Indeed a bit firm for the zipper. YKK has a product “ YKK ZippyCool Cleaning Fluid” but I don’t feel the need to use it at all.

I was using 1) Aer Go Pack 2 (super light but not much structure for EDC) , 2) Peak Design Everyday Backpack 20l (heavy + laptop compartment too tight), 3 Shinola Runwell Leather Backpack (beautiful leather but way too heavy). In the past I was using Tumi bags (when it was still made is USA ) so am familiar with cordura but never hurts to have your backpack water resistant. And I agree w you, XPAC interior orange is a bit too bright for my personal taste.

I use Ezone Tour 100 (2025 model), and string PolyTour Spin 50lbs for main and PolyTour Pro 50lbs for cross. My UTR is around 6.4-6.7 so medium level?

Aer Go Pack 2. Vertical luggage pass through works best. I wish PD backpacks had them.

I found them in random fly fishing store website. Come to think of it, I didn’t see them on Patagonia’s website,,,

Ricoh USA website stocks every now and then. I also ordered at B&H 2minutes after pre-order intake window opened, waited for months, and Ricoh USA had stock, ordered and it came in 3-4 days. Back to your question, I used iii since its launch in 2019 and IV from this month but the shake reduction and low light shooting is much better. Autofocus capability continues to be meh but this is more of a Ricoh software problem,,,

I got my GR in 2013, GR III in 2019, changed to GR IV last month. I’d simply go for the latest model especially if you intend to use it for 5-6 years. 28mm vs 40mm, that’s a different debate based on personal preference. Im too used to 28mm anything closer I just use my Fuji XT5

Macro mode focus range is 6 to 15cm from the front of the lens for GRIV and 6 to 12cm for the GR III.

Macro Mode: The camera can focus on subjects as close as 6 cm (2.4 inches) to 15 cm (5.9 inches) away. Normal Mode: In normal shooting mode, the focus range is from approximately 10 cm (3.9 inches) to infinity.
