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.

Even with the camera mounted on a solid tripod, the image stabilisation turned on and using the 2-second self timer to fire the shutter, the S610c still shows camera shake in this 1/2 second exposure, but at least it'll take your mind off the image noise that is visible in this 100 ISO shot.

Noshake this time at 1/4 of a second, but image noise is still visible.

Slightly more noise at 400 ISO.

/b94019|ae63_9048-nikons610ciso800.jpg

By 800 ISO the level of detail has dropped considerably, and colour saturation is fading.

At 1600 ISO almost all fine detail has gone, and the noise levels are much higher.

----

/9a69c1|5b8a_9048-nikons610ciso3200.jpg

3200 ISO is full resolution at least, but the image quality is not good.

This is the full frame at maximum ISO.
