1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
determining characteristic data of an image;
determining, based on the characteristic data, a virtual aperture size of an optical system;
causing the optical system to scan the image at a resolution based on a physical aperture size of the optical system; and
modifying the resolution of the scanned image based on the virtual aperture size of the optical system.
