Borrowed a topic from other forum.
By looking at the pattern, Ricoh might introducing GRD V after 3rd quarter of next year.
For me I would like to see a Full Frame or 1" sensor if size and design could maintained from GRDIV. Improve in writing speed, weather sealed, top LCD panel, longer battery life and quick startup and Daido's color preset lol...
What would you wish to see in next upragde and why those features in this tiny camera?
Or it will grow slightly larger (GRD I/II is abit smaller than III/IV)?
Is there possiblities that it will replace GH2 and GW2?
Putting some past GRDs comparison:
