----



The wide angle end of the zoom range is 28mm, useful for wide panoramic shots.

----



The telephoto end is equivalent to 102mm, no better than most 3x zoom compacts.

----



Dynamic range is pretty good, with good shadow detail although there are burned-out highlights.

----



This is the same shot, but processed using the D-Lighting function in playback mode.

----



Close-range flash exposure is well metered, and the range isn't bad either.
