I am really happy with how these came out. I did almost no post processing, just exposure adjustment and cropping to get a straight horizon.
It was a bright silvery sunshine, the lack of viewfinder did not really cause me any issues. I find the camera preserves highlights when on multi-segment metering more than my previous cameras, which is a good thing, no need to look at histogram. So far so good.

 - Nice clouds, bright silvery sunshine. Today was very much f/8 set it and forget it.

 - Worst shot of the day perhaps, too much light off the water. The foliage sharpness in the right corner looks good to me.

 - Another shot of the green hill, this time with the sun behind me. Less dramatic with this lighting.
