Today, the editor will introduce to you Ricoh gxr, a classic model of Ricoh. I hope that the following information related to the price, introduction and evaluation of Ricoh gxr can help you.

2. Introduction to Ricoh gxr
The Ricoh GXR interchangeable lens imaging component digital camera system is the world's smallest and lightest digital camera, which is easy to carry. It has a high-hardness magnesium alloy body and multiple lens imaging components that can be replaced according to different shooting scenarios; The GXR has a variety of customizable buttons, including the new DIRECT button, which allows photographers to see many current settings at a glance. It can also be used to quickly complete complex shooting settings. The direction keys, three sets of My Settings settings, ADJ lever and function buttons have the same functions as GRDIII, which together create GXR’s more powerful operating performance. Ricoh GXR uses a 3.0-inch, 920,000-pixel high-resolution VGA LCD screen. The camera's high-resolution LCD screen has a wide viewing angle and high contrast. The display has an anti-fouling fluorine coating, an anti-scratch hard coating and an anti-reflective coating, making the screen highly visible even in bright sunlight
3. Evaluation of Ricoh gxr
Wide-angle lenses are essential lenses for many landscape photography enthusiasts, and wide-angle fixed-focus lenses can pass Close the shooting distance to obtain greater magnification, and at the same time have a wider background and good blur effect. It is a powerful tool for shooting humanities and landscape subjects. As the fourth imaging module of Ricoh GXR system, Ricoh GRLENSA1228mmF2.5 still uses the high-transparency material of GRLENSA1250mmF2.5Macro as the lens material. Specifically aimed at the problem of edge image quality degradation of wide-angle lenses, this module prioritizes solving this problem in lens design to ensure that the edge image quality will not degrade while ensuring high image quality.
Judging from the real-shot samples, the imaging quality of GRLENSA1228mmF2.5 is the same as that of GRLENSA1250mmF2.5Macro. The imaging effect is close to that of mainstream digital SLR products, which reflects the advantages of fixed-focus lenses in image quality. In terms of noise control, GRLENSA1228mmF2.5 has a very good performance, and the ISO is very high, which will be analyzed later.
In terms of appearance, the Ricoh GRLENSA1228mmF2.5 is just a shortened GRLENSA1250mmF2.5Marco and it is nothing new. After all, it is not so realistic for a modular system to have any breakthrough in appearance.
The Ricoh GRLENSA1228mmF2.5 has a volume of 68.757.950.4mm and a weight of about 210 grams. When loaded with the GXR body, the volume is 113.9x70.2x55.6mm and weighs about 410 grams (including the battery box and SD card). , very portable.
The Ricoh GRLENSA1228mmF2.5 uses a design of 9 elements in 6 groups, 2 double-sided aspherical lenses and 1 ED lens. And because there are not many lenses, even ordinary lenses are all polished with high-lens lenses. The materials are very luxurious (the same as the lens material of GRLENSA1250mmF2.5Marco), which greatly ensures the imaging quality of this module.
The Ricoh GRLENSA1228mmF2.5 has 11 aperture leaves and a circular aperture shape, which can shoot beautiful circular light spots. Also, the Ricoh GRLENSA1228mmF2.5 module uses a mechanical shutter, but this module does not use an independent mechanical shutter. Therefore, the aperture leaf of this module also functions as a shutter. The shutter speed of this module is 180-3200 seconds (leaving aside the B door function, there is no product on the market that can have such a powerful long-term exposure).
However, due to the combination of aperture and shutter, a shutter of 1/3200 requires an aperture value greater than F7.1 to be achieved. At the maximum aperture, the maximum shutter speed is only 1/1000 seconds.
Test available , the highest sharpness of Ricoh GRLENSA1228mmF2.5 module is between F4-F11. But even when using the maximum aperture, the image sharpness is still not low, but the edge imaging is slightly weaker, but if you zoom out a little, the imaging can be significantly improved at F2.8. F5.6 is the best aperture of this lens. Whether it is the central part or the edge, the image is very sharp. When the aperture is smaller than F11, the image quality will decrease, but it is not obvious. Overall, the performance was pretty average.
The concept of Ricoh GXR is actually good. While ensuring high image quality in the early stage, it can reduce the size of the body to a minimum without affecting the shooting feel. This is unmatched by any single camera currently. of. However, the price of the GXR body + modules often scares consumers away. After all, the purchase price of more than 3,000 yuan for the body and several thousand yuan for the modules is enough to buy a powerful digital SLR plus a good Lens, therefore, if the current GXR system does not work hard on the price, it will be more difficult for this relatively alternative product to open up a larger market.
Above we have introduced several aspects of information about Ricoh gxr, including the price, introduction and evaluation of Ricoh gxr. We learned that the Ricoh gxr is a camera with excellent performance in all aspects. It not only has a classic and timeless appearance and is highly recognizable, but also has great competitive advantages in terms of performance parameters, which makes the Ricoh gxr able to It stands out in the fierce camera market and has a large number of loyal fans. Friends who are interested in purchasing Ricoh gxr may wish to comprehensively refer to the above information and make a purchase choice based on their own budget and needs.
