Ricoh GR III Quick Tip 1: Is there a problem with dust on the Ricoh GR III sensor?

Ricoh GR III owners, along with most compact camera owners, have either had a battle with dust on the sensor, or have heard horror stories from those that have. This is not unique to the Ricoh GR III, but like most compact cameras, it is susceptible to it. Why? Because the lens is not removable, therefore, when dust attaches itself to the lens housing, then the lens is retracted back into the camera, it pulls the dust particles in with it, and they have to come to rest somewhere. And sometimes that's smack in the middle of your sensor.
This video explains how that happens, and a possible solution to prevent this from occurring. It includes the Ricoh GA-1 Adapter with a 49mm UV filter screwed in to help protect the lens from dust entering.
Keep in mind, having dust on the sensor, or any lens, is not the end of the world. Sometimes it's so small it might only show up with you are at the top end of your aperture (16 to 22), and even then, most photographers are used to dirty lenses at one point or another. I used Lightroom for everything, so if I had a dust issue I would just clone it out and move on. I've had many lenses with this issue, as I didn't feel like taking them apart and cleaning. So it's definitely not unique to this camera, or a deal killer by any means.
I will admit I don't even pay much attention to my Ricoh GR III photos regarding dust spots, as I'm using it for 'gritty' street scenes anyway, where i may be tempted to add artificial grain, and certainly not worrying about cloning out a small spec if I had to.

You can power up the camera without having the lens pop out - for image playback and menu changes but not shooting mode - by long pressing the play button. Won’t solve problem entirely but will reduce unnecessary lens extentions.

Thank´s Dozier for the video . I have purchased the stuff you just showed in the video and wonder if you have found a case that will fit to the GR 3 camera with the filter attached ? I have tried to find it but without sucess .

@DozierGraphic 3 года назад

Thanks Olle! I typically just wrap the Ricoh in a little bubble-wrap pouch I have (must have been from a lens purchase or something), then I put that in my regular camera bag, which goes with me when I shoot in case I want to move over the the Canon or one of my film cameras. So, I don't carry the Ricoh by itself. I'm sure there are options out there though. I assume you've tried Amazon, etc? Either way, I'd say keeping it wrapped/boxed/cased when not using is as important as trying to protect it from dust when you're using it. Good luck my friend!

@cameraman655 3 года назад

While a Fuji shooter myself, I found this very useful as I am looking at the X100V. Like the GRs, the X100 lineup is a fixed lens rig, and honestly sensor dust, well, I did not consider that possibility. I’ll have to investigate to see if this is an issue on the X100 before plopping down $1300. Keep these vids comin’...

@DozierGraphic 3 года назад

Thanks cameraman! I'll be honest, I should have pointed out in the video, I rarely check for dust spots in the first place. I only use it for street photography, and if it did get dust on the sensor I use lightroom anyway. I've had other DSLR lenses with dust that I used for long periods without cleaning, it was never a huge deal for me. But I know it's a heavy topic, thus the video.

@professionalpotato4764 2 года назад

The X100V is dust and weather resistant, almost completely. Just pop on a clear/UV filter and it'll seal the camera completely. I think the Ricoh is just more prone because the lens moves in and out. The X100 series just stays put.

@HogbergPhotography Год назад

In my knowledge, dust issues on the Fujifilm X100-line of cameras is non existent. I have been reckless with my X100F for about 4.5 years shooting in almost every environment possible, and still not a single speck of dust on any shots. You do not need to worry about dust on the X100V.

Thanks for the tip. Does the Adapter/Filter solution introduce more Vignetting into the images? If yes, can the Camera Software be setup to reduce the amount of Vignetting caused by this setup?

Do you leave the adapter and filter on all the time? I just got my Ricoh GR iii (used) and set it up like yours. Do you use a case or have one that you recommend? I got the exact adapter and filter that you recommended and also got a Peak Designs wrist strap and a tempered glass LCD screen protector. I bought a case off Amazon but the camera doesn’t fit in it with the adapter and filter in place. I don’t think it’ll be good to take the adapter and filter off and on a lot. Do you recommend a certain type of small case which will accommodate the adapter and 49 mm filter? I’m really looking forward to getting out and shooting some pictures in New Orleans next week. Great videos by the way! Thank you!

@DozierGraphic 8 месяцев назад

I kept my GRIII in a regular camera bag and never carried it in it's own bag. And with the III yes I left the adapter on all the time (again, in a compartment of my regular camera bag usually with other cameras in there as well). I assume by the time I'm answering this you've already shot New Orleans? Don't overthink it - just enjoy the shooting!

@ofthewayministries 2 года назад

This is a great addition to help protect the camera. Are you still using this adapter with the GRiii? I've noticed that near the bottom of the adapter, there are 2 tiny gaps/holes from the protrusion of the design. Have you seen this become a problem with allowing dust and other things to enter the space? Also, other reviews have mentioned that this adapter causes vignetting; have you experienced this issue with this adapter? Thanks for your help.

@DozierGraphic 2 года назад

It's def not a fail-proof way of preventing dust, just mainly makes it easier to use for me, but assume it helps with the dust issue slightly. Regarding the vignetting, I can definitely say I have NEVER had an issue with that. Anyone who does have an issue must be using something different than the GA-1. hope that helps my friend!

