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.

The usual test shot of the cathedral window to compare detail and sharpness with other cameras. See below for a full-res crop or click to download the full-sized version.





Despite its problems the Z8612 is capable of capturing a lot of fine detail, certainly above average for an 8MP camera.





The Schneider-Kreuznach lens produces relatively little wide-angle barrel distortion.





Centre sharpness is very good, although there are some JPEG artefacts areound the window frames.





Corner sharpness is also good, although there is some chromatic aberration.
