Review Summary

I regularly shoot a Canon R5. But, as I travel more, I decided I need a travel alternative. The GR IV does the trick. Definitely "good enough" for experiences likely to be shared with others electronically. As you probably know, the autofocus is not in the same league as my Canon. But the 2.8 is good enough for the occasional portrait like photo. Most travel photos are at F8 where focus is not as important. Though the snap focus is definitely a thing for most people, I usually tap the screen if it doesn't hit focus immediately.

The good parts about it are really good! It's easy to take everywhere, takes great images when it's in focus, and for the most part it makes me very happy. But it has all these little software nits -- like randomly changing my aperture and shutter speed in P-Mode with auto-ISO, or changing focus at close-but not-macro distances in back-button focus mode. And the AF is still not great. So good and to me worth having, but far from the great it could be.

Designed to faithfully evolve the core values of the GR-series—high image quality, quick responsiveness, and portability— the RICOH GR IV is equipped with newly developed key components, including lens, image sensor, imaging engine and enhanced image stabilization. It delivers high-quality, high-resolution images with intuitive, responsive snapshot operation, making it an excellent choice for snapshot photography.
The slim magnesium alloy- wrapped body, redesigned controls, and improved thumb grip give you both comfort and control.
At just 262g, the GR IV stays pocketable and portable.

The back-illuminated APS-C CMOS sensor works with the GR ENGINE 7 to capture stunning detail. With 25.74 effective megapixels and an accelerator unit, the GR IV reduces noise and reaches ISO 204800.
Attach the GA-3 Lens Adapter to add 49mm filters or the GW-4 Wide Conversion Lens.

The GR IV uses a five-axis Shake Reduction system to compensate for pitch, yaw, roll, and shift shake.
The GR IV powers on in just 0.6 seconds, the fastest in GR history. Its redesigned lens barrel and start-up sequence let you react instantly.

Switch easily between Program AE, Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority, and Manual Exposure. The new Snap Distance-Priority AE mode adds depth-of-field control based on subject distance, making street photography even more intuitive.
The GR IV introduces Cinema mode with yellow and green tones. Adjust grain, contrast, and toning to create a nostalgic film effect. With 12 Image Control modes, you shape the mood of every shot.

The 3.0-inch LCD monitor (1.03M dots) uses air-gapless construction to cut glare and reflection.
The Outdoor Monitor setting automatically adjusts brightness, giving you clear visibility in sunlight or low light.

The GR IV connects to smartphones and tablets via Bluetooth® and Wi-Fi.
Use the GR WORLD app to transfer images, trigger the shutter remotely, or sync GPS data.

The GF-2 External Flash is compact, lightweight, and pocket-friendly. When mounted, it adjusts automatically in ISO Auto Flash mode.
The DB-120 rechargeable lithium-ion battery powers more shots per charge. Pair it with the BJ-12 dual charger to keep your camera ready at all times.
