When it comes to a small film-like photo camera. The Ricoh Grii and Griiix are two of the best and smallest most versatile film-like photo camera you should own. They are affordable compared to what most people love nowadays such as the Fujifilm line of cameras and more importantly the fujix100v. But this camera is one that you will carry in your pocket to take photos everywhere you go.

I was NOT looking anywhere near cameras or camera reviews but for whatever reason your video was there and I watched it. This was a really well made video. Really nice art, man.
thank you for watching!
"My daily notebook"... perfect way to describe photography. Thank you for the inspiration.
Nothing beats printing your photographs. Really makes them come alive.
Do you print your own, or send out to a printer? Any recommendations of printers in either case? Thx.
I have been wondering: everyone talks about how 'cinematic' or 'film like' cameras can be. Why don't we just bring back film? Make the home processing process really streamlined and have a race to build the smallest, fastest and cheapest film processing home units?
@@zimmhone FIlm was back bro but the prices got raised too often and now its just to expensive so everyone is looking for digital alternatives thats why these small old cameras are the hype now
@@zimmhone I do shoot film too. Love it. I guess digital always had to live up to film. Was a kind of benchmark digital was aiming for but with more resolution.
There is a beauty to the organic grain (pixel) structure of film. If some digital cameras can capture that feel then it would be super for film lovers who can’t afford to shoot film 🙂
@@zimmhone Because it's like 100x cheaper to simulate film (and it's more flexible and less labor) just no reason to go film unless you have a really specific project.
I can just tell that you're going to have 100k subscribers by the end of this year. You have a great ability to tell the viewer information, while also forming a story. I'm excited to see you grow :)
😅 Comments like this are extremely encouraging! Thanks for following along.
Comparatively speaking, you're one of the better evaluators out there. Glad I stumbled onto your channel.
Could really feel the passion here, even though you're more soft-spoken. Earned a subscriber here, love the style.
Edward, first, thank you for being a calm, methodical speaker with no crazy gimmicks!! Loved this video; it explains exactly what the Ricoh is. You have a new subscriber.
I sold my X100V and bought both Ricohs with the money. (and still had some left) Not an easy decision because I loved the Fuji film simulations. But I take so many more photos with the Ricohs because I always have one with me.
Oh and btw. I love the gray jacket you are wearing in this video - it looks so clean!
I always have my x100v with me ;)
I'm about to do the same, I love the X100V but just wish it was a little more compact. Sooooooo time to sell it and pick up the Ricoh GR.
Very good video.
He gives his main message up front, clearly and from the heart.
One can tell that he has experience and he can back up his assertions.
I kinda want that camera now…….
Printing is good. When people get older and pass away family will look around the house and see prints. Not hard drives and usb sticks and social media. I do think its still important to backup files and tell family about those backup files.
facts dot com! I need to get even better at it myself
I like the GR series, good video. Honestly, if you want a more filmic look in a digital camera, you can't beat the early and mid 00s digicams with CCD sensors IMO. They have zoom lenses so you arent stuck at a wide focal length, many have IS, some also have an ND filter built in (like my Nikon CoolPix P7100) and they are much, much cheaper. Any of the older Fuji Finepix with the SuperCCD sensors are the closest to film in a digital camera Ive ever seen. Especially if you can get one of the EXR models like my F70EXR that was one of the first to get the film simulations like Provia, Velvia and Astia. I picked up mine for $45.
Best example of the new negative film. I’ve got to cop that. I like how it subtly lifted the shadows.
exactly! I gotta explore it more but so far so very good!
Great video! I’m a Fuji 100F user, but almost picked up the Ricoh when I was in the market. Both are incredible cameras. I was really intrigued by the idea of printing my shots. I currently don’t have a printer that could produce the quality I would want unfortunately. I would love to see a video in the future about how to print your own pictures; and if you don’t have a printer, where you recommend getting prints. I love the size and border of your prints.
youtube algorithm can surprise sometimes. if there is a small film like digicam, it's the Sigma fixed lens cameras, also the OG of this segment. Not only the operation and focus is like film, the output from RAW images also like film. I was going into Ricoh GR but then the tech is so old now like Ricoh has no love for GR anymore. For street, stealth, convenience, nothign beats a smartphone besides it can also shoot good video. The dynamic range on photos and videos from smartphones also insane. I used to shoot RAW exclusively prior smartphone.
