I used to do some bird photography before the digital age and used SRL with 300mm zoom lens, compared to what I remember of those days I've been impressed with the range and image quality in G3 X. Even with the full optical + digital zoom (= about 100x) image is still ok for record shots, but when staying within the 25x optical zoom range the detail in photos is good.Still early days and haven't got my head around with tuning all the various settings, but attached couple samples.Pasi</blockquote>
