If I Could Only Have One Camera

- I've been asked before if I could only have one camera, which would it be. Well, here's my answer and here's why!
The original APS-C Ricoh GR from 2013. It's an incredible camera, and that hasn't changed just because over a decade has past. It makes the perfect hiking, biking, landscape, family documenting camera when you don't want the extra gear and you just want something in your pocket. (Since I've had kids that has become an increasingly important feature ;) )
The star tracker I mentioned is the Omegon MiniTrack. I have the LX2 but seems that's not sold anymore: amzn.to/3VAzYGX

Because people are asking and I forgot to mention in the video: The star tracker I use is called the Omegon MiniTrack LX2. Apparently replaced with the LX3 and LX4 now. I put a link in the description if you're interested. The analog nature of it and how you set it up is way cool. I love it. Throw any camera on there that'll let you manually change the shutter speed 30+ seconds.
This green GR is actually gorgeous
Agreed :) Ever since I grabbed the black one I was waiting for a good deal on this green one. A few years of patience paid off!
Please give more details about the mechanical star tracker!
Omegon LX series star tracker I've got one, I've got a LX2, the latest is LX4 its very affordable
Ooo, I didn't know about the new one. Yeah I have the LX2. It's great.
@@snappiness oh yeah improved on it more. Bit crazy as the lx2 was good enough too. My sibling has that one
I always had a love/hate relationship with the Ricoh. I love to hate it! I always wanted to purchase a new or used one but the one thing that always held me back was Ricoh's unwillingness to respond and correct the complaints from their customers on the lens attracting dirt on the sensor which forced customers to send the camera into Ricoh for a very expensive repair. But I am glad to see that you are enjoying your Ricoh and having great luck with it. Best of luck in your photography journey.

The Olympus E-P5 has served me well for over 5 years as my side camera for work (travelling photographer, mostly in east/south-east Asia in rural/less travelled areas and towns) usually having a 20mm or 15mm f1.7 on a shoulder strap while my main body to still not stick out much is an E-M5.iii with a 75mm f1.8 for intimate portraits from a distance to keep from being a distraction and a G9+12-40mm f2.8 in my bag (I loaned my E-M1.iii to my partner to try MFT, and then gave it to them after). If OM-System could release a new E-P5, or even Panasonic a G100 (I actually like the body a lot even with the bigger 20mm f1.4, they just gimped it on purpose... no IBIS is a mystery for a "vlogging" camera), just updated internally to the same level of specs it had back in 2013 (1/8000 mechanical shutter if no solid e-shutter, toggle for mode/settings, 2 dials, tilt screen, better EVF for the G100, etc.) plus weather sealing, I'd preorder 2 of either right now.
Sadly, the E-P5's have doubled in asking price since I tried to buy a couple more as backups in case mine gets damaged/stolen while traveling. I do have an E-PL8 in my bag and my partner an E-PL7 that acts basically the same as my E-P5. They're a bit lower spec in some areas (1 dial, no toggle switch, 1/4000 mechanical shutter max) but are a still great little cameras for people not wanting the E-M10.ii spec wise for the most part, but are fine without a built-in EVF (all 3 I mentioned can use the fantastic Olympus EVF add-on) or just like the styling (the E-PL7 and E-PL8 are basically the same camera, just the 7 is a baby E-P5 in design and the 8 is another retro-ish design).
I still have my old RX100V too
such great shots, even in the dark...
As a Ricoh GR ambassador, I approve of this message! 😅😉🔥
Great video and excellent camera! Images look fantastic! Thanks again for adding to my gear list! ;) Always wonderful content here and love seeing older cameras get more of the spotlight!
Spot on. Still have mine from 2013 and have a legacy of amazing photos thanks to it always being with me on trips, with kids and now grandkids. Great sensor, plus amazing lens, plus in your pocket = magic. Love your channel.
If I could only have one camera I think I'd be rather miserable lol 😂😂
Sony HX90. 24-720mm optical. Basically a Sony RX100 with smaller sensor.
I love mine. Pop up View Finder. + Pop up Flash. And much cheaper.
@@billwong7035 “Markus Pix” and “Camera Conspiracies” reviewed that little Sony.
Well the HX99 which has 4k. Don’t need it. Plus the older 90 shoots a little warmer.
