Thank you so much, had to look everywhere for this

[@the100kmaster4]

the more great title for this video would be resolving power. i was searching for your video but i couldn't find it, only when i worte khan academy with my search of resolving power i found this video. overall resolving power title has more reach.

This was a very useful video. I had never heard the term 'airy disc' before seeing it in mark schemes. Thank you for clearing up my confusion.

What if the light was a small beam like a laser? The limit angle would be smaller?
