RICOH GR III
18.3mm, 24.24 Mpx, APS-C / DXProduct details
The new 24 MP APS-C CMOS sensor is the very special highlight. It is movably mounted and thus provides the basis for 3-axis image stabilisation, which is also the prerequisite for the new Dust Removall II sensor cleaning function. With these innovations a new level of quality for image and operation is achieved.
However, the Ricoh GR III also offers proven features. In particular, the film simulation presets, with the option of using various filters at the time of shooting, offer many possibilities for the photographer's creativity. In addition to black-and-white and monochrome (with various effects), positive film, portrait, vivid or luminous, a total of 12 film simulation presets are available, two of which can be customized.
In addition, more than 12 image options, such as film grain or different contrast settings, are offered.
But also the proven macro mode, now already with a close-up limit starting at 6 mm, or the digital focal lengths of 35 mm or 50 mm significantly expand the possibilities of the small reportage camera. Accessories such as a viewfinder or filter adapter with lens shade will continue to be available for the new Ricoh GR III.

Mit der X100VI ist Fujifilm ein großer Wurf gelungen. Als erste Kompaktkamera verdient sie sich unser Ausnahmeprädikat „Super", Das Retro-Bedienkonzept bleibt Geschmacksache. Da die Kamera auch eine „moderne" Bedienung zulässt, kommt eigentlich jeder auf seine Kosten. Bleibt der gehobene Preis von 1800 Euro...
Als Immer-dabei-Kamera hat die GR III viele Stärken: Sie ist handlich und leicht, ihr Bedienkonzept ist übersichtlich, und sie fotografiert mit guter Bildqualität. In Dunkelheit verhilft die kameraseitige Bildstabilisierung zu unverwackelten Aufnahmen. Schwächen sind das langsame AF-System, ein kleiner Akku und der hohe Preis.
Qualitativ spielt die Ricoh GR III in der Liga der kompakten Systemkameras. Dank 14bit-DNG-RAW lässt sich das Sensorpotenzial weitestgehend ausreizen. Aber auch die JPEGs hat Ricoh gut abgestimmt. Die Beschränkung auf die Festbrennweite ist systemimmanent. Dagegen stehen ein eingebauter Blitz, Sucher und Wetterfestigkeit auf unserer Wunschliste für eine GR IV...
- Flotter Autofokus
- Interessantes Hilfestellungskonzept
- Kleines und wertiges Gehäuse
- Gute Menüführung für Kameraeinstellungen
- Wenig Videofunktionen
- Schwache Akkulaufzeit
