That looks neat. I have a G10 which (I think) uses the same optics and has
increased resolution to 14.7Mp (though the G11 went back to 10. Maybe 14.7 is
OTT) and would be interested to know a few more details of how you did it.

I guess the image fragment you provided was part of a much larger 10Mp image.

Thanks for the idea, and pre-thanks for any more details.
