I suspect I've taken more pictures with it that have not had to be cropped. It just seems to cover the field of view that I want to include. This is processed from a jpg with shadows opened a bit with Topaz Adjust 5 HDR filtration. It should also be said that it focuses a heck of a lot faster on a Panasonic body than on an Olympus. (I hope you are not sick of this room, but it has so many photographic challenges regarding light handling that I like to hone my skills on it.)
