5.0 out of 5 stars I love this Camera!!!, May 20, 2008
By Randy Shelton "Galavoxx" (San Francisco, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I used to have a Ricoh GR1s 35mm point and shoot that I carried with me everywhere. For some time I had wanted to buy a RAW capable P&S with the functionality of a DSLR but I couldn't decide on which one to get.

For awhile I wanted the Canon G9 but after handling the camera, it did not compare to the Ricoh GR1s I was then using. I really didn't want to give up the amazing ergos of the GR1s for something that felt so bulky. I wanted a smallish camera with all the features of a big camera. I then discovered that there was a Ricoh GRD and GRDII but the price on those were little out of my range for a fixed lens camera. So when I found the GX100 I started looking into it. Soon after, I made my purchase.

I have been incredibly pleased thus far. Lens quality is amazing, though not as sharp as the GR series (but that could be the image processor). Ergonomics and functions are all there and it just works and captures amazing photographs. One of my favorite things about the camera are the "My Settings" options. You can select your favorite settings and record them to be selected on the option wheel. So if you love shooting at 80 ISO in RAW at 28mm and 5.1 aperture you can save it to "My1". And if you have some other setting you like save them to "My2". All of your other settings are also saved. Every time you turn off the camera and then back on you can click back to one of the wheel modes and your last used settings are there!!

For some sample images check out flickr. For more serious reviews, do a google search.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dave's 10sec Review- Awesome P&S for photographers!, June 25, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Simply an outstanding camera for photographers, meaning people that like fiddling with apertures and manually white-balancing, etc. I've lugged a DSLR for 5 years and often wanted something more portable, THIS IS IT. Image quality very, very good, RAW if you want it, in-camera B&W is a blast and more than adequate for street shots, 24mm is fantastic, step zoom is very cool, snap-focus and the 'MY' settings are brilliant. Has 2 or 3 weird SW bugs that can lock up the camera but once you learn to avoid or just pop out the battery to cycle it are fixed, wish the dynamic range was greater and noisy at high iso. But pros FAR outweigh the cons, the 'Joy of Photography' is spontaneously back again for me in this pocketable wonder!
