Hi, whats the Best settings for sharp full screen focus for brickwork/architectural deadpan shots? Also can this camera produce quality A0 size prints?
What is positive film? Whats the benefits? And i see you have the sharpness set to - 2 is this making the picture soft focus?
Chris Hewson i think gr raw is too sharp. Thats why.
Probably cose down the aperture to f8 or higher and use a tripod. Image quality wise you should be able to print A0 size prints. But you can't expect enormous sharpness from close distance to the print.
Positive Film is a look that is based on positive slide film. It is usually very vibrant. There are no benefits, it's just a different look than the standard colors. I set the sharpness to -2 because the camera sharpens the jpeg files automatically. "0" doesn't mean the sharpness is off. If you don't want any sharpness added to your files go down to the lowest value. The focus is not affected by this.
I know RUclipsrs say they don't like to do these types of videos but they're extremely helpful for the product. I think I've gotten a lot more use out of my Ricoh just because of this video! somehow when companies try to do this themselves they come across very corporate and are not nearly as direct and straightforward
Ordered mine today…it’s going to be a wild ride!
Thanks for this really helpful video especially the setting etc. After watching this and your other gr vids I’ve ordered my gr3 which arrives on Saturday so the day after tomorrow I can start using your tips and information to get acquainted so again, thanks a lot.
Awesome! Glad to hear that! Have fun with the cam!
Considering the way you focus ( use the central focus point and then recompose the picture), why not using "Tracking AF" ?
Super hilfreiches Video!! 👍
for the parameter easy enough for the GR, the big problem is that it is unreliable, I had the GR I, GR II, and I had the same problem, the zom that is blogging, the GR II down permanently, damage a good camera in the street
Dear Samuel at 14:59 you talk about touch autofocus and shoot, you like to have it, but is there already. What do you mean, what you miss? The third raw, exactly doing what you want?
I meant touch to release the shutter. No autofocus before that. It's not possible on the GRIII. I often prefocus and then wait for the moment. By just touching the screen to take a photo I could be more stealthy when shooting street.
Thanks Samuel for this very instructive video! I am curious about the film simulations and modifications that you do to those (saturation etc), which look very interesting. I always thought that those would be applied to the jpegs only? So for your specific settings with raw shooting only, wouldn't these settings be ignored for your (raw) files?
I have the same question…what was the answer??
@@elliotresnick5433 It's for when he converts RAW to JPEG using RAW development in-camera. He's just showing how he adjusts the standard POSITIVE film sim for that process.
For those who couldn't get the Image Sync app to work, try deleting the app and downloading it again.
dude i've lost two ring caps, any suggestions?
yu cao I’ve had one disappear as well.... I was thinking about a small piece of gaffers tape on inside of ring as a shim.... haven’t tried yet.....
That sucks man! Maybe gaffer it...
@@1401chico I've lost mine too. Apparently it's a known problem with the GR lll. Had a GR l for 5 years and never lost one. Had a GR lll for a few weeks and it's gone. Cost to replace in UK is £29, which is extortionate for what it is. I'm waiting for a replacement so when I get it I'll try to tape it...or stick a blob of blu tack on it!
Hey Samuel, I've seen this video but for some reason missed the whole intro homage to my earlier videos.. ha ha, thanks, very funny. Click click!!
Hope you didn't mind! :D Big fan of your channel!
Living in Tokyo and I just picked up my GRIII today. I am new to the camera and this tutorial was extremely helpful. Wanted to say thank you for the time and effort you have put into this.
Thanks a lot for this Video. I have a GR-2, do you make also a video about your Setting Configuration for the GR-2?
also looking for this
Also interested in settings and configurations for GR II. I just picked up a used GR II and that would be extremely helpful.
Also interested for GR II. Good work ! I bought one for you and I like it so much, 🙏
Also interested for GR II.
Bought the GR III today, and now working my way through this tutorial. My previous camera was a GR Digital II, and it's like night and day in terms of how effortlessly you can just snap a picture and get incredible results. Thank you for the video!
Oh wow you made a big jump then! :) Congratulations on the new camera and wish you a good time with it!
Great video. FYI, there is a "touch-to-shoot" function for GR III. Select the "AF Point+Focus+Shoot" option in "Touch AF". Very handy.
Thank you super helpful
Rather strange that he missed that
@@errgo2713this video is old, maybe is something they added later on a firmware update?
