Center sharpness and detail are very good for such an inexpensive camera, however photos do soften up as you head off-center and noise/graininess is visible at full size even at ISO 80. The A480 performs true to its class, delivering its best photos below ISO 200 and begins declining between ISO 200 and ISO 400. Though ISO 800 photos aren't great, they're usable at small sizes. ISO 1600 is bad and only recommended for low-light emergencies where quality takes a backseat to getting a shot.
