Nikon CoolPix L14 - Test shots - ISO performance

Over the next few pages we show a range of test shots. On this page the full size image at the minimum and maximum ISO settings have been reduced to let you see the full image, and a series of full resolution crops have taken from original images at a range of ISO settings to show the overall image quality.

----

This was taken at 86 ISO, which was as low as the automatic ISO system would let me go for this shot.

----

Even at 86 ISO, the image quality is fairly poor.

----

By selecting the Night Landscape scene mode, I was able to fool the camera into selecting a higher ISO setting, in this case 186 ISO. As you can see, even at this setting there are serious noise problems.

----

Shooting later at night, the auto ISO selected 400, with even worse results, not helped by the poor focusing.

----

This is the full frame at 400 ISO.