@@MissRiceLyn Ah yes - you're prob right
This is going to be extremely helpful. Just ordered the GR3x. You explain things very well, if a bit fast, but I have been working with a Fujifilm camera for a while, so I pretty much understand what you are saying. Will definitely enjoy learning more from your videos. A HUGE thank you!!
Big Head Taco haha -- I nearly choked on my coffee, hilarious. Excellent video. I'm always fascinated how other photographer's set up their cameras. I'm thoroughly enjoying my GRIII. I set my side movie mode button to be able to quickly change film simulations. I love the Positive Film as well (I might have set mine one more degree of saturation compared to yours). I also think the Ricoh black and white simulations are amazing. Very unique. They are so good that I'm actually finding myself using SOOC JPG's. Something I've never done in my other cameras. Although the DNG files have a lot of opportunity to really push and pull results -- this is a powerful little camera. Better than I had hoped. It's now my take with me everywhere daily camera. Interestingly enough, it has changed how I am shooting in the streets compared to my OMD's and Panasonic's. So much fun! I'm still very much eyeing the Fuji system though... Thanks for all the valuable information you are sharing with us.
Hey Alex, glad to hear you enjoy the GRIII as much as I do! The black & white filters of the GRII are really special. I really love to use them for my Jpegs, too!
I agree, this a great learning video. I am new to the GRiii. The software seemed complicated at first, but reviewing this video several times really helped to simplify everything. No other video out there in English does as good a job.
Wow. This camera is not just beautiful aesthetically, nor only does it take amazingly high quality photographs, but it’s software has had just as much thought and attention? This camera is truly amazing. Thank you Ricoh for making a real product.
BiLL93x I’m not saying it’s a perfect camera, or that it is suitable for all styles of photography. But it’s extremely rounded and considered for the type of camera that it is.
@@BiLL93x I completely agree, I don't think this is intended to be bought by casual users looking for a nice P&S. I think it's aimed at prosumers/professionals/camera enthusiasts with disposable income or the ability to make money from the investment.
The target group for this camera is very niche. It is an ugly little camera that shoots high quality photos. There are die hard Ricoh GR fans that love the GR for what it is. It is definitely not for everyone. It's made for photographers who also know how to use it professionally.
@@BiLL93x At first I hated that it had no viewfinder but you get used to it after a while. I did buy an optical viewfinder but that didn't do it for me either and I hardly ever use it.
This is amazing. Thanks so much for sharing.
I set it up exactly as you did but I don't think my snapmode work. I do a full press but the focus is never there. Does anyone else have this problem?
shutter button needs AF+AE to work, I've been crazy about this the whole day
I have been struggling with this as well. When I back-button focus, the resulting focal point does not change when I do a full snap whike the shutter button is set to AE-lock. I'm only able to resolve this by setting the shutter button to AF+AE lock. Still, the video is a very nice walkthrough of camera settings.
Question - I can't seem to setup full press snap when I'm using the Fn button for triggering auto-focus, and setting shutter button to only lock AE. Is there a setting I'm missing? Full snap seems to work fine if I'm using the shutter button for triggering AF, it jumps to whatever distance I set for it. But with Fn button being the AF trigger, whichever way I press the shutter button it stays on the point I focused on with the Fn button ignoring the snap distance.
I have the same issue, maybe someone will help us.
Same issue too
same!
edit:
thinking of it, using the fn button focus technique disables the full press snap function, otherwise the fn focus technique would be way too slow (one would have to hold the shutter button half pressed for a short time!?)
firmware version 1.41 allows you to touch the lcd to shoot a snap focus photo!
I can't believe this tutorial is for free. Quick & straightforward! Thanks Samuel.
Maybe time for vid on GRIII gear? Just ordered JJC thumb rest (Amazon) & see that they also make a UV filter that sticks on lens. Any thoughts on this?
@Samuel: i really do not get this snap focus topic and maybe you can explain it to me a little better.
I have 2 scenarios.
1. i set AF to back FN button and exposure to shutter button:
- so if i focus in infinity with back FN button and lock exposure with shutter button how do i then take a snap? Do I need to release AF back button and shutter button and quickly press (without half press) shutter button even if shutter button is set to Exposure lock only?
2. i set shutter button to AE+AF lock:
I guess i need to release half press shutter button and quickly press it again (without half press)?
Thanks!
@Samuel: i really can not get to work this snap focus / shot topic.
What i would like to have is :- be able to autofocus and also do a quick snap when needed.
How can i do this?
Thanks a lot. I just bought GR3 yesterday and your vid really help me understand how it works. Cheers!
