Latest Review Posted	Ricoh GR background: I have K5 and I have about 10 lenses (AF and MF) and had about 10 more. I have been looking for compact camera that will have small size and look simple but that give best quality. Why? for traveling in places where its better to have DSLR hidden. Review after 1 week of use: Form factor: all look very simple but it feel proper in hands. grip is ok for me as I mostly take photos by two hands. Pros: it is real pocket camera. simple black beauty. Cons. front ring covering the adaptor connector is wobbling Main sensor: best in class from K5II - I've started to thinking to change K5. Lens: it is real super limited lens. Exposure: Multi Exposure is working much more neutral than K5. I make similar photo by K5 with 18-35@ 18/2.8 and GR and got overexposed picture from K5. AF: work uneven. I have to learn all his pros and cons. Pros: can be set in street mode +2m and snap. Cons: i have no idea how to turn off green light. Work sluggish in low light. where sensor can make good photo AF say goodbye. Menu: still learning. Leaf shutter: leaf shutter -> No vibration -> 1/15 hand-held could be sharp. No SR so mostly 1/40 is minimum. As every choice you have to know trade offs. GR is limited to its lens. but Lens and sensor is so great that in its area nothing (besides nikon A) could beat Ricoh. there are other option but all of them are bigger, have poorer image quality, but mostly are much pricer. Pros: have great bokeh! Pros/Cons: as every pentax need to use D...
