Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.
Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.
Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

As I posted last week in a mini review, I purchased the Panasonic FT2 (TS2) earlier this month from Amazon and had it shipped over to Oz by a friend. The thing is a gem. I have used it mainly with it's 10 fps mode (@ 3mp). The focus for such a small camera is nothing short of amazing, even in low light. The jpg's are a tad over processed / smoothed but hey, it captures what otherwise would be impossible images to get with a pocketable camera. The 3mp images are only good for web or 6"x4" prints (you may squeeze a 5x7 from them, I have only had 6x4s printed). Once the focus is achieved, the camera squeezes off frames like a mini-gattling gun. I am highly impressed and thoroughly recommend this gem for parents/grandparents etc wanting photos of their never-sit-still kids. Ozi.

Nice images, Ozi. The Panasonic looks like a winner. They are doing great things with their compact cameras. Are these photos straight out of the camera, or have you boosted saturation etc in PP ? BTW, love the last image (the wave). I could see that being released as a background on Windows 8 (sorry Mac users  ) Dave Dave

They are certainly good photographs. I must admit that a good point and shoot
camera can be invaluable when you cannot have your SLR and related gear, which
can be bulky, obtrusive and be the cause of a hernia or two.

Straight from the camera Dave. The FT2 only does jpg but imho that's fine for snaps. The Panasonic jpg processing maybe does overdo the skin smoothing thing but the 6x4 prints I picked up today are excellent. My 18 month grandson was running around with the camera last night. He dropped it but no problem, this thing seems tough. President, A.A.A.A.A (Australian Association Against Acronym Abuse)

I am carrying 3 hernias atm. Now I know how I got them! 70-200 2.8 IS is the culprit. President, A.A.A.A.A (Australian Association Against Acronym Abuse)
