If they are OK, post some of their pictures.

The first picture of the river in Budapest kind of reminds me the scene in Mission Impossible. Was that scene happened in Budapest, where the CIA guys found themselves ambushed and ran to the bridge and jumped (or something like that, I am very famous in my family for NOT remember movie details.)

I don't recall the scene of Mission Impossible.....A few months ago I watched a Japanese series call Nodame....which talked about orchester and love. Because of the success of the TV series, a movie was produced and filmed in Prague. I spot out some scene that was appeared in the movie and took these pics.

Thanks for sharing. These are very nice pics.

Yes I can see the difference in the pictures taken with the larger camera & the small camera.

See the following - one from the small Panasonic digicam. The 2nd one with the bigger Nikon D70 + 18-70 lens. Both pic taken with similar sensitivity ISO100 vs 200. Both taken at similar aperture F9 vs F10.

The first pic the lines are not as well defined, the pixels are more jumbled up, and lost quite a bit of detail (e.g. look at the tiles next to the words "Dem Deutschen Volke"). This 'blow up' pictures are taken at 100% crop from the original.

But...
technicality aside, sometimes the composition and timing is more important. In my opinion a picture that tells a story, touch someone's emotion, is far better than pictures that is technically superior but no thought in composition or lack of focal point holding the audience's attention.