It's incredible. I had ours sitting in a cabinet for years and brought it back out a few months ago. It goes everywhere with me now.
As Great a 📸 as I think the GR is I just put it down to it having the Ricoh Pentax DNA. I have the KP and the Kiii mk iii I just love everything they allow you to do without having to think about who makes the camera. You are all about photography and that’s what makes you stand out from the crowd. Keep up the good work Sir.
Ergonomics, Makes this my favorite camera. As a 70 year old with lots of Nikon and Fujifilm
Ricoh GR feels so good in my hand. APS-C / 28mm 2.8 is perfect / Hold in one hand easily.
Don’t go out “looking” for shots. Go out and have fun.. and be ready for that moment. 💁🏻♀️💕
@@Koji-888Agreed. The GR is always in my Day Pack. Walking around in town. Gen 1 Flash.
Or if I see a nice composition I can slow down and think about my settings.
I feel like the people in this channel would appreciate the GR Digital series of this camera.
I've been taking my 10 megapixel GRD II everywhere now for a couple of years. Love the CCD sensor for black and white pictures but the colors are also nice and nostalgic.
The batteries last me for a WEEK with casual shooting
Without fail, this channel inspires me to find yet another awesome camera. Nice thinkpad btw. ;)
Haha thanks! Trying to revive some old digicams with it. I love Thinkpads.
That's a really nice choice. For me, I'd never be able to choose - it's all about "best in slot", with 11 slots, spanning 35mm film, MF film, and digital. Oddly I do have a favorite lens, and it's an odd one - the Tamron 35-80mm F2.8-3.8 model "01A" macro zoom. Every bit as sharp as my Canon L 24-70, but so much more fun to use:) If forced to pick a pocket camera winner - the Fujifilm X70 gets my vote.
I definitely think you should give the Nikon Coolpix A a look too! I've been using it as a replacement GR (didn't want to shell out the money) and it offers a very similar experience. Tack sharp Nikon glass, 16mp APS-C sensor, and some pleasing enough noise, I feel comfy using it at ISO 4000! To top it off, it adds a manual focusing ring and there's a gorgeous silver version. I have one of said silver, and would be happy to lend it to ya if you ever wanted to take a look!
I love your content! Much love!
I appreciate having come across your content. You convinced me that vintage cameras should have as much of a place in the world of photography as modern cameras! I picked up an old Canon 30D with just a 50mm prime and I’ve never had a more fun experience shooting pictures! Keep it up, you are easily my favorite photographer.
I had two (GR and GR3). Fantastic cameras, but crazy dust collectors on sensor even keeping them protected at all times.
They do, and stopped down I have to clone out a lot of dust.
I went on a trip last month and had to pick one camera to with me. It was exactly this GR. Great little beast!
Really beautiful pictures man! 📸✨🤝
I typically don't take much stock in what others say about various bits of kit and gear but there was something super validating about hearing you say that about the GR. I don't have an OG GR but I do have a GRIII that I love to pieces. Honestly, when I'm on shoots, I'll often bring it out and convince my clients that I'm using it for "proofing" (which literally means nothing in any sense of the word) when I'm actually taking the photos I want with it. It sucks that, as you mentioned, many people don't take that camera seriously. It's because it doesn't have enough sticky-outy bits to be a "real camera" but I've taken pictures with it and have had everyone from the layman to the most seasoned photographer wonder "what did you capture that with" and when I mention the GRIII (and after they have a bit of a Google) they are quite dumbfounder and often wondering why they don't own one!
The major dif is the number od pixels. Also, the new HDF that is dropping looks really interesting. Loved the few images I've seen from it. Although you do lose the ND.
Yes, it's my favourite camera. I really don't see why one would pay more for the GR III. It was the first compact where I was amazed about the image quality, and the amount of options to adjust to your way of shooting.
It's true about the lens being sharp at f2.8. A lot of bigger packages won't even give you that sharpness. Because of the sharpness, you still can do a decent crop and still have enough of detail.
I have the same setup (viewfinder and wide angle lens attachment) for my GR III. It’s a great grab and go camera.
the Ricoh GR here is either rare to find good used one or really expensive, so I use the alternative.... sony A5100 with ttartisan 27mm
A small mirrorless with a compact prime is a great setup! I had that lens on Fuji and loved it.
