Looks like there is such a thing as intelligent chimping! Have realised that LCD tends to make image look over-exposed when it isn't; need to learn about histograms to make it all more controlled.

BTW, though only of interest to those wanting lightweight kit, the FZ7 allows quick transfer between LCD and viewfinder of the whole works and also shoot screen in viewfinder (with eye correction like binocs) yet review on the LCD, both with histogram.
