    Ive got the Ricoh GX100
    great camera, you can manually change everything, plus its got a hotshoe for flashes etc, will take aftermarket lenses - not just the Ricoh ones. ive got a great wide angle Nikon for mines.
    The lomo LC-A+ fisheye also fits it too.
    AWESOME macro on it, can take a photo 1cm away from something.

    Not too sure if the GX200 is MUCH of an improvement for the money.

    I spent ages looking at all the various similar priced cameras on the market but whittled it down to the Ricoh. The major thing was the size - i wanted a nice pocketable camera that wasnt stupidly fiddly.

    My mum got my dad a 14mp (canon?) for xmas - was a new model with money off in the sale. Really neat lil camera - but bit too fiddly for my liking.

    If you dont mind the size of the camera then obv taking the step up to a DSLR will always give you better resolution in pics.
