The Ricoh GR IIIx Urban Edition: The perfect partner for urban exploration

The Ricoh GR IIIx Urban Edition: Your Companion to Explore the City

The GR IIIx series was developed to meet the expectations of users seeking a model that offers a different perspective from the highly popular RICOH GR III. The GR III is equipped with an 18.3 mm wide-angle lens (28 mm in 35mm format) and redefines the core values of the GR series by optimizing image quality, snap shooting capability, and portability. The GR IIIx 26.1 mm lens provides the field of view of a 40 mm lens in 35mm format, closely resembling the user’s natural perspective. Depending on how the lens is used, this versatile field of view can produce different image renditions: you can capture a shot similar to one taken with a moderate wide-angle 30 mm lens, or create a completely different visual expression, evoking the feel of an image taken with a standard 50 mm lens. The camera also offers a range of new or improved shooting functions, allowing photographers to edit captured images according to their preferences.
