From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Summary

In this focal cloud illustration, a perfect reflector would focus all beams into blue spot.

But due to imperfections of lens construction, the actual signal beams follow the red path to several different focal points, which form the focal cloud.

The better the lens, the less wide is the focal cloud.
