I'm very impressed with this Boris. I believe we have the same phone, but I don't feel I've coaxed the same.quality of image out of mine as this PESO.

I am starting to think that the likes of Sony NEX with couple of adapters (K-mount and Leica M-mount) can be my next enablement. It is unfortunate that Ricoh does not upgrade their GXR system modules (50 mm macro and Leica M-mount) with 16 MP sensor from Sony, or I would have bought these probably on the spot… > > Boris, don't diss the Ricoh Mount A12 - it does a better job than one > might expect for a 12 MP sensor because of the lack of an AA filter > and the offset microlenses. :<) I have one and I'm not sure that > more pixels are needed to get IQ close to the M9.

I'm shooting for many months with K-5 and it spoiled me, you know. I don't care for pixel count so that 12 MP would be absolutely fine. The reviews on the net say that focus peeking implementation of Ricoh is good enough for all practical purposes and that the lack of AA filter is great advantage, as the sensor truly preserves the artistic character of the lens, so to speak. My only gripe is dynamic range because the transition from 12 MP to 16 MP also included the huge advancement in that department. Unless something dramatic happens in the months to come, I can easily see getting a body and a module. Oh by the way, do I understand correctly that then the shutter is closed (that is when the power is off, etc) the module is sealed from dust? So that dust is practically a non-issue here, right?
