Kodak DC210 Test
Images
|
|
Outdoor portrait: Great color! Slightly warm cast, but excellent tonal range, good flesh tones, nice balance of colors in the flowers. | ||
|
|
Indoor portrait, flash: Good balance between the flash and available light, slightly favoring the available light. (Perhaps a personal bias, but we prefer more subtle flash effects, and therefore like the softer fill light the DC210's flash provides in "auto" mode.) Natural skin tone, good color balance overall. | ||
|
|
Indoor portrait, no flash: Good color balance. Preserves much of the warmth of the incandescent lighting, but still shows good color overall. | ||
|
|
House shot: Very good detail, excellent color, almost no compression artifacts. | ||
|
|
"Musicians" poster: Very good detail, nice, natural skin tones, good color saturation, particularly in the blue robe. | ||
|
|
Macro shot: Very nice close-up capability. This shot taken with studio lighting, but on-board flash also works well up close. | ||
|
|
"Davebox" test target: Great color saturation in the MacBeth target, yet the subtle pastels in the Q-60 swatches are also handled well. Excellent highlight detail, moderate shadow detail. | ||
|
|
"WG-18" resolution target: (Technoids only) - Visual resolution of ~500-550 line pairs/picture height horizontally and vertically, very little aliasing. | ||
|
(Wide)
(Tele) |
Viewfinder accuracy/flash uniformity target: At wide-angle setting, target is offset slightly (about 5%) to the left, well-centered vertically. At telephoto end of lens range, horizontal offset is slightly more pronounced, slight vertical offset becomes evident (~5%). Flash uniformity good at telephoto focal length, is slightly "hot" at the center of the field of view at wide-angle settings. |
