I had originally purchased the Ricoh GX100 which really is an awesome camera, it has an amazing 24mm lens and a “snap” mode that is great for street style shooting. What killed me was the 6-8 second RAW write times and inability to adjust the flash output. I want a pocket camera, but I don’t want to loose control. So I went with my original impulse and got the Canon G9 (which I should have went with in the first place, and not spent so much time mulling over the decision). I think I fell for the style of shooting people did with the GX100, more than I did the actual camera. So far, with the exception of the 35mm lens (that I can deal with) and being a tad bulky, I am in love with the G9.
