GT-2 Tele Conversion Lens

Ricoh GT-2 Tele Conversion Lens — Expand the GR's Range for Professional Content Work

The gist: A purpose-built 1.5x converter that transforms the Ricoh GR IIIx into a 75mm portrait tool — adding a flattering working focal length for headshots, environmental portraits, and tighter interview compositions without switching cameras.

• 75mm equivalent reach on the GR IIIx: Converts the native 40mm to a 75mm portrait focal length (with in-camera crop) — a natural working distance for subject-focused content that the wide 40mm can't deliver without distortion.
• 5-element, 3-group optical design: A multi-element construction matched specifically to the GR lens system produces sharper results than digital zoom or generic adapters at the same focal length.
• Extends to ~107mm via secondary crop: The in-camera secondary crop mode provides additional compression for tighter isolations when the subject or environment calls for more reach.
• Pocketable with included carry pouch: Mounts to the GR body via the GA-2 Lens Adapter (sold separately) and stows in the included pouch; small enough to carry in a laptop bag alongside the camera.

DPReview's sample gallery for the GR IIIx + GT-2 documents real-world image quality at the 75mm equivalent, confirming that the GR's optical quality is well-preserved at the converted focal length for professional-grade results.

Best for: Freelance photographers and remote creators using the Ricoh GR IIIx for client portraits, headshots, or tighter compositional work who want a second focal length in the same compact form factor. Skip it if: You do not own the GA-2 Lens Adapter (required for mounting, sold separately) or if your shooting style is primarily wide-angle. Runs ~$270 — check the current price before buying.
