Mainly using this camera to shoot kids and airplanes, I've had the following observations: - wish I had a little more telephoto reach, like 600mm - equally wish for slightly wider than 25mm, which is a bit cramped indoors (but that's where the LX7 comes in) - however, this combo of lens, sensor, and body is a trifecta for most uses - no problems getting my shots in any lighting condition short of black -- even the focus in low lighting is exceptionally fast and accurate - focus is crisp and this camera can catch the fast movements, but when I'm fully zoomed in, the sharpness falls off ever so slightly - I'm puzzled by why Pana left of the electronic ND filter, although i could go old-school and thread one on the end - the colors out of the camera seem spot on -- particularly impressive are the very natural redsThe high resolution, articulated, BIG LCD display is a huge improvement over the antique-looking FZ50's LCD, and very good even outdoors in bright daylight (though still tough to see when washed direct sunlight)
