    Imatest software provides tools to analyze the sharpness and spatial frequency response of imaging systems. It measures the modulation transfer function (MTF) and spatial frequency response (SFR) to characterize image quality. Key metrics include the spatial frequencies at 50% MTF (MTF50) and cycles per pixel (C/P). Imatest can test digital cameras, lenses, and printed images using test charts with slanted edges analyzed via the slanted edge algorithm. Results are compared to ISO standards to evaluate image quality levels.

    isn’t

    Experience has shown that the best indicators of image sharpness are the spatial frequencies
    where MTF is 50% of its low frequency value (MTF50) or 50% of its peak value (MTF50P).
