After using the Ricoh GR III for two years, and hundreds of hours of enjoyment and excellent street photos, I've had some issues with the camera. While it's expected that a frequently used camera will pop up with mechanical issues from time to time, the problems with the GR III aren't exclusive to my use, and without question a known issue the the manufacturer refuses to fix.
I call out Ricoh and it's shoddy production in this video of viewer comments and questions. What are the exact issues I'm experiencing? Well, you'll have to watch the video to find out of course, but again, the issues are not exclusive to me as many have expressed anger and concern over the same issues on social media.
The complaints wouldn't necessarily keep me from purchasing the camera, as I've had a great experience with it, and plan to continue to use it in the future. My biggest gripe is the throngs of users who excuse the issues, giving the manufacturer no reason to make the necessary modifications. Being such a unique camera, the demand factor outways the need for the manufacturer to make the camera more appealing by fixing my complaints.
Let me know if you agree or disagree in the comment section below. And as always, should you wish to purchase the camera, you can use the purchase links in the section below.
Enjoy!
