The ideal snapshot camera captures your precious memories forever

Compact, user-friendly, and with an unobtrusive design for spontaneous photo shoots—the ultimate snapshot camera.

The new GR IV is even slimmer and more compact than its predecessors. The grip and thumb rest on the back have been optimized so that the camera fits naturally in your hand and can be held securely. The layout of the buttons and control dials has also been improved, and ADJ mode is now available on the control dial, offering improved mobility suitable for a snapshot camera.

Speed and precision are also essential for a snapshot camera. With a start-up time of 0.6 seconds, the GR IV is unbeatably fast. AF speed and precision have been
optimized thanks to a faster lens drive with the new lens barrel, faster image
data readout, and the AF algorithm. At the same time, AF performance in low
light conditions has been improved.

For reliable focusing, the GR IV F Drecognizes faces or eyes. And when you need to act fast, use the unique “Full Press Snap” function, which can now also be selected
directly via the mode dial. Pressing the shutter button fully sets the focus to
a predefined focus area and eliminates the focus delay when pressing the
shutter button halfway, which improves responsiveness in dark areas, for
example, so you no longer miss photos when shooting at night or in dark places.

For quick exposure control, the GR IV now features a hyper function in program mode. By turning the front or rear dial, the camera instantly switches to “aperture
priority” or “shutter priority” mode.

Depict an even more vivid world – unique recipes for image control

The GR IV is equipped with 14 image finish recipes for image control to help you creatively realise your image ideas. New additions include the film looks [Cinema (Yellow)] and [Cinema (Green)].
Another new feature is the option to influence grain. With all presets, it is possible to change the image control and even create and save your own recipes.

Intuitive controls - touchscreen monitor

Simply touch the LCD monitor to move the AF
frame and navigate through the menus. You can also change the zoom factor by
pinching or spreading your fingers on the monitor during playback, swipe to
browse images, and double-tap during shooting to move the AF frame to the
centre of the image.

Intuitive exposure control – EV compensation button

The exposure compensation can be operated quickly and intuitively with your thumb using the EV compensation button while holding the camera during shooting.

Be part of the community

With the GR Cities project, GR photographers are connecting with each other worldwide.
GR photographers around the world use hashtags such as #shootGR_Rome, #shootGR_Madrid, #shootGR_London, #shootGR_Paris or #shootGR_Berlin to mark the places where they take pictures. Use the appropriate hashtags and connect with GR photographers around the world #shootGR

Share with the whole world from your camera

The GR IV provides stable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth® connectivity to smart devices.
This allows you to use the special GR WORLD app to easily import images and
share them directly on your social media channels, take remote-controlled
photos and send location information to the camera.

You can find an overview of ‘GR WORLD’ on this page.

You can download the app for free from the App Store or Google Play.

Outstanding robustness and durability

The magnesium alloy body is lightweight yet sturdy, giving the GR IV outstanding durability.

Dust protection

The UV/IR protection filter in front of the image sensor has a new dirt- and static-repellent coating which, in addition to its cleaning function, uses ultrasonic vibrations to prevent dust and dirt from causing spots on the images.

Lower environmental impact.

Sustainability is an important issue for us. That is why we use environmentally friendly packaging materials.

53 GB internal memory

The GR IV has an internal memory of 53 GB. This provides sufficient space for approx. 3,498 JPEG images, for example.

Accessories making the GR System

Many of the current accessory products fit the GR III and GR IV. However, new products have also been developed, such as the new GF-2 flash as optional accessory

The newly developed GF-2 flash is compact and small. It is automatically controlled by the GR IV and offers greater expressive possibilities not only for dark subjects but also for backlit scenes.

New image angles

The crop setting provides image angles equivalent to 35 mm and 50 mm focal lengths.

In addition, a focal length of 21 mm (35 mm equivalent) can be achieved with the optional GW-4 wide-angle conversion lens.

This requires the optional GA-3 adapter, which also allows the use of 49 mm filters.

VonFuji X100F zur Ricoh GR III und jetzt zur IV

"Ich komme ursprünglich von der Fuji X100F, bin dann zur Ricoh GR III gewechselt und habe mir jetzt die Ricoh GR IV gekauft. Und ehrlich gesagt: Für mich passt diese Kamera einfach perfekt. Was mich sofort begeistert hat, sind die Farben. Für meinen Geschmack wirken sie natürlicher und farbtreuer als bei Fuji. Dazu kommt die unglaubliche Schärfe, die Handlichkeit und diese kompakte Form. Die Kamera passt wirklich in die Hosentasche, und genau das macht sie so besonders. Eine APS-C-Kamera, die man einfach immer dabei haben kann, ohne Tasche, ohne großen Aufwand, ohne aufzufallen. Genau darin liegt für mich der größte Reiz. Im Vergleich zur GR III fühlt sich die GR IV spürbar schneller an, besonders beim Autofokus. Auch der integrierte Speicher ist ein riesiger Vorteil, wenn man spontan unterwegs ist und einfach fotografieren möchte. Dazu kommt der 5-Achsen-Stabilisator, der im Alltag wirklich hilft. Für mich ist die Ricoh GR IV eine Kamera, die wie für Streetfotografie geboren wurde. Klein, schnell, unauffällig und immer bereit. Mit dieser Kamera bist du mitten im Leben unterwegs, aber bleibst trotzdem unsichtbar. Genau das macht sie für mich so besonders."

"L'appareil est très bien. Par contre, pour une personne comme moi agée de 73 ans et ne pouvant pas lire une documention sur un téléphone, il est impensable que pour ce prix il n'y ait pas moyen d'obtenir une version papier de cette documentation. Je comprends que vous ne la mettiez pas dans toutes les boîtes mais il serait bon d'offrir la possibilité d'en avoir une. C'est extrêment décevant"

Works well, but the box arrived a bit damaged

"I received my new camera. Everything seems to be working well so far, but I wanted to mention that the corners of the box were a bit damaged when it arrived. It makes me hope that this isn’t a unit that was returned by a previous customer. I’ll keep testing it, but for now it looks fine."