@zapelectricbikes9402 2 года назад

Have that exact same setup with the GRIII and the filter (from day 1) but still have tons of dust on the sensor. It's just a reality on this camera and my number one gripe. Great images and one of my fave ever but not a great enduring adventure camera bc it's not weather sealed.

@DozierGraphic 2 года назад

Can't disagree, even though I haven't had the issue, it's always going to be a threat. But I use the GA-1 more for the way I hold the camera than the dust. Definitely not any proof it works against the dust. Thanks for the comment!

@stevieb7121 3 года назад

I used this method for a while but eventually wanted to go back to the slim-line profile of the original camera. What I now have is a tight, push-on metal cap that fits on the bayonet ring. This stops dust getting to the lens mechanism while the camera is in the bag/pocket and is quickly removed with a twist of the bayonet. There's also no extra glass to shoot through. The extra glass was only a concern, for me, when there's a risk of flare from dust if shooting into the light. Good video and tip!

@DozierGraphic 3 года назад

Great idea on the push-on cap as well Stevie! I failed to point out in this particular video that I like the GA-1 also because of the way I can scissor it while walking, it's a comfortable holding method for me.

the price of the camera it should come with the Ricoh Lens Adapter GA-1

@DozierGraphic 3 года назад

lol That would be nice. But there's a lot of people that wouldn't use it, due to the fact it inhibits pocketing the camera, which is why a lot of people buy it in the first place. I would think it would come with the 21mm wide-angle, which is the main purpose of it, but it doesn't.

@owensoft 3 года назад

Because I keep my camera in my pocket its hard to use the adapter because it adds too much bulk. Currently I use a stick on UV filter and the metal cap while the camera is in my pocket. Been doing this for about 5 months now. When the camera is not in my pocket I keep it in a bubble wrap bag so that dust floating around does not settle on it or under the ring dial.

@DozierGraphic 3 года назад

That cap certainly is a good idea for pocket protection. And yes, mine goes right into the bubble wrap as soon as I'm done!

@heinundpiet 2 года назад

DIY idea to fix the dust problem 🙂 I bought a GR III a few days ago. Regarding the dust issue with the GR, I had a maybe weird but maybe useful idea to fix the dust issue DIY instead of sending the GR to Ricoh for a costly cleaning. As I was watching the video and thouhgt about how to avoid the dust problem myself, it suddenly came to my mind how much air is sucked out of food (e.g. bread) and how strong it could be compressed when I vacuum food with a food vacuum sealer, that I recently bought. If dust gets sucked into the camera when the lens is retracted, why not try vacuuming it out - with a food vacuum sealer. Put the GR in a sealing bag or box and when you vacuum out the air, maybe the dust will come out of the camera too, or at least clear the sensor of dust? Not sure if the vacuum can hurt the camera, I don't think so. Just a spontaneous idea.

@DozierGraphic 2 года назад

Just remember it's not a 'proven' fact that it works. It certainly would help when it's sprinkling unexpectedly, or if water/mist were to hit the camera, but even though I've still had no issues, it's always a possibility. I'd never let that stop me from buying or using it though. The other main reason for the GA-1 coupler with UV filter is for the comfort of how I hold the camera. Thanks for the comment bill! Enjoy!

It's certainly not the answer to dust on the sensor, but it's the only way I could hold/shoot the camera (with the GA-1 coupler) so regardless of whether it prevents dust is still preferable for me. But that's why I stress it's certainly not a definite solution to prevent dust. I'm probably just lucky! I wish they could find a way to solve the issue.

Lens opens and retracts within the housing of the coupler. It also allows you to 'wipe off' your lens with your shirt, etc and not worry about scratching the lens.

After an intense use on a trip to Australia (obviously before the Corona pandemic..) for 6 weeks and after ‘normal’ use of the camera for almost 2.5 years, it has pretty much dust on the sensor. I will probably have to get it cleaned by Ricoh, although I don’t know the price for this yet... However, I will probably not get such an adapter, because it is absolutely not compatible with the most important factor which of course is the tininess of the camera. I keep it in my bag or pants or where ever.. and its this ease of use which I love. Well, this love will probably cost me a few hundreds bucks, still worth it.

@DozierGraphic 3 года назад

Thanks for sharing Etienne. I think you make a good point - sometimes it comes down to a choice of convenience vs cost of sensor cleaning. Not happy that it might come down to an either/or in this situation, but I guess that's the price we pay for compact convenience. I choose to keep the cover on, but I understand everyone uses it in a different manner and the GA-1 isn't comfortable or compatible with the way some people get the most of out this camera.

Understandable point, but with the cheaper quality/priced Samsung, you do lose quality and even though I'm pissed about the cheap plastic wheel on the back, there is no doubt the quality of the camera, images and many other features place this camera above most others.

And than it's not compact anymore so the whole idea of the camera is gone

@DozierGraphic 3 года назад

In what way? Even with the GA-1 attached, I can hide the entire camera in the palm of my hand. Looks like a phone if anyone glances at it. The fact I wear a gopro vest makes it obvious, but without the vest, the camera is easier to conceal in your hand with the GA-1, as it gives you something to wrap your fingers around. So it depends on how you use it. Definitely does not take away the compact concept, unless you want to put it in your pocket, which I would never do with a $900 camera.
