Rico, any thoughts on what is going on with the X20's JPG engine? Are your first three photos in post #24 shot in RAW and converted to JPG with the camera's built-in converter? If yes, in the X20, is there a difference in the results of shooting RAW and converting to JPG with the built-in converter vs. straight JPG photos?
Not sure if you had the opportunity to look at these photos. The smearing of the faces (even at these low ISO photos) is bad.
