I'm so impressed with it that I've just started a new <a href="http://lumix-fx9.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Lumix FX9 blog</a>. My plan is to put various tips and stuff about the camera on it as I discover it. Hey Mark,
I think I got mine about the same time you got yours. I’m so impressed with it that I’ve just started a new Lumix FX9 blog.

My plan is to put various tips and stuff about the camera on it as I discover it.

Now that you mention it and I squint, I guess that is an armrest on that closest chair in the last picture. I guess you're right about the noise thing. Now that I think about our building at work, I guess the phones are the loudest part. The geniouses that laid out our floor plan decided to put the IT department in the very middle of the building, surrounded by 3 departments that are constantly on the phone. It gets quite noisy...

The CCD sensor is the same at all ISOs what happens is the CCD/CMOS capacitance data is "gained up" to the proper ISO before it is "binned" into 12-bit channels (the final data is then de-mosaic'd into a 8-bit channel JPEG). Obviously gaining up the sensor data will magnify noise also. :-) @mark: ISO 200 and 400 will be noisier.

We don't have 100 keyboards clicking at once, only about 20-30 :-). Originally, the place was all cubicles but the engineers asked for them to be taken down. Nearly everyone works with headphones in any case so we can optionally tune out everything. Obviously people that are on the phone all the time are in the corner or have their own cubicles. @dave: Image Stabilization on your Canon dSLR is going to be much more effective than Mega O.I.S. on the Lumix. Compensation on smaller cameras is less than on bigger ones like yours. Panasonic did a great job with this one. The shake is noticeably less than in the Casio line. These shots are at 1/15 of a second @ 35mm (35mm effective focal length) so they are a 1 stop past the rule-of-thumb limit—near optimal for a vibration reduction system. @Mark: those aren't the most flattering pictures of me. BTW, doing good exposure in fluorescent lighting is pretty hard. Oftentimes the shots are underexposed because exposure is calculated at the wrong time in the flourescence cycle. These new pocket cameras seem to have no trouble nowadays with both white balance and exposure—only the first shot is underexposed. @chris meller: All the office chairs here have armrests, it must not look that way in the photos or something.

You get to see all your co-workers everyday and spontaneous discussions happen often that advance our product. Fortunately, I like my fellow co-workers, but I could see how this could actually be a negative ;) As far as the chairs, they actually all have arm rests. I'm probably a bit weird since I've removed mine, but everyone else's arm rests seem to be in use :) Hi Chris – It does get noisy sometimes, but in general, I think the open office space is awesome.

The sounds of 100 keyboards all clicking all at once all the time... it'd drive me crazy without a single actual total cubie anywhere. And what's with all the chairs with no arm rests? How am I suppose to kick back, prop my feet up, and catch my afternoon (or morning post-hangover) nap? I'd fall right out! How do you guys stand that office?
