In the market there is a wide variety of photographic camera – soap dish on each day, more serious compact cameras, SLR cameras, mirrorless Photography with matrices of large sizes. All this equipment can be enough to classify the type and size photomatrix. However, there are models that can be put into a blind alley when trying to classify them. One of them – Ricoh GXR, on her today and will be discussed.
The developers of Ricoh digital camera created a modular camera Ricoh GXR. The basic module is a camera body with a magnesium alloy with three-inch LCD display, built-in flash, shoe for connecting an external flash or viewfinder. Additional modules represent a kind of cartridge containing a bundle of matrix lens. Here lies the trick – for testing with the basic module was proposed two cartridges – zoom lens 24-72 mm (equiv.) / F2.5-4.4 1 / 1, 7 “(Module S10) with a 12 megapixel matrix and 50-mm (equiv.) / f2.5 lens with a 10 megapixel APS-C-sensor (module A12), ie uniquely identify Ricoh GXR as fotokompakt or SLR camera can not.

And the system modules from Ricoh has one big advantage over the mirror and mirrorless cameras with interchangeable lens – replacing the lens the chances of a dust particle or some hair on the matrix is almost zero.
However, Ricoh GRX has its drawbacks. The first, not the most significant, it is very small at the moment the number of interchangeable modules. Of the four announced models of modules or one can buy in Russia away from the camera module, ie If you purchased a kit, such as the lens S10, is unlikely you will be able to purchase an additional module A12.
The second, more significant drawback is the price set Ricoh GXR.Na time of writing, according to Yandex.Market Ricoh GXR + RICOH LENS S10 24-72mm F2.5-4.4 VC
worth 67,850 rubles, which puts this model into a number of techniques, which acquire only the true fans of brands or people willing to pay money for a thing that others do not.