PS...I would gladly pay for a menu guide!!! The manual that comes with the camera leaves a lot to be desired.
Help! How do you use snap, when you're on AF and focusing with your Fn-Button? When I now push the shutter (without pressing Fn first) the image is not sharp at all. Does the shutter have to do the focusing? (Am I stupid?) Why is it beneficial anyhow, to focus with your Fn-Button and not with the shutter-button?
unfortunately the snap focus mode doesn't work when fn focus is activated... But it also wouldn't make sense because you usually use back button focus to hold a focus so that you can take multiple pictures even when subjects walk infront of your scene and it won't affect the focus point. If Snap focus would be available then, you would have to hold the FN button while using the shutter button. You could also do that with the regular shutter buttom by holding the shutter half pressed (once you focused on subject) and take pictures while in half press mode to hold the focus. Then do the full press shutter for snap focus. This is a easier way to use snap focus. But it would be nice if it would also be available for back button focusing.
@@SamuelStreetlife Hi and thanks for the great videos. I found the work around to have full press snap focus and Fn button autofocus at the same time:
1. In Still shooting menu:
-'Focus' to Snap
-'Full Press Snap' to On
2. In Customize settings menu:
-'Shutter button setting' to AE Lock
-'FN Button Setting' -> 'Fn button' to Enable AF
-'FN Button Setting' -> 'Focus settings' to Select AF (or whatever apart from 'Same as shutter' or ' Snap')
This way you have the ability to autofocus with the FN button while retaining snap focus ability by full pressing the shutter.
Keep up the good work and stay safe! Cheers
Best videos on griii out there. I didn’t know about the editing function while pressing the wifi! Much Appreciated
Luckily I stumbled upon that feature just before making this video :D
Using the first user mode you setup, I feel like the snap focus isn't working with back button focussing. It seems to still be locked on the AF selection. - Do you know what might be up? Just to clarify if I explicitly set the focus mode to snap it is very sharp and in focus. Cheers
This video was incredibly useful for me as I just got the gr3 and felt both overwhelmed and underwhelmed at the same time by it.
Mainly a manual film shooter, I got the gr3 as a super compact partner to my film photography and for a casual EDC camera but I still want to be in control an not just buy an expensive point and shoot (which the gr3 definitely feels like in default mode)
Now that you explained how you use it I think it’ll be a great camera to use. I love the idea of having separate AE and AF buttons! The snap focus will also be really fun to use I bet.
Thanks for this awesome video! Been following your channel recently and loving all the content you post! You’re the reason why I got the gr in the first place 🙂
I love all your videos Samuel. As I continue my research for my first real camera and scour videos, I look forward to coming back and viewing something on your channel. Your videos are just so pleasant, professionally informative, and you do an excellent job with them as a whole. Thank you!
Thank you for your comment! That is very nice to hear! I appreciate it :) thanks for the support!
the snapfocus(FP) is the unique function of GR series (XF10 do have it but barely cant adjust anymore) that's why I bought GR3 for my backup camera with it held in my neck while using D850 in the street
That's how I shoot nowdays too! Bigger Camera around the neck, GR in my hand :)
This was an excellent presentation. I just purchased a GR111X and your video was exactly what I was looking for to walk me through the settings and use of the camera. I found it easy to follow and use. Thanks for presenting it.
How do i activate snap focus like you have yours? I like the FN to focus but when i press shutter it doesn't snap when things are in my case 2m from camera.
This seems to be a thing and I'm not finding an answer for it... Sigh
B&H just got a new shipment of RICOH GR III in and I put in my order. It's arriving tomorrow. Your Settings suggestions came just in time. Also, your previous GR III review was why I decided to try the Ricoh over my Fuji X100 T upgrade. Thanks for the Photo Love!
Nice! Happy to hear that! The X100T + GRIII is a great combo!
Fantastic review, extremely helpful, thanks!
Just one question: If you use the fn button to lock AE instead of back-button focusing, you can operate very similarly with locking the exposure and then recomposing to centre-focus, but you don't have to disable the shutter to work both for snap focus on full press and normal focusing on half press. Is that not a better way of doing it (you would still leave the centre-weighed exposure metering of course)?
@Paul Fensome Yes, it works very well, I just tested it for you. Be aware that you have to keep the Fn button pressed to achieve AE lock, but that's not really a problem (other cameras give you a menu option to press to lock and press again to unlock, which I prefer, but that's a minor issue).
