Ricoh GR Digital Review at ePhotoZine

April 13, 2006 | Mark Goldstein | Digital Compact Cameras | Comment |

Ricoh GR DigitalePhotoZine have just reviewed the Ricoh GR Digital, an 8 megapixel compact digicam based on the GR Series of 35mm compact film cameras.

“For a compact digital camera, noise levels are quite commendable across throughout the range. The camera produces very clean images between ISO64 and ISO200. At ISO400 there is a slight increase in noise, but the levels similar to that found on most other compacts at ISO200. Things start to get a little messy at ISO800 and above, with high levels of chroma noise present at ISO1600, although both are still very usable due to the noise having a film-like pattern to it. Images taken at ISO1600 benefit from being converted to black & white, where they take on a similar appearance to high speed monochrome film.”
