Over the next few pages we show a range of test shots. On this page the full size image at the minimum and maximum ISO settings have been reduced to let you see the full image, and a series of full resolution crops have taken from original images at a range of ISO settings to show the overall image quality. The pictures were taken outdoors in overcst daylight.





This is the full frame at 80 ISO.





At 80 ISO the image is clean, sharp and well detailed, with no trace of noise.





Much the same result at 100 ISO.





There is a very faint speckling of noise at 200 ISO, but still no real problem.





More noise is visible at 400 ISO, but it is well controlled and there's still plenty of detail.





At 800 ISO you can no longer read the motto on the sign.





Image quality falls dramatically at 1600 ISO.





3200 ISO is available, but only at 3MP resolution.





This is the full frame at maximum ISO.

The analogue dials are awesome, truly one hell of a USP. I'd have one of these over a low-end IXUS.
