Use Every Ray of Light Exactly the Way You Want

Better color reproduction and full-featured image control.
Capture images exactly the way you picture them.

Depict an Even More Vivid World.
Image Control

Capture scenes that catch your eye as images. The GR IV is equipped with two new “Image Control” options for a total of 14 image finishes. These new options are based on the idea of a certain cinematic “look.” [Cinema (Yellow)] gives images a dignified impression, and [Cinema (Green)] lends a cool finish to images. We have also tuned the conventional “Image Control” options. The grain effects that were previously only available in monochrome options can now be set with two “Cinema” options and two “Film” options. Furthermore, it is now possible to set the size of the grain.

The size of the grain can be adjusted in monochrome options, “Film” options, and “Cinema” options.

Record Your Impressions of Light.
New Auto White Balance

“Warmth Priority” and “White Priority” have been added to “Auto White Balance.” You can configure settings to your liking and make photos your very own—choose whether to show a warm atmosphere or faithfully reproduce colors when shooting under tungsten lighting, allowing you to enjoy impressive photographic expressions even with “Auto White Balance.”

Make Use of the Angle of View of Three Lenses.
Crop Mode

You can switch the angle of view to match the subject. 35mm is great for capturing background information in a relaxed way, and the 50mm is close to what the human eye sees. Together with 28mm, this one model offers imaging expressions usually only possible with three different lenses. These options are also perfect for shooting styles that capture a sense of tension. Simply press the shutter release button to instantly capture your favorite composition without the need to trim the image later.

  • The focal length is equivalent in 35mm format.
  • The [Crop] setting limits [JPEG Recorded Pixels].

Capture Unreal Impressions in Images.
Multi-exposure

When shooting, images can be composited without any limit on the number of shots. You can also display the compositing process to check the composition while overlapping images. Photos can also be retaken after shooting, so you can easily overlap images exactly the way you imagine them. You can choose from three types of exposure control when overlapping images and leave difficult exposure adjustments up to the camera. Enjoy impressive multi-exposure shots easily with nothing more than the camera.

Enjoy Greater Freedom over Exposure Settings.
Built-in ND Filter

The GR IV features a built-in ND filter with two steps of exposure. It offers greater freedom over exposure settings, so you can open up the aperture to blur the background even in bright outdoor conditions, or use a slow shutter speed to blur moving subjects.

Supporting Highlight-weighted Metering.
AE Metering

You can choose from the following four diverse metering methods: [Multi-segment], [Center-weighted], [Spot], and [Highlight-weighted]. [Highlight-weighted] is good for suppressing highlight blowouts and obtaining an even exposure when shooting subjects illuminated by spotlights or those that have significant differences in contrast.

Add the Perfect Finishing Touches without a Computer.
In-camera RAW Development

RAW format data can be developed on the camera and saved as a JPEG image. This RAW development function is compatible with features such as the new “Image Control” and “White Balance” options, delivering advanced imaging options with nothing more than the camera. In addition, the save destination for developed images can be set to either the internal memory or a memory card. You can manage finished images in a batch for greater post-shooting enjoyment.

Bend Light to Your Will.
Dedicated Flash GF-2

The newly developed GF-2 is a compact, slim flash designed specifically for the GR IV. Even when mounted on the camera, the compact design allows it to be slipped into a pocket. When the GR IV is set at ISO AUTO, camera's automatic exposure control adjusts the guide number and ISO sensitivity according to the distance from the subject. When the GR IV is set at fixed ISO, the guide number is adjusted according to the distance from the subject. This is effective not only in dark scenes but also in backlit situations, expanding the range of expressions possible.

PENTAX flash P-TTL auto discharge is not supported.

Simply Attach It for Ultra Wide-angle Shooting.
Conversion Lens

The Wide Conversion Lens GW-4 (optional) was developed based on the same design concepts as GR lenses. Attaching this lens to the GR IV widens the angle to an equivalent focal length of 21mm. This enables shots with dynamic expressions that make full use of the enhanced perspective and wide angle of view.

  • The focal length is equivalent in 35mm format.
  • The Lens Adapter GA-3 (optional) is required to attach the Wide Conversion Lens GW-4 to the camera. The Lens Adapter GA-1 cannot be used with the GR IV.
