The GR II is a large sensor compact camera. It means that the GR II is smaller than DSLR cameras but nevertheless captures high quality pictures and has different kinds of shooting options.
The GR II can shoot images at 16 megapixels max resolution. But if you want to get better image quality the more important specification is a sensor size. This model has a APS-C (23.7 x 15.7 mm) sensor that will allow the photographer to take great images and still the camera stays rather small. But if you want to shoot images of the professional quality check Canon EOS-1D X Mark II.
The Ricoh GR II has max shutter speed of 1/4000 sec. It is an average shutter speed that is rather good for taking action images of a satisfactory quality. The Ricoh GR II records high quality videos in Full HD resolution.
The lens is fixed and you can't switch it. The lens has weak 1x optical zoom.
Also this camera has Wi-Fi which means that the GR II owner can back up images to a cloud service for example. The GR II battery life will be enough to shoot approximately 320 images.

- Ricoh GR Digital II review By Cliff Smith, 2017-02-01
The Ricoh GR Digital II is a unique and ambitious camera. Despite its lack of a zoom lens it offers a level of versatility higher than almost any other pocket-sized compact camera on the market. Handling, performance and build quality are all of a very high standard, and image quality is excellent at low ISO settings. More importantly it is a genuine pleasure to use and encourages creative photography. For enthusiast photographers looking for a compact camera it offers one of the few serious alternatives to the Canon G9.

The Ricoh GR Digital II is a specialised tool for use alongside your other camera(s). It doesn’t do much, but what it does, it does exceptionally well – architectural interiors and exteriors, landscapes and ‘street’ photography are where this camera shines

The Ricoh GR II is a modest update to the well-regarded Ricoh GR, as well an evolution of a beloved film camera, the Ricoh GR1. In this version, the high-quality formula remains: an 18.3mm (28mm equiv.) F2.8 lens in a compact body with a 16MP CMOS APS-C sensor inside. While the update doesn't bring any image quality changes, it does offer a chance to run the new camera through our studio test scene, as it will be an obvious competitor to the Fujifilm X70 when it arrives. Take a look at how it holds up against other 16MP compacts, and see how the street-friendly camera performs out-and-about.
