disagree Cetacea: "Bildschärfe is definitely not "image definition"!

neutral Kcda: Image size is correct but image definition is wrong. You can under circumstances say an image is well defined but that is still to vague a term!

  -> I agree with your and Catecea's 'image definition' comments. I wasn't sure about this term.

agree Cetacea: "Adjust sound, image size and focus settings." They seem to prefer "image" to "picture" nowadays.

neutral Kcda: Focus is a technicall word and means when an image/picture is sharp (proper grammar would be focused. However we cannot say image focus or picture focus. Hence I remain neutral.
