Ricoh GR IIIx Digital Compact Camera - Black, 24MP APS-C CMOS Sensor, 26.1mm F2.8 GR Lens, Supports SD Memory Card

Newly designed, high-resolution GR lens The RICOH GR IIIx incorporates a newly developed 26.1mm F2.8 GR lens, which harmonizes exceptional image quality with a slim design. Unlike past GR-series models which featured a 28mm wide angle of view for exaggerated perspective, this lens provides a 40mm standard angle of view in the 35mm format, delivering images with a more natural perspective and a more truthful sense of depth for a completely different type of street photography. The newly designed optics incorporates two aspherical optical elements at most effective positions to reduce distortion and chromatic aberration to a minimum, while effectively minimizing the generation of flare and ghost images when shooting against backlight. In macro photography, the camera allows the user to move in on a subject to as close as 12 centimeters from the lens front end. Coupled with the standard focal length, it captures close-up images with a natural perspective, set against a beautifully defocused background. It also comes equipped with an ND (Neutral Density) filter, which closes the aperture down by two stops to capture high-contrast, high-resolution images with a variety of scenes and subjects and under varying shooting conditions. Its nine-blade diaphragm mechanism creates a natural bokeh (defocus) effect and a truthful sense of depth at open and larger apertures, while capturing beautiful light beams at closed-down apertures.

• [GR with a 40mm angle of view] A focal length of 40mm provides a highly versatile angle of view that is close to the effective field of view of humans. You can enjoy snap expression with a new angle of view that has never been seen before.
• [The ultimate snapshot camera] GR unchanging concept: High image quality, Quick response, Portability, and Evolving
• [High image quality] Equipped with a GR lens that realizes sharp images, a 24.2M APS-C sensor, and a GR engine 6 that achieves both advanced image processing and response.
• [Quick response] High-speed startup of about 0.8 seconds after the power is turned on. Equipped with high-speed hybrid AF that delivers both high-speed autofocus and greater precision.
• [Portability] Controls are improved while maintaining the pursuite of portability.