Looks awesome - if I had to get another camera it'd be this one
It seemed like an amazing camera. How durable is it really? Great review
This is super useful, thanks! I’m considering buying this, but wanted to know more about the features and manual options. As a Fuji shooter, the ability to tweak and customize is essential. Clearly, this P&S camera is much more versatile than I expected.
Thank you for your hard work on this excellent guide. I just got my GR3. This will be very helpful!
That is great! Happy to hear that
Great tutorial, Samuel. Thank you ! When I try to SAVE SETTINGS for U1 in C (Customize settings), I get this message: "This function is not available in the current mode." What am I doing wrong?
i dont have a GRIII but i'm watching simply because i like your videos
Appreciate it Ray :)
Thank you for that impressive description Samuel. I’m right new to the GR (Urban SE 🤩) though I will set up mine step by step according to your video. I’m wondering if there might a PDF to download? 😅 … cheers from my hood!!
You do some great videos btw! I have been solely a fuji user until I got this GRiii and enjoyed the many sources of info on how to set up the fuji cameras incl books (e.g., Tony Phillips). Thus I am disappointed in the GRiii, given its long and legendary history that the only book I can find is in Chinese and can not find any complete run thrus on how to set up the camera menu. You do a pretty good job here and on a podcast you did with a guy in a striped shirt, but it still leaves questions. Took me the longest time to figure out where the other 3 user settings were for example!! (recall). I know it would be a boatload of work for you or someone, but I would certainly appreciate a COMPLETE video on settings, perhaps even a downloadable pdf or website. Maybe some day when there is another lock down and you have the time???? Your knowlege of the GR seems the best I have seen on the web...is there another source I could go to? Thanks for any support. And sincere thanks for the work you have already put into this.
Das kann ich nur voll unterstützen, voraus danke, danke für dieses prima Video. Erstaunlicherweise hat diese Kamera bei Fotobuchautoren überhaupt noch nicht die Beachtung gefunden, die sie aufgrund ihrer überragenden Bildqualität verdient und aufgrund ihrer komplexen Einstellmöglichkeiten auch nötig hätte.
I recently got to know about the brand RICOH. A genuine question. Why is the GRII still appreciated and used in 2020. It is a 13 year old camera. What makes it special ?
Thanks..
For a settings nerd like myself, the amount of customization that Ricoh offers is awesome if not a tad overwhelming. All standard film presets with fully customizable options, plus additional custom settings, and then multiplied by 4 for U1, U2, U2, and standard drive modes? Sheesh.
When you said that you would love Ricoh to let you shoot by touching your screen ... I think it does have it in that same screen you showed at 14:42 (AF Point + Focus + shoot )
yes because it was in an update 😉
Samuel, my Ricoh GRIII in manual mode does not allow me to use the main wheel, set to shutter speed, while the front aperture wheel works (the wheel works perfectly) why? Please help
Great video. You covered a lot of stuff at high speed but kept it very clear. I had to use the back button quite a lot to reinforce some of the points but that's just because I am new to the GRIII.
Hi Samuel ! Your videos are huge help for us.
By the way, i think I having hard time to understand about back focus technique. You said you like to focus middle and recompose the angle so you use FN button for focusing and press shutter button for capturing the image. But why do you need to use FN button as focus button when you can easily use shutter button as focus button by pressing it half? Is there any benefit from using Back button focus techniques ?
He has his set up so that a half press shutter button locks the exposure, so first you want to focus by placing the focus box area on the subject you than press the FN button locking the focus, than you point to an area that you want the auto exposure to meter from than you half press the shutter to lock the exposure, recompose the shot and click all the way the shutter button. This way you have total focus and exposure control whole composing a shot the way you see fit
THanks for a great video. Newbie question: I noticed in Manual mode once I select shutter speed and Aperture with Auto ISO my shutter speed does NOT stay at my selection as I move the focal point around. That confuses me as I thought those were locked into my selections in Manual Mode. Is there a setting I need to change via the menu?
Man, you put some much pressure on me by your videos that I had to drive to Manhattan camera store in a middle of all this Coronavirus craziness, and buy GRiii in emergency mode. I tried it yesterday going to Bronx. Tons of bad photos but several that I really I liked. I realize that this toy needs to be studied and practiced. Huge thanks to share your knowledge. The main challenge to me is the lack of EVF. In bright light I basically shoot in blind. Any idea how to help it? Your admirer forever. Irina.
