Visited City Hall this morning and brought along the SX120 in order to
see how it works at full zoom.

Took this pic from the back of the room, handheld at 1/100 sec (360mm).

I'm sure you will find a bit of camera shake, but I'm really interested
in how the barrel distortion appears, ditto for purple fringing...

Appreciate anything you can tell me.


Commenting only on the small image, because its about the same size as
a print, it's as good or better than would appear in my local newspaper.

No distortion or fringing noticeable. It's more than sharp enough for
its purpose. Some colour noise in places, but not too distracting and
could be reduced in an editor if necessary.

Great shot, Dudley.
