Ricoh GR IIIx Digital Camera Overview

Compact Camera, Elevated Performance

The Ricoh GR IIIx offers a refined take on the iconic GR series, delivering exceptional image quality and portability in a pocket-sized body. Featuring the same 24.2MP APS-C sensor, advanced Shake Reduction, and hybrid autofocus system as the GR III, it introduces a newly designed 40mm-equivalent prime lens—providing a natural perspective, enhanced subject separation, and a cinematic sense of depth that elevates everyday storytelling and street photography.

New 40mm-Equivalent Prime Lens

• Equipped with a 26.1mm f/2.8 lens (40mm full-frame equivalent) designed to offer a more natural, selective field of view compared to the traditional 28mm lens.

• Incorporates high refractive index and low dispersion glass with aspherical elements to deliver impressive sharpness, color accuracy, and minimal distortion.

• The f/2.8 aperture maintains a bright optical performance while allowing for a compact overall camera footprint.

• Dedicated Macro mode enables detailed close-up capture within a working range of 4.7" to 9.4".

• Integrated ND filter reduces exposure by two stops, enabling creative control with wider apertures or slower shutter speeds.

• Built-in crop modes simulate 50mm and 71mm perspectives without the need to change lenses.

Advanced Imaging Engine and Sensor Performance

• 24.2MP APS-C CMOS sensor paired with the GR Engine 6 delivers 14-bit DNG and JPEG images with natural tonality, broad dynamic range, and excellent low-light performance with ISO 100–102400.

• 3-axis, 4-step Shake Reduction minimizes camera shake for sharper results when shooting handheld or in challenging lighting.

• Anti-aliasing filter-less design ensures maximum sharpness; optional AA filter simulation can be activated via the image stabilization system when needed.

• Image Control settings offer 11 customizable modes for expressive color and tonal rendering.

• Multi-exposure capability with no frame limit for in-camera composite creativity.

• Full HD 1080 video recording at 60p, 30p, and 24p adds motion versatility.

High-Speed Hybrid Autofocus

• Combines phase-detection and contrast-detection AF for fast, precise subject tracking.

• Automatic face and eye detection ensures accurate focus on primary subjects in complex scenes.

• Full Press Snap function allows instant capture at a preset focus distance—ideal for street photography and reactive shooting.

• Touchscreen-enabled Full Press Snap supports intuitive tap-to-capture functionality.

Iconic Pocketable Design with Pro-Level Control

• Compact magnesium alloy body ensures strength and lightness for daily carry.

• 3.0" 1.037m-dot touch LCD supports intuitive control, playback, and menu navigation.

• Ergonomic layout includes a large thumb grip and customizable controls (ADJ lever, FN button, and Touch AF) for personalized operation.

• Rapid start-up time of 0.8 seconds ensures you're always ready to capture the moment.

• Single SD card slot with 2GB internal memory for emergency storage.

Connectivity and Workflow Integration

• Integrated Bluetooth LE and Wi-Fi enable seamless wireless file transfer, remote shooting, and geotagging via a connected mobile device.

• Files can be transferred even when the camera is powered off.

• USB-C port supports file transfer and in-camera battery charging for streamlined on-the-go workflows.

• Included DB-110 rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides approximately 200 shots per charge.
