Ricoh GR III Diary Edition Special Limited Kit
The Ricoh GR III Diary Edition Special Limited Kit is treated with an exclusive metallic warm-gray finish with the metallic appearance and surface texture designed to enhance the sense of reliability and quality. This finish and warm colour helps the camera blend more easily into daily life. The grip rubber has a dark-brown finish, creating a sense of unity with the camera body. When mounted, the ring cap and metallic hot shoe cover, both finished in natural silver, accentuate the warm-color camera body and enhance the sense of quality and exclusiveness.
The GR III camera continues the legacy of impressive image quality, fast response, and immense portability. It incorporates a 24.2MP APS-C CMOS sensor and GR Engine 6 to realize smooth tonality, rich colour and high sensitivity from ISO 100-102400, along with the ability to produce high-resolution 14-bit DNG stills or Full HD video.The updated 28mm-equivalent prime lens complements the sensor design with a bright f/2.8 design for everyday shooting with a comfortably wide field of view. Additionally, a first for GR, a 3-axis Shake Reduction System compensates for the effects of camera shake to help render sharper handheld shots when working with slower shutter speeds.
A genuine-leather finger strap, finished in a colour complementing the camera’s warm-gray finish, is included as an exclusive accessory for this limited-edition package. Its compact design makes storage and carrying easier. The well-conceived design and meticulous stitching have been created with utmost attention to every detail, again enhancing the sense of exclusiveness.
The exclusive included case, made of unbleached sailcloth that will become richer and more attractive over the years of use, comes with a belt made of genuine leather identical to the finger strap.
The Ricoh GR III Diary Edition features a new image-control mode that provides a negative-film finishing touch. Based on the visual effects created only by negative film, this mode produces an exquisite balance between rich colours and somewhat discoloured prints resulting from using negative film.
In another new feature, the camera displays the number of images captured during the day, the total number of recorded images, and the firmware version just before its power is shut off.

In addition to full-resolution, wide-angle images, a pair of useful crop modes—35mm at 15MP and 50mm at 7MP—let you simulate the look of working with longer focal lengths.
Prime Wide-Angle Lens
A fixed prime 18.3mm lens offers a comfortable 28mm equivalent wide-angle lens, which is complemented by a bright f/2.8 maximum aperture to suit working in a variety of lighting conditions. The optical construction incorporates six elements in four groups, including two aspherical elements that help to reduce spherical aberrations and distortion for improved sharpness and accurate rendering. Two focusing modes also suit working with general subjects, from 3.9" to infinity, while a dedicated macro setting benefits working with close-up subjects within a 2.4-4.7" range. An internal two stop-effective (ND 0.6) filter is also available for either slowing the shutter speed or permitting working with a wider aperture setting, and the lens has a nine-blade diaphragm to contribute to a smooth bokeh quality. Additionally, the redeveloped lens design also results in greater contrast and measures 1.5mm thinner than previous GR/GR II digital cameras.
Shake Reduction System
Featured for the first time in a GR camera, a 3-axis Shake Reduction System helps to minimize the appearance of camera shake in order to promote sharper handheld shooting at slower shutter speeds. The Shake Reduction System has been optimized for use with the built-in 28mm-equivalent lens, which renders it smaller and more effective. Additionally, the SR unit also offers moiré reduction and dust removal capabilities.
Note: The Metallic Hotshoe cover is available via redemption with optional engraving, this redemption offer letter is in the box that the camera comes in.
