+1 for the GR
And thats from someone whose favourite lens was the DA21.. well when just taking out a single prime anyway. However all that said I don't find the A version of the 28mm f2.8 too bad. Sure, it lacks a bit of contrast and flares a lot, but it's not a terrible lens. Is the A different to the M version maybe?

Thanks all for the feedback. I hadn't really noticed the light being an issue in number 3, so it's great get these other views. It's probably an easy clone to try out this evening.
All handheld, by the way. The GR does pretty well at high ISO. Like having a little K5 in your pocket

It's a well photographed location, but here are a few pictures from my recent city-break. All shot with the GR, as others have said it's a fantastic little camera. C&C always welcome.

I like small prime lenses for street photography. The DA21/40/70 Ltds make a great pocketable set.
I really like the ~40mm focal length for this type of picture taking, but I haven't decided if I prefer the DA40 or FA43. They are both nice and small. Controversially I think might be coming down on the side of the DA40 because it seems a bit more vibrant.
I also used to like the DA21mm, but now I much prefer to just have the GR in my pocket.
FA43:
Kandy-1233
DA21:
Galle-2308
Colombo-2442

Wow love the picture. Great colours. Stunning. Although I do have the feeling I'd like to see a tiny bit more of what is just off the bottom of the frame.

Me too. I'm loving the GR and if they did a normal and possibly even a short tele, I think I'd be all set for general photography.If they came out with versions with different focal lengths, I could see myself with a set of GR's instead of an SLR.

Hi and welcome! I used to live in Sherborne many moons ago.

I am still undecided as I would ideally like a 35mm equivalent.
I read in some interview somewhere that Ricoh might bring out further GR variants so I am procrastinating as I think the GR is stellar.
