Hi there,

I used to have a range of P&S film cameras. I have a Kodak digital
camera with the 4 MP resolution. The resolution is enough for looking
at the pictures on the computer monitor and for putting pictures on
web. Recently I bought a Panasonic LX1 for its manual control and for
its allegedly sharp lens, which had a resolution of 8MP (which is
equivalent to 6 MP resolution of the normal-width picture). I do not
know what to do with the images. There are too many pixels which allow
zooming on the monitor screen which I do not need.

What else can I do with the pictures besides putting them on web (for
which Pana LX1 has excessive resolution) ? Can I print it out in A4 or
even A3 format (6" x 10 " or 12" x 20", respectively) ? This should be
expensive, something like Au$20 for the A4 print. I shoot mainly
landscapes. I can make a poster A3 size and put it on wall in my
room... this sounds boring. What else can I do ?

(Of course, I can put my pics on a pic-hosting website such as
pbase.com, and show to other photographers... however, the LX1
resolution is too high and is not needed for the web-publishing). Help
me ! Thanks.

Sorry, but why did you buy the Camera?

If it was simply because you like the high tec, then that is Ok.

If you don't want to make big prints that is equally Ok.

Just use it for what you originally intended.
