Hi Janet.

I'm sure that (up until now at least, LOL) many people here have respected your opinions. There are bound to be a number who would be interested in the details of how you are really noticing the difference in IQ when using the larger sensor of the A7. Care to share?

Well, it comes down to the one weakness of M43 (remember, this is TO ME, and it is not necessarily anything that anyone else would have an issue with), and that is its ability to render very fine tonal, color, and shadow gradations.

Interesting. I wonder if that is mostly down to the bit depth used. Cameras like the D800 can record in 14bit Raw and seems to be able to take advantage of it. I haven't checked the specs of the A7 - I imagine that too is a 14 bit camera?
