Strengths highlighted in the tests
DXOMARK testing identified accurate exposure and wide dynamic range in photos and videos as key advantages. Neutral white balance results in natural, pleasing colors in most conditions.
Captures in low light have a good level of detail and effective noise reduction. In portrait mode, depth calculation and skin tones receive consistent praise. The ultrawide stands out for its overall quality, positioning the Signature among the best in this specific category.
Limitations noted
Despite the positive points, experts noticed occasional instabilities in video exposure in certain scenes. In brightly lit backgrounds, visible noise appears in some images.
When zooming at short distances, before activating the telephoto lens, there is a slight loss of detail. Essas failures do not compromise overall performance, which remains balanced and competitive.
