Looking for a bag that fits camera with the filter adapter on…
The one in the video fits it just fine. I've also heard that Wotancraft's Portable Camera Pouch is nice for that. Didn't try one, though. I think some waist packs, hip packs or dare I say fanny packs will do as well.
Hi! Does the godox flash work with TTL with the GR III?
Hi! If you buy the designated Godox flash - yes. For example, in Godox V1-P (P stands for Pentax) it will work in P-TTL just fine with GRIII. Because luckily starting from the GRIII they put the Pentax hot shoes on the GRs. Off-camera combined with the P-TTL Godox trigger you can even mix Godox speedlites made for other brands like I did: V1 made for Fuji but used in P-TTL with Ricoh, etc. Hope that helps!
Thank you for your video. I just bought Godox TT350P, perfect for my GR III HDF with P-TTL.
Solid choice! With leaf shutter, it's going to be plenty powerful. Thank you for watching!
Thanks for your review! I love my 20-35 GF lens. Very versatile indeed!
Thanks for watching! Appreciate you stopping by!
Hi! I like this green leather case for Ricoh! Where can I get it?
My man i can't appreciate this enough, thanks for all the series so far, i benefit a lot from the videos.
Glad to help! Thank you for watching!
Ok, now I just need to find GR iii 😅
Crazy times, right? And not so long ago it was 899, was everywhere and was considered expensive haha.
Awesome video! Do you think we can expect GR iv soon?
Thanks! 2025 is my really optimistic bet 🤞
Wow… I never thought there were so many accessories for GRiii🤯🤯🤯 top video , very useful
You did a really great job! 🎉🎉
Thank you so much!
Most complete accesories video for Ricoh GR. For sure.
Thank you! There is probably more to it, but I've gotta keep my GAS in check at this point.
dope video !!
Thanks a lot!
If you are interested in the accessories mentioned in the video, I've just posted a long 2-Part Video about everything I've tried throughout the years with my personal thoughts. Check it out! Part I: ua-cam.com/video/7QURtfxgxPk/v-deo.html
Thank you for making this video, very different from all the other reviews I've watched on this camera, actually seeing how you are using it on screen is really helpful, been trying to decide if I want the iii or the iiix love what they both produce. Hope you are ok and stay safe. ❤
Glad it was helpful! If I could, I would get both, haha. But in all seriousness, you can't go wrong with either of them. But if it's too hard to choose, and you have a way to try before buy, I would do that for sure. Thank you for the support!
Thank you for the info.. im considering buying that lens as well.. Hello from Jakarta.. new subsriber here.. 😊
Thank you! Glad it was useful!
I'm a big fan of instant film and printing at home. I tried 35mm film photography but waiting for them to be developed is not for me. I have the Link Wide and Canon CP1500 to print my photos.
I think there's somethign wrong with my Ricoh GR iiix. Maybe it is the dust IDK. It is taking terrible photos! Can someone please look at the sample photos in the short I posted. I need help!!! I spent so much money on this thing!
Nah, my guy, there is nothing wrong with you GRIIIx
@@Alex_SMK are you sure? I thought the photos looked pretty bad. Can barely see anything
The original X100 was my first and favorite Fujifilm camera and just loved it. Have since used the F & V, but still miss the X100... Now a Leica shooter, but would like to pickup another X100... Great video, thanks
Thanks for stopping by! Which Leica/s are you using now?
@@Alex_SMK M10 w/Voigtlander glass and a Q
@@mwales2112 Nice combo! Enjoy!
28mm or its equivalent are best..just need to become accustomed to its perspective
The GRIII is the third Ricoh I've owned, and hopefully won't be the last. I love the B&W jpegs.
Congrats! I hope so too! Yeah, B&W is great on GR! Thank you for watching!
