I, too, immediately was taken with the strap lugs. Great feature there. Thanks for your thoughtful and personal post.Chris Tanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09120548311051015994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6938824791812834583.post-21227976915355310162017-09-25T20:51:35.128-07:002017-09-25T20:51:35.128-07:00Thank you first of all on my review. :) I have a 3...Thank you first of all on my review. :) I have a 30x40" print on my wall from the V-LUX that looks fantastic. If you are planning to show in a gallery, you can expect a 13x19" print to look incredibly detailed. To get the best results for prints, of course its best to shoot at the lowest ISO. At that level, you can make some extremely good looking prints. 20mp of resolution looks very good indeed.Carl Garrardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01561256121516104816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6938824791812834583.post-4026767234968661582017-09-25T08:12:33.333-07:002017-09-25T08:12:33.333-07:00Hi Carl,

I also looked at your review of the Panasonic FZ1000 and was interested to read that you would not hesitate to make "professional level gallery quality landscapes" etc. What sort of size will files from the V Lux blow up to?<br />I have used Nikon, Canon and lately Fugi cameras but have reached an age when i do not want to keep carting all the weight around, hence the interest in the V Lux. I have not used a camera with a 1 inch sensor before so do not really know what it is capable of producing.<br />Any comments would really be appreciatedAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6938824791812834583.post-33685632660610682672017-09-10T08:30:11.057-07:002017-09-10T08:30:11.057-07:00Good point Anonymous!
