In this video, I dwell upon the issue of the dust in the sensor which unfortunately happens to the best of us and also give insight on the button set up for daily use of the camera.

Hi hi! May i know what’s your best presets for ricoh gr3x please?

[@annashtraus]

To be honest just shooting on the positive preset in the camera and then do whatever I feel like is missing from it in Lightroom. What kind of style you like? Positive is quite much on the yellow style

The viewers are only interested in new gear? I hope not! I like to think I watch videos to study composition and technique but I will admit that sometimes I watch just because it's an interesting location. And I do watch videos about gear that I own, which isn't really logical. What am I going to do if they say it's crap and I already bought it....

The most popular video on this channel is the one about this camera, and the other one is about Fuji xs10. I more follow what the people I subscribed to do than particular gear … but hard to deny gear videos are popular

Anna I just bought a GRiiiX with dust on the sensor. I couldn’t see the dust. Here is how I’m going to deal with it.
Vacuum cleaner. Suck the dust off the sensor. Sounds crazy. Who knows?
Besides taping the ports, I’m placing a UV filter over the lens. Hope that helps prevents getting more dust.
I’m having difficulty setting the camera up. The images are almost black in bright sunset. I’ve tried setting the U1-3 without success. I’ve also tried P mode without success.

I think you need to switch it to something else from the highlight-weighted exposure metering and try in p to add exposure compensation +1?

This is the only thing that prevent me to buy GR III 🥲. Had X100S since launched, RX100m6 for 5 years, no dust issue at all. Other people say this is a common issue. But I don't think so. Hopefully they do something with GR IV.
