Can anyone help?
Cheers.

That is absolutely correct, sir!fel bautista wrote:I think the Panasonics cameras have Leica lenses. I'm obssesive with Leica hardware so its a pick between those two. Pick the 7M if its a price point issue.
my $0.02
The leica lens woudl be one reason. Another would be because it appears on the surface to be a decent compromise between power and quality for the price. In point-and-shoot digitals, you really don't want to get into anything over 7mp, because of the increased ammount of noise in the photos taken at higher ASA ratings. There are programs out there to deal with the noise and remove it, but I'd rather not deal with it at all in the first place.amar wrote:Tyler, would you go for the panasonic because of the leica lenses, or is there an other reason?
hm...not easy..

Here's a couple macro shot examples from my trip to Ireland:
How does the MP rating affect this? Any ASA above about 800 is going to introduce some noise wouldn't it?Tyler Morris wrote:In point-and-shoot digitals, you really don't want to get into anything over 7mp, because of the increased ammount of noise in the photos taken at higher ASA ratings.
They're trying to squeeze more MPs into the same size ccd, and the result is smaller, less efficient pixels (meaning, weaker signal to the camera's processor).Scott McCallister wrote:How does the MP rating affect this?

Also, Wouldn't the size of the CCD chip contribute to this? The smaller the chip, physically, the more noise will be introduced regardless of the MP rating. I thought.
What's happening here? Will you elaborate?
