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 80 ISO.





At the minimum ISO setting of 80 there is very little real noise.





Similar results at 100 ISO.





Even as low as 200 ISO the noise reduction is producing some fuzzy edges.





Significant detail blurring from the noise reduction at 400 ISO.





At 800 ISO there are some nasty artifacts appearing along the edge of the red area.





At 1600 ISO the image quality is looking very shaky, with most fine detail lost and edges blurred out.





3200 ISO. Oh dear.
