But there’s still a good amount of detail in the image.Īction: 3.28MB, Program, 1/125, f5.2, 125 ISO, 5-100mm at 100mm (560mm equivalent)

The increase to 200 ISO has seen noise levels spread to more than just the dark mid-tones, and again edges which should be sharp look a little fuzzy. As usual though we increased the sensitivity to 200 ISO, and zoomed the lens-in a little, this time to an equivalent of 112mm. The Steamship was being serviced during our test period, so the vessel was static. Once again, the crops are detailed, and a lack of darker mid-tones in this composition has avoided too much visible noise.

The vertically-tilting monitor was facing directly upwards, allowing us to frame comfortably with the HX1 almost on the ground. Once again we used the camera’s lowest 125 ISO sensitivity. Landscape: 3.95MB, Program, 1/640, f4, 125 ISO, 5-100mm at 5mm (28mm equivalent)Īnother shot taken under bright conditions with the Sony zoomed-out to its widest angle view. There’s lots of fine detail when viewed at 100% and few optical artefacts to worry about, but noise is already quite visible in shadow areas.Įdges which should be crisp and sharp are also fuzzy at times, and remember this is at the lowest ISO under bright conditions. This first shot was taken with the HX1 under bright conditions with its lens zoomed-out and the sensitivity set to the lowest 125 ISO. Note: you may wish to open a number of galleries for direct comparison of detail and noise: Canon PowerShot SX1 IS Sample Images, Canon PowerShot SX10 IS Sample Images, Panasonic Lumix FZ28 Sample Images and Nikon CoolPIX P90 Sample Images. The three crops are typically taken from far left, central and far right portions of each image. The crops are taken from the original files, reproduced at 100% and saved in Adobe Photoshop CS4 as JPEGs with the default Very High quality preset, while the resized images were made in Photoshop CS4 and saved with the default High quality preset. The individual exposure mode, file sizes, shutter speeds, aperture, ISO and lens focal length are listed for each image. SteadyShot Stabilisation was enabled for all these handheld shots. The Cyber-shot HX1 was set to its best quality 9M mode with Auto White Balance, Multi metering and the Normal Colour mode DRO, NR, Saturation, Contrast and Sharpness were set to their default Standard options.

The following images were taken with a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX1. Inevitably, there’s some imperfections: studying the image at 100% reveals some areas with ghostly duplications, such as the road in the middle crop and the telescope on the right, but it still remains a fun and useful facility, that’s capable of impressive results with ease. It’s a doddle to create these images, with the camera guiding you through the sweep, and automatically making up for any wobbles as it stitches them together. Here’s an example, showing a 180 degree sweep atop the Skyline Gondola balcony where we take our real-life resolution test photos.
