densetree_SL400R.jpg

This picture taken by Kyocera FineCam SL400R digital camera shows a shot of a tree with dense leaves taken in broad daylight. The exposure metering was set to Evaluation mode.

My Observations:

-Underside of Canopy of Tree is too Dark
The underside of the canopy of the tree turns out too dark in this picture. Thus, there is loss of details among the leaves. This is highlighted in the red rectangle above.

-Not too much Blurring
The dense leaves of the tree can still be distinguished, although maybe not as clearly as our eyes can see. This means that the image processing algorithms of this camera does not introduce much blurring to the picture. If the leaves of the trees appear in green patches, that means that there is blurring during the processing of the picture by the camera.

-Comparison with other Camera
Take a look at the same picture taken by the Olympus D580 digital camera over here.

The main feature for comparison in this picture is in the dense leaves of the tree. The pictures below show comparison between the two cameras of regions taken from the tree above.

Left Side of Tree
Kyocera SL400R		Olympus D580

Right Side of Tree
Kyocera SL400R		Olympus D580

The colors of the leaves look more vibrant and fresher in the picture by Olympus D580 than in the one by the SL400R. The leaves can be distinguished quite clearly for both the cameras, which is very good compared to many other cameras already.
