Pentax Optio P80 - Test Shots - ISO Performance

A range of test shots are shown over the next few pages. Here, the full size images at the minimum and maximum ISO settings have been reduced for bandwidth purposes to let you see the full image, and a series of crops taken from original full resolution images at a range of ISO settings have been included in order for you to gain an appreciation of the overall quality.

This is the full frame at 125 ISO.

Colour depth and detail are lost at 800 ISO.

Very noisy results at 1600 ISO, but at least the colour's back.

3200 ISO is available at 5MP, but it's not much better than phone camera quality.
