Noise and dynamic range
These graphs were produced using data generated by DXO Analyzer.
We shoot a specially designed chart in carefully controlled conditions and the resulting images are analysed using the DXO software.
Signal to noise ratio
A high signal to noise ratio (SNR) indicates a cleaner and better quality image.
JPEG images from the Canon PowerShot are on a par with those from the Samsung WB700 and Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ20 .

Dynamic range
This chart indicates that the Canon PowerShot SX150 IS's JPEGs just have the edge over the Nikon Coolpix S6200 and Samsung WB700.
