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.

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.

The level of fine detail is exceptionally good, among the best ever from a pocket compact.

The lens produces some barrel distortion at wide angle, but I've seen a lot worse.

Excellent sharpness at the centre of the frame.

There is some blurring at the very edges of the frame, and surprisingly some purple fringing too.
