Ricoh GR III vs Sigma DP1x

Let's look a bit more closely at the Ricoh GR III versus Sigma DP1x, both Large Sensor Compact digital cameras by rivals Ricoh and Sigma. There exists a crucial gap between the sensor resolutions of the GR III (24MP) and DP1x (5MP) but they possess the same exact sensor sizes (APS-C).

The GR III was unveiled 8 years later than the DP1x and that is quite a serious gap as far as technology is concerned. Both cameras offer the identical body type (Large Sensor Compact).

Before delving in to a in depth comparison, below is a brief overview of how the GR III scores vs the DP1x in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Ricoh GR III and Sigma DP1x. The full galleries are viewable at Ricoh GR III Gallery and Sigma DP1x Gallery.

When you are intending to lug around your camera, you are going to need to factor in its weight and proportions. The Ricoh GR III offers exterior dimensions of 109mm x 62mm x 33mm (4.3" x 2.4" x 1.3") having a weight of 257 grams (0.57 lbs) whilst the Sigma DP1x has measurements of 113mm x 60mm x 50mm (4.4" x 2.4" x 2.0") along with a weight of 250 grams (0.55 lbs).

Remember that, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ depending on the lens you have attached at that time. The following is the front view over all size comparison of the GR III compared to the DP1x.

Looking at dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the GR III and DP1x is 90 and 88 respectively.

Typically, it's tough to envision the gap between sensor measurements purely by reviewing specifications. The visual here will help offer you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the GR III and DP1x.

Plainly, each of these cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same megapixels. You should count on the Ricoh GR III to deliver more detail having an extra 19 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop pictures a little more aggressively. The younger GR III will have a benefit in sensor innovation.
