Its been two years so I thought it was time for an update: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aNqlqs1zrMizqWQ.html

I reach for my Ricoh more than any other camera I own. It’s so compact, can be operated with one hand, and takes amazing pictures. It’s a perfect camera, in my opinion.

Haaaaa the ending :D Great vid as always! Who else browses eBay after watching Mattias' videos?! :D

I've been studying which digital camera to buy for the last few months. As an engineer, I'm very meticulous about specs. This is the first review I've seen that moves away from specs and humanizes the camera to be more than just a tool for capturing light. It's completely changed my approach from the spread sheet I was building. Thank you!

If there was a comparison review of comparison reviews you'd win, comparatively speaking.

Haha. Results were shocking. Can't wait for the "What if I had to pick only one FILM camera" episode.

That Ricoh GR II opened my eyes to a lot once I owned that. They do need a GR III to catch up with more tech, but thats one of the greatest street cams of all time.

Loved the ending! But most of all i love how personal your videos really are. Thanks so much. Rob

you had me Rolling on the floor with that ending , fantastic video as always Mattias

you made me buy a Ricoh GR, you monster. i love it! thank you. :)

Time to buy the god damn Ricoh.

One of your best videos ever! :) Loved the ending.

I think the main lesson here is that it is difficult in 2017 to buy a BAD camera. There are just so many GOOD cameras that if you basically put their pictures up on a wall and through a dart while blindfolded you would end up with an excellent camera... or a broken window...

The Ricoh GR is the camera that dethroned my Canon 7d with 16-35mm L glass. It is by far the best camera because it's great and its always with you, and it also has a superior IQ to my 7d and the images are fantastic

You are a gem, of all the KZfaq camera reviewers you take the best pics by far.

Considering the age, the price, and the lack of popularity of that Sigma, I think it is actually the most impressive. I mean, its an old, cheap, compact Sigma! And yet look at how well it hangs with the more expensive, more popular, and newer cameras. I need to buy a Sigma at some point, just to try it out.

I have been shooting for some years but never had a good compact camera for everyday use. After watching this video and tried some cameras, I went to buy a Leica X-E. It have been a month and I am so amazed by its color and the quality of the lens, not to mention its sublime build quality and controls.

I love what you did in the end. Just choose the one most comfortable to use

Jjust watched this, 6 years later, and found the ending hilarious! I have had the GR-ii for a long time now and I am continually impressed by its performance.

Your rating system at the end is so hilarious! (but also on point, as it is a subjective test). You did make me consider the Ricoh, thanks!

I traded my Richo GRII with Fuji X70 because I got tired of the dust problem which plagued the previous generation of GR. I have to say, not a second go by that I don't miss the GRII. The image quality, the ease of use, the portability, the snap focus... all regrettably nullified by its archilles' heel.

My girldfirend was looking a replacement for a GR 2 that she love (the old one released in 2009).. so it will be the GR2 (the new one).

I watched your x70 and GR comparison video many times before deciding on the GR. It's probably my most used camera since, so small & light, easy to use one handed, great IQ. I thought I might find the 28mm focal length limiting, but I love it!! Glad to see you still hold the GR in high regard :)

I love my fujifilm x70, sure it might not have the mojo “acros” film simulation but it’s my everyday pocket camera and family camera too... also good in urban landscape. I giving it 150pt

Those final scores😂😂 Amazing!:)

Mattias that was one the most heart felt and humorous reviews I have seen. Many thanks for sharing, keep up the good work.

heyy thanks for posting this literally a day after i bought my ricoh

Olympus tg5 great all-round. It's cold here in winter in Canada and in my experience it's perfect.

