dpreview conclusion

DSLR image quality finally comes to Ricoh's well-respected enthusiast compact. The GR retains its predecessor's excellent and customizable user interface, making it a pleasure to use as a pocketable wide-angle photographers' camera. The JPEGs are occasionally a little muted but the raw files, feature set, and lens quality mean it's capable of outstanding results.

Good for

High quality photography in a variety of conditions, if you're after something small, wide-angle and engaging to use.

Not so good for

Action photography or movie shooting.
