Some through the window Alpen-Glo from a couple of days ago. Despite low light and an ISO of 800 I was able to show foreground detail. With the Fuji, I would have just shifted the foreground right into the blacks. Did do some selective blurring in the sky.

Garden pond scene, Autumn colours.
Mountain/hill in Mojave Desert, with a few yuccas thrown in. It looked far more impressive in person. iPhone XR
Met this little guy a few weeks ago when I was at Meadowlark Botanical Gardens; he is a permanent resident in the lobby of the main building.

Not close enough for my 200mm, but I work with what I have ?
I hear them near me every night but not until it’s dark. I love owls. Such majestic creatures.
Follow up from yesterday’s photo. No longer have the hematoma and should go home today. Surprised on the messaging system of status to wife, how long the surgery actually was - over 2 hours. Turns out mor complex than anticipated (but Doctors love challenges). Everyone who views is amaze at the three different stitch systems interlinking with the pump. Apparently it began compartmentalizing with calcification. Plus there was a blood clot which is atypical for this type of injury. Should go home today…but several weeks before. Can drive.

Another shot on my 13 Pro and as usual, no filters. This had to have been the closest and brightest rainbow I’ve seen. My daughters are obsessed with rainbows so this was quite literally magical for them.

Bohemian Waxwings in a cottonwood, from about 40 meters away.
Was really testing the camera limits with this shot. Zoomed all the way to 130mm, an equivalent of 360mm. Then a bit of cropping besides. Was putting my boots on so I could get a bit closer when they flew.

I don't like you any more - you made me think of trading my RX100 in for your Lumix

Fantastic!! I thought that was leaves (never tell a tree to leave) ?
LOL Unless you really need the longer end of the zoom lens, I am betting you'll stick with your Sony. The good side of this camera is the compact size, Leica optics (24-360mm equivalent) and the 1" sensor size. Can easily be set up in the P-mode as a P&S for my better half. But sufficiently sophisticated to allow me to be a bit creative. The price is a bit higher than the much touted Mr. PowerShot, but it's quite reasonable for what the camera delivers.I don't like you any more - you made me think of trading my RX100 in for your Lumix

The downside is a relatively slow lens and the typical Panasonic menu mess. The button to switch you to 4K continuous MP4 30/60FPS shooting is exactly where my wife likes to put her thumb. There are all sorts of buttons and touch screen points that let you bring up one feature or another and remembering the various shortcuts is more or less hopeless. While I can easily grab the EBV control, Macro/Manual focus setting, and the continuous setting, everything else has me resorting to a menu dive. Not all that bad as any menu item that you frequently use can be added to a personal individualized menu. So once you get past the learning phase almost all menu diving will go directly to a single menu.
For those who don't mind some extra bulk, there are other cameras in the same price range with faster lenses that share this sensor size. In our case my wife will be the main user of this camera and she insisted we keep the size and shape comparable to the Kodak Z915(deceased) that this camera replaces. That along with the fiscal bar she set, left us with rather limited choices.
That said I do like the camera and feel it was the best choice for us given the rather limiting criteria we set. I've certainly enjoyed getting acquainted with it at a time of the year when our cameras would normally be herding dust bunnies.