There's a bunch of INCREDIBLE shots in this video ^^
I love this version of GR so much! Especially the wooden grip which more versatile than rubber ones. Had it for 7+ years and sadly it broke last year. Hope to score one again so time soon. Cheers!
So many versions, is this the GR V? Looks interesting anyway. Good video as usual. I think your GX1 review is a mini masterpiece.
Great video! Just ordered one of these yesterday off of Ebay from Japan, can't wait to try it! I'll get the OVF too once I get used to using the cam, got some wasabi batts too, this seems like the version to get for the positive film sim, the colors on this model look better SOOC than the new ones !
Very nice, enjoy!
Perfect video, now to order those spare batteries I've been meaning to buy. I can't move away from the positive film simulation on this model either, the newer models just don't have the same look.
I've heard that. Love to shoot positive film on this.
Well, I'm in good company! Had a GR II, and now the GR IIIx, which is better (for me) with its 40mm-equiv lens. My faorite camera. Not as good ergonomics as my Pentax DSLR, but the GR fits in my shirt pocket. There when I need it. Truly a fine, fine camera!
Great video! I've had mine since it came out and absolutely love it. What were the filter mounts/adaptors you have for yours? I'd live to be able to throw some filters on mine. Thank you.
I am using the official filter/lens adapter, the GH-3. There's some third party options (if you can find them) that are cheaper, or you can 3d print your own and add a step up ring to the front. I did that for a while before getting the GH-3 in a lot with the lens.
I've said many times that I preferred the original APS-C Ricoh GR over the GR2. I had never heard anyone else echo the sentiment, until now. It's one of those cameras I really wish I had never gotten rid of (especially now that the price on ALL the GR cameras of any sensor size have skyrocketed).
Wow! Not the camera I expected you to pick!! 😂 So cool!!
I love the Ricoh GR series. My "island camera" (assuming I had to pick a digital camera) would be my original first generation Fuji X100. I've never upgraded to a newer version, and I've made a "film recipe" that looks almost identical to my results on Kodak Double-X (my favourite black and white film). I shoot RAW+Jpeg and I'm actually often surprised at how often I end up loving the jpegs. I always backup and keep the RAWs of course, but I can't recommend those older 12-16mp sensors enough. I've always wanted to try a GR, as 28mm is my favourite focal length. All the best!
Great video. What do you think about the Canon G1X mark iii for an Island Camera?
I know you threw in the ‘juggling children’ line at the end, but for me it was key. The true one handed shooting experience is a real boon when you have a kid hanging off you. My GRIIIx was the only thing I brought with me on a recent trip to SoCal/Disney, for that very reason (ok, I brought an Instax SQ6 as well). I’m still interested in the 28mm, since I used to have a GRIII as well (sold to finance a K3iii), so maybe an older one might be worth it.
Yes! It really makes a huge difference. I think my answer could be different otherwise and I could carry more gear/switch lenses more easily, but in most situations it's a huge pain to do that and stop kids from running into the road/off a cliff lol
I once visited Russian blog where same Kodak fotos of north were presenting using Kodak digital back they were amazing
I’ve never owned a GR, but I just love these compact APSC cameras.
My favorite equivalent to the GR is a Fuji X-A1 with the 18 f/2 and the GR or Panasonic 28mm optical viewfinder. It’s about the size of the gr but I can change lenses. It’s not WR but it does have a beautiful tilt screen. It’s perfect and you can get them for about $150!
i have multiple full frame cameras.film cameras.tons of prime lenses and the list goes on....my rich GR is the best camera i own in my opinion..always gets great shots and the lens is unbeatable...truly a one of a kind camera
Cameras that use Sony IMX071 sensor include, Nikon D5100, Nikon D7000, Sony NEX-C3, Sony NEX-5N, Pentax K-5, Pentax K-30, Ricoh GR, Ricoh GR II, Fujifilm X-Pro1, Fujifilm X-E1, Fujifilm X-E2, Fujifilm X-T1 ... I have NEX-C3 and its so incredibly in color, i have sony A7, A7r first gen that I don't want a CCD anymore (the one exception is the Finepix Real 3D and F40).
