Ricoh Imaging Unveils Ricoh GR III HDF and GR IIIx HDF Cameras with New Highlight Diffusion Filter

Ricoh Imaging unveils the Ricoh GR III HDF and GR IIIx HDF cameras with a new highlight diffusion filter (HDF) to create softer, dreamier photos reminiscent of film photography. The HDF can be easily enabled or disabled, providing flexibility for different visual effects. The decision to incorporate the HDF aligns with the trend of analog-inspired aesthetics in photography, reflecting a broader industry shift. President Ken Curry emphasizes the retention of core strengths in image quality, user-friendly operation, and portability, with the addition of the HDF introducing a fresh creative dimension to snapshot photography. The new models maintain outstanding image quality, capturing sharp, detailed 24.2-megapixel images with 28mm f/2.8 and 40mm f/2.8 equivalent lenses, and feature a new silver finish on the shutter release.
