Ricoh G700SE vs Ricoh GR Digital IV

Here is a extended review of the Ricoh G700SE versus Ricoh GR Digital IV, former being a Waterproof while the other is a Small Sensor Compact and both of them are produced by Ricoh. The image resolution of the G700SE (12MP) and the GR Digital IV (10MP) is very well matched but the G700SE (1/2.3") and GR Digital IV (1/1.7") offer totally different sensor sizing.

The G700SE was introduced 11 months earlier than the GR Digital IV which means that they are both of a similar age. The two cameras feature the same body design (Compact).

Before going straight to a comprehensive comparison, here is a short summary of how the G700SE scores against the GR Digital IV for portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

The following is a sample of the gallery pics for Ricoh G700SE & Ricoh GR Digital IV. The whole galleries are provided at Ricoh G700SE Gallery & Ricoh GR Digital IV Gallery.

In case you're looking to carry your camera, you will have to factor its weight and volume.

Often, it can be difficult to see the gap between sensor sizing only by looking at specifications. The photograph underneath may provide you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the G700SE and GR Digital IV.

Plainly, each of the cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The G700SE using its tinier sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field more challenging and the Ricoh G700SE will give extra detail using its extra 2MP. Greater resolution can also help you crop images way more aggressively. The older G700SE is going to be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
