Happy New Year!
As you begin 2026, how are you all spending your New Year’s?
This year is the Year of the Horse in the Chinese zodiac. Furthermore, it's the year of “Bingwu” (丙午), which occurs only once every 60 years. Bingwu is said to encourage starting new things, taking on challenges, and moving toward your goals. It seems like it’s going to be a powerful year.
This year, GR celebrates the 30th anniversary of the release of the GR1.
We are planning enjoyable events to thank everyone who has supported GR over the years. Please look forward to them!
As “GR meet” events, we will be visiting Nagoya this month, Fukuoka in February, and Osaka in March. We hope to let you try the GR IV Monochrome soon, too.
This year, we will continue to offer you events where you can enjoy photography and the GR, so stay tuned!
May this year be filled with joy and wonderful moments for each and every one of you.
The GR official team would like to send you New Year’s greetings and photographs in gratitude for being able to welcome the new year!
