Fujifilm Finepix S9500 zoom purple fringing comparison
 |
To measure purple fringing caused
by lens chromatic aberrations and sensor blooming, we photographed a custom
test chart, left, with areas of very high contrast. We used the cameras
at their widest and longest focal lengths with the aperture wide open in
Aperture Priority mode. The crops are taken from the upper left corner of
the chart and presented here at 100%. Like most lenses, purple fringing is visible at wide angle with the S9500's aperture wide open, but it's no worse than its rivals. Closing the aperture also keeps it under check. |

Fujifilm Finepix S9500 zoom macro comparison
 |
To measure macro performance we photographed
a custom chart using the bundled lenses at a distance and focal length which
delivered the maximum possible reproduction. The dark lines are 10mm apart. The image left was taken with the Fujifilm S9500 at 6.2mm f8 (equivalent to 28mm). The S9500 is capable of focusing very close, and at a distance of just 2.1cm, captured an area of 50x38mm. With the lens set at wide angle, there's inevitably some barrel distortion, but it's still the maximum reproduction of this group. |
