Or perhaps passed my way : Loupe mode with the PX

Dear Ricoh, please be the first to put out a serious compact with aps-c size sensor and weather resistance. A WR GR would be ideal for me....

Your question emphasizes what I've seen for some time as a potential niche for Pentax/Ricoh to grab and develop : a serious WR compact with APS-C sensor. The ultimate backpacker/traveler camera or...

Agree with Rod. I can't be completely sure, but I believe there is a good market out there for a WR aps-c sensor serious compact. Not only would it be the backpacker's ultimate camera for...

Thank you all for the quick feedback. Cropping is not an option, unfortunately, and I was hoping that there might be a simpler solution than using these "clone" tools in software. I don't...

Hello - I was wondering if there is an easy way to remove a date and time stamp on a photo (feature that was left on by mistake while taking the photo). Some of my travel shots were spoiled by this...

Thanks for the advice, John, much appreciated.

Hello John - could you tell me how you guard the camera while hiking/biking? What case/pouch have you found useful? Any other protection tips for someone who will be using this in a similar way?...

These are a feast to the eyes, thank you for showing them. As an amateur who is considering buying the DPM2 or 1, I am encouraged to see them being used by a hiker/traveller, and I'd like to ask...

forgot to add streetshooters in the rain....

These are great, and I'd get the WR version if I was looking for a DSLR.
But Pentax/Ricoh, is it possible you could put out a WR pocketable APS-C sensor mirorless? A "rugged" GR? For many of us...

I'm talking about a GR-sized model - not that small, but easily in reach when you need it, and out of the way just as fast. If pockets and camera bags are that good, there would be no "rugged"...

Hadn't thought of that, as I don't do that type of photography, but you're right - this type of model would find its place among streetshooters as well.

Doesn't have to be built like an amphibious tank, just good enough so that going out in the rain or getting it dusty aren't reasons to cause pangs of anxiety, or trips to the repair shop. Exactly...

Well, we have small-sensor "rugged" compacts, and weatherproof DSLRs. More or less pocketable APS-C sized sensor cameras have made their appearance on the market as well. So what are the chances we...

I appreciate anyone's serious input, and thank Ray for the time he's given and the photos posted. People here on the forums have to realize that they are frequented by all sorts of users, and not...

Sandy Ramirez has promised to put up a review comparing the GR and the DPM (among other things) : http://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/3486357 So you might want to wait for that. I am also still...

That would be my inclination as well - put on a protector to be on the safe side. My GR will be getting a lot of outdoor use in dry and dusty conditions. I'd appreciate someone posting the exact...

Thanks for this post. The Pentax site states that the LCD screen comes with a covering. Could you elaborate on that, my previous Ricoh camera does not have one. No need for additional coverings?

I'm an amateur camera user, and would really like to upgrade from my P&S to the GR. But I am deliberating between this and the Sigma DP1M. When I look at the building amongst the trees on the...