I knew this was gonna be - If I could only pick one camera, it would be these four :)

i've just switched from a ricoh gr (1) to fuji x100f. i used the ricoh for 5 years and absolutely loved it. the only problem was reliability. the lens barrel has stuck on me three times so far, expensive repairs meant i have ended up paying for a whole other camera in the years i've used it. looking around the net i don't see too many complaints about this issue though, so maybe i got a dud piece. it's on intermittent freeze now, with the camera sticking on startup with the lens barrel out, and i've sometimes spent up to an hour removing the battery, simultaneously pressing the shutter on start up etc. unreliable. so it's fuji from here on. i went for the x100f over the x70 mainly for the sensor. here's hoping lumping out the extra cash is worth it. any tips on addressing the ricoh problem would be much appreciated, i still love that camera!

Damn, I've got an early start tomorrow. But I can't say no to this notification!

You have taken the lead for the best reviews i've seen in a long time. In an age of everyone wanting attention with snappier videos and quirks. What a lovely authentic way my man :) and thank you. Will be buying my first camera ever at 28 just to fulfil a hobby and my love for aesthetics. Fallen for the Ricoh, with having no idea of this brand 24 hours prior to this day. This day will be dedicated to RICOH GR II.

Love your reviews, always on point and always humorous and always refreshing! Thank you!

Freaking great ending hahaha. :P Thanks for the laughter!

RX1 for me. I'm so in love with mine... But I like the Ricoh as well. Especially the user interface is quite intuitive.

This video is 4 years old, and it’s a fantastic review.

I saw the troll at the end coming but I'm okay with it

Still my all time favourite KZfaq video ... Mattias you're the best when it comes to reviews on old or new cameras.

I will smile with that ending for the rest of the evening.

My Ricoh was stolen, and there has been a void in my heart ever since :(

Haha was expecting the twist at the end. Great video as always.

Love the ending! Thanks for putting the Ricoh GRII on my radar, I'm jumping ship from a Canon 1000D and checking out what else is out there.

After watching your channel, I sold my Mirrorless and forget the RX100 series. Now I am focusing on the APS-C point and shoot cameras. My next target is leica x1 or x2 since 28mm seems too wide for me.

definitely did not expect the ending

Mattias the camera troll, i imagined you would pick all of them, in the end each camera performs extremely good. Great video, i had a good laugh at the end, keep up the great work!!

I am addicted to camera reviews. This is the best one I have seen. And I have seen at least 5000.

Love the ending. The window reflection photo was a fabulous composition. 😍

YT fed me this video again. Love the ending.! Crack me up… again!

The ending had me in shambles! 😂

IMHO that's how all reviews should be. Cars and all!

I don't enjoy 28mm focal length that much... so I have to get a hoodie with bigger pockets :D Used to have the Ricoh GR II, sold it for a X100T that I love. Fun video.

Hahaha... excellent final results! They are all great cameras in fairness... I'd love to pick up an X70 as a 'bring everywhere in my pocket' camera.

You crack me up. I just loved the ending. Also looking forward to the film camera version.

Fantastic - wasn't expecting that finale:)

I am a pro (veteran) and the GR is the camera I use for personal work. Wins on all fronts (size, adaptability, features, build, output). Make it 36+mp please!! My work cameras are D850 & D4s

Hahahaahah ..... another 100 points for that lovely dog ..... thanks for the video.

I'm dying at the end🤣 Nice video and humor sir!

This video is a piece of art, I laughed a lot. Standing ovation for Matias. Anyway I want a Ricoh now.

2 seconds into this video and I had to press the thumbs up button. Finally a new video and such a good one.

That ending with a twist... Awesome!

That ending sums up what is wrong with modern camera reviews. Loved it! Keep up the good work Mattias :D

You got me on that ending .. very very nice video as always.

My pick would be the Leica X1. I bought this one based on your excellent video, and I have been incredibly happy with it. It is super pocketable, inexpensive, good looking and has great IQ.

Hahaha what a genuinely warm, funny, informative video. Top marks to you sir and that makes you the winnest !

Matthias, King of Photography Reviews, take a bow.

OMG, lolz! the ending! Fabulous. I was cheering for x70

Brilliantly done Matthias. Enjoyed this a great deal.

