GR IIIx, Black, Digital Compact Camera with 24MP APS-C Size CMOS Sensor, 40mmF2.8 GR Lens (in The 35mm Format)

Llevo casi 6 meses usando esta cámara y estoy completamente enamorada. El tamaño engaña pero esta camarita es una bestia! Es increíble la calidad de las fotos, y lo versátil que puede llegar a ser. Me la llevo a todos lados porque literalmente cabe en la bolsa de mi pantalón! Si te gusta la foto de calle, esta es la cámara para ti. También funciona increíble para retrato, el macro es buenísimo, en conciertos 10/10 y en general para el día a día, que si eres como yo que le toma foto a todo, el desempeño de esta camarita es indiscutible. Cuando la compré, antes estaba buscando alternativas de la Fujifilm X100VI ya que estaba agotada en todos lados. Después de ver muchísimos video me convencí y esta fue la ganadora, sin dudas vale cada centavo. Un contra que algunos le ven es que no tiene flash, pero para mi que no tomo fotos con flash no me viene ni me va. Yo lo que buscaba era una cámara compacta con imágenes de mucha calidad y que pueda configurar 'recipes' para tener que evitar editar las fotos, y amo el resultado de las fotos que he tomado hasta hoy, nunca he editado una sola. Las fotos adjuntas son directamente de la cámara. Si estás considerando adquirir esta cámara, no lo pienses más y hazlo! Es una joya 💎

Amazing camera. Recipes are a little difficult to get or find. The camera is a great travel camera. It's very portable and takes amazing photos once you set it up. There's no real zoom, you can "crop" the photos in the settings to get a small "zoom".

Update: Simply put, I couldn’t recommend this camera more. I absolutely LOVE it. Everything about it, actually. Goes in my jacket pocket everywhere I go. Takes GREAT pictures. The transfer of photos to my iPhone is also smooth and easy. I’ve been away from photography for a while, and this little Ricoh has brought me right back. If you’re curious about the picture quality, check out my Instagram, “Jasokrish”. (Keeping in mind that Instagram uses pretty aggressive compression.) Just buy this camera. You will not regret it! I received my Griii “Street Edition” on March 6, 2021. If you’re like me, you may have had a difficult time figuring out which Street Edition version this is. As you can see in the picture, my kit includes the Street-Edition camera finish and orange ring. It does NOT include the view finder or the strap with the matching-orange patch. Instead, it comes with a simple plain black strap. For me, I don’t care about those two things. I bought this camera as a replacement for my iPhone. I love the portability of the Griii. And thinking about it like my iPhone, I have never once wished my iPhone came with a viewfinder. I can take pictures from any point-of-view, very stealthily, and practically instantly, with the griii’s snap focus. I think the “limited Edition” kit includes the viewfinder for about $300 more, but it can also be purchased separately, if wanted. For me, I don’t think I’d ever use a viewfinder. Kind of defeats the purpose of the camera. The kit, however does include an extra battery, so that was a nice surprise. (How many batteries this kit includes is not very clear in the Amazon description.) It also includes a cable and electrical plug for charging the battery in camera. There is no external battery charger. Quick one-day impression of the camera itself is just, “wow”. The YouTube reviews all praise the sharpness of this camera, and I can vouch for how detailed my photos are. (Especially compared to my iPhone 11 Pro, which also is a decent camera—but no where able to produce the sharpness of the griii.). Ease of use, after living with YouTube instructional videos for a year or longer has also been a welcome surprise. It’s really simple, or as complex, as you want to make it. My first few shots have been impressive. I actually said, “Holy crap” when I looked at the pictures on my camera for the first time. Transferring images from the camera to iPhone is also very simple. Works through wifi or Bluetooth, which is sweet! I will update this review as I go. So far I’m absolutely loving this camera.

Excelente Cámara, muy Compacta y toma fotos muy buenas

The photos online of this camera do not do it justice. It is small, sleek and has minimal branding. The photos suggest a cheap, plastic little point and shoot, which someone might mistake it for at a distance (Good! It doesn't draw attention). But, it's a magnesium alloy shell with high quality finishes. It feels solid, well made, and built to last. The photographs from this APS-C sensor are excellent in jpeg. Just as good as from a Fuji, Nikon, Canon or Sony with the same size sensor but in a far smaller body. The new 40mm lens is sharp. I like the automated cover for the lens when it is turned off/on so you don't need to handle a separate lens cap. The menu options are just as robust -perhaps even more so when it comes to snap focus- as other the other APS-C top players. This camera has countless menu options to configure it however you wish. I was debating between this or the Fuji X100v (I owned the original X100, loved it and still love Fuji X series cameras). I looked at an X100v at a store to confirm again it is not pocketable in a front jeans pocket, which this GR IIIx is. It's also light enough to carry in your front pocket all day. I really thought I would miss the EVF/viewfinder but the LCD achieves the same functionality albeit not close to your eye. This was my biggest concern but it actually makes it more discrete using the LCD screen rather than a viewfinder. The touch LCD can also be used to focus and trigger the shutter for greater discreteness either in Snap Focus or various standard AF/AE/Shutter modes. The app works as advertised but it's not ideal for moving large batches of RAW files so I just use a SD card reader with my laptop. The battery is one of its biggest knocks and it should be double the size, but it's good for a typical day of high volume shooting for most people without heavy use of offloading the photos via the app afterwards or constantly playing with menus. I just turn it off after every sequence of shots. I will still buy an additional battery and charging station for backup. In manual mode, I have it set to adjust the aperture, shutter speed, and ISO with one hand and three dials. Tip 1: the included wrist strap just needs to be knotted toward the bottom to make the opening a bit smaller for most people. Tip 2: A thumb grip is not necessary for most people and will make it less pocketable. There is a bump to rest your thumb by the playback button; just rest it at the inner joint of your thumb, not the top of your thumb, and it is a secure hold. Tip 3: definitely get glass tempered screen protectors. Ricoh, which also owns Pentax, is less well-known than the big players but is respected but its peers. This is definitely a mighty little one handed shooter. Very pleased with the GR IIIx.
