![]() The GR series has a storied history, especially among street photographers, and the GR III is the latest digital iteration of the camera. ![]() ![]() Before old-school film cameras and vinyl record collections became the sine qua non of hipster cred, the Ricoh GR camera was there, and has been there since the first GR compact 35mm film camera hit the streets in 1996. Before Fujifilm reinvented retro chic in its X-series digital cameras. But, at least in one niche, Ricoh has always been there. Ricoh is probably more famous for having acquired the Pentax brand (via Hoya) in 2011, than it is for any particular camera. Sony, Fuji and Panasonic seem to have dominated market visibility, if not the actual market, for high-end mirrorless cameras systems for the past five or so years, with late-comers Canikon gaining traction with their most recent offerings. Ricoh is not a brand uppermost in the minds of most photographers on the market for a new mirrorless camera.
