Ricoh has officially doubled down on black-and-white photography with the official launch of the Ricoh GR IV Monochrome, a camera that feels less like a niche offshoot and more like a philosophical statement, which is now available to preorder for $2,196.95 at Adorama or at Wex: £1,599 or Ted's Cameras AU$2,999.95 ahead of it arriving in stores in February.
Previously revealed in a developmet announcement last year, the GR IV Monochrome builds on the GR series’ reputation for exceptional image quality, lightning-fast response, and true pocketable portability. This new model strips away color entirely, replacing it with a monochrome-dedicated sensor designed to extract every ounce of performance from the GR’s renowned lens.
