I recently purchased a GRiii and this video really helped thank you 🙏🏻 your videos have helped me get inspired to go shoot again

@kryleespela27 Год назад

Just recently bought ricoh gr iii x. And thanks to your video Faizal. Helps a lot especially for a beginner like me.

Great video! Mine is coming in a couple of days and can't wait to play around with it. Thank you for your unique delivery and beautiful style while making videos

@Holl.Mvrk. 2 года назад

I need the cap and thumbs up 🙏🏼 I am loving the X, coming from the 28mm to the 40mm is exactly what I wanted and needed. Fits my everyday shooting style way more. Still love the GRii/iii. Maybe I’ll have to add one of them to the bag down the road again. Lol

@Dan-jg7zl Год назад

A huge bag for such a small camera. I bought a Barbour cross shoulder bag for the GRii. I can fit in an external flash, batteries and busines cards and still look stylish.

@dammitjim9131 Год назад

Awesome video. Haven't bought the GR IIIx yet. My only worry is dust. But the tips on the lens cap, case, thumb grip etc are great.

@owensoft 2 года назад

My gr protips; 1. connect the lanyard to the bottom right of the camera. Not the top. At the top it gets in the way. 2. I rarely charge the battery in camera because the little cover might eventually break off. 3. I glue a piece of glass over the front of the camera to help with the dust

@leunga 2 года назад

Could not agree more with your first point. Such a small adjustment has improve my shooting exp with my GR III.

@jezzylawson936 Год назад

Even after one hour with my GR I put the lanyard on the bottom....it just makes sense lol

Thanks for the vid. It was very helpful as a new GRIIIX owner interested in street. Is there a practical reason you choose not to use Snap focus, and assign related info to the function buttons? Thx.

@J_IanCastle Год назад

Completely agree with your technique to map AEL to Fn and keep shutter button for autofocus. Idk why everyone maps AF to Fn.

@stewartlogie Год назад

Depends on the photography style. If the scene is static and you are waiting for a subject to enter, then locking the focus beforehand would make sense to remove any delay or confusion on the focus point. If you are following a moving subject then you may want to have focus on the shutter button.

@ebreevephoto 7 месяцев назад

@elmoro160 2 года назад

@LimitedWard Год назад

Is there a specific photometry mode you tend to lean towards? I know highlight-weighted metering is one feature specifically called out in many reviews of the GR III/IIIx.

@thibaultloosveldt 2 года назад

Hi! Thanks for this video! Quick question, what color profile are you using? Thanks :)

@blueanthias Год назад

@analogFEEL 2 года назад

Hi Faizal, I've been using my Leica Q for almost 6 years, since I mainly shoot street photos so it works fine for me. The thing is the 28mm lens on the Q is just too wide sometimes, ergo I use the in-camera crop a lot, turning the 28mm into 35mm or 50mm. Coz the Q is only a 24Mpix camera, so I often end up with a 7 or 8M crop photo, it's even too small for websites. For my case do you recommend the GR IIIx, 40mm seems more handy for me. Thanks in advance!

@karinjohnstone6690 11 месяцев назад

I have got the Leica Q. I did have the GR111 but now I have the GR111x. I connect to the focal range much more. I would recommend that you get the GR111x. It will be a nice balance with your Q and much more portable.

@nicolasrighi4922 Год назад

Hello, Thanks for those videos that gave me some information. Are you using Jpeg setting or are shooting RAW on this camera for color & B&W photography ?

@ekjellgren Год назад

What's the use case for the GRIIIx when you carry a camera bag? Thinking I want something pocketable but like you I almost always have a bag with me anyway. Complement my XT4 with XE4 instead?

Is there a function to half press but obtain snap. I find the weight + the resistance from the shutter makes full presses very wiggly.

@leunga 2 года назад

Can you elaborate on why you are noy keen on the IIIx? I've got the III and was thinking of selling some old gear to fund for the IIIx for the 40mm equivalent in compact body.

@CineDailies 2 года назад

@@leunga I can't justify a 900 price tag for a point and shot with a non interchangeable lens ha.

@leunga 2 года назад

@@CineDailies yeh thats why I got the III second hand. Though if you compare it to other recent top line compact cameras it is not that expensive esp with the IBIS and snap focus function. However it does require a bit of getting used to the GR but I don't regret it, definitely not for everyone. The SOOC image quality is top notch though for a casual user like myself.

@leunga 2 года назад

@UnderBridge Rock fair enough. I agree the GR not for everyone. The latest firmware update has improve the focussing speed imo.
