Comments:

Dim Regions:
- The regions in the shadows for this picture are too dim with too little details. These include the areas under the corridor as well as under the canopy of the trees. In the real scene, the eyes can see more details in these places and it would be great if the camera could also reproduce these details as well.

Sharpness Criteria:
- The zoom-in below shows comparison of the object at the end of the pathway between pictures taken by the H10 and the Olympus D580.

Zoom-in into D580 Picture

The number of pixels for the transition from the gray region to the black region in the H10 zoom-in is 2-3 pixels while it is 2 pixels in the D580 zoom-in.  

Ratio of edge transition in 1 direction
= edge transition in H10 / edge transition in D580 = 3 / 2 = 1.5

Ratio of effective resolution 
= effective resolution for H10 / effective resolution for D580 =  2 MPixel / 4 MPixel = 0.5

Sharpness Discount Factor for H10 compared with D580
= ratio of effective resolution / ratio of edge transition in x and y directions = 0.5 / ( 1.5 x 1.5 ) = 0.222

Sharp Pixel Count
= 4 MPixel * 0.222 =   888 000 Pixels

Therefore, the count of pixels that contributes to the sharpness of the image by H10 (2 MPixel image sensor) is 888 000.
