[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I was all ready to buy the recently announced Ricoh Capilo R3 as a great digital "streetshooter" when the GR8 came out just a few days ago. However, now I'm a little worried about them coming out w/ an improved "GR-9" next week.....or next month. Also, you got to be concerned about warranty service, if any. Ricoh cameras and dealers aren't plentiful anywhere unless maybe in Japan. Furthermore, in depth reviews of any of their cameras are non- existant as far as I can see. If anyone knows of a good review, please post. Bill nathan.wajsman@planet.nl wrote: This sounds pretty exciting, actually! I currently use a Canon G6 as my pocket camera, but have fond memories of my film GR1, and if this one is the same size, then I will look very seriously at it. If it used CF cards, it would be even better...
