Portrait with flash
The camera is set in automatic mode with flash. The picture is taken from 3 meters and with a focal of 100 mm (equivalent to 35 mm). We are looking for a camera capable of rendering good colors, similar to the Canon EOS 350D’s without a flash.
Canon Ixus 800-IS
Casio Exilim S600
FujiFilm FinePix F11
Konica Minolta Dimage X1
Nikon Coolpix P4
Olympus Mju 720 SW
Pentax Optio W10
Panasonic DMCFX01
Ricoh Caplio R3
Sony DSC-T9
Even if 5 cameras capture an “acceptable” result, we see that it is best no to use the flash when possible. Skin tones aren’t true on pictures and hair is shiny. It is fortunate that the doll doesn’t have real eyes or they would have been red on most images. You will notice that shadows that create the volume of the face without flash and with the reflex have completely disappeared. Our subject completely lacks volume.
