DIWALabs a900 Test Results Are Up!

I have looked at these DIWA labs results before, and frankly I have almost no confidence in them!
The killer issue is their results from small sensor cameras, some of which rate as high as DSLR cameras. I have yet to see a small sensor come near larger ones esp with DR.

I suspect whoever runs DIWA, reads fantasy novels, and their test results start with.."Once upon a time"
And end with "happily ever after"
They remind me of those celebrity gossip magazines you see on sale, I guess there may be some substance there, if you did deep enough. But most of the stuff is ice thin gossip, and lacking in hard facts. I find DIWA very near to that analogy!

Here is one example of a DR result that I find hard to swallow.

I think that is enough for me to doubt the validity of the tests in at least some areas. I would trust real world results a lot more being honest.
It's all very well talking about credentials and tech stuff, but IMO DIWA are not giving an accurate indication of what really goes on. We could tech talk all day, but until someone can slap up a compact shot that matches or beats the DR of some DSLR's, it's all a bit of a novelty really.
