A range of test shots are shown over the next three pages. Here, 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 in order for you to gain an appreciation of the overall quality. The following pages consist of resized images so that you can evaluate the overall exposure. For those with a dial-up connection, please be patient while the pages download.





At the minimum 64 ISO, the exposure system decided that the flash was needed. Lots of fine detail, and no image noise.




At 100 ISO this image is virtually identical to the previous one, although it does seem to have a little camera shake. Oops.




200 ISO and still no sign of image noise. No shake this time though.




At 400 ISO there is some image noise beginning to appear in the shadow areas, such as the dark window.




800 ISO is only available at the low resolution of 2048 x 1536, and the noise reduction system reduces the level of detail in the shot.




1600 ISO is also only available at the low resolution of 2048 x 1536. Bright Capture noise reduction has further reduced detail levels.
