Panasonic FZ50 beats the DSLRs (again!)

Faced with the need for silence but having instructions to capture the
ceremony ruled out using a DSLR with their quaint clatter as a spring
loaded mirror comes to a shuddering halt against hard rubber stops and
the equally noisy "clack" of their shutters... Instead I used one of my
Panasonic FZ50 "santa's little helper" cameras in stealth mode.

No mirror to slap, no vibrations to blur the shot. No need for high
shutter speed = high ISO... None of that stuff but perfect pictures none
the less!

Nice enough looking image, for 640 x 420 size. But I agree about the
silent part, I wish Sony had kept the R1 going and incorporated IS
because it was silent and had a good sensor, unlike most P&Ss.
