Pretty wide range. Guess that's why Panasonic video cameras have all but become the standard in small to medium production houses.W J Wirthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12916799976437040632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-9897186708714074312013-08-01T07:37:53.588+02:002013-08-01T07:37:53.588+02:00Hello W J Wirth,

I've been taking pictures at 7 megapixels recently (3072 x 2304 pixels) but I have to reduce them to less than half that size for the blog. I love the Lumix cameras, with their LEICA lenses.Ken Broadhursthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04430899802705818716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-79539880012659384072013-08-01T01:08:13.071+02:002013-08-01T01:08:13.071+02:00Once again very nice photos.

The steps on the north side of that church are the ones where Owen Wilson waits every night for the Peugeot to transport him back in time in the film, "Midnight in Paris".<br />(By the way, great and unique views from la Tour Saint-Jacques.

We were very lucky to get a deal for the hotel du Pantheon which is now expensive. You can see the tour eiffel from the Pantheon entrance. <br /><br />I'm enjoying your photos taken from the St Jacques tower and CHM filling it the details.Evelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17824964122794535252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-14819497930562243052013-07-31T07:45:37.619+02:002013-07-31T07:45:37.619+02:00On the first photo, the church with the small dôme...On the first photo, the church with the small dôme, on the horizon, on the right of the Panthéon, is the Gentilly church and the one on the extreme right, is the half dôme [!] of the Val de Grâce church.
