproduce. Learn how to use Imatest to optimize the sharpness of your camera system.

Noise is an unpredictable, random spatial variation, which can be seen as texture in film or pixel-level fluctuations in digital images. Learn how to use Imatest to assess the impact of noise on your camera system.

Lateral Chromatic Aberration (LCA), also referred to as Lateral Color Displacement (LCD) or "Color Moiré", is a lens aberration that results in color fringing, where colors focus at different distances from the center of the image. This effect is most pronounced near the corners of the image. In this video, we will discuss the techniques used for evaluating LCA.

Color Accuracy

Understanding the Fundamentals of Color Accuracy Testing, Including RAW Image Processing, Measurement Techniques, and the Encoding of Colors Perceived by the Human Visual System.

The characteristic of dynamic range lies in the ratio between the maximum light intensity that a camera system can capture and the darkest tones that are indistinguishable from noise. Dynamic range measurement is essential for optimizing system performance and verifying camera design specifications. Informed consumers seek camera systems with exceptional dynamic range, capable of capturing details in shadowed areas while retaining fine details in brighter regions.
