Olympus Pen E-PL1 - 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. These pictures were taken indoors using shaded natural light.

----

This is the full frame at minimum ISO.

----

Image quality at the minimum 100 ISO is superb.

----

Still no real problems at 200 ISO.

----

Colour saturation is slightly reduced at 400 ISO, but there is still no noise.

----

Noise reduction effects are visible at 800 ISO, but overall quality is still very good.

----

Noise is visible at 1600 ISO, but the image is still printable.

----

At the maximum 3200 ISO noise is becoming a problem, but it would still be acceptable for smaller image.

----

This is the full frame at maximum ISO.
