  2. Bokeh - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bokeh

    The term comes from the Japanese word boke (暈け/ボケ), which means "blur" or "haze", resulting in boke-aji (ボケ味), the "blur quality".This is derived as a noun form of the verb bokeru, which is written in several ways, [7] with additional meanings and nuances: 暈ける refers to being blurry, hazy or out-of-focus, whereas the 惚ける and 呆ける spellings refer to being mentally ...

  3. Pixelization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixelization

    Pixelization (in British English pixelisation) or mosaic processing is any technique used in editing images or video, whereby an image is blurred by displaying part or all of it at a markedly lower resolution. It is primarily used for censorship. The effect is a standard graphics filter, available in all but the most basic bitmap graphics editors.

  4. Circle of confusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_of_confusion

    In photography, the circle of confusion diameter limit (CoC limit or CoC criterion) is often defined as the largest blur spot that will still be perceived by the human eye as a point, when viewed on a final image from a standard viewing distance. The CoC limit can be specified on a final image (e.g. a print) or on the original image (on film or ...

  5. Gaussian blur - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_blur

    The difference between a small and large Gaussian blur. In image processing, a Gaussian blur (also known as Gaussian smoothing) is the result of blurring an image by a Gaussian function (named after mathematician and scientist Carl Friedrich Gauss). It is a widely used effect in graphics software, typically to reduce image noise and reduce detail.

    Reality was still kind of blurry. "The astronomers groaned when the media was invited. And everyone was a little perplexed and uncomfortable when the image came in because it was so out of focus.

  7. Optical aberration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_aberration

    Aberrations cause the image formed by a lens to be blurred, distorted in shape or have color fringing or other effects not seen in the object, with the nature of the distortion depending on the type of aberration. Aberration can be defined as a departure of the performance of an optical system from the predictions of paraxial optics. [1]

  9. Soft focus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_focus

    In photography, soft focus is a lens flaw, in which the lens forms images that are blurred due to uncorrected spherical aberration.A soft focus lens deliberately introduces spherical aberration which blurs fine texture in the image while retaining sharp edges across areas of high contrast; it is not the same as an out-of-focus image, and the effect cannot be achieved simply by defocusing a ...
