Its been two years so I thought it was time for an update: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2tuwjBGbOy0.html

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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!

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

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

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

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

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.

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 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.

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

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'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!

Time to buy the god damn Ricoh.

I was thinking about picking up a used Sony rx100. I heard it was good for low light conditions and the one inch sensor was decent. Any thoughts or suggestions?

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.

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...

Brilliant. You really made me laugh. You're the best

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

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

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

Will there ever be a Ricoh GRII successor? With some minor improvements, it could be THE camera is was looking for (to me it's the closest thing to the things I like about something like a Ricoh GR1v, with the ease of the modern digital era opposed to shooting film).

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

I am looking at an apsc compact camera for travelling mostly used for landscape photography and then some street photography. I've been mainly looking at the ricoh gr ii and the fuji x70. which one would you recommend for this usecase?

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.

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

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).

Brilliantly done Matthias. Enjoyed this a great deal.

Brilliant ending and very entertaining !!

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 made me sub your channel! Also super excited because i'm getting my Ricoh GR II tomorrow! 😊😊😊

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]

I need a camera with two buttons one button for pictures and one button for videos and that's it that cost under the can you help me with that thank you

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

Loved the ending to the video. Love your stuff! Also now I need a Ricoh.

Ricoh is the best; I rarely use zoom but wonder if they could squeeze a 3 to 4 zoom into it since they have a protruding lens but in same dimensions? Best camera for sure would like a larger sensor 35mm film size but...

Haha. Love it! I got a great laugh at the results! Thank you for doing what you do!

interested to know what would be the best point and shoot monochrome

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

Dude! Awesome video! The ending was gold!

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

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

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.

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

Another great video. I loved the ending, I had such a good laugh when I worked out what was happening. Thank you😀

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.

Damn son! I watched many videos of yours but this made me subscribe to you! Keep up the good work and peace

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

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

The autofocus on gr2 is faster than gr1?

Hi Mattias, Thanks for this fine review. I want to get the new Olympus om-d e-m10 mark III for filmography, I know it has 16mb sensor which is small for today cameras, it shoots 4k in 24,25,30 fps, and unfortunately, no video review that shows its video capabilities in depth. can it shoot raw/pro-res and other things as well. Do you have any experience with this camera? An in depth review will be great.

What lens cap is on the Leica?

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

I chose Ricoh and love it! Great video!

Wow... what a great video and with what a great ending! Thank you, didn't even know that Ricoh had such great capacities! )))

Great videos and I always enjoy watching your videos. I am curious with Fuji's new impact camera FX 10 that has come out. Would you still pick the X 70 first? Best Duane

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

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

Dear Mattias, I would like to buy a camera . Mainly I shoot landscape, nature and I love black and white photography too. What camera you would recommend ? Appreciate you advice, thank you !!

I LOVED the ending! Thank you for the informative video :)

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

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.

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!!

That ending with a twist... Awesome!

Sir, im going to buy a fujifilm x70 do you think i’m gonna regret buying it? Help me please please please

Great video. On my second Ricoh gr2 after many different cameras. Superb for my needs. If a new one came out with a pop up digital finder, I'd buy it.

I love everything about this video, Mattias you are fantastic

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

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

Fabulous! Love the ending, too!!

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.

Best video yet, and they're all great!

Love the scoring!! Fair, impartial and accurate!! 😁

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.

Good comparison! Not sure I understand the final point system though. Ricoh vs a6000?

@Mattias Burling ricoh grii or xf10? It's hard to find used gr ii in my country, so if i want one I have to buy brand new and it's $500. While I can easily find used xf10 just for under $250. I just want pocketable camera with decent IQ for family, for more serious stuff I use my XT2.

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... 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.

What a rollercoaster :D Amazing!

That was delightful.

Which one has the better screen, especially in sunlight situations?

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

Wonderful scoring system!! The best!

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!

You should test out the pentax mx-1 thats my compact by choice. And the screen tilts. !!

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

Awesome video, i still use the X100 original the most, for travels and everyday captures. Small enough, put an Toshiba FlashAir wifi card and its up to date and to all social photo needs :)

i hoped that Ricoh will make an interchangeable lenses camera with leaf shutter.. really2 hoping it..

This video really put a smile on my face! Well done!
