Things to note:
1) The graininess here is about the same as that in the S85 version.
2) The barrel distortion is about the same (it probably would have been less if I'd adjusted the zoom to 17mm / FLM 34mm).
2) Note the difference that the extra zoom gives (34mm compared to 28mm).
3) Note the difference in white balance / colour saturation. This image more accurately reproduces what I saw with my eye; the incandescent spots in the room produce a fairly yellow light; the S85's "indoor" WB setting didn't quite match.
4) I had set the aperture to automatic. At wide zoom, it could have chosen f/2.8. Maybe that's 'cause I had left the exposure at 400 from the previous picture. A better picture would have resulted from using f/2.8 and either 1/30 or ISO 100.
Since we calculated the zoom factors WRT 50mm for the S85, might as well do it for this camera: FM 28mm - 90mm gives 0.56x - 1.8x.
