continuous tone
A characteristic of an image (e.g., a photograph) such that the image has all the values (0 to 100%) of gray (black and white) or color in it. Note: A continuous tone can be approximated by the use of thousands or millions of gradations of black and white or colors. The granularity of computer screens (viz. , pixel size) can limit the ability to display absolute continuous tone.
