Image Quality – Panasonic GF1
As a real-world test of the image quality of the GF1, here is a scene in the center of Leeds with people watching a street performer.
It’s a messy scene without focus, but also here is a crop of two percent of the frame that shows the detail that the camera can pick up.
Important: Not sure what is happening with images uploaded here, but they are much more compressed than when they leave my home machine. Must be some setting within WPress at the server end.

At The Taj Mahal
This photograph didn’t make the cut for the People category of the Focus India section on the site, because the main subject was moving and blurred.
However, it is perhaps interesting as a shot of the general scene around the Taj Mahal.

Looking At The Wall
I took this photo mainly for the architecture of the staircase.
Looking back at this photograph I can see that because of the way it is framed, the man in the white top on the right could be looking at the wall or at something on the wall.
He is not looking straight ahead though – he is looking slightly to his left, and realistically, why would he be staring at the wall?
That brings to mind that in photography it is a matter of framing and of knowing the back story.
If it were a scene of a prison and the people walking down the stairs were warders, we could easily believe that the man in the white top was standing to attention facing the wall.
We just can’t help importing our understanding of situations into the situations we see.
