Image quality is quite decent for such a small PS. I was expecting soft corners, and I am pleasantly surprised by the corner sharpness. Chromatic aberration is present as expected, but it is not too bad. On the downside, my SD1000's metering is sometimes crazy. In bright light, the camera would select a very high shutter speed (such as 1/1000 instead of 125), resulting in very dark pictures. This is independent of camera settings - auto mode, "manual" mode, evaluative, center-weighted, spot metering, ... Also, the video recording in bright scenes invariably picks up a lot of flare. A white T-shirt in bright sunlight would create a big vertical band of light. Totally useless. Video indoors is much better because the flare is not present. I'm thinking of returning the camera because of these two flaws. If these are isolated problems, I may ask to exchange my camera for a new one, hoping that the latter will not exhibit these flaws. |
