Ricoh GR III Digital Camera Diary Edition

The Ricoh GR III Digital Camera Diary Edition is a specialized variant of the popular GR III compact camera, designed with creative expression in mind. It combines the renowned imaging capabilities of the GR III with unique features tailored for documenting daily life or creative projects

Metallic Warm Grey Finish

Treated with an exclusive metallic warm-grey finish the GR III’s textured surface is designed to enhance grip for all-day shooting as well as enhance the sense of quality. The rubber grip has a dark-brown finish to complement the warm-grey tones and, when mounted, the natural silver ring cap creates a sense of unity for the camera body.

New Negative Film Feature

As well as the high-quality camera features of the original GR III, the Diary Edition also features a new image-control mode. This control mode provides a negative-film finishing touch that balances rich colours with the somewhat discoloured prints that you would usually find from using negative film.

New Image Count

Another new feature for the Diary Edition is that when powered down the camera will display the number of images captured that day as well as the total number recorded. It will also show the firmware version against the textured power-down graphic with an emboss-type product logo.

24.2MP APS-C Sensor

Approximately 24.24 effective megapixels deliver high image quality, and an anti-aliasing filterless construction delivers high-definition rendering even in the finest details.

Low Noise. Maximum ISO

Original noise reduction processing results in high image quality even at high ISO sensitivity (maximum ISO 102,400). 14-bit RAW recording is also supported for rich tonal reproduction.

GR ENGINE 6

This imaging processor delivers further improvements in high image quality performance, elaborately detailed imaging across the entire sensitivity range, and superb colour reproduction.

High-Speed Hybrid AF

Image plane phase-matching AF delivers high-speed autofocus while contrast-detection AF offers superb focusing precision. The best of these two types are combined to form a hybrid autofocus system.

Shake Reduction Mechanism

This model uses the sensor-shift type Shake Reduction mechanism which delivers compensation on three axes for up to 4 steps.
