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 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 overall level of detail is pretty low for an 8.0-megapixel camera, and lacking in sharpness.

Edge sharpness is about the same as the centre...



Centre sharpness is not good.
