Pros: Better resistance to high ISO, dynamic range, lens, operating speed

Cons: Mini SD card, dedicated accessories

Opinion: Compared to the Ricoh GR3, the GR IV improves in several aspects. The most relevant ones for me are: a better hold at high ISOs, with photos that can also be used at 12,800 Iso without denoise; the dynamic range is more extended; the most engraved lens; in general the operating speed, in particular the awakening from standby. With the barbell button I needed muscle adaptation so as not to crush it inadvertently. For the rest, the usual good things of the GR starting with the silence of the shutter, the central shutter, the responsiveness of the touch screen, the size. I don't like the use of micro SD and accessories that cannot be used with previous series, see the lens cap and the extension for filters and additional lenses. Watch out for the button on the left side because it is preset not only for the video but also on the type of memory, micro SD or internal, and with a long press you could inadvertently change the destination of the files. In my opinion, the GR IV represents not a revolution but a general evolution of the series.

Pros: Compactness - Image Quality - Construction

Cons: Price

Opinion: Hello, I bought this new camera a little while ago, I consider it 100% portable with spectacular image quality. I have had several Fuji X100 series, very nice but bulky. I would like to point out that the GR World app also does its job very well and if kept active the camera also stores the geolocation. 100% satisfied Greetings to all

Pros: It is the only true pocket that produces quality images

Cons: Grip and position of the shutter button

Opinion: I state that this is my first GR, so I cannot make comparisons with previous versions. Coming from the world of Canon SLRs, I am absolutely amazed at the quality of the files that this "toy" can produce. It's super fast (from pressing the power button to the first shot doesn't even take a second and a half), although for my approach this parameter is not essential. The lens is incredibly sharp, the noise at high ISO is acceptable and in any case it can be easily managed in post-production (I use DxO PhotoLab 9). I really like the ability to set the mode to P and then be able to vary the three parameters (shutter speed, aperture and ISO, the latter by means of exposure compensation) as if you were in manual. Then all you have to do is press a button to return control to the camera. Despite having normal sized hands, I find the handle too narrow, and in fact I bought a bracket that increases its size and makes it much more comfortable. I have no problem with the dials and rear buttons, whose positions and functions I find quite intuitive. On the other hand, I feel very bad with the shutter button, which is too far back for me: it should be in place of the front ring (the one that controls the aperture in the manual), swapping the positions of the two controls. I'll definitely get used to it, but I don't understand the logic of the arrangement chosen by Ricoh. The autofocus has a curious behavior, it sticks in situations that would seem to be completely quiet and performs very well in others apparently more challenging. I believe that once you understand the limits and strengths it can be exploited quite well. I expected more, in terms of functions and camera management, from the GR World app, which still allows me to transfer the files on the card or in the camera memory (53gb, which perhaps would be enough on their own) to my smartphone and then upload them to the cloud. The transfer from camera to smartphone takes just over a second for jpg files (at maximum resolution) and about three seconds for raw, I would say more than acceptable since you don't have to play with cables and the like.

Pros: Battery, AF, Overall Speed

Cons: The new barbell is in a position where you move it unintentionally every 5 minutes!

Opinion: Smaller than the IIIx, from what they said I didn't think but the reality is that in the case of the IIIx I had before it dances inside. Instant power on, the fastest of hundreds of cameras I've had. The menus have been reordered by grouping the items in a more logical way even if inserting a recipe is not yet exactly lightning fast and I would have made a specific menu, however it has improved. The battery seems to hold up well, the IIIx if I fiddled a lot with the menus ran out quickly while this one does not. The AF is a little faster, quieter and certainly hooks much better but it is still not absolute perfection: in particular situations it has jams that I can't explain, for example in dim light under the table if I point the solid beige floor without contrasts unexpectedly it hooks it well and much better than many others, Even the legendary Sony, but then if in the same situation I aim for a nearby black cable to give it an additional source of contrast that should help I get the opposite effect and it does not hook, a really strange thing that later I was able to replicate in other situations as well, looking for contrast as you usually do with low light in this camera seems not to help, the machine focuses very well without it. It's mysterious but I'll get used to shooting without doing it, but I haven't yet experienced if at a shorter distance it's the same. Ps: I work at the central point. The built-in memory is very convenient, they should all have it, moreover it is very fast, certainly more than one external card has been optimized. Let's say that the main differences that are really worth the switch are in the AF and in the battery, but the camera has many small improvements everywhere, basically I am very satisfied. Today I have included a few recipes that I had on the IIIx that gave me great satisfaction and I want to compare the performance but I have no doubt that the new sensor can only be better than the old one.

Pros: Amazing file to die for, perhaps the best compact apsc. Spectacular lens, very nice simulations, ready for use. Very fast when you turn it on. Quality without compromise

Cons: During the day with the sun sight obligatory. But that's okay too. Obviously designed for photography. Useless video section, but those who approach this jewel already know it. A bit expensive, but good things are paid for.

Opinion: High-end machine for being a compact. It holds up great compared to competitors in the higher price range. I recommend both the 40mm griiix and the 28mm. Different experiences. If I love to shoot without wasting time, this is the camera for you. If you're lazy, it's the right machine. Zero hassle you put it in your pocket and it's ready to give you wonderful shots. Little noise even with high iso. I personally reach max 6400. But it holds up very well even at 12800 and more.
