Description
The Ricoh GR IV Monochrome compact camera is a dedicated black and white photography model based on the popular GR IV, but with a monochrome sensor. The camera is equipped with a fixed 28mm f/2.8 lens and a 25.7MP APS-C BSI CMOS sensor, and in addition to still images, it also shoots Full HD video.
What are the main advantages of the Ricoh GR IV Monochrome black and white camera?
Monochrome APS-C sensor for maximum detail
The Ricoh GR IV Monochrome features a 25.7-megapixel APS-C BSI CMOS monochrome sensor that is optimized to capture light and detail without the compromises typical of color sensors. The lack of a color Bayer filter allows for higher resolution, better micro-contrast and lower noise, especially when shooting in low light conditions.
The result is images with pronounced texture, smooth tonal transitions, and distinct shadows and highlights – key characteristics for street, documentary, and fine art photography.
Classic lens with precision optics
The camera is equipped with a fixed 28mm (35mm equivalent) f/2.8 lens, which is a trademark of the GR series. This focal length is extremely versatile and suitable for street photography, landscapes, architecture and everyday scenes.
The optics are optimized for the monochrome sensor, providing high sharpness from the center to the edges of the frame and minimal optical distortion. The f/2.8 aperture allows comfortable shooting in low light and better control over depth of field.
Stabilization and speed
The Ricoh GR IV Monochrome features 5-axis in-body image stabilization (IBIS), which compensates for hand shake and allows for longer exposures without the need for a tripod. This is particularly useful for street photography and working in fast-paced environments.
The camera features extremely fast start-up and minimal response time, making it a reliable tool for spontaneous moments. The Snap Focus function allows you to pre-set the focus distance and shoot instantly without delay - a valued advantage among street photographers.
Compact body and reliable control
One of the main advantages of the Ricoh GR IV Monochrome is its compact and discreet design. The camera fits easily into a pocket or small bag without attracting unnecessary attention, making it ideal for documentary and reportage work.
The controls are intuitive, with programmable buttons and quick access to key settings. The menus allow for detailed customization, including different monochrome profiles, control over contrast and tonality, as well as RAW shooting for maximum processing flexibility.
Connectivity and video capabilities
The Ricoh GR IV Monochrome supports Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, making it easy to transfer images to mobile devices and control the camera remotely. There is also the option of Full HD video, which, while not the main focus of the model, is a useful addition for creative projects.
