Resolution (also called resolving power) is the amount of detail that you can see in the image produced by an optical instrument. The term is applied, for example, to camera l â¦ enses as well as to microscopes. Resolution is different from magnification.

However, you will not see any more detail, so there is no increase in resolution.
