magnification (<processes and techniques by specific type>, Processes and Techniques (hierarchy name)) |

Note: In an optical system, use of magnifying lens or other technology to increase the apparent size of an object. The term may also be used to designate a measurement of degree along a spectrum of enlargement and reduction within an optical system; the size of an image relative to the size of the object creating it. |

Additional Notes: |
|
Dutch ..... Het gebruik van een vergrotende lens of een andere technologie in een optisch systeem om een object groter weer te geven. De term kan ook worden gebruikt om een maat aan te duiden in een spectrum van vergroting en verkleining in een optisch systeem, en betekent dan het formaat van een beeld in relatie tot het formaat van het object zelf. |
