What it is
{"overview":"The Ricoh GR-21 is a 35mm compact film camera fitted with an ultra-wide 21mm fixed lens, extending the GR series into the super-wide-angle category. On that limited evidence, the GR-21 today is worth substantially more than a standard GR1, reflecting its scarcity, but a single data point means the price a given example sells for can vary widely with condition and completeness.","buying_guide":"As with other GR-series compacts, inspect the LCD for bleed or missing segments, check the shutter and aperture blades for oil, and confirm the lens is free of fungus and haze given the complex wide-angle optics.

Questions
Why is the GR-21 more expensive than other GR film compacts?
The GR-21 was produced in much smaller numbers than the 28mm GR1 series and is the only GR film body with a 21mm lens, so its scarcity supports a higher price than standard GR1 variants.
