'Ricoh are well known for delivering responsive cameras, and the GR II certainly continues in that tradition. '

'The Ricoh is specialised, then, but it does what it does exceptionally well.'

'unique and ambitious camera'

'The lightweight, compact Ricoh GR II is well designed, and its APS-C sensor allows for shallower depth-of-field than do the smaller sensors in competitors.'

'Top-notch high ISO performance'

'The supplied external flash worked well indoors, with no red-eye and adequate exposure. '

'This is a great step-up camera for anyone who feels shackled by automated settings as well as a great on-the-go camera for anyone accustomed to a DSLR. '

'brilliant camera'

'It has a host of new specifications and features that should make it a superior camera to its predecessor. '

'Advanced yet pocket-sized.'

'The camera is easy to hold, with a good-sized (though somewhat slippery) right hand grip.'
