Olympus FE-230 - 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 ISO setting has been reduced to let you see the full image, and below that a series of full resolution crops have taken from original images at a range of ISO settings to show the overall image quality. Because the FE-230 has only automatic ISO, there are only two images presented here.

----

This shot was taken indoors using diffuse daylight, at a moderate zoom setting. The pincushion distortion is very noticeable; the rows of chips on this circuit board should be straight and parallel.

----

At the automatically-set 125 ISO the image is clean and sharp.

----

Setting the camera to the anti-blur "DIS" mode increases the ISO setting by a couple of stops, with a maximum of 1250. For this shot the camera has selected 500 ISO. There is some noise visible, and some fine detail has been lost.
