Once again, news have reached us that once again Ricoh have been doing it right, once again providing a firmware update for their GXR camera that once again includes a bunch of new functions users were asking for.

The new firmware for the Ricoh GXR adds, among other things

• Spot AF area selection
• Macro AF area selection
• Faster AF speed
• EXIF 2.3 support
• etc.

According to dpreview, the firmware will be available for download from tomorrow on.

Seriously, why can’t other brands provide a service like that as well?
