Gotten the Preproduction sample unit back for a spin, had passed to keithwee to have a go as well, here's some taken in the past week

Car free day, 1/250s, 7mm, monochrome, mode 2, red filter, , low grain (the contrasty tones is useful with this filter), to be able to change the filters on the fly and see it out of the LCD/EVF makes it a breeze. Slightly processing done on the jpeg with LR, shadows and highlights

A couple of long exposures

Pansonic 7-14mm, High resolution mode, jpeg, 6 stops Haida ND, Circular polarizer. I stretch the timing to 8sec (setting limit and F8) so as to achieve a smooth water and cloud movement. During the process of the high res shot, I could see each frame after every 8 sec, and the final output gives a very smooth cloud motion, like a single 64sec shot. Gotta love this mode, I only wish they can have a much slower setting limit as sometimes it's good to stretch the exposure longer. The good thing is also the long exposure noise reduction is done on 1 frame, hence 8sec, rather than the based on the total time taken.




Olympus 7-14mm lens. Another high res shot (2 shots panorama), F8, stitched with PTGui. I can imagine super hi resolution panoramas with this mode.