I have a Fuji X70 for much of the same reasons. It's a smidge bulkier than the Ricoh but has a tilt screen. The sensor is the same size as the Ricoh but is the fantastic X-Trans II with wonderful colours. I've also got an OVF, although that does add to the bulk. Difficult to recommend the X70 now as prices are through the roof.
The APSC GR 1 and 2 are just so special! Such a shame Ricoh ruined the 3 by removing that pop up flash!
PDAF and IBIS are decent consolation tho, no?
@@944play who needs IBIS on a 28mm fixed lens camera lol
Every GR has had a flash, it’s what makes it so great, adding an external one just makes the camera massive.
That being said, I have seen a tiny little external flash being made by some third party on ig which looks like it would be a great consolation prize but I really wish they kept that damn pop up flash in the camera lol
hi, was wondering if its possible to use filters while using the wide angle lens? if so what mm do i need the filters to be? thanks
Yes.. the GRs are GReat ;) looking forward to the GR4, even though the new highlight filtered GRiii’s are on the market. I also use the GRiiix as a daily carry, not for street. Also makes for a good camera to scout out good locations needing the bigger, or more customized focal lengths, available via my GFX or smaller interchangeable lens cameras
Definitely one want, but I'm looking to find a 'well used' one cheap. I don't need another camera. Doesn't stop me wanting one :D
Awesome choice
When searching for a premium compact camera to take with me on bikepacking trips the GR (3 at the time) was on top of my shortlist. I eventually went with a Fuji XF10 which has almost identical specs (even identical sensor to the GR3), smaller size and half the price. Took some amazing shots with it but sometimes I wished i bought the GR since the handling isn't always great, especially for someone whose used to Pentax cameras for the last 20 years.
I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. On one hand I couldn't agree more, but on the other I purchased a GR (I) which like many from this era turned out to be a dud. Ricoh GR's are NOT CHEAP cameras, and sourcing one of these beautiful, and arguably best GR's ever made (when the of course, work) is a highly stressful gamble. I've owned a GR, a GRIII and a GRD4 and after being really disappointed with the GRIII which I ended up selling, I kept my GRD4 which is like a GR but with a lower resolution sensor and slower to write to an SD. BUT IT WORKS, and like the GR (I/II) has SOUL. I'm not holding out on Ricoh any longer to deliver. What a shame.
What's the name of that very handy (and tiny!) looking star-tracker??
EDIT: already found it: Omegon Mini Track LX2, not so tiny as I though, but handy as it works without batteries :-)
Ah, I forgot to list it somewhere. Yes, that's the one. True, not super mini but still fits in a backpack pretty easily and great for camping!
"If I could only have one camera, what would it be?" is such a hard question for someone like me who has a lot of cameras and loves almost all of them for many different reasons. I'd probably choose the Nikon D700 for its huge versatility, but I would really miss the Olympus E-1 for its CCD and colour output. If the camera to pick must be a compact camera with a fixed lens, then the answer would be a little easier - Fujifilm X70, hands down. Cheers, and keep up the good work! Oh, and thank you for producing videos that are interesting and enjoyable, without feeling the need to drop a full-fledged documentary for every topic, like a lot of other creators do. ;-) //Rick
Any tips of JPEG and/or post processing settings?
I have a GR3 and I would agree, as someone who uses the GR3 in any actual shooting jobs that I do I can attest
Reminds me of my Olympus E-M5II with 20mm f1.7 pancake. That and the 75mm convinced me to keep the camera.
This is easily one of my favourite cameras of all time
I’d really love to hear your thoughts on the Olympus tg6 or the om tg7 (basically the same camera)
I just got a GR that was incorrectly listed as a GR Digital, it was a very good deal including the GV1 viewfinder.
The GR just looks so smooth too 🤌🏼🥲
How close is the framing with the gv 1 viewfinder ? 😊
Just got the lumix fz300, not as compact as this but one hell of a good camera. Weather sealed as well :)
Heh, many of us would pick the 16MP GR/GR2 as our only camera!
I had the original from 2013 until my dog got car sick one day and threw up on top of it (!). Replaced it with the GR2.
BTW there's also the GV-2 viewfinder, which is 28mm only, a bit more compact, and cheaper than the GV-1.
