Ricoh gr iii vs ricoh gr iiix?

The GR III is the wider of the two. Its 18mm lens frames like 27mm on full frame, a classic street view. The GR IIIx uses a 26mm lens, equal to 39mm on full frame, so it's tighter and more standard. Both have the same 24.2-megapixel APS-C sensor, the same f/2.8 lens and the same stabilisation, so the choice really comes down to field of view.

For street and close-up work, I'd take the Ricoh GR III. If you want a little more reach for general walking-around or portraits, the Ricoh GR IIIx is the better fit. If you often shoot in harsh light, the Ricoh GR III HDF and Ricoh GR IIIx HDF replace the ND filter with a switchable highlight diffusion filter.
