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. Please note however that I inadvertently took this shot on the medium quality setting. I will replace it with a maximum quality shot at the earliest opportunity.

As you can see, even at medium quality the level of detail is very good.

The lens does produce quite bad barrel distortion at wide angle.

Corner sharpness isn't bad, but there is some slight chromatic aberration.

Flash range is about four metres, and frame coverage is good.

I don't know why but the usual detail test shot of the West Window of Exeter Cathedral looks better than many other (expensive) cameras. It is clear, detail, sharpen!
