Pentax Optio Z10 - Test Shots - Full Res Crops

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 my 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.

The level of detail is very poor for an 8MP camera.

----



The unusual lens produces a lot of barrel distortion at wide angle, but at least the flash coverage is good.

----



None too sharp in the centre of the frame.

----



Even less sharp at the edge of the frame, and some chromatic aberration too.
