MSRP for the Ricoh GR IIIx comes in at just under $1,000, with the original GR III being about $100 less. Multiple accessories are also available, including a fixed optical viewfinder, teleconverter lens, and compatible Pentax flashes, but we haven't got out hands on those.

Cons:
  • No zoom Lens, Clumsy autofocus, Subpar video

Pros:
  • Large sensor pocket power, Intuitive handling, Quick start up, Sharp raw DNG stills
Cons:
  • No tilt-screen, Poor battery life, Jittery autofocus
