Sony Cyber-shot DSC-R1 resolution comparison
![]() |
To measure resolving power we photographed
the standard ISO 12233 test chart with each camera set to its best quality
JPEG settings. We then set the lenses to f8 using Aperture Priority mode.
The crops are taken from the originals and presented here at 100%. Each
number represents 100 lines per picture height (lpph), so a figure of 18
means a resolution of 1800 lpph. The image left was taken with the Sony DSC-R1 at 42mm f8 (70mm equivalent); the original JPEG measured 3.76MB. With 1900 and 1950 lpph of horizontal and vertical resolution respectively, the R1 comfortably beats the other cameras here and approaches the limit of the ISO 12233 chart. |