Hello Irina, that is wonderful to hear! Congrats to your GRIII. It is a great documentary camera for these crazy times we are in right now. Not having a Viewfinder can be a problem sometimes but for me the highest brightness setting is usually bright enough. Ricoh also made two optical viewfinders that you can attach to the hotshoe. They are very plain viewfinders with no communicating to the camera so I would only use it if I absolutely cannot see anything. That's all the options you have unfortunately. And I agree with you, the GRIII is camera for photographers with some experience. But once you set it up the way you like it, it becomes very intuitive. Even I learn new ways of using the GRIII almost every day :) Happy shooting & stay safe, Samuel.
Superb video thanks, Just upgraded my beloved GR Digital II with a GRIII. Really informative as to the differences and the personal settings is most helpful. Only had a chance to take a few pics so far - all by P mode with very light editing in Lightroom and the results are sumptuous!
Different type of question: I intend to use the optical viewfinder, old GV-1, with my GRIII and wonder do you have an appropriately sized camera bag/pouch that fits the GRIII with the GV-1 attached?
Danke.
Where’s the lens hood from? I bought the Squarehood Model V but it’s so expensive I prefer a cheaper one since it’s just a lens hood…
This is so helpful, thank you!
Note : The highlight priority is available on most of the Olympus camera. Got an OMD EM10 mk2 before getting the GR, and it was present (since 2014) with highlight and shadow mode.
And I guess it's not specific to Ricoh to have this feature.
AND of course, thanks for all this content about the GR. Amazing little camera.
Hi Samuel. I have a doubt that I can’t resolve . Do you always press the shutter button for exposure lock and the fn for focus and finally you full press shutter button to take the photo?
What is best Ricoh GR IIIx settings to shoot in aperture mode f2.8 lowest ISO possible and best auto focus and all menu settings for portraits?
Full press snap doesn't work for me if the shutter button is set to just AE Lock. Am I missing something?
Ah, I see that Samuel addresses this in a reply to Jaroslav Sladek
below. Full press snap DOES NOT WORK if the shutter button is set to AE Lock only.
Very helpful video. I’m new to GR iii. Thanks.
when using Auto Iso the minimum shutter speed of 125 will be totally ignored by the camera. Any ideas what to do?
my GR arrives tomorrow, ill be viewing this for a 3rd time then ;-) debated between the X100V and this for a long time...
With the newest firmware update, how would you say the AF is in comparison with the X100F? I have the X100F, but thinking of selling it for this. There aren' much videos out there.
Wow, al lot information. Thank you very much.
Do I loose my settings if I update the Software?
Hey Samuel!
Danke für das umfangreiche Video.
Du hast den Autofokus ja auch am Fn Knopf. Ich hab das Problem, dass der Full Press Snap nicht funktioniert, wenn ich den Autofokus vom Auslöser entferne. Eine Idee was man noch umstellen könnte?
Man, I really want to stick with Fujifilm but after all your videos I’m definitely going to buy a gr iii. This video is gold for street photographers, thank you!
I hope you have concidered it well because the camera that is right for me doesn't need to be right for everyone. You also cannot compare a system like fujifilm with lot's of different camera bodies and lenses to a single compact camera that has a fixed 28mm lens :) The GR can be a great addition to a fuji kit. Just don't want to be give a false image and want everyone to make their own decision :)Because I love 28mm, the GR is ideal for me.
Hi Samuel, I'm trying to figure out if the gv-2 viewfinder can be a good investment for the GR3 ... But I can't find it anywhere as you see it through ...
Perfect timing! My GRiii arrives tomorrow. Danke! Tchuss.
That is awesome! Congrats and enjoy the cam :)
How do you use Full Press Snap and back button focus? If I set shutter button to only do AE lock, that basically disables Full Press Snap. No matter how fast I press shutter button, it will just take photo at current focus distance. Which is what you generally want with back button focus.
Jaroslav Sladek yeah i wondering the same cause on earlier videos Samuel stated it as well
The thing is the snap focus doesn't work anymore when you set your shutter to AE lock. It is really frustrating to me as well. That's why I had to set up my user mode 2 for snap focus so I can switch between back button focusing and snap focus. I hope Ricoh will fix this in the future.
@@SamuelStreetlife, thanks.
You can also have on of the buttons set up to quickly go to snap focus mode, instead of dedicated mode. But then you're using extra button.
Personally, I gave up on back button auto focus because of this. But I have my drive button set up to take my to MF when needed and use it a lot. I also have my Fn button set up to perform Select AF no matter what mode I am in. So I'll be in MF mode, using Fn button to focus via Select AF, and when I need another focus mode or Full press snap, quick press on Drive takes me to last mode used, which is usually some AF mode and FPS works. A bit clunky, but one thing I like about MF mode is that I get the distance scale at all times.
