RICOH GR IIIx - A True Companion
Рет қаралды 149,023
2 жыл бұрынThe brand new Ricoh GR IIIx has a fixed 40mm lens (FF equiv.). This was always my second favourite focal length after 28mm and in this video I show you what makes it so special.

Even though the GR III does not WR I can tell you it can take some hits due to recent experience. I slipped and fell waist deep into a glacier lake recently in Norway, my GR in my hand having the strap not attached to my wrist. So my GR was floating in the lake for a few seconds in ice cold water. After the accident I took out the battery and cleaned of the water a bit. But then also continued shooting a bit. (I know you shouldn't do that..) The photos had a little foggy look to them. Then I turned the camera on and took the battery out while it was on, so the lens would stay open and extended. I put it on a desk for a night with the battery door open as well. Since then, the fog disappeared and it works as before, pictures look like before. Long story short, the GR definitely can take a little rain etc. as it works perfectly now after having been covered in ice cold water for a short amount of time.

Hi, Q2/GRiii owner, here! Love both cameras. Often, I carry both with me. For street photography/travel, you can’t beat the GR’s compact size - (the Q2 is bulky in comparison, wearing mine around my neck.) There are many pluses to owning the GRiii or GRiiix over the Leica Q2. Firstly, the sensor. Compared to the digital cameras I own, the GR produces the best colour and black and white files, period. The RAW files, are also incredible, as they are DNG’s. Secondly, USB-C charging. Yes, the GRiii’s battery is limited, compared to the Q2. But the in-body charging makes all the difference. I love that. Wish I could plug in my Q2 to USB-C (like the SL2) but that’s down to waterproofing. My biggest dislike is the charging times for the Q2 battery. You’re out of the game until then. The Ricoh GRiii can do everything, more or less, that the Q2 can do. With advantages as mentioned above. Excited to try the GRiiix - if Ricoh did a full body SL2 style camera, I wouldn’t look back. I trust them. Ricoh is the future of digital photography.

@@courtneysmith731 I also own the GR III as well as the Q2. Love them both. definitely prefer the Q2 but the GR III ends up coming with me more often because of it’s tiny size (and incredible quality images). I will definitely be adding GR IIIx to my bag as soon as it is available :)

@samuel thankful to see you've kept your connection with Ricoh, I hope they recognize how much you help them. I cant think of anyone better to ask them directly about having an LCD ON AF/half-press firmware setting that turns off immediately after preview. this way the LCD is only on during the actual act of shooting/review, keeping stealthy but more crucially saving battery (our darling camera's achilles heel). or at least adding more options to the Auto Sleep Mode (10, 15, 30 sec) would also serve our poor batteries greatly. thank you and please continue this great thing going 🙏🏼

@kostyafedot551 2 жыл бұрын
Might be the best GR IIIx review not just for now, but of all times. Because time was spent not only to take good example photos, but due to the effort to explain about 40mm FOV. From my not common FOV, 40mm POV it is just too narrow. I like GRD cameras I have, but I constantly reach for 21mm. Layers and framing is still achievable with 21, but you have to like to be close. Which is not always good during COVID.

I only get to shoot in that focal length on my Minola CLE and whenever I view the negatives the feeling I get from that depth of field is different/better than any other. In my opinion. The 28mm field of view has a similar magic if you compose correctly.

Hey.. im looking again at a digital (had so many lol) ... my first love is film... in camera editing now has come on, and im interested in this gr3x.... BUT... to get a film look you need to manage certain qualities in order to get the look. Ive read there are certain functions backed into the raw files of this camera... so its imperative you get the shot right as you shoot it. With the fuji's you have Highlight and Shadow Tone Controls.... which are key controls in getting a film look. Are these available on the Richos? Ideally i dont want to go back to using lightroom and all the faff anymore... i dont really print large format prints anymore... so i dont see a need... unless I want to go the route of getting plugins for lightroom to get a look if i cant get it done in camera shooting jpgs.

And the app was available to download 1year after I got the camera. Even then it was full of bugs and not as good as a third party app written by a Korean hobbyist. Please Ricoh announce a new 30-40% larger capacity battery in the same shape and form, just like Canon Nikon Fuji did.

Hey Samuel. Was looking forward to hearing your view on this one. You used to use the GRiii in 35mn crop mode, right? How does that compare with the GRiiiX 40mm shots? Dramatically different?
@SamuelStreetlife 2 жыл бұрын
The field of view is only slightly wider with the 35mm crop but the compression and depth of field is exactly like a 28mm lens (or 18mm to be precise) so having a real 40mm (26mm) lens makes a big difference even compared to the 35mm crop mode (in my opinion). On my instagram page I saved a highlight where you can see the differences between both lenses and crop modes.

@SamuelStreetlife 2 жыл бұрын
Hi Elias, sorry for the late reply! I prefer TV with the GR because the depth of field is much broader than full frame and I can get a lot more in focus (even with 2.8) than with a full frame camera. And in Av mode you give up control over speed which is very important for street photography. I compensate aperture by manually setting a higher ISO value to raise the aperture value.
