Overall, the Ricoh is perfect in my opinion. Nothing really needs to change, be added, or removed, but just my thoughts-
- Increase power. Battery life is fine, but if the camera becomes more powerful overall, it would help with reducing lag with making multiple snapshots in a row when working a scene intensely.
- Snap focus closer than 1 meter. Maybe .5 meters? .25 meters? Macro mode snap focus? This would help with running and gunning on the streets to get extreme close up shots of details on the fly. The problem with shooting street and single point auto focus is that it is too slow. Yes, I want to get closer than 1 meter! I want to be able to snap focus right up on somebody’s skin.
