Here's the usual test shot of the west window of Exeter cathedral to compare detail and sharpness with other cameras. See below for a full-res crop or click to download the full-sized version.
The level of detail is very good, with low compression and good contrast.
There is almost no barrel distortion at wide angle, although some of this may be due to image processing.
Cente sharpness is superb.
Corner sharpness is also very good, although there is some chromatica aberration.
