Olympus SP-600UZ Samples

The crops below show the performance of the Olympus SP-600UZ next to the same ISO for the Fuji Finepix S100FS. The Olympus reaches ISO 1600 while the Fuji reaches 3200 at full-resolution.

All crops below are 100% from their respective camera taken at the highest image quality setting available. ISO was set on camera, all other settings were left at their default values. These crops help determine which ISO settings can be acceptably used on these cameras. As noise increases, most cameras compensate with noise reduction which introduces softness. The point at which a print become unacceptably noisy is a matter of personal taste.
