@@RICOHGRPHOTOGRAPHY that’s not actual legal reasons. Not how the law works. Bad tutorial.
@@RICOHGRPHOTOGRAPHY you Didn't blur the people out properly... If you go to the blurred shots and use that arrow keys in the last frame you expose who they are... Not blurred at all
One time Lukasz flashed me in Shibuya, but he forgot his camera
LOL! :)
It’s in his anus. Nature’s Aperture. Rumor has it he can go down f/0.95 with his
Great tips and photos, thanks for sharing.
Loved tbis very informative with examples
Such a pity the in-body flash was removed from the GR III. I guess it was a trade-off for IBIS... Ahhh, first-world problems.
Really nice dude! Is there any drawbacks to getting a flash for my GRii that isn't TTL? ie your one shoots in sync still no problem?
Great video! I was thiking on buy the FlashQ Q20 II, not sure If i need a better one
Well done and great shots, which flash do you use?
Great video! May I know which flash is this. I want to get one for my GR3
Cool shots and explanations of camera and flash settings. I see that you have your bounce card/catch light in use which would automatically zoom your flash to 14/20mm. Just curious, is that what your zoom setting is? Thanks 🙏
Great video! I have wanted to learn how to get that look of slow sync. Just curious, what power setting did you use on the flash and did you need to adjust that for distance during the session?
Thanks! Unfortunately, I don't remember the power setting but it wasn't 1/1 for sure. It was maybe around 1/4 to 1/32 somewhere. I would say just experiment and what works in your particular lighting situation.
Hi! I've little problem with my GRIIIx on Manual mode I can't use REAR (second courtain) flash option - it's only in AV mode. Not make any sense for me. Any advice?
Awesome video, I'm waaaay to shy to try something like this in the Netherlands, and I'm sure that I would get arrested if I did something like this to strangers.
I do have a question though; why did you choose to blur certain faces over others in this video?
Loved the video, such a striking effect to play around with :D Keep up the work :)
As for the video in Montmartre, for legal reasons, we have preferred to blur out the faces of people who are not wearing a mask
@@RICOHGRPHOTOGRAPHY Ah thanks for the info! Makes sense!
I wonder how to use flash without popping the built-in flash. Mine just not allow me to turn on the flash setting at all, even with the external flash on.
Really enjoyed this one. Fantastic results. Want to try this but afraid I might get my a** kicked for firing a flash on people's faces. Also just discovered this cool channel. Much respect to Ricoh for letting street photog RUclipsrs do the videos in their own way.
Didn't easily see if question was previously asked... What determined wither or not you blurred subject face?
I havent been able to find an answer to this question but, I use an all manual flash from lightpix labs for the GR. The problem is that when I use the flash with ISO 100 at night, the screen is too dark to see anything because the screen isnt compensating for the flash. Is it because it isnt a ricoh brand flash. I still use the flash but just do point and shoot cause 28mm is wide enough to get the subject with that snap focus distance but it would be nice if there was a way for thr screen to brighten up to do flash photgraphy portraits at night with the GR iii. But still, another great video in the series!
If you set your exposure fully manually and select settings that result in a dark image, then yes the screen will be dark. I was shooting with manual exposure settings as well, but I chose settings that allowed some ambient light in the camera and therefore I could see something on the screen.
@@JimBarcelona That is also a very good point! :)
Hi, What about your flash power setting? Thx🙏🏻🙏🏻
What picture profile are you using
Nice video! What Flash were you using and what was your typical power setting?
I was using a Ricoh GF-1. But I don't recall the power setting. Probably somewhere in the middle?
i’m sure i cannot find rear curtain sync on my manual flash when attached to ricoh GR III and IIIx. its kind of frustrating since you state you can do rear curtain but in fact there’s only slow sync in the menu. anyone can help me?
What was the specific make and model of flash you used on this shoot?
I used a Ricoh GF-1
7:30 Woah, that was quick! Ever played with color gels on the street?
Haven't tried but it should be fun! :)
Hi I cannot seem to find the setting for Rear Curtain on the Ricoh, any ideas? It does not appear to be possible with the Ricoh GRiii, am I wrong?
