NEW Film Simulation "Negative Film" for Ricoh GR III - First Look!

i love this diary edition finish, it reminds me of gr ii special edition which i had - fantastic metal look

GRIV when

I have a very old but high tech Chinon genesis 3 camera and I'd love to get it back on the road taking film again. I love it even if the servo motor is quite noisy, but it can take pictures in the dark with infrared. It's pretty clever but like you say film isn't cheap and then you have to get it developed. One of the big advantages of the Chinon is it can't take a picture unless it's in focus so that saves wasted film.

Dust issue? Stop putting it in your fusty pockets LOL. It's a high end camera, treat it like so

Has anyone come across a Lightroom preset that mimics the negative film look?

Really great background !!!! ❤❤

Hey, great analysis of the Ricoh brand, did you use the gr3 or the gr3x for the samples ?

I’d love to own a Ricoh, but when it would be stretching my budget to buy one, and on top of that I hear people complain not only about dust, but loose dials, or even the camera failing outright, I just can’t justify the purchase. I think this is where some of the complaining about the special editions might come from, is people who really want to love the Ricoh GR but can’t justify it. And then, to those people, it seems like Ricoh is rereleasing a product with known issues to hold off on releasing something new that could potentially fix those issues. If anything though, I’m glad to hear you and most other people seem to have no problems and enjoy using your Ricoh.

Well, I personally do enjoy shooting videos with the Negative film👍

Samuel hi! Thank you for your honesty about the Ricoh GR iii... that shows in the way you express your opinions about the camera.
I never owned a Ricoh GR and I am strongly thinking about getting one, but as some, I am waiting for the next one (Ricoh GR iv)...
Of all the problems and different tastes that people seem to have with Ricoh GR iii or the changes that they want for the next model... to my humble opinion if I could pick one change (or problem addressed), that would be a solution of the dust problem.
WHY THIS and not a bigger battery, or the return of the flash, or a flip screen or faster focusing or whatever else people want...
Well, the whole point (as far as I can understand) of Ricoh GR is to be a pocketable camera and ready to shoot in an instant which the camera is very good as many agree...
Battery problem, just get more batteries.
Flash problem, get a flash.
Flip screen, it would be great but no real problem, just do the work or after some time as many photographers do when they know their camera, they shoot whithout even checking the screen either on low or high angle...
Others mention better focus but as far as I can understand IF you understand how to appropriately use focus, especially Snap focus, you are more than well...
BUT if there is a dust problem (I honestly don't know how much of a problem it is), then it beats the purpose and the way you carry the camera, because since this is a snap shot camera, how better to carry it than have it on a pocket just as it is, no covers for the lense or extra little cases etc. and in less than 2-4 second, take it out and take a shot... If you are afraid to use it like that, bare in the pocket, because some dust might stay on it and then get in the sensor... then it beats the purpose it was built for, right? And as far as I can understand IT IS NOT EASY TO CLEAN THE SENSOR like on many other cameras because of the way the camera is built. So you probably have to send the camera to a Recoh center in order to clean the sensor. And for more than a few that means waitings for a couple of weeks...
Anyway, I do hope that this is addressed at some point, but whatever the case, this looks like a great camera to have and shoot with...
Take care...🙂

Yes film prices are increasing a lot, I think I will quit shooting on 35 mms

I actually like the Greige color and I don’t mind paying a little xtra for the customizations. You can buy Adidas and the special color way will cost more, some cars simply add gold badges and charge thousands more. I don’t wanna say everyone who complains about the price are not able to buy one but in tech that is often the case. Like food cultures are different so people shouldn’t yuk someone’s yum.

Great video, appreciate the honesty

i just ordered the Diary Edition and i hope it will come soon. imo, it's the most beautiful one of all the GRs, however, they all are cute.

Is the diary edition the only version that has the 2 GB of internal storage??

still rocking a GRII, never had a dust problem and been in pretty dusty places…Patiently waiting for the GRIV where I hope they re-include the legendary pop-up flash from the GRII (only reason I haven’t purchased the GRIII)

I enjoy 120 b&w film and my Bronica. Being strongly left handed the GR3 is too difficult to use for me. I have a Fuji. So far as colourful editions of cameras are concerned Pentax did many versions of the DSLR’s they manufactured.

I am still a GXR shooter with Leica M Voigtländer lenses, what can I say :)

Wasn't able to update..after following the steps and when it prompts to press Menu Button and On Button nothing happens. Very dissatisfied and have emailed Ricoh.

Why don't you shoot with Leica? Look at Thorsten Overgaard !

snapshot photography therefore bring back the built in flash

Coming up with a solution to the dust issue, soon on my channel in a very short video 🙂

Personally, I'll probably just shoot less film but go on shooting it. I like the standard setting photos best of what you showed us from the GR.

Dude, your stuff is great, don't sweat it.

hate the diarrhea version of the new GR, why they don't focus on getting a new version

You missed so many amazing street photos happening outside in the background. 😆

People who worry about dust have obviously never used a film camera.

Hi Samuel. I found your videos interesting on the griiix i was just wondering about your views on the dust issue with gr's in general. I was contemplating getting one or perhaps the new x100v from Fuji perhaps better sealed. What do you think? Thanks Matt

I couldn't find this info anywhere. If the GR IIIx is attached to a powerbank to charge the battery, can you still use it? Of course, it would be clumsy to have a wire hanging and the powerbank in a bag or pocket, but I just wondered it it were technically possible to still use the camera when it is plugged in by USB C to an external battery pack. Thanks for your videos. Am thinking of splashing out on my first GR as an upgrade for my phone.

Excelente vídeo, muy interesante la nueva propuesta para tus próximos vídeos. Y muchas gracias por los subtítulos en español. Un cordial saludo desde Mar del Plata, Argentina.

Hello. Where I can order your strap?

Oooh I really want to see that conversation with Bello! Good thing I'm a member! And, for the new GR Dairy Edition, I think that the champagne color scheme has one HUGE advantage: champagne coloring of cheap plastic consumer products from 20 years ago is a great look to have if you want people to act naturally and not be intimidated or concerned about the fact that you're pointing a camera in their direction. It has the 100% easy-going thrift store vibes. I don't have a GR but if there's a Diary edition GR IIIX in that color scheme for the same price as other versions, I might opt for the champagne positive vibes!

The actual test reminds me of the user settings of GRD2：
Posi like Contrast +1/Sharpness 0/Saturation +1
Nega like Contrast -1 Sharpness 0/Saturation -1
It happened to be the two user settings I used most in those years.

That’s sony 😂

看起來像RICOH CX系列的配色思維。

Great video. Negative film fits a lot what I shoot and I’m excited to update my firmware and give it a whirl. I also shoot Fuji and it’s really annoying that they reserve new simulations for new bodies. Thank you Ricoh for negative film!

As for dust, I had the issue bad after shooting my GR III in a dust storm in Tucson, AZ. 😂 I took it apart, cleaned the sensor, and 15 minutes later it was clear as new. Not that hard folks.

SO great! I'm wondering why the topic and intro is Chinese? It will be translated in viewer's language automatically?😁

I don't really see any difference between classic film and negative film. Or very very light difference.

I like this new Diary edition, and am very glad to get the new film simulation in the firmware update. (I also like the original black edition). The GRIII is an awesome camera! Also loved your discussion about "snapshot" photography. Thank you!

When i shoot film i use black and white Fomapan its a good price. And so i stil can shoot film 35mm and 120 mm

I think this is great - could someone help describe the difference between snapshot photography and street photography? I hear snapshot and imagine using zone foucsing and doing quick photos and walking around instead of working a scene or waiting for someone to walk in the scene??
