when flash is activated, exposure compensation controls flash output.

Alternatively, format a SD card using the camera and copy the files over using a card reader.

I have updated my GX100 to the latest 1.18 firmware and am very pleased.
It seems they have improved the already good flash power output.
My recent pictures that I took with the flash turned out perfect, including some macro shots with the flash.
Regards,
John

Advice needed

Bought a GX100 – my first camera and new to photography. Have been using it as P&S but would like to learn to use the other features and take nice shots. Do I need to download the firmware and how do I go about doing this? What filters do I need to start with? Please pardon my ignorance.

Thank you.

if you just bought, it's most likely to have the latest firmware already but you could go to http://www.ricoh.com/r_dc/download/firmware/gx100/procedure.html and use the instructions there to check your firmware version first.

i think the price should be about $820 to $850 now depending on the bundles.

a lot of people jumped on the bandwagon to get this camera without realising that it might not be right for them. a limiting 24-70 lens, noise from iso200 and up (on screen), and a slightly larger and heavier than normal PNS.

it will be an expensive PNS if you hardly take photos.

emm...i can get very good deal at std new set (<600) but still hesitate. i have about 20years of SLR Amateur Experience (since manual 35mm till now digital), own a Ricoh GR10 P&S (i love it a lot during film era).

i'm ok with the lenses, love the color and those SLR equivalent mode.....main concerns are the noise....

I just got mine brand new from MS colour @ $999 for the full bundle, comes with 19mm wide angle, adapter and electronic VF.
Best of all 3 years of warranty. I sees that the price differences between new and used (~$850) is not much, so its worth getting new ones.
