The Konica Minolta Dynax 7D comes from an era where ergonomics and body design were far more focussed on the end user experience, this in depth video explores the camera and it's 6MP CCD sensor!

Wouldn't it be great to have a compact camera with a built in viewfinder and flash at a reasonable price point? After all you can buy a full frame MILC body for not much these days. Ricoh's film GR series was right on target.

Used prices on old premium compacts, are just beyond sensible in 2025. As someone who bought an RX100, I can safely say the Mk I isn't a bad camera, but it's not worth this crazy price. Nor anywhere near that. Don't get ripped off

Not surprising, I will say as I have for some time. Fujifilm's prices were never that good to start with (for a crop system). Even used it's just not that appealing for many buyers. It's a shame they went down the boutique path.

Not enough differences in the Ricoh GRIV v the GRIII, to make it a worthwhile purchase. No doubt the price will also creep up too. This encourages people to buy a decent phone/camera, smaller, cheaper, lighter and good enough.

I gave up on DPReview some time ago, largely felt that they often avoided highlighting issues with reviews, and gave makers an easy time on critique. The Sony RX1R III is a very lazy update, a dated EVF, and no IBIS. Very high price too, no this isn't worth Gold!