I have both the Ricoh's and they are fantastic, but not for everyone. I recently printed a book on my walk to work over the last twelve months, it only takes me ten minutes to get to work. Its quite mad the different light and weather you take for granted on that small journey. Good luck with your channel.
This video was amazing, I appreciate how you gave the review so genuinely and also your printed pictures are awesome 🙌🏾 The camera looks perfect the size and picture quality is amazing.
i've always kind of wanted to start taking photos but never got around to it. couple months ago this video got on my feed and i watched it and loved the vid, looked up more on this camera, then other cameras and eventually bought a fuji camera. now i love taking photos and take it with me everywhere. all thanks to you my dude. thanks for this great vid.
Glad to here your out creating! Have fun and enjoy! Thank you for the kind words!
"it's my daily notebook"
That is a FANTASTIC way of putting it!
Even though I'm shooting film exclusively for 2023, no way I'm getting rid of my GRIII. Eventually I know i'll go back to it. 2, 3 years later.. doesn't matter, it's worth keeping until then. Great video brother.
Haha yup, that’s exactly my journey I just came off of.
Your life seems anything but mundane and you've got the shots to prove it. You are choosing to see beauty where others may not! Beautiful work here young man! You have inspired me to look in this direction as I've wanted to get into photography and was considering all those multi-lens DSLRs. I absolutely love the quality of image you're getting here and have to reconsider. Love the portability of point and shoot right out of a pocket. Thanks for sharing your work and this info. Much love, health, happiness and success to you! Your eye will make you richer than you know and it has nothing to do with finances! Although you can certainly go far with that eye of yours!
Appreciate the kind words!
This video is real art
thank you~
I'm in agreement. I have the Fuji XT2 which is small but even so, if I get a wider lens to shoot my preferred style at 28mm (18mm the Fuji) it will make the camera bulkier. So yes Ricoh ticks the boxes for portability and wide angle. In fact my minimal less bulk approach means I use a camera phone mostly - again around 28mm equivalent - in fact the phone got me to liking that angle. Also printing out is a great idea - but also books are nice too.
great photographs. I personally have a XE-4 with the 27mm pancake and the GR3, i think its a great combo. For normal and wide angle shooting.
Which of these two would you prefer?
@@paulirineomontano5074 depends on the environment, but usually the XE is a great allrounder except in tight areas, atleast with the 27mm pancake..
Loved this. Love how grounded and heartfelt your delivery is.
Appreciate it!
Man I loved the video. Subject aside, the video quality, the music and tightness of the script - subscribed!
Great video that goes beyond the technical side. Well done!🎉
Your a great street photographer, enjoyed every minute of this video 🙂
I went to the the GRiii just under a year ago from Fuji ...no regrets. Every time I shoot with the Ricoh I end up with a smile on my face and a feeling of disbelief at the quality available from the GRiii, not only is it portable and a delight to use but the lens is fantastic.
Your photos are absolutely great!
thank you!
Didn't expect to find a video from the perspective that I needed.
I am always suggested photography videos for professionals. I still can't afford this camera, but it does fit the description of what I would want from a camera.
thanks for watching. hey know that even if you cant afford this the gr1 and gr2 are out there and I freaking love and miss the gr2 soo much! That is my favorite of the lineup.
Definitely looking into the Ricoh GRiiiX. I have the Fujifilm XF10, a great camera, very much neck-and-neck with the GRiii!
nice would love to see images from that cam
I really enjoyed this. You're telling your story and I really like that.
thanks for watching!
I really like your writing and I really like the really life sentiment
thank you!
I have the GR DIGITAL II (2007) and oh my, what a great camera that was at that time, you don't even need a bag for it. I have yet to get one, coz I get more and more used to using the phone camera. But with the APSC sensor, I might consider it again when the next GR is available. With this camera, you can go ninja mode. Great video Edward. Keep up the great work.
