Metal hot shoe cover (GK-1)

Ricoh's own metal cover for the III-era bodies - the genuine part, at a genuine-part price.

The official answer for the GR III and IIIx: a machined metal cover from Ricoh that replaces the plain plastic one and sits flush with the top plate. It does exactly one job, and you are paying for the name and the finish - generic covers cost a fraction. Like any shoe cover it comes off whenever a flash, finder or thumb grip goes on.
