I just looked over the samples on deep pee review. There definitely
is some serious smearing going on. However, let's put a few things
into perspective.
1. Final Print. In the final print of almost any REASONABLE print
size, will you see the smearing? Noise? Probably not. If you crank
it up to ISO 1600 and shoot in-camera JPEG will a 5x7 print still be
acceptable? Absolutely.
2. 10MP Pixel Peeping. Folks, we're pixel-peeping 10MP images. What
if you downsize the image to 5MP--now compare the noise-smearing to a
comparable 6MP camera. Chances are, the smearing still yields as
good if not better images as a native 5MP file. And as related to
point #1, a 5MP file will enlarge very big.
3. This ain't no substitute for a proper high-end DSLR. If I need to
shoot a wedding reception at ISO 1600, the FZ50 wouldn't be my first
choice in cameras as a professional photographer.
4. If you are wanting to achieve the best possible image quality on
the cheep/light, you'd be shooting RAW anyway. Disregard everything
you see about the in-camera JPEG engine.
