... four images, two cameras 

Ambient light from a window as a light source.  Shot against black velvet.

From the E-620




From the HS-10

My they are beautiful.  Can't say which camera does the best job.  They all are good.

Well done!!!

I don't have an expert's eye, so I have to say the results of both cameras seem pretty equal - wonderful, that is!

It's getting that way for me!    Thanks a lot, Judy!

Hmmm...  it seems like they are handling the highlights a little differently.  Or did a cloud go by when the HS-10 was used?  The entire rose, but especially the stem, is quite bright on the second E-620 shot.  The depth of field is different, too.  Is that due to the different sensors?  Did you choose the camera's settings or did the cameras choose?

Comparison shots are tough!

Not really comparison shots because the sun was inconsistent with clouds or my willow tree blowing in the way.  The DOF is handled WAY differently because the E-620 is a DSLR and the HS-10 is a bridge camera with a small sensor (unfortunately).  I shoot in manual so, I chose.  From the way the HS-10 was handling things, I had to take it out of Vivid and go to Standard coloration.  I think I should probably have done that with the E-620, too.  Ah, well... it is what it is.  

FWIW, the HS-10 images are more true to color.

What wonderful images.  I just love the water droplets!
