Feature1: Refined depiction

A camera that delivers the intended results. A camera that's advancedyet simple to operate, reliable and precision built. RICOH's GR DIGITALhas evolved to let you pursue your own ideals. Now comes the GR DIGITALII. Boasting its forebears' superior imagery and sharpness that onlythe Ricoh GR Lens can provide yet achieving even higher image quality.In an amazingly compact, slim body - robustly constructed of lightweightdiecast magnesium - the GR DIGITAL II encompasses enhanced expressivecapability and adds new functions, along with improved operability thatresponds almost instantaneously to your commands. It's the kind of camerathat urges you to use it, time and time again.

GR Lens: superb definition with low distortion all the way to the picture edge

The key criteria for lens performance , sharpness and low distortion,have been pursued without compromise. The widely acclaimed F2.4/f:5.9mmlens (35mm equivalent: 28mm) features improvements to compensate forvarious types of aberrations and vignetting on the subject's periphery- areas that are particularly problematic - to provide outstanding sharpnessand high contrast all the way to the corners of the image as the datain the lens' MTF curve demonstrates. This achieves high image qualityparticularly when taking pan-focus shots. Other refinements include reductionin mechanical noise from the AF drive during focusing. The GR Lens isthe story of constant efforts at improvement. The more the user understandsphotography, the more he or she will want to put this lens to use.

New 5-group 6-element retractable lens - the fusion of superb optical technology and mechanical engineering

The brightness of a F2.4 aperture and variousaberration compensation. The superb optical performance of the GR Lensis achieved by a 5-group, 6 element lens that incorporates 3-groupswith 2 aspherical elements and high-precision assembly techniques forsharper images in a more compact size. Use of high quality opticalglass and special lens polishing and multi-coating technologies ensurenatural colour renditions, overall sharpness and excellent contrastcharacteristics. The design of an original "retracting lens system" allowsfor the lens to draw level into a thin, 25mm camera body. In the courseof the lens retracting a portion of the optical system withdraws fromatop of the optical axis, thereby realizing extreme high-precisionand control of the lens unit - a successful merger of exceptional opticalperformance within a slim body form you can carry with you anywhere.

10.01 megapixel,1/1.75" CCD brings out of the best of the GR Lens'characteristics

The GR Lens takes pride in the capability of itshigh-definition lens to render subjects with fine detail and true-to-lifereproduction. To bring out its optimal performance, GR DIGITAL II incorporatesa 1/1.75" CCD with 10.01 megapixels, retaining definition, S/Nratio and dynamic range at previously high levels. Coupled with theGR Engine II, the expression of delicate lighting and image processingalgorithm achieve superb picture quality, with reduced noise and finegradations.

Advanced image engine GR ENGINE II with reduced noise

Along with the GR Lens, another source of thehigh picture quality is the GR Engine. Continuing with the sharp definition,natural noise reduction and faithful color reproduction of its predecessormodel, the GR Digital II incorporates a new GR Engine II that boastsfurther advancements, like significant improvements in noise processingcapabilities at high sensitivity settings. This ensures you can shootat high sensitivity settings without concerns over loss of definitionor chroma levels, thus expanding the range of shooting versatility.In addition to ISO 80-1600 sensitivity, a new AUTO-HI setting is provided.

User-selectable noise reduction function

In scenes where noise is likely to be a problem,GR DIGITAL II gives you the option of activating image noise reductionprocessing. When you want to enhance expression of tightly shaded areasor take time exposures, this ensures excellent resolution, tone characteristicsand color saturation while achieving dramatic reduction in noise.

Seven-blade shutter for nearly round lens performance

One of the most pleasing effects in photographyis the appearance of "out-of-focus" images - the areas inthe picture around the main subject that can be distant and as suchare not in sharp focus. This is heavily dependent of the quality andshape of the shutter. The design of the almost perfectly circular high-qualityseven blade shutter is precisely controlled for correct exposures,from F2.4 to F11* in 1/3EV - even when closed down the light pointis nearly circular - making for striking blur tones and photographicexpression.

* When shooting in the Auto mode, anND filter activates at stops above f7.1.

Macro photography

Macro enables shooting from a distance of just 1.5cm from the subject.Since the AF target can be moved up or down and to the left or right,the macro focus will function smoothly even while the camera is set ona tripod.
