I think the quality of the images in the pdf aren't up to scratch (lots of pixelation) and should never be used when doing a review on a camera, especially when showing sample images of what the camera can do.

Some things cannot be helped. I supplied the images to the editor in the US at full resolution and that is what they will have used in the print edition of the magazine. Obviously the images have lost a lot of data in translation to the magazine's online edition.... they were probably trying to keep the PDF sizes small and also encourage people to buy the magazine!
Hope you enjoyed the read though. :)
