Pentax Optio P70 - Test Shots - Detail and Lens Performance

A range of general test shots are shown over the next two pages. In some cases, the full size image has been reduced for bandwidth purposes, and a crop taken from the original full resolution image has been placed below it to show the overall image quality. Some other pictures may be clicked to view the original full-size image.

Here's the usual detail test shot of the West Window of Exeter Cathedral, for you to compare with other cameras. See below for a full res crop, or click to see the whole picture. Please note that all these test shots were unforunately shot at full resolution but at the second-highest quality setting. I will update them later this week.

Even at the lower quality setting, the level of recorded detail is very good.

The lens (or is it the processing?) produces almost no barrel distortion.

Unfortunately AF system seems to have focused on the background...

Corner sharpness is good though, with minimal chromatic aberration.
