On other discussion sites people still insist on pixel-peeping by examining
tiny areas of the image on-screen at 100% and, guess what, they don't like
what they see. This is why I decided to print the shots and view them that
way.

On a more interesting point, there was a comment that some of the shots had
a 'painted' feel to them which was attributed to the noise reduction. I
think this is a fair comment.

As I said in the article, going to ten megapixels is a strategy I would not
have voted for and I must say I wonder what a 6 megapixel FZ50 would be like
mated to the Venus Engine III.
