Advantages: very good for the money, good quality pictures
Disadvantages: doesn't feel as well made as some cameras.

This is a very good camera for taking pictures with easily and of good quality. It is much better than a lot of small sigital cameras, and if you want to take landscapes then the wide angle lens is very useful. The lens is of very good quality, and I would recommend it if you want to take good photographs but with a compact digital camera. It is easy to get the photographs from the camera uploaded onto the computer and also easy to delete from the ...
...to use and so overall it is a very good camera. For this money this a very good camera that will enable you to take quality shots and therefore I would recommend this to anyone who wants to spend this amount of money on a camera. HOwever, if you don't need 10 megapixels, as many people don't, then a cheaper version of the same camera could be nearly as good. ... Read review

Advantages: small size, great screen
Disadvantages: zoom mechanism keeps jamming;

overall I have to say that I'm pretty disappointed. I'm no camera buff, so I wanted something that'd cope with most eventualities like my old Kodak. This new camera really doesn't cope very well with either extreme of lighting - I thought that this point and click jobbie would do that for me without any problems. on the plus side, it is very small and light - you really don't know it's there which is really useful. The screen is fab too. my main ... Read review

Advantages: Handling, quality, seems to take great pictures all by itself! That great 24mm lens
Disadvantages: Sorry, but if you think the price is high, you don't understand value.

I've had my GX100 for only a few days, but already I've realised it's the digital camera I've always dreamed someone would one day make. This is a true photographers camera and unlike most digitals, it looks as if a photographer designed it rather than an engineer. It has a really great feel - solid and easy to use, the buttons are where your fingers naturally sit. It's fast to use. It has a super lens - the 24mm setting is a pure delight. Good pictures ...
...24mm lets you do that. Decent aperture and anti-shake means indoor pics are doable without the dreaded flash. I use the electronic viewfinder all the time and I wear specs. The ability to set up two "My" settings is wonderful - I use both for B/W - one at 80 and one at 400 giving high quality and "tri-x gritty" respectively. This is just so much better to use than my Nikon D40 although for a technically better result the D40 will have the edge - ... Read review

Advantages: Features, looks, lens zoom range
Disadvantages: Reliability

...Buyers beware! I think Ricoh have pushed the lens/body ratio a bit too far to the point of serously affecting reliability. My daughter was really upset as it failed 1/3 way into her holiday & it was her pride & joy - she really looked after it! Won't buy a Ricoh camera again - when you spend £170 on a camera you expect it to last longer than 9 months! ... Read review

Advantages: I haven't had the pleasure yet of finding any
Disadvantages: confusing menu,

I must just be one of the unlucky ones. I have had to send this camera back to the manufacturers twice and the pictures are still not right. The first time a black splodge appeared in the centre of the screen. When I downloaded the photos the splodge was on that too. The second time the zoom would not go back in, only a few weeks apart. I just cant seem to take an in focus picture and it is so frustrating as I am missing out on so many pictures of ... Read review
