With this fun to use camera, it's time to sit back and enjoy shooting instead of worrying constantly about camera settings. I now enjoy holidays more without being burdened down by SLR/DSLR kits and fiddling with adjusts. One approach is to take all RAW and sort it out later,...

OK, I've checked your Smugmug site (http://jkingston.smugmug.com/Other/Panasonic-test/) for exif details and here is my non-expert opinion for each picture: # quite normal for iA mode, exactly what you should expect from non-DSLR, even advanced one. # f8.0 was not necessary for this shot, and ISO 125 not needed either. Try to stay at ISO 80. And f4.0 is what some people consider here as a sweetspot for LX3. # same as above for f8.0 #...

Well, I guess we all have different experiences. I too have been wearing glasses nearly my whole life (since I'm 10). I've been wearing progressive lenses for over 20 years, so I'm well accustomed to my glasses. My prescription is just fine. What can I tell you? I am not comfortable using the LCD instead of a VF which every camera I've ever owned has had --- maybe it's just a matter of getting used to something new....

Splendid work and the colours are very natural looking, unlike some of the weird stuff I have seen from current Lumix models.

LOL now I am craving a Whopper, or rather a double-whopper

It's an excellent shot. It had to be taken. And it conjurs up all manor of captions and thoughts, about life, people, contrast of youth and age and the similarities between the two, so much stuff going on. Wonderful wonderful shot.
