A number of topics related to Fourier imaging are investigated. Relationships between the magnitude of errors in the amplitude and phase of the Fourier transform of images and the mean square error in reconstructed images are derived. The differing effects of amplitude and phase errors are evaluated, and "equivalent" amplitude and phase errors are derived. A model of the probability density function of the Fourier amplitudes of images is derived. The fundamental basis of phase dominance is studied and quantitated. Inconsistencies in published counter-examples of phase dominance are highlighted. The key characteristics of natural images that lead to their observed power spectral behaviour with spatial frequency are determined.