Let's see if Ricoh does anything, though I don't really know how that would work.
Well, I have just purchased the Ricoh GRiiix. Spent ages looking at many UTube videos to get a handle on using this camera. I found your video SO comprehensive, almost to the point of exhaustion, except, of course, I know I will use your tutorial many times to drill down into your amazingly comprehensive detail. Thank you for sharing so much of your experience. Very impressed with your cool walk through of your settings …
This is a great video. I watched this a few months ago when I first bought this camera and used this guide to set up the U1 preset thinking that I would use it occasionally and just shoot my own way first but I find that I primarily shoot in this mode and now can't image not using the FN button to focus on any other camera. Being able to turn off the LED light for focussing and that annoying focussing sound is great too as I'm easily annoyed by such features.
I primarily shoot in raw and edit in camera raw via adobe bridge as I really enjoy the ability to add my style to each photograph. For me it's similar to an artist and their distinctive style.
did you plug the GR III to an external recorder to record the menu???
Bought my GR3x last month for holiday......so far so good.......still on the long learning curve.....!!! Great video +subscribed..!!..Best wishes from Plymouth UK..!!
Thanks Peter!🙏🏻 good to hear you are enjoying your GR3x and you got something out of my video :) best wishes from Germany!
When shooting in U1 with the settings listed the live view does not change, when changing either shutter or aperture.
Does anyone have wisdom on this?
Huge help, thanks
I wish I could use back button focus AND snap focus. If anyone has a way to do so pls post.
WOW, GREAT GRIII Guide. Can I ask how do you record GRIII operating system in the video? It's awesome ~~~~!
Thank you! I used a Atomos Ninja Blade recorder and a HDMI to USB-C cable to connect the GR to the recorder :)
Samuel L. Streetlife thank you , very appreciate it~~
the day I used my compact as alaise as my phone, I would have progressed. thank you for this presentation.
Is there a simple out of the box mode for initial point and shoot? Until one learns the full range of features? Also what is the user manual like? tks
Just got my GRIII, this video was very helpful. Thank you for explaining and sharing your setup. Great video!
Can you update your new user settings for the GRIII X?
I'm still undecided whether to get the 28mm or 40mm version
Thanks a lot. Very useful. Ordered mine yesterday. Very excited
Thank you Lintaro. I'm a new user of GR3. it's really helpful!
such a great video. just acquired the new ricoh gr iii street edition and happy alreay with the image quality. coming out from fuji cameras this menu seems soooo intuitive. thanks for your dedication to this camera, as i think is the greatest!
Looking forward to watching this when I get home. Quick question.. does the ring from the GR III fit the GR II? I lost mine like a year ago and it's bothered me ever since. Even contacted Ricoh and they said they didn't make that part anymore.
The Ring on the GRIII has a different size than the ring of the GRII. So it won't fit... Sorry to hear that! Maybe you can find a broken GR/GRII on ebay or somewhere to get the ring.
@@SamuelStreetlife Nooooo!!! Lol. Thanks for the reply.
Great video. Lots of settings in this small camera. This helps.
touch and shoot is available on the menu touch AF 3rd option = AF point + focus + shoot
Yes, but I meant releasing the shutter without the AF. As I always prefocus and then compose, the Touch AF would be in the way of taking fast snaps for me.
@@SamuelStreetlife ok, I see. That would be an interesting feature
I stumbled across your channel whilst researching the Ricoh GRiii,I’ve really enjoyed your content and I’ve now ordered one.
Thanks very much,you’ve definitely helped my decision to buy a Ricoh again,I had the GRi many years ago.
The Full press snap mode doesn’t seem to work if you have your shutter button setting on AE Lock like you have. Can you confirm this Samuel?
Yes that is unfortunately true! It sucks... I hope this will be fixed someday.
love the cam and the tutorial but the biggest issue I have this cam is the lack of live view when using auto ISO in M mode. what the LCD tells you is vastly different from the end result.
Great Video Thank You
I’m shocked that this video even has dislikes. It’s fantastic. Great video man!
Just got my GRIII, put all your settings in to mine. This helped a lot, thanks.
I have a 2013 GR is it worth upgrading to the GR III thanks!
Ricoh can we get these settings as a default! '-'
That x100f judging you on the side.
Positive setting thank you❤️❤️❤️
