Review summary: Raw recording and a superb EVF are standout points....

Pros: Design, Handling, Low ISO images, LCD screen, EVF, Square format shooting

Cons: High ISO noise, Over-powering flash, Over-populated sensor

Review summary: Matt Grayson looks at the GX200 from Ricoh. The high-spec replacement to the previously reviewed GX100.

Pros: Excellent build, Good macro, AF/AE adjustment, Good portrait mode

Cons: Bad noise, Separate viewfinder, Still no shutter priority

Review summary: The Ricoh GX200 is virtually identical to the older GX100 in terms of its design, so a lot of the comments that we made in our review of that camera will be repeated here. You'd be hard-pressed to tell the GX200 and GX100 apart if you put them side by ...
