XS1 lens test...

I was bored so I thought it would be interesting to see what the IQ (sharpness) would be like of the same object at wide angle vs full optical zoom, so nothing scientific, just using P mode and focusing on screw heads. I'm pleasantly surprised actually, I'm sure one can PP etc to get even better results but I'm pretty impressed.

so here are the 4 originals and then 4 crops:

wide angle

full optical

wide angle

full optical

and now the 100% crops:

100% crop wide angle

100% crop full optical zoom

100% crop wide angle

100% crop full optical

There is a slight difference in detail, but I'm impressed, again, the XS1 manages to surprise me.
