Your photos are posted with no profile embedded - I'm guessing that they were in the Adobe 1998 profile at some point (in camera or in software) and in the process of uploading the profile tag was lost. Most web browsers do not pay attention to color profile tags anyway so images need to be converted to the sRGB profile before uploading to look decent.Michael Tallmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13532965747087932014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777454663138389757.post-27150677208871894412009-03-27T13:32:00.000-04:002009-03-27T13:32:00.000-04:00Your review pushed me over the edge.

I have fingers made crooked by arthritis and will have to learn to hold it, but I'm happy so far. Thanks for this posting and all of the others.

I must have recommended this camera to at least 10 people.

The LAST thing I need is another camera, but it really would be nice to have a quality pocket digital for those times when it is just a pain in the butt to lug around my enormous 5D. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for posting these!Christopher Paquettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05059036599070455568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777454663138389757.post-8675166163389817062009-03-13T11:18:00.000-04:002009-03-13T11:18:00.000-04:00Dear Concrete -It's a Panasonic Lumix with a Leica...Dear Concrete -<BR/><BR/>It's a Panasonic Lumix with a Leica lens.
