They are both subject to the vagaries of time at this point. Overpriced... do you have a similar cheaper film compact you are looking to step up from? If not I would start with something slightly ...

This is why I love the GRIII so much, it captures the subtleties of light and shadow so well!

I haven't had the best luck with dust and my GR cameras, but here's the thing: they're fantastic cameras, and the dust cleaning is covered under warranty. So my strategy (learned over time and ...

It's not a new image processor, it's just new firmware. The GR 6 engine is "new" for the GRIII and a lot of the ad copy for the GRIIIx is just copy-pasted. DPR headline notwithstanding. The body is ...

What you're describing is exactly what Ricoh is adding to the GRIII via firmware, and will come on the GRIIIx. It's called Max DoF program line.

There's zero reason to doubt it.

Max aperture means just that: the camera will use the maximum aperture available. This means LEAST DoF. Ricoh is adding max DoF to the program line in an upcoming firmware update. That'll be what ...

Don't sit on your GR! That makes me sad.

I commented this early on in the article lifetime as well. No response at all. It's quite misleading in the title.

Where are you finding these cheap GM1 bodies? They are priced a lot higher than comparable somewhat larger M4/3 bodies in my experience.

It'll be the same screen, I've never had any issues with it in bright sun as long as you crank up the screen brightness. Which, I'll add, doesn't mess with the contrast or colors at all. I have ...

I am much more interested in the teleconverter if it really will give uncropped 60mm at 24mp! I suspected that it would vignette way too much at the full, uncropped frame, so if this turns out to ...

I consider the high ISO to be much better than many APS-C cameras. Not sure where the comment came from. I am quite satisfied with the look of ISO 12,800 shots, which is more than I can say for ...

The GR's snap focus feature can't be understated. It's the only system that behaves like a traditional focus ring on an old-fashioned lens with detailed focus zones, and utilizing it for street ...

It's not an updated processor, the language is consistent with the GRIII and incorporates firmware updates which are coming to the GRIII.

You are correct that, with the 20MP sensor that has made its way into most of the models at this point, IQ is not going to be a consideration, and if people try to convince you that it is, they're ...

The nice thing with M4/3 is that it's not too hard to get that "filmic" grain look, indeed it can be rather hard not to, so it's often best to embrace it. I really don't mind it. The violinist ...

In my experience, with the 16MP sensors, you need to "embrace the grain" at higher ISO levels rather than try to make it disappear. DXO's DeepPRIME NR is about the best to try and recover detail ...

The Mark II does have somewhat awkward grip. I have a GariZ leather half case on the way. It solved my grip issues with the GX85, I'm confident this one will do the same for the EM5 II.

Oh, I agree with you, polycarbonate is not actually weak. I've owned more Panasonic cameras than Olympus ones and a few of those were polycarbonate (GX85 and GX9) and they were/are very tough ...
