New Camera Testing System
https://www.photoreview.com.au/tips/buying/new-camera-testing-system/Over years of equipment testing we have sought to provide readers with objective information on the performance of the cameras we evaluate. Until recently, the only quantifiable data we could capture was related to capture lag, burst mode and camera response times. But that has changed. From June 2005 we have implemented a new, more objective testing system called Imatest that allows readers to compare the performance of similarly-featured cameras quantifiably.
