Ricoh Unveils The GXR Module with 16MP APS-C Sensor

For all those Ricoh camera fans, there’s a newly released 24-85mm equival ent F3.5-5.5 zoom module with a 16MP APS-C sensor for its GXR system. This Ricoh camera has a flexible focal lenfth and has a wider zoom that is part of the kit offered. In spite the extra feature, the Ricoh is still compact in size.

“

Announced back in November, it is the first zoom module for the system to offer APS-C image quality. If our suspicions are correct and it uses the excellent Sony 16MP sensor, this promises a lot both in terms of image quality and focus speed (the faster readout of the sensor helps contrast-detection systems to more quickly ascertain correct focus).
