It won't turn on at all and the lens remain retracted. Also, no aperture and shutter priority limits creativity. I am now wary of Ricoh products and I will wait reviews of their products before considering them again.]]>Aug 19th 2008 12:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/19/ricoh-r10-shows-up-with-electronic-level-and-adjustable-flash/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/19/ricoh-r10-shows-up-with-electronic-level-and-adjustable-flash/Aug 19th 2008 12:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/19/ricoh-r10-shows-up-with-electronic-level-and-adjustable-flash/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/19/ricoh-r10-shows-up-with-electronic-level-and-adjustable-flash/
28mm on this camera is going to be more like 45mm on a 35mm camera - that's really not even a wide angle lens. That alone is going to make this camera a lot less useful.

READ THE SPEC BEFORE YOU COMMENT.

- 24 - 60mm (understood, not the best zoom at all, but holy wide angle!)
- starting with f2.0
- less mp and bigger senor (smart! finally someone doing this rather than beef up mp and have small sensors which means noisy photos)
- much better movie quality: 1280 x 720 at 24 fps ... rather than the old 640 x 480 at 30fps. my old old powershot sd500 had that as a movie option ... come on Ricoh get with the times.
- hot shoe option
- conversion lens adaptibility
- etc. etc. thoughts? any other camera out there now better than DMC-LX3?]]>Aug 19th 2008 3:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/19/ricoh-r10-shows-up-with-electronic-level-and-adjustable-flash/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/19/ricoh-r10-shows-up-with-electronic-level-and-adjustable-flash/
Nope, I already have my LX3 on preorder.]]>Aug 19th 2008 4:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/19/ricoh-r10-shows-up-with-electronic-level-and-adjustable-flash/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/19/ricoh-r10-shows-up-with-electronic-level-and-adjustable-flash/
And no, it's not the useless automated flash adjusting system that canon/nikon is using in cheap compacts (tele/wide) - it's manual 10-step adjuster. It's stupid even compare some cheap ass low end canon compact with this camera.

And 28 mm equivalent means that it is 28 mm not 45 mm. You don't have to use another factor for this.

If you really want to find some weak points for this camera you should go to shop and make some test videos and then watch them home. Because the video feature is probably not as good as you expect and as it should be (compared to G9 for example) today.]]>Aug 22nd 2008 11:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/19/ricoh-r10-shows-up-with-electronic-level-and-adjustable-flash/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/19/ricoh-r10-shows-up-with-electronic-level-and-adjustable-flash/Oct 9th 2008 6:25AM
