    Ricoh’s latest GR III has one crucial, dreamy, change

    • GR camera systems as a whole, you're going to have to get to know this filter. It can be really unpredictable in what highlights it makes pop. But I think that Ricoh's decision to swap the ND filter for something else is really smart, because in my use of Ricoh GR3 cameras, I rarely put the ND filter on because I rarely had a need to stop the shutter speed down, which is usually what you're trying to do when you put an ND on. So having a filter that I use some of the time is much more beneficial than having a filter that I was using none of the time. The problem is, outside of the filter, this brand new HDF version of this camera is the same camera that came out in 2019. And it brings the total number of GR3 cameras to seven. There are seven versions of this camera, which means that Ricoh has been making a lot of recopies. Per Ricoh's website, when the company launched its very first copier, the Recopy 101, the product's popularity sparked a term. Supposedly, folks would say, make a recopy instead of make a copy. And with the GR3 lineup, they've made a lot of recopies. Let me show you. First, there was the GR3 in 2019, which set the core hardware and internal specs for everything to come. Then in 2020, Ricoh launched the GR3
