Hi Robert,

You can see the tech info by clicking the link "full exif" below the photo. All photos were taken at its highest resolution, i.e. 3,648 x 2,736 (10M pixel).

Hi
I appretiate all you have done, as i i have read so many reviews i have confused myself. I will be looking at all 41 pages and all samples but not sure as to wait for HS20. Would have liked the tech details for each photo ie ISO, and megapixel taken at as i print a lot of A4'S.

No tripod was used in this series of photos.

Yes, we should turn off IS with 10s timer on if tripod is used.

To Jacky Lee. Were the photos taken wih tripod or not? That's specially important in the case of the 720mm sample, since you say in Page-16 that we should turn off IS in case we use tripod. And also important due to some complains about 720mm IS efectivness when hanheld.

For a prosumer camera with such a relatively low price (HKD 3,180 only), I can't see any actual problems. You may wish to have a look at my complete review here before you decide to buy it:

Thanks sooo very much for these testphotos! I´ve had my eyes on this one for some time, but I wanted to see how it performed at 720mm, in terms of detail and fringing and such.
Your work here has me convinced that this is a fantastic camera for the money. Out goes my Sony Cybershot H9.... (it has served me well, but now it´s time to hand it over to my daughter=))...and in comes this masterpiece of a camera=) Once again, I´m greateful for this test, now I have time to get one before going on a 6-days trip to London!!

That is great detail for the distance..very impressive..especially since I have just ordered one!!!

I am very impressed by HS10 which features 30x starting from 24mm. The quality is generally found very nice. Distortion is well-controlled in both ends of 24mm and 720mm.

The only problem is that usually when the camera is zoomed to 720mm, the ISO would be automatically increased (if you are using Program mode) in order to get a clear picture to prevent handshake. In this way, the sharpness, colour and contrast would decrease with increased noise in high ISO setting, expecially when the ISO is increased to 1600 or above, resulting in a seemingly digital zoom image. In bright sunlight, there is no such problem if you can keep the ISO at 100.

See my 720mm shot with ISO100 and you would find that the details are pretty good:
