I'm curious to see how the digital movie comes out. Anyway question is, do you download your pictures onto the software provided to you with your cameras, or do you download directly oto Photoshop. We now have cannon software and Lumix and also have the entry level photoshop, and not sure if the lumix software should be the default for Lumix and the canon default for Canon--and then choose photos to work on in Photoshop--or just go directly to photoshop. Sorry for what turns out to be longer question than thought. thanks, Chris Budech Hi Mahesh, quick question:

I often use layers in Photoshop to blend multiple bracketed exposures. It's a wonderful technique to expand the dynamic range of a photo, without introducing noise.

I've never tried any layering. Do you use a layering technique quite a bit?

I have no experience with the Pany ZS7, but I've heard some good things about it. I wish my GF-1 had a GPS function on it. Currently I carry around a the AMOD device which is a small GPS recorder. I sync the times of the AMOD and GF-1. When I download images from my camera, I match up the times of the two devices, and geotag all my shots. It would be great if the GPS was built into the camera already. So, I think the GPS function of the ZS7 is a great feature, provided it doesn't drain the battery too much and it's fairly accurate.

I'm considering the Panasonic DMC-ZS7. Amazon has a good price on it. I't not the GF1, but what do you think a good deal at a little over #300--what do you think of the GPS function is it intersting to have?