I bought the GFX 100S today, and because of the spring sale, also placed an order for the 20-35mm. I was having second thoughts about it when I picked up the camera, as the salesman said "oooh that's going to be WIDE!". I didn't quite understand if he meant that as a positive or negative thing. Seeing your video have made me question this choice less. It's still an unsettling amount of money for "was it the right choice?". I have found a second hand 63mm for a very good price which I'll get within the end of next week, so at least I should have something to get started in this new dimension of medium format. The question remains though; what tele lens should I get... 110mm? 45-100mm? 100-200mm? I can only pick one, because the price vs range is crazy compared to what I'm used to with Olympus. :D
Firstly, congrats on the GFX! Yeah, 20-35 can be too wide sometimes, but it all depends on the application of course. At least you have some choices, unlike with 23mm or Laowas. As for the tele, I've only tried 110 and 45-100, so can't tell too much about the 100-200 except that you can find them pretty darn cheap as of late. 45-100 is a workhorse made for pretty much anything you throw at it, especially in the controlled lighting scenarios. No need to constantly change lenses and the IS is really neat since they work together with IBIS. And of course the LM is a treat to use. Buying a lens for work and shooting in different genres, this lens would be on the top of my list, probably. But boy oh boy, it's a chunky one, haha. 110 is a portrait machine. If your main thing is portraits and fixed 85mm is where you like to be, it's a no-brainer. I know F2 is tempting, but the depth of field on it is not always practical for the optimal portraits. But when you need it - it's simply put - wonderful, if not the best. No IS - not a big deal, but shutter speed has to be… you know the drill. And it's not light or small either. Just some info for you to consider. At the end of the day, I can't choose for you. But I hope it helps somehow. Oh, and thank you a lot for watching!
Wow man the photo at 12:38 is amazing I just bought the gfx 100s, what film simulation did you use for this photo? thank you, loved the vid.
Thank you! I believe that was the Nostalgic Neg (slightly tweaked in post). Congrats on your purchase, btw!
вау, не думав що наткнусь на відео українця! до речі, щодо дешевості камер - згоден, але в америці там навіть поломану модель можуть продати за багато долларів (не розумію нашо). я ж свій шлях фотографа розпочав з nikon coolpix l26 за 250 гривень. в цілому, чудовий фотік, але хотілось чогось більшого. через 5 місяців у мене з'явився fujifilm s2980, це просто рай. тож друзі, рекомендую вам спробувати старі мильнички, вони дійсно варті свого життя. навіть старенький кенон на 3 мегапікселі може фотографувати краще ніж смартфон! головне навчитись користуватись і звикнути, ну і полюбити мильничку :)
Дякую за чудовий коментар і перегляд! :)
Is there any rumors on a gr iv soon? Gr 3 is like 5 years old now ? Very good comparision btw , i so want to like the GR but u wish it had atleast a evf you could put on the hot shoe and the Fiji is alot newer and nicer design . Last thing should mather but i shoot with ugly ff dsrls so it would be nice to have a better looking camera as a Carry on camera
Thank you. I, personally, think GR4 or whatever it's gonna be called won't come till 2025, now that Ricoh announced the HDF models. Which, yeah, is kind of old-ish by our conditioned beliefs that the new model should come every year or two. Of course, fingers crossed for the new one to arrive earlier, but hey, let them cook it right, you know, I'm in no rush. Seems like the Fuji - is a safer bet for you now. At least you don't have to worry that the new model is going to be released soon, and they are in high demand. Of course, if you can get one for a reasonable price.
I really enjoyed your video. I have collected many older digi-cams like: Nikon, Canon, Kodak, Olympus, Samsung, Casio. I think you offered wise advice on trying to find old digi-cams from family, garage sales, thrift stores, etc because that is where it appears a person will find the best value. A person may find a particular model on E-Bay but what I have found is every time there's a UA-cam video about an old camera the prices on E-Bay goes up and a lot of times the camera is over priced. Best of luck in your photography journey. Best Duane
Thank you so much for watching and taking your time to write this! I appreciate it a lot!
Дякую за відео ❤
Будь ласка! Дякую за перегляд!
8mm circle stickers? I'm using Cricut paper and a hole punch, I might get a 6mm hole punch for $2 and see how the smaller circles look.
I think 6mm hole punch will probably work too, I didn't measure the one I used tbh. If you feel cute, you can even buy them star or heart shaped or else as well, haha! Thanks for stopping by!
