Kodak EasyShare Z712 IS - Test Shots - Full Res Crops

A range of general test shots are shown over the next two pages. In some cases, the full size image has been reduced for bandwidth purposes, and a crop taken from the original full resolution image has been placed below it to show the overall image quality. Some other pictures may be clicked to view the original full-size image.

At last a sunny day for my test shots. I take this same shot with every camera I test. Click on the image to see it full size or look at the 100 percent crop below.

----



The Schneider-Kreuznach lens produces excellent pin-sharp detail, but there is some visible evidence of severe image compression.

----



The lens produces very little distortion at wide angle.

----



This crop from the above image shows that the sharpness extends almost right into the corner of the frame, but there is some purple fringing visible.

----



The huge zoom range is impressive, but the wide angel end is only equivalent to 36mm. 28mm would have been more useful.

----



With a telephoto end equivalent to 432mm, you can zoom right in on the details. This shot was taken from the same spot as the one above.
