LCD and Viewfinder
Ricoh GR has a Fixed Type 3" LCD screen with a resolution of 1,230k dots. Both the screen size and the screen resolution is up to the standards of this class.
GR doesn't have a built-in viewfinder but an optional external viewfinder is available. Lack of a viewfinder can be problematic especially under strong light where visibility of LCD screens goes down dramatically. If you need a Large Sensor Compact camera with a built-in viewfinder in a similar price range, consider Canon PowerShot G1 X Mark III (Compare) or Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS100 (Lumix DMC-TZ100) (Compare).
