Weak Support - (Changed from support) Blur at the bottom. I knew I saw something. Ceran^→//forge 23:13, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose The top is blown and it appears that the camera only focused on the sides and not in the middle. The bottom, however, is blurry from the edges and the lighting is not equal. It is noticeable as a thumbnail, and definitely noticeable when zoomed. Zoo Fari 23:30, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Oppose per ZooFari's analysis. ~ ωαdεstεr16_«talk^stalk» 06:08, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose due to blown highlights and shadows detracting from the image, still useful though.Terri G (talk) 20:03, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. To put ZooFari's comments in different terms, the DOF is simply too shallow, with front and centre quite out of focus. I liked the thumb, but was disappointed with that aspect of it at full res. Sorry. --jjron (talk) 14:14, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
