image sharpness
Picture detail level
Image sharpness is the clarity and definition of edges and fine details in a photograph or digital image.
Sharp images show crisp transitions between elements; soft or blurry images lack this definition.
Photographers adjust focus, aperture, and shutter speed to control sharpness, while post-processing software can enhance or simulate it: I increased the image sharpness in editing.
