The wide angle end of the zoom range is equivalent to 35mm.

The telephoto end is equivalent to 140mm, just enough to see that this sheep has mistaken me for a Welshman.

Dynamic range isn't too bad for a 12MP camera, with some detail in the shadow area.

Colour reproduction is good in the default setting.

The macro range is 3cm, but the auto white balance has left a greenish tint in this image.
