While this is a downsized version for posting purposes, I just had this printed in 16 x 20 format and the print is now out for matting and framing.
Q7 set to ISO 400, 1/13 second (hand held), 06 lens set to 42mm focal length f 2.8, JPG format Processed through Lightroom 5 where color was stripped and vignetting was added.
While I do not normally use this camera for such shots it was what I had with me when the photo opportunity presented itself.

Thank you. She is past retirement age and was pleased with the image. When she requested a large format print I took that opportunity to see how well an image from the Q7 would stand up to being printed at that size. I have never printed anything larger than 11x17 format from the Q7 but I believe we had a thread a while back that asked what was the largest print we had made from a Q7.

Very well taken, regardless of format!