Great video, Edward. I bought a GRIII recently and so far I think it's a fantastic camera - so small and easy to use, and gives great results. I'm taking it on an upcoming trip and plan on using it extensively.
This video gave me such a good vibe. It made me want to go out and shoot and just cherish those candid, spontaneous moments. Great video man ✌🏻
Thanks for watching! ✌🏿
What an informative & well produced video! I'll be sticking around!
Appreciate it!
Your video is making me miss Denver!
Great video! I love how calm and peaceful you presented everything
thanks for tuning in!
GR3 has been my fav since 2019 as well. Negative Film recently has also been a dope addition.
Yea! I cant wait to use it more especially when summer rolls around.
I replaced my Ricoh GR1v when it eventually died like most of them do and replaced it with the GRIIIx. Couldn't be happier. With a Moment camera strap, I never leave the house without this around my neck. Highly recommended piece of gear.
You use a camera strap with your gr3x? I usually just walk around with it an adjustable wrist strap. How is it walking around with it?
@@joshuakosloski6873 Because the camera is so tiny and lightweight, I basically wear the camera like a necklace every time I leave the house
@rob fracisco which neckstrap did you buy? Is it comfortable? Ive wanted a strap for my gr3 but the ones on that site are pretty expensive.
@@joshuakosloski6873 the one I have is called the Moment Minimalist neck strap. it's really lightweight, like a shoelace material. I don't think they sell it anymore, but you might be able to find one online somewhere. It was cheap.
I've just picked up a barely used GRIII a week ago and just started shooting street/architecture photography as well as mundane life momentd, and, i have to admit that i'm having a very hard time figuring out how to take good pitcures with it.
The autofocus is always missing the point, it's not as snappy as advertised.. I guess i'll figure it out by using it, but compared to my bigger Sony A7III, i'm finding the learning curve to be quite steep.
I love it's form factor tho, and love the fact that you can pair it to your phone. I'm definitely taking it with me everytime i go out !
Yea compared to Sonys and the autofocus on those systems it’s much different but I find spot focusing to help a ton. Just try out the different focus modes to see what works best for you.
I was looking for a camera that I could travel with, not so expensive and also that felt like an extension of myself when I'm out. I think I´ll choose this over the fuji since your thoughts about this camera are exactly what I really wanted
Amazing video Edward, love your style and of course love this camera
It's video is not so horrible, too. Because of its awesome color processing. FHD is good enough.
For these insane prices, they need to announce the GRIV already. Will pre-order immediately
Cool video explaining the differences. GRIIIx is tempting since it's the same focal length as my Rollei 35S. Haven't found use for wide angle since downtown SF is pretty much empty these days.
thanks! thats how downtown Denver is lately just super dead, so gotta get very creative and experiemental
great video Eddie. Good diction and enunciation
Hi Edward - love your calm vibe and thoughtful reflection. Also beautiful photographs! Great job :)
nice video mate - the small form factor makes it really attractable
Yea i love it so much! thanks for watching
Great points bud and wonderful images. Happy to see your uploads. I hope 2023 has been great so far, enjoy it.
🫡
Samsung E-X1 and EX-2 are my tiny take-every-day-with-mes. They have reasonable zooms, fast lenses and a reasonable price
Take a look at the Panasonic lumix gm1 an absolute beast of an smaller factor....as any other cam. And you even have cool adjustable presets build in... Good video greetings from germany
This was a really sick video. Great music choices and edits, smooth transitions for topics and clips. Also you snuck a review in there too which is craxy
😅 thanks
X-T30 with old Soviet lens like Industar 61 55mm 2.8 will give you way more analogue look in very portable form factor. Not pocketable, but will fit in your bag easily.
Cool video and appreciate your straight forward approach. What I noticed in your images is that the grain pattern is really nice.
Just found your channel. Blown away Subbed. Inspiring, informative, and excellent production. Yeah, I don't know what else to say besides I had to write this comment. This vid on the Ricoh is a chef's kiss. Great work. Keep it up. And keep going with your photography journey. You have an awesome eye.
thank you for your kind words, means a lot!