I’ve also been looking for a way to use rear-curtain sync on the GR III (I used it a lot on my GR II), and am wondering if you had figured it out. Please do let me know if you’ve found a work-around! 🙏🏼
Same doubt here!
So you mention the rear curtain sync, I can't find anywhere to set this on my GRIII, and in testing it seems to just be front curtain sync by default

@@DanielDurazoS I believe it has to be defined on the flash itself and it has to be in TTL mode.
If I would do this in Germany I would be arrested for Exhibition or similar-.....
ye u gave no freedom
Hello, What is the name of the flash?🙂
I guess the woman at 5:19 asked you to delete right ? How did you manage the confrontation with her ? It's interesting to speak about this too.
Shoot with with an off camera flash cord. You will get far better results.
were some of the face blurred out in post-production?
Yes, as for the video in Montmartre, for legal reasons, we have preferred to blur out the faces of people who are not wearing a mask.
@@RICOHGRPHOTOGRAPHY how about just stop taking pictures of random people with a flash 1 meter away from them?
I've always wanted to flash people
If I did this where I lived I would get jumped
I use an old GR Digital II and I have to pop out the tiny flash to be able to use my mounted flash. The software of these early digital cameras was really something...
Nice video. Love Ricoh cameras.
I also recently made a video with some pictures, you can check it out. Keep on!

you Didn't blur the people out properly... If you go to the blurred shots and use that arrow keys in the last frame you expose who they are
I am not sure if firing a flash to someone riding a bike is a wise thing to do... I am not sure how I feel about this video. But at least I learned something new and that is good.
I don't think they even notice it since it's from the side and from some distance. It's not much brighter than the street lights at this range.
@@EYExplore you are right, in Shibuya it'd be hard to notice 😎
If the guy in the video sees this comment I'd like to hear what his take on it is : I'm not sure I agree with the ethics of flashing an extremely bright light in peoples faces while they're doing their own thing. I have an astigmatism so lights like that are blinding for a short time. Also I think it's a bit disrespectful to do without asking. (But I'm new to this scene so I'd like to hear the other side)
I didn't think of astigmatism to be honest, but I do know the flash is not as bright as it seems and I'm not using it right in people's face. I would say at the distance and power that I used it at, it's not much bright than car headlights looked at head on. With street photography the ethical questions are entirely up to you. If you think it's disrespectful, then don't do it! I don't believe it's disrespectful. Maybe it's a bit annoying, but so are a lot of things in life. I don't believe I'm hurting anyone by doing this (individuals with astigmatism aside). Basically, I follow the golden rule, and I just don't mind if people take my photo in a public place (flash or no) and I also don't expect privacy in a public place. Therefore, street photography is ethical, to me. But of course not everyone agrees.
In this video he did it in Shibuya and totally ok. There are a lot of "flashing" lightning from the neon lights everywhere surrounding. People would never notice unless you put you camera in front of their nose.
Exactly my thought... Same here about the astigmatism. I have been photographing places in Germany, NYC, LA, and my favorite place of them all, Tokyo. It is easy there, because people are much less hostile. But the mentality to avoid conflict of the Japanese has to be respected... I would not want to flash anyone in the face... dim flash or strong flash, doesn't matter. Do that in Berlin and someone might break your nose.
i am confuse, everybody say GR II nice beaucse it owns flash, but nobody share pov or picture with it. >< any GR fans help ?
не знаю почему, но это очень заметно, что вы русский))) акцент, а также очень характерная трусоватость, присущая всем у кого предки жили при советской власти. привет из дождливого питера :)
😂 small camera with hugeeeee flash? Whyyyyyy????
Why not? What is wrong with this? It's not like I'm not strong enough to carry it with the flash! ;)
Yes, these days everyone is on their phones... kinda sad
Yup. Street photography today is boring. Same old shit in this boring world.
It’s completely RUDE to take photo of people in here - Japan without permission and he even did it with flash. So disrespectful. Why did Ricoh approve this kind of content? It’s very misleading and disrespectful.
Ricoh is advertising to street photographers and they do this stuff all the time. People have been taking flash photography of strangers for decades. No one cares.
