Sony DSC-F717 Samples Gallery

As everyone else seems to be posting samples from production Sony DSC-F717's I thought I may as well join in. Inside you'll find a small (10 image) gallery from a production DSC-F717. So far the camera seems to be performing almost identically to the DSC-F707, unfortunately it looks as though Sony still haven't addressed the F707's tendancy to over saturated reds, as is clear from some of my samples.

Clipped reds - examples

In the animations below any area of the image which has a fully saturated red channel (255) is masked in white and animated with the original image. Any colour channel which becomes fully saturated can not have detail retrieved later.
