Great, I don’t have to answer them anymore

Qualities suffer once you go above ISO 400 though. But for daylight photos, the camera is amazing!

Found answers to two of my questions

iso1600
anti-shake mechanism that works

By the way, $370 per Gizmodo. i guess that’s street price but they didn’t say.

Exposures on auto mode are phenomenal.

What’s your feeling about the lack of image stabilization (as far as I can tell) after using the Canon 800 IS ?

What’s the ISO range? Any spot meter?

Thanks for this review. Am really intrigued.

Thanks Luc. I haven’t got a chance to try DMC G1 yet. I normally don’t use a viewfinder when I take my shots so this doesn’t really bother me (yet)

I just got myself a Panasonic DMC G1 which is not a real SLR, still more like it than the Ricoh, I suppose. What I really like about the Pana is that it has a viewfinder like a SLR but with a display inside. This allows you to have all the advantages of live view, without being bothered by sunlight.

Still, the Ricoh does seem to be a good camera and your pictures are of impressive quality, certainly those like the melbourne night shot.