You're right. These old(er) digicams are a really neat way to practise your composition skills, without thinking too much about the 'quality' of the end result. Every now and then they produce a really good image, but they always capture memories if you're with friends and family, so just have some fun.
Great video!!❤❤ Take care
Thank you! 🤗
How can you compare 2 cameras with totally different shots ?
What is your opinion on using raw photos on both cameras at high ISO? Do you see any type of advantage over either of the two?
I was many times in Ukraine and recognized some places on your photos. I even took a similar photo at the exact same spot in Comfort Town with my friend walking on those "zebras" 😊 Great video 👍 Слава Украине 🇺🇦
NICE
Thank you!
"While we are waiting for a complete weather sealed Ricoh GRIV..." Do you guys have some new info about the GRIV we don't know about or is this just some random comment ? I'm asking because I want to buy a Ricoh but I'm scared to have the GRIV being released just a few weeks after I buy a GRIII.
Great video! Please don’t talk in the dark like that anymore. It’s crazy confusing and icky. Otherwise great shots and info!
Noted! Thanks for watching and the feedback, appreciate it
It’s “Moody”
Great informative video. What are your views on the x70? Do you still use it? I have one on the way.
Thank you! I think it's still a great camera, highly underappreciated even by Fuji themselves. I had to sell mine to fund some other stuff at the time. But if they'd make a x80 (or whatever) I might even consider switching to it from the GR. Hope you'll enjoy it!
@@Alex_SMK cheers Alex. I ordered it when my GR1 suffered catastrophic failure 😞. That’s what puts me off getting another one. I do miss it though. An x80 would be awesome though. Keep up the good work brother 👍🏿
So, you sold your Fuji, does it mean you prefer the Ricoh GR ?
Yep, it worked out for me so far
@@Alex_SMK I just sold the X100V, too. In my case, that had more to do with it offering very little (for my particular style of photography!) over my X-T5 coupled with an xf 27 or XF 18. The Ricoh is kind of calling me, though. I just don't like the 1000€ price tag which kind of undermines the spirit of just throwing it into my pockets as an EDC.
Yeah, I can relate. As for the prices - true. They got crazier for these compacts over the past few years, that's for sure...
According to news x100vi will be useless and V is superior
👍🏻🫶🏻🎉
Great video! Definitely appreciate the in-depth comparisons with a nice even pace. Gave me enough time to look and evaluate without having to constantly pause the video. I’m thinking it’s about time I pick up a Ricoh and see how I get on with some street photography. Might be a bit self conscious and out of my comfort zone and the size would be perfect.
Could the difference in sharpness be due to the adapter on x100v?
I vote for Agfa, because - haven't you seen how cool she spins??
I had the x100v and had a hard time connecting with it. A decent camera but I need something smaller for street. Trying to decide on the iii or iiix. Have you experienced any issues with the back dpad wheel?
I feel that! The reasoning is pretty much the same for me. So far on my camera the dpad didn't develop any issues, but the one I've got for testing from the local Ricoh office some years ago was down bad. Didn't stop me from switching, though. As for III or IIIx, only you can decide of course, if you win a lottery by any chance just get both haha.
I’ve never stopped using my Nikon Coolpix digicam that was given to me as a gift in 2013 😃
Great production! Love these old CCD sensor cameras. I need to check out that Pentax. Hopefully you can turn off the date stamp ha
Thanks! Yeah, you definitely can turn that off. But don't get your expectations too high, the lens is pretty dark on this one, but the form factor is one of my favorites!
@@Alex_SMK just got one off eBay for $40. Thanks
When do you think the GR4 is gonna drop
Have my fingers crossed for this year, but don't take my word for it
I'll pick used nikon coolpix A Dx
Good for you! Whatever floats your boat, as long as it inspires you to shoot more and create. Appreciate you stopping by!
Extremely expensive n Extremely pathetic battery life
It is funny, you talk as if it is a new idea well, I have always used a digital camera. I use a Canon PowerPoint ELPH 190 IS. In my opinion my photos are superior then those taken with a smart phone.
