| circle of confusion |
The largest on-film circle that you can see as a well defined point on an 8x10 print when viewed at from a "normal" viewing distance of 2 to 3 feet. Anything larger is seen as a small circle, not a point and is therefore perceived as out of focus. For 35mm format the diameter of such point or circle is 0.025mm, commonly rounded to 0.03mm
