RICOH GR III Diary Edition

The GR III Diary Edition has all the features of the standard GR III model plus new functions, including a new image-control mode for creating photos that appear as if they originated on negative film, the ability to display more information on the shutdown screen just before the power is shut off and enhanced Smartphone integration*.

The GR III Diary Edition features a metallic, warm-gray finished body accentuated with a natural-silver ring around the lens barrel. The textured finish makes it easier to get a firm grip on the camera.

* These functions are also available for GR III- and GR IIIx-series models with the installation of function expansion firmware (version 1.70 for GR III and GR III Street Edition and version 1.20 for GR IIIx and GR IIIx Urban Edition) released on January 20, 2023.

Standout Features

Special Finish

The metallic, warm-gray color 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 attractive finish also gives the camera an appearance that it is more than an imaging tool, as the warm color helps the camera “blend” easily into daily life. 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.

“Negative-Film” Image Control mode*

“Negative-Film” has been added as a new Image Control mode. By adjusting the color tones based on various negative films, the perfect balance between the faded look of a photo printed from negative film and well-defined colors has been achieved.

Power-Off Info Display*

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).

Enhanced Smartphone integration*

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.

*These functions are also available for GR III- and GR IIIx-series models with the installation of function expansion firmware (version 1.70 for GR III and GR III Street Edition and version 1.20 for GR IIIx and GR IIIx Urban Edition) released on January 20, 2023.

Shutdown Screen - Exclusive to GR III Diary Edition

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