The Ricoh GR IV might be the most anticipated camera release of 2025. Building on the cult status of the Ricoh GR III and GR IIIx, the first official glimpse of the GR IV has just taken place at GR Space in Tokyo – Ricoh’s newly renovated showroom where visitors can explore GR models, browse photobooks and exhibitions, and unwind over coffee.
On display is an exterior prototype of the compact camera, accompanied by a plaque confirming a planned release for fall 2025. Ricoh notes that the model is still under development and that features may change before launch, but there’s plenty to unpack already.
