Depth of focus

Depth of focus is a lens optics concept that measures the tolerance of placement of the image-capturing plane (the plane of an image sensor or a film in a camera) in relation to the lens. In a camera, depth of focus indicates the tolerance of the film's displacement within the camera and is therefore sometimes referred to as "lens-to-film tolerance".
