| resolving power |
The shortest possible distance at which two points can still be separated from one another on a photographic medium. In other words, resolving power is a measure of the capacity of the process to reproduce fine details (cf. acutance and definition).

| resolving power |
An expression of lens definition, usually stated as the maximum number of lines per millimeter that can be resolved (ie, seen as separate lines) in the image. The resolving power of the lens varies with the contrast of the test chart and normally varies also with the orientation and position of the chart within the field.

| resolving power |
The resolving power of a lens is a measure of its ability to closely spaced objects so they are recognizable as individual objects. It is determined by photographing a series of closely spaced lines, measuring the spacing between the most closely spaced lines that appear separate on film. The resolving power is expressed as the number of lines pairs per millimeter.
