Here are a few images that accurately reflect the abilities
of any given camera model. The images are altered only in
terms of size and sharpness after reduction and by the JPEG
compression used. Unless otherwise mentioned, assume that
any marbling or artifacts visible in the images are due to
the compression required to display them here. We feel however,
that they still faithfully represent the results we experienced.
STILL LIFE
PHOTO
This scene was photographed indoors in a room lit by natural
light on a cloudy day. The camera flash is used to add fill light.
This photo is taken at the widest setting of camera's zoom lens using
the unit's center-weighted exposure mode, which we found produced the
best quality for this scene. When viewed at 100 percent in an image editor,
there was some evidence of noise on the walls near the radiator and on
the sheer curtains. Overall, thought, the picture was very clean. Objects
in the photo were sharply rendered without any hint of jaggedness. Colors
have good saturation and fidelity. Detail outside the window is fairly
crisp and properly exposed.

STILL LIFE PHOTO
This shot tests the camera's zoom on the still life scene under the same
lighting and metering conditions.
With the zoom at maximum telephoto, the camera produced a sharp and evenly
exposed image with very little discernable noise. Small details like the
icons on the mode dial were clearly rendered. Color fidelity was good,
although the red surface beneath the camera was a bit oversaturated.

MACRO
PHOTO
This is macro test shot. The test object is about 4.5 inches
wide by 3.5 inches high.
This Samsung model has a macro and super macro made. Both
macro photos were shot using the multi metering mode. The photo on the
left was taken in macro mode with a flash. It is sharp and has very little
noise, but is a tad underexposed. At 100 percent in a photo editor, the
metal latticework is nicely rendered. Color fidelity is good. The photo
on the right was shot in super macro mode without a flash. It is slightly
more noisy than the macro shot and the color is a bit undersaturated.
At 100 percent in an image editor, the latticework had softer lines than
those in the macro shot.

BUILDING PHOTO
This is an outdoor test shot taken in multi metering mode.
The house has lots of fine detail in the shingles and slate roof, as well
as the architectural design of the doorway.
Elements in the photo are sharp and the colors are true. Displaying the
image at 100 percent in a photo editor showed barely noticeable noise
under the eaves of the roof.

ZOOM BUILDING
PHOTO
Without moving from the spot that the building photo was
taken, the image of the entrance to house was captured with the camera's
zoom at maximum telephoto. Image stabilization was enabled and multi metering
mode was used. At 100 percent view in a photo editor some slight noise
could be detected in the shadow areas under the gable over the entrance
to the house. Otherwise, detail was sharp, especially the branches of
the dogwood tree in the foreground. Color is faithful to real life.
