Ricoh GR III HDF comes with a new filter feature that enhances personal storytelling. With a single action, users can seamlessly switch to the newly integrated HDF (Highlight Diffusion Filter). The new filter enhances highlights and delivers mellow, softened images. This special-effect filter diffuses highlights and creates a gentle blur along the edges, evoking a nostalgic feel akin to film photography or cinematic visuals. The HDF's instant toggle feature enables effortless transitions between two distinct visual styles: the crisp, focused imagery characteristic of the RICOH GR series, and the softened, dreamy effects achieved with the HDF.
The shutter button has been changed to gray-silver to symbolize the simple change in visual expression. The default setting of the Fn (Function) button has also been changed to turning on/off the HDF. The user can also select another function as the default setting of the Fn button.
