Ricoh GR II Digital Compact Camera

Ricoh GR II

Picking up where the original Ricoh GR left off, this new version includes a new lens, new processor, Wi-Fi and NFC for complete connectivity, GR Remote which allows you to control your camera using a smartphone, a super-fast start up time as well as a range of new art effects built-in.

The new 18.3mm f/2.8 lens (28mm equiv.) features 2 high-precision optical elements, and a high-refraction lower dispersion glass element. Even wide open at f/2.8 this lens provides superbly crisp images whilst the 9-blade iris produces a pleasing natural Bokeh to the background of the images. The 16.2MP CMOS sensor offers high-sensitivity with low noise shooting at ISO 3200 in most situations, though the ISO can be boosted to a maximum of ISO 25600.

Built in Wi-Fi and NFC allow easy connectivity, making remote shooting, image sharing and editing a simple task.

A super-fast 1 second start-up time allows you to react to every moment, with the Full Press Snap option offering the chance to shoot at a preset distance, straight off the button, an ideal function for street-photography? If you have a bit more time to compose your shot, the aperature preview button allows you to check the depth of field before you hit the button and commit.

In short, the GR II is a capable compact which packs a wide spectrum of features making it an ideal choice for those wanting a one-for-all compact capable of truly impressive photos.
