horizontal resolution
Number of equally spaced vertical black-to-white or white-to-black transitions that the camera is able to reproduce, divided by the aspect ratio (usually 4:3) to make a comparison between horizontal and vertical resolution easier. Usually expressed as TV lines per picture height. Indicates the amount of horizontal details that can be perceived. Horizontal resolution is limited by the number of pixels in one line and by the type of color filter used, if any.
