I didn't keep an eye on the ISO, but yes at least the writing's legible.

Just noticed that braided pipe behind the hatted man. I wonder how big the tap is?

Loved them all, it's been a very, and I mean a very, long time since I ventured down to London.

Thanks Roxy. London is ever changing but my pics don't show that side of it.

Re: Parliament Square today

Sorry d00d but I hated every minute of being in London. Country boy I guess and all my many trips down were a bit stressed and limited to business. I appreciate your images of the place- a different perspective.

This is Micro Four Thirds, all the rage, Olympus do the same size sensor and compatible lenses but for a lot more £. These sensors are half the size of the top end full frame, 35mm cameras, and give you twice the reach. So 150mm is equivalent to 300mm in old money. I'm pleased with the set-up. ... There's a short promo video on THIS PAGE explaining all.
I do like your photo's & the Panasonic Lumix are super cameras. I might get the TZ80, don't want a too fancy one to replace my TZ60
