Well, yes and no.  The camera is too large and conspicuous to allow you to shoot and not be noticed.  But one advantage of the 36 megapixel sensor, as I see it, is that one can be relatively far away from the subject and do some serious cropping and still come away with a richly detailed image.

I think my poor results when I was first starting out with the camera were due to not having really learned the various auto-focus options at that point.

And then just take it down to b&w for that Leica Monochrom look?  Sure, why not?

I noticed I’ve got a stubborn little bit of schmutz on my sensor.  The standard method of just selecting “clean sensor” from the menu doesn’t seem to be dislodging this. I guess tomorrow it’s over to Stanley Street to buy some sort of sensor cleaning solution – hope it won’t be raining.
