Making everyday life friendlier and familiar, the RICOH GR III Diary Edition camera features a metallic, warm-gray finish. The appearance and surface texture have been designed to reflect the camera’s reliability and quality and gives the camera an appearance that it is more than an imaging tool, with the warm colour helping the camera blend more easily into daily life. The GR III Diary Edition has all the features of the standard GR III model plus it debuts a new image-control mode that provides a negative-film finishing touch and an original shut-down screen graphic with an embossed product logo against a fabric-textured background.

The GR III Diary Edition includes the GR III camera in the special metallic, warm-gray finish and a natural-silver ring cap that is exclusive to this model.

Special Finish
The metallic, warm-gray colour and textured surface of the RICOH GR III Diary Edition camera body are designed to reflect the camera’s reliability and quality, with the textured finish also ensuring a firm grip. The grip rubber has a dark-brown finish that complements the camera. The ring cap with a natural-silver finish, accentuates the warm-tone camera body.

Image Control [Negative Film]
“Negative-Film” has been added as a new Image Control mode*. By adjusting the colour tones based on various negative films, the perfect balance between the faded look of photo printed from negative film and well-defined colours has been achieved.
*This function is also available for GR III & GR IIIx series models with the installation of function expansion firmware released on January 20, 2023.

Power-off Graphic and Display
When the camera’s power is turned off, the camera displays an original shut-down screen featuring an emboss-type product logo against a background harmonizing a fabric-like texture and a color symbolizing the camera body finish.

As well, in addition to the number of shots taken on the day, the total number of shots and firmware version can now be displayed*. Conventional display of only the number of shots taken on the day is also available.
*This function is also available for GR III & GR IIIx series models with the installation of function expansion firmware released on January 20, 2023.

Enhanced Smartphone Display
Smartphone integration has been enhanced with a power-off function from ImageSync now available*. You can check and transfer images and turn off the power while the camera is in your bag.
*This function is also available for GR III & GR IIIx series models with the installation of function expansion firmware released on January 20, 2023.

High resolution and high contrast. Introducing the sharp imaging of the newly developed GR lens
The GR lens with a new lens construction was developed for even better image quality. This lens uses a slim optical system with six elements in four groups while maintaining the 18.3 mm (35 mm format equivalent: 28 mm) focal length and brightness of F2.8. High-refractive index, low dispersion glass and aspherical high-precision molded glass lenses are optimally placed in the lens construction to suppress distortion and chromatic aberration to the absolute limit, delivering a high level of sharpness. This results in images that are sharp and clear across the entire frame even from the widest aperture setting.

The detailed descriptive power of the 24.2 M large APS-C size image sensor
This model is equipped with a high-resolution, wide dynamic range APS-C size CMOS image sensor (approx. 24.24 effective megapixels). It has approximately 1.5 times the pixels of the GR II and an anti-aliasing filterless construction that utilizes the characteristics of the high-resolution lens for high-definition detail reproduction. Both the image sensor and lens are also optimized for the best possible image quality.

Advanced image processing and responsiveness. Meet the new GR ENGINE 6
The imaging processor on this model is the new GR ENGINE 6. It elevates the essential high image quality performance of the GR for an even greater level of detail. Faster processing makes a high pixel count image sensor and multi-level gradation in 14-bit RAW possible. This also contributes to improved responsiveness and functionality for autofocus and movie.

Shooting at ISO 102400 is possible with our original signal processing technology
A high-performance processor “Accelerator Unit” has been adopted on this model as a powerful way to support high image quality. The signal output by the image sensor is sent to the image processor after being optimally handled. This reduces noise, delivering superb resolution and color reproduction across the entire sensitivity range. It also makes it possible to shoot at ISO 102400

3-axis, 4-step Shake Reduction for high image quality across a wide shooting range
Camera shake is reduced for crisp images even when taking split-second snapshots. Shake Reduction is installed while making the body size of the GR III more compact than its predecessor model. It minimizes the shake on three axes, including yaw, pitch and roll. Compensation effects deliver as many as 4 steps of shutter speed*.
*CIPA standard. 1/125 sec., F2.8, ISO2000, EV -2, WB: Multi Auto White Balance

AA filter simulator for reducing false colors and moiré thanks to Shake Reduction mechanism
The effects of the optical anti-aliasing (AA) filter are obtained with Shake Reduction. Moving the image sensor slightly during the exposure suppresses false colors and moiré. You can choose whether to prioritize resolution or reducing false colors and moiré depending on your subject. Choose [High] or [Low] for effect settings.
• Sufficient functionality may be achieved when the shutter speed is slower than 1/1000 second.

AA Filter Selector
Thanks to the built-in SR system, by using the microscopic vibration of the image sensor unit during image exposure, generates the same level of moiré-reduction effect as optical AA (anti-aliasing) filter. Unlike fixed optical AA filters which always creates the identical result, this innovative simulator allows the user to adjust the level of the moiré-reduction effect from OFF, Type1 and Type2. Bracketing of all those settings is also possible. Depending on your subject, you can chose high resolution shooting or AA filtered shooting.