For me it’s the Sony rx100. Any version but probably the II because it has a hot shoe . I think I would love the Ricoh

I own an X70, pretty happy with it tho. Btw, very cool ending. We need such a sense of humor these days.

LOL, never expect that ending, I like it

I got tired of DSLR, so I changed it for x100 and then x70. Love the flip screen, but sometimes I miss the ND filter

Brilliant, brilliant conclusion!

Best final conclusion ever!

I loved the ending .... saw that coming a mile off. Great video as always.

Omg that was epic. Loved it all the way. Thanks for the awesome positivity 😀

The end had me laughing, well done! I love my GR, but I have to admit that Leica is a beautiful camera. [logs onto ebay]

Loved this comparison, loved the scoring punchlines at the end, happy subscriber

He's a Nutter! Great vid Mattias. Can't for the life of me see why anyone gave the thumbs down, there's no accounting for taste!

Amazing. Subbed. Also, really nice music switch at the beginning. Your editing is outstanding.

Great review. Can't believe the results! What are the odds!

I'm surprised you didn't talk about how the screens perform in bright conditions. The the lack of a viewfinder has always made me weary with these compact cameras.

Mattias, I really enjoy your reviews/analysis/comments but mostly your pictures. You are a hell of a photographer. Thanks

What a marvellous vid. 100 points for just being the best vid on KZfaq.

Hahaha I wasn't expecting that outcome. Great vid.

Very objectively compared and reviewed. Well done.

Dude! Awesome video! The ending was gold!

Hahahaha. The plotted twist is beyond JJ Abrams

Ok, now I'm more undecided than ever between x70 and Leica x1😆😆😆 Great review btw!

I like what you do and the way you do it. As i see it you are one of the best street photographers in here. Thanks for shering! You inspire people in a time where we thruly need it!

I love love love how you ended the comparison!👏👏👏

For me the answer is Sony a6000. Since I got that my D810 stays in its bag and the RX10 iii is only for the long zoom. With kit lens it has a reasonable range (24-75). It's compact and light. It's fast, and has wonderful tonality (that's what I like). People say the lens is not good but I get constantly good results. The negatives are some poor ergonomics but you adjust. Basically it's a fast (and fast to turn on - unlike the Rx10iii), fun and gives great results. I like it a lot more than the RX100 IV I had. The D810 comes out when absolute image quality and that fantastic detail is needed.

Thanks to Mattias I got a bmpcc a couple years back and a few months ago a GRii, now I don't have an interest in any of the new gear.

Awesome comparison Mattias...It is obvious that you were bought out by the four manufactures ;-) Really appreciate your take on equipment and the strengths/weakness every camera has.

2020: Leic X1 has the best point and shoot lens EVER.

This was fun. Thanks man, more ties please ! The process is on point to help me buy one of those

For me, there is only one Swiss Army Knife - the Canon EOS 6D Mark II .. I like the look of it. Such a huge, grippy body. It feels solid, reliable and familiar. It is such a joy for me to use. The menu and interface is so classy and still fresh. All buttons are perfectly arranged. It looks like Canon built this camera especially for me, hehe. The Mark II + Sigma 24-105 mm f/4 Art is my dream setup. It is so damn heavy, and I like this. It gives me a rmeaty grip. Man.. it is almost 11pm here in Switzerland, but I want to go out and shot - NOW! Thx for the inspiration that I feel after any of your videos.

That was a fun video. I loved my Ricoh GR a few years ago. I really wish they would come out with a new update. 24 megapixels, improves dynamic range and ISO, faster AF, faster controls, and maybe weather sealing. Keep the lens the same it’s just about perfect for a 28mm equivalent, but if they do improve it an f/2 would be great ;)

Ha ha the ending was awesome. Good comparison though it was very interesting. Thank you

I have only just found your channel,now i have all your videos playing in the background 😅
