Hot GR III Diary Edition Digital Camera Point & Shoot

The Ricoh GR III Diary Edition Digital Camera has all the features of the standard GR III model plus new functions, including a new image-control mode for creating photos that appear as if they originated on negative film, the ability to display more information on the shutdown screen just before the power is shut off and enhanced Smartphone integration.

The Ricoh GR III Digital Camera is portable enough for everyday photography, but its results are far from common. While remaining true to its design as an approachable point-and-shoot camera, the Ricoh GR III Digital Camera demonstrates Ricoh’s commitment to quality optics packed into a compact design. With superb image quality and speed, the Ricoh GR III stays at the ready-to-capture split-second photo opportunities that you’ll only get one chance to catch. The GR III also offers incredible video capabilities that make this a camera well worth experiencing.

FEATURES:

Special Finish – The metallic, warm-gray color and textured surface of the RICOH GR III Diary Edition camera body are designed to reflect the camera’s reliability and quality, with the textured finish also ensuring a firm grip. The attractive finish also gives the camera an appearance that it is more than an imaging tool, as the warm color helps the camera “blend” easily into daily life. The grip rubber has a dark-brown finish that complements the camera. The ring cap with a natural-silver finish, accentuates the warm-tone camera body.

“Negative-Film” Image Control mode – “Negative-Film” has been added as a Image Control mode. by adjusting the color tones based on various negative films, the perfect balance between the faded look of a photo printed from negative film and well- defined colors has been achieved.

Power-Off Info Display – In addition to the number of shots taken on the day, the total number of shots and firmware version can now be displayed (conventional display of only the number of shots taken on the day is also available).

Enhanced Smartphone integration – Smartphone integration has been enhanced with a power-off function from ImageSync now available. You can check and transfer images and turn off the power while the camera is in your bag.

Shutdown Screen – Exclusive to GR III Diary Edition – When the camera’s power is turned off, the camera displays an original shut-down screen featuring the original, emboss-type product logo, against a background harmonizing a fabric-like texture and a color symbolizing the camera body finish.

High resolution and high contrast. Introducing the sharp imaging of the newly developed GR lens – The Ricoh GR III’s newly designed GR lens was developed for even better image quality. This lens uses a slim optical system with six elements in four groups while maintaining the 18.3 mm (35 mm format equivalent: 28 mm) focal length and brightness of F2.8. High-refractive index, low dispersion glass, and aspherical high-precision molded glass lenses are optimally placed in the lens construction to suppress distortion and chromatic aberration to the absolute limit, delivering a high level of sharpness. This results in images that are sharp and clear across the entire frame even from the widest aperture setting.

The detailed descriptive power of the 24.2 M large APS-C size image sensor – The Ricoh GR III is equipped with a high-resolution, wide dynamic range APS-C size CMOS image sensor (approx. 24.24 effective megapixels). It has approximately 1.5 times the pixels of the GR II and an anti-aliasing filterless construction that utilizes the characteristics of the high-resolution lens for high-definition detail reproduction. Both the image sensor and lens are also optimized for the best possible image quality.

Advanced image processing and responsiveness. Meet the new GR ENGINE 6 – The imaging processor on the Ricoh GR III is the new GR ENGINE 6. It elevates the essential high-image-quality performance of the GR for an even greater level of detail. Faster processing makes a high pixel count image sensor and multi-level gradation in 14-bit RAW possible. This also contributes to improved responsiveness and functionality for autofocus and movie.

3-axis, 4-step Shake Reduction for high image quality across a wide shooting range – Camera shake is reduced for crisp images. Shake Reduction is installed while making the body size of the GR III more compact than its predecessor model. It minimizes the shake on three axes, including yaw, pitch, and roll. The in-body image stabilization (IBIS) is rated at 4 stops of shutter speed.

Shooting at ISO 102400 is possible with an original signal processing technology – A high-performance processor “Accelerator Unit” has been adopted on the Ricoh GR III as a powerful way to support high image quality. The signal output by the image sensor is sent to the image processor after being optimally handled. This reduces noise, delivering superb resolution and color reproduction across the entire sensitivity range. It also makes it possible to shoot at ISO 102400.

AA filter simulator for reducing false colors and moiré thanks to Shake Reduction mechanism – The effects of the optical anti-aliasing (AA) filter are obtained with Shake Reduction. Moving the image sensor slightly during the exposure suppresses false colors and moiré. You can choose whether to prioritize resolution or reducing false colors and moiré depending on your subject. Choose [High] or [Low] for effect settings.

AA Filter Selector – Thanks to the Ricoh GR III’s built-in SR system, using the microscopic vibration of the image sensor unit during image exposure, generates the same level of moiré-reduction effect as optical AA (anti-aliasing) filter. Unlike fixed optical AA filters which always create identical results, this innovative simulator allows the user to adjust the level of the moiré-reduction effect from OFF, Type1, and Type2. Bracketing of all those settings is also possible. Depending on your subject, you can choose high-resolution shooting or AA-filtered shooting.

FAQs:

Does the Ricoh GR III Digital Camera Have Image Stabilization?

Yes. The Ricoh GR III Digital Camera has sensor-shift image stabilization, which is an improvement over optical image stabilization (OIS). Sensor-shift image stabilization allows the GR III to make thousands of adjustments per second to make sure you capture a clear image even if you can’t steady your hands.

What Battery Does the Ricoh GR III Use?

The Ricoh GR III uses a DB-110 rechargeable lithium-ion battery. The GR III has a CIPA rating of 200 still captures from a full charge. The Ricoh GR II’s battery can be fully charged from empty in approximately 2.5 hours.