Wonderful video Edward, it's cool to watch when somebody is so dedicated to a certain camera. If I didn't already have my trusty Fuji X70, I'd defo go for the Ricoh. Cheers!
Nice video man! Cool cameras.
Nice video Edward, my first time around. Some killer pictures there u got with these two!
thank you!
I have the GR1 and love it. It is one of my daily carries.
I wanna try that one just for the look!
@@eddie_g I have been getting some fantastic shots from it.
I'm so glad this video popped in the feed. Great review.👍
Thanks for watching!
Those have a sweet silhouette
Great video. I'm also based in Denver and been wanting to shoot a GR.... Maybe one day. My canon r6 isn't that annoying to lug around.
Hope to see you around some time. I'm usually shooting around downtown, union station.
Great video ! I love your words and i love your pictures. Simple and honest.
Take care and hi from France !
Merci!
I have an iPhone 13 pro max. I did a comparison between it and My GR3 The GR3 I have kills my fuji's and the iPhone. I love the fuji X100 and Pros but not so much the others. The GR is a ultra light weight camera. Keep up the good work
Watched you for the First time here.. You do some great Videos man, love it, keep it up!
a standing machine that stops time! very nice 👍🏼
Great review! Enjoyed every second of this.
please make a video about your settings thanks
I may make a new one but if you go to my Ricoh playlist I already have a video on it I made a few years ago
I still prefer my X100V, but my used Ricoh GR3 was all of $600 and a no-brainer at that price. It's a great little "take everywhere camera" where the X100 is a camera you have to plan to take and travels in a bag, minimum... not a pocket.
Just found your channel and I love it already, amazing quality my friend
i feel like the phone is really the ultimate portable camera. Further, i edit all my images on the phone meaning the image gets to where I want it much quicker and I'm more prone to share tht image compared to images being archived on a computer somewhere for "later" editing. if you are shooting digital images- the phone encapsulates it all.
I still need to try out this camera. Great job!!!
thanks for watching!
Great video, you have definitely peeked my interest on this camera
Nice one Eddie. Never leave home without your GR 📸
Facts!
I like this channel.. And a well spoken young man... SUBBED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cool photographs, cool presentation. I really enjoyed watching this, thank you.
Appreciate you dropping by!
lovely work man!
Thank you!
Loved this vid - beautiful work
your photos are great!
thanks for watching!
Excellent video. Glad the algorithm did it's thing for once!
Same! 🫡 appreciate you taking the time to watch!
Beautiful work Edward!
Great video about ricoh gr series and me also regrets selling mine 😢
This was a great video! Thanks!,,
I am about to buy the old Nikon Coolpix A. Prices are around $500 and I don’t want to spend the money for a new camera. But the FUJIFILM X100VI sure looks nice. Maybe a good thing we can’t get one yet 😂
Really like this video 👍
can you please make a video about how you print out your photos or your priting setup at home?
Great video, really enjoyed that! Subscribed
thank you! Means a ton!
So much talent ! Loved your work !
Nice work on this video. I shoot a X100V primary but am strongly considering adding a GR3
Def worth a shot. Both are great cameras
Me too! My X100V is stunning but it's just a tiny bit too big for everyday. This video has got me interested for sure.
Awesome video, so relate to everything you said thank you😅
It’s amazing when a tool comes along and just sticks with you for all the right reasons. I’m glad Ricoh GR series does that for you Eddie and lovely to see those prints 👊🏽
thanks Sathya. I wish i could dive more deeply into film but its just too expensive at the moment.
That was a wonderful video😊
great photos,man! love how you're in love with photography! 😍
Thanks for watching! Means a lot!
Would love to see a video about how you print those those photos
Coming soon!
Awesome video man, this might just be my next (first proper) camera.
Thanks, its definitely worth having.
Fantastic video and amazing photos. 👏🏻
The Ricoh cameras are so underrated
I love your video and I love the Ricoh GR
