The details
At a glance: 1.5x tele conversion lens that turns the GR IIIx's 40mm lens into a ~75mm equivalent; needs the GA-2 adapter.
About this accessory
The Ricoh GT-2 is a 1.5x tele conversion lens made for the Ricoh GR IIIx that extends its fixed 40mm-equivalent lens to roughly 75mm equivalent for a tighter field of view. It fits via the supplied Ricoh GA-2 lens adapter, which the camera detects automatically to optimise cropping and image stabilisation.

Works with
- Ricoh GR IIIx (40mm-equivalent model), used with the Ricoh GA-2 lens adapter
- Requires the GA-2 adapter to mount; the GT-2 cannot attach directly to the camera
- Not for the Ricoh GR III (28mm), which uses different wide/tele converters
Best for
This accessory is aimed at Ricoh GR IIIx owners who love the camera's compact 40mm-equivalent lens but occasionally want a longer reach for portraits, details and tighter compositions. Screwed on over the GA-2 lens adapter, the GT-2 multiplies the focal length by 1.5x to give roughly a 75mm equivalent, and the camera recognises it automatically to apply the correct crop and image-stabilisation settings. It is a GR IIIx-specific solution: the GA-2 adapter is required, and it is not intended for the wider 28mm GR III, which uses its own separate converter system.
Frequently asked questions
What focal length does the GT-2 give on the GR IIIx?
It multiplies the lens by 1.5x, taking the GR IIIx from a 40mm equivalent to approximately 75mm equivalent (in Crop mode); a secondary crop can reach about 107mm equivalent.
Does it need an adapter?
Yes. The GT-2 mounts via the Ricoh GA-2 lens adapter, which is used to attach it to the GR IIIx and lets the camera detect the converter automatically.
Will it fit the Ricoh GR III?
No. The GT-2 is designed specifically for the GR IIIx (40mm). The GR III (28mm) uses its own separate converter lenses.
Does the camera adjust automatically when it is fitted?
Yes. With the GA-2 adapter the GR IIIx detects the GT-2 and optimises the crop and image stabilisation for the longer focal length.
Why buy from Bass & Bligh
Bought from a real shop, not a warehouse.
Dispatched on the Monday… great service
Ordered a Panasonic four thirds lens dispatched on the Monday after purchase and delivered on the following Tuesday great service. Tried on the camera and initial thoughts are wow pin sharp and clear photos. Thank you
George P.Ordered a lens onlineA proper little treasure trove
3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
Philip B.Third visit to the shopBrilliant advice with awesome customer service
Sure you can buy online and possibly save a few pounds.. but if you require and appreciate knowledge and brilliant advice with awesome customer service then it's a no brainer...This is a real camera shop like it used to be back int day..
