aspect ratio for the panasonic Lumix Dmc-G1: Does anyone know if I can print wide format 16x24 with the aspect ratio 4:3?

You will only get the advertised resolution at the native aspect ratio. Unfortunately I am not sure what ratio is native to the 40D, but it may also have had a reduced resolution for the 16:9 aspect. The difference in 12 to 10 megapixels should not have a big effect on your prints, you can also crop from the 4:3 images to get what you would like - with of course the the same loss of pixels, but you may feel more in control of what you lose this way.

Http://panasonic.jp/support/product/video/03/H-FS014045.html According to the website of Japan LUMIX DMC-GF3, so are listed as compatible models the middle of the page per, It is thought to be a possible mounting.

Your question does not have a simple answer. The camera has several aspect ratios, but they are not done by cropping only. They crop in one direction and expand in the other. Here are the specs: http://panasonic.net/pavc/lumix/compact/lx3/specifications.html And on this page they explain how the multiple aspect ratios work. http://panasonic.net/pavc/lumix/compact/lx3/high_image.html It's about 2/3rds the way down the page.

Aspect ratio is 16:9. As Megan Tesman already stated, definitely worth every penny.

I print directly from my computer or from the chip in my camera and it prints very nice 4 x 6 prints. It should work just fine depending on how and what you hook it up to and how fast you want them printed.. Be safe and do a trial run :)

The D7000's resolution is roughly 4900 x 3200. If you want to produce a print of 4 feet by 3 feet you can safely do so--you can even go much larger. Just keep in mind the average viewing distance. One hundred dots per inch looks great at three feet away but not at six inches.

According to the Panasonic lens chart for the 14-45 lens, the minimum focus distance is 1 foot or 12 inches. I haven't tested the G1 in the more traditional macro/close-up type approach. I didn't get the impression that the camera likes getting closer than 12".From @2-3', I was able to engage the Extended Zoom (2x) + 4x digital + a Tcon 1.7 teleconverter (1200mm) and got surprisingly good results. I'm not suggesting you do it, but it worked.

Don't be obsessed over pixel counts, consider the larges print you will be making. 12 mp can easily be printed at 12 x 18 and will be not see any differences had it been a 16 or 18 mp file. The quality of the picture, tonal range, color rendering etc, is excellent on the P7700. I have gotten very good prints at 14.5 X 11 from my old 4 mp camera. One advantage of higher mp counts it the ability to crop the picture and still be able to make a large print, or corp small areas for good smaller prints. I love my P7700 and am very satisfied with 12mp pictures. FYI, I also shoot 36mp pictures from my D800 which I print up to 40 x 60. Bottom line consider you you really need, and quality pictures should be a big priority over un-needed pixel counts.

Hello, Asking this question could get you into trouble since file size is not a determination of your image quality. See below for the reasons but my recommendation would be a minimum 2 Megapixel image (The higher the resolution the better and more important) with a file size compressed from the original as little as you can 2Mpixel probably 1MB or larger. Open the image on your computer zoom it up and view it onscreen at about the 16*20 that the canvas will be. If you are happy with that, send the image. Lastly make sure your pixel ratio is 16X20 so you get what you expect when it is printed and the part you wanted is not cropped off. The smallest and largest files I have sent are a 1500 X 1949 pixel image (compressed to 570Kb) and a 3287 X 2188 pixel image (compressed to 4.03MB) Both look great however I can tell a difference. The 570kb file had too much compression on the jpeg. In raw terms, file size should equal (width in pixels) x (height in pixels) x 3 bytes per pixel. Lets take the case of a 3-Megapixel Image, 1900 pixels * 1600 pixels = 3.04 megapixels * 3 bytes = 9.12 megabytes uncompressed. This file is typically compressed and can be over 10:1 compression resulting in 900 kbytes and a picture which looses color chroma and has artifacts. So I should just use more than 9 megabytes right? Not really because a 90 megabyte image compressed to 9 megabytes will have the same chroma and artifact issue which you will not like hanging on the wall. Hope it helps. If you have read this far, my experience was with canvas champ which was awesome.

I have it on my Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS19 which has a 3" LCD screen. The only thing negative (wasn't for me, but might be for you) is you will no longer be able to use the touchscreen. You can, however, remove the clear plastic cover from the shade before you install it if the touchscreen features are super important. For me they were more of an annoyance and I am still able to use the camera w/o any problems. The shade is very helpful in super bright sunlight and if you're in a situation where you don't need it, it can be removed and reinstalled (w/o removing the frame that holds it on the camera).

I don't have an answer, Scott, but seeing as how the 3-color cartridge is such a limitation, both in ink usage and in printing pure blacks, I wonder what the possibility is that Dymo will bring out a DiscPainter II shortly, with at least 2 cartridges. There's certainly room for them back there, and it makes a lot of sense. With my luck, they'll do it right after I buy the 3-color version. ;-) Thanks for your review. Re the dithering, is it really that bad when printing in high-resolution? Seems like at 1200 dpi the dithering ought to be minimal, but then I haven't seen one of these.

I'd like to know the same kind of thing: how close/far away does this or a more appropriate model have to be to fill as small as 12x18" up to a maximum 18"x27" area from a 6000px X 9000px digital image? I'd like to keep the zoom/macro to optimum sharpness setting. TIA, GEB

Depends on the focal length of your lens you are using, I had problem with wide-angle lens,like 16mm, 25mm beyond that no problem, but with my Gh2 Panasonic Lumic I go into the Ex-Tele mode which gives 2.6x extra telephoto reach I solve my problem, and with it I get a 16mm Film-like grain effect. Overall a good adaptor.

Download the manual here: http://www.camerauserguide.net/panasonic-lumix-dmc-lf1-camera-users-manual-guide-owners-instruction/18260Take a look at this review of the LF1, it help me decide to buy it, I found it by chance, hope you like it. http://www.theinspiredeye.net/panasonic-dmc-lf1-camera-review-an-amazing-pocket-multi-tool/#more-2506

I liked my older model of the Panasonic Lumix - only thing - I dropped too many times and now it's not working and I really want to get a new camera - but am hesitant about another brand - I am hoping this is the one to get and the people that said the quality wasn't good - I'm hoping that they are wrong. If you print "zoomed" photos - they are usually not as good unless you have an SLR with a zoom lens. I figured that would be the case here.
