Panasonic DMC-FZ30 corner sharpness comparison
![]() |
To measure corner sharpness we photographed
the standard ISO 12233 test chart with each camera set to its best quality
JPEG settings. We used the lenses at their widest and longest focal lengths
and with various apertures in Aperture Priority mode. The crops are taken
from the lower left corner of the chart and presented here at 100%. The FZ30 delivers an excellent result here, with sharp corners even at wide apertures and short focal lengths. In this respect it beats the Fujifilm S9500 and is particularly impressive when its 12x focal range is taken into consideration. Note the Panasonic and Fujifilm cameras have a 4:3 aspect ratio, hence the different cropped area. |
