Abstract: Bei der Ricoh GXR tauscht der Fotograf nicht nur das Objektiv, sondern ein Modul mit der Optik, dem Sensor und dem Bildprozessor. Zum Test standen die ersten beiden Aufnahmemodule in unserem Labor: Das GXR A12 mit 33 mm MakroFestbrennweite und APS-C-S...
Changeable units increase the number of shooting possibilities. Stunning image quality and macros with 50mm unit. Clickwheels make manual control simple
