How much cropping do you need?

That's a stupid question. As much as you can get, until you run out of optical
quality. You can never tell where the picture really is - more pixels gives you
more opportunities.


A longer Zoom retains full resolution with less
cropping.

I'd rather have the same possibilities with "digital zoom," framed after the
fact. Its pretty clear you're just a snapshot shooter, so you probably made the
right choice.

Well, that's better than too bitchy... more like what bob has experience

Sorry, Jeff. I worked professionally with large format cameras for Finely Photo
and as still photographer for catalogue. Cropping is something to be used
sparingly. Learn to compose your photos. 8 mp is just not going to show up
unless you have professional printing gear. On my my very nice HP photo
printer, 8X10s look fantastic from G2, G5, Z1 and even the little Sony U30 can
make a reasonable print at that size. 3mp is really all you need and anything
above 4-5 is just silly. Sell the G5 as I am. These 3 and 4x lens models are
about to go the way of the dinosaur.

Poor Scotty just admitted that optically zooming in reduces MP capture!!!

Bob, I think it's time you took a course in basic reading comprehension,
oops, sorry about that, I'll try it with words of fewer syllables, "Basic
English Reading Skills".

There are at least 4 basic English errors in the comment, shown above.

My guess is that being so itchy is what made Scotty bitchy.

I worked as a pro when you were still in diapers. My first digital camera cost
$250,000,000, and I can tell you the most interesting finds were off axis. (It
had 4 Megapixels in 1978, and could see the edge of the galaxy.) For fashion
shoots you know exactly what the picture is before you take it, for sports and
action shots, you're often shooting blind and don't know what you have until you
look at the results. BTW, I have the telephoto lens for the G5 (Santa was good
to me, too) so I have 7X zoom.

I think you're going to need to talk to either bob or
look in the mirror. You two seem obsessed with
his body.

If Scotty is itchy, it's only a matter of time before you become itchy
as well. That is... if you aren't already.

Not too far off - but I based my claim on the fact that I did some news pics in
the 60's and Booby probably had a bed wetting problem into his teens.

I guess that means you are about due to start wearing diapers yourself, then.
