DPReview said that over the Ricoh GR, the GR II is "a fairly minor update ... the camera isn't a dramatic update ... the core of the camera remains the same".[1]

New features over the GR

  • 802.11/Wi-Fi – to remotely control the camera as well as providing the option to transfer images from the camera to a mobile device or computer[1]
  • NFC[1]
  • Maximum shutter speed when shooting at f/2.8 increased by 1/3 EV to 1/2500 s[1]
  • Can shoot 10 raw frames at its maximum shooting rate of 4 fps (up from 4 raw frames)[1]
  • Can save either individual Raw files or a composite raw file when shot in interval mode[1]
  • Autofocus during movie shooting[1]
  • Option to trigger movie shooting across Wi-Fi, using the browser-based GR Remote app[1]
  • Seven additional effect modes for JPEGs[1]
  • An extra 'Color Temperature Extension' white balance mode[1]
  • The internal flash can be used to remotely operate Pentax AF360 and AF540 flashguns as slaves[1]
