You've missed the comment I added to the competition thread. The winner has been reminded and we'll wait a little longer for his response. Hopefully that won't be too long.

Probably the most useful could be the 18-135mm. It's versatile, produces nice punchy images and is WR as well. I use mine most of the time.

It does exactly what you say, so I guess an e-mail to Ricoh via their website is the way to go. It's the sort of thing that could easily be overlooked.

If you're determined to see this as negative, then so be it, but IMHO it's very honest of Ricoh to make such an announcement and admit they need to make some tweaks. It may be an optical issue, but as tests so far have indicated high performance it may be a mechanical issue. Either way, I would rather wait and let them sort it before people start buying it.
I think it would be great to see some of the images. Then those who have such cameras can see whether it's working as expected or whether the copy you have is faulty in some way.

Some great shots there - the GR obviously suits you and your style of photography! Mainly though you have a great eye for an image and you've delivered some amazing images.

Has there been an announcement that the lens is delayed? The SRS site has it marked as "coming soon" and review copies seem to have been circulating. The latter is a sign that deliveries should start soon.
But no, complaining doesn't help. Delays do happen, and sometimes it's customs or shipping problems, so not necessarily under the control of Ricoh.

Where it breaks down is that some winners are a bit tardy in doing the necessary. We've had a good run lately but let's give a little more time this week before we take other steps to get the competition up and running.