Also, if you want to use a cheap wide lens adapter, it is possible to 3D print a mount for a ~49mm filter that will mount on the GR's adapter bayonet.
Yuck! haha. I did 3d print an adapter back in the day for just filters before I ended up getting the lens in a lot with the adapter. Great way to do it for cheap.
Unfortunately my choices are limited, due to the lack of weather sealing. I'm really curious to see what Leica is going to deliver in the D-Lux 8 soon.
**Bless** you for saying "I.S.O." and not "iso". (The rest of the video was great as well, of course.). :)
haha!
ISO says on their website is pronounced iso.. as in the old word isos
I got this during covid and I had to fix it the third time now, very enjoyable to use but also frustrating
I'm curious what you would think of the canon PowerShot g10
Hello, nice video great camera, Where can I find that 21mm attachment for that camera? And what adapter you recommend for add filters
I buy used camera gear from a few different places, and you can find those links in my description. The adapter you have a few options. You can 3d print your own (and attach a cheap step up ring), you can buy third party adapters, or the original Ricoh adapter. You can find all that stuff on ebay or maybe aliexpress.
@@snappiness thanks for the info
I'm hesitant to request for a GRD series video, cuz on one hand its cool to spotlight these super capable small sensor 28mm cameras, but on the other hand it's getting rarer by the day, GRD4 prices are very similar to the GRD5 (APS-C GR) even a few years ago
I have watched those closely and hear great things. I have the somewhat lesser sought out GX200, and it's great. So, I have no doubt the GRD series is as well.
Wait there is a viewfinder you can put om it ? Damn thats the Malin thing that hold me back from bying it .just cant shoot from the lcd like some do
i went for the a5100 from the same year. 24MP. brand new in a sealed box with one year warranty and kit lens for 313 USD last September.
It's a mighty little beast.
Nice camera. What lens do you put on it to keep it compact? That’s the beauty of the Ricoh, just slip it your pocket.
@crsantin Most compact is the 16mm pancake, but it's soft. The zoom kit lens is almost as small and is also stabilized.
@@crsantin 7Artisan 4mm F2.8, TTArtisan 10mm F2, Risespray 7.5mm F2, Brightin Star 35mm F0.95
what's the name of the wide angle attachment?
Briiliant!!
For digital it'd definitely be the GR (II though never had the original one) just how amazing it is to use in one hand makes it the perfect digital camera and yeah, the lens is i don't even know how they made it... it's so tiny.... for analog i'll choose my Bronica ETR though... portra800 in 645 just looks gorgeous and with Fuji atleast pretending like they're making 120 film again it's a dream
You know you can charge this from usb (eg from a power bank) using a Nikon UC-E6 cable?
I have a "modern" GR III...sometimes in some occasion I don't distinguish GR files from the Leica Q2 files...just to say how good it is. I can complain just if I need to take a portrait with not so much light, so the f2.8 is too dark. But otherwise it's an incredible camera.
I’m going to look for this at marketplace right now ☝🏻✌🏻
Had the GR3, but the constant sensor dust accumulation (that was pretty visible at f11-f16) was just to annoying.
I just picked up one of these (the plain black version) not even a month ago to replace my Ricoh GX100 that I EDC. It's brilliant. Truthfully, I can see myself getting rid of my other mirrorless cameras because I don't use them or feel the need to. But I won't ha ha.
I'm on the record for saying that if Ricoh makes a modern GX100/GX200, let's call it a GX300, that has an APS-C sensor, along with the GX# line's 24-72mm focal length, image stabilization, ability to add an EVF, and of course modern software, it will be the first camera I buy new, regardless of the price. Ricoh just does these compact cameras right.
Agreed! I was just looking at the Canon G1Xiii which is a compact APSC camera with a zoom lens. Would love to see Ricoh's take on something like that. Or, like you said, a smaller sensor GX300 would be great. I have the GX200 and love it. It'll make an appearance on this channel soon I hope.
Funny how when I was thinking "This could be interesting to use with my LX4, for widefield tracked astro" you showed the LX2 image aha
Yeah, it works really nicely. The camera has a setting to manual focus to infinity, and then just set it up and let it rip.
The GR series are very nice, but I find the single focal length too limiting. So I bought a GM1 with a couple of pancake lenses and use that instead. It requires a larger pocket, but then again I'm loathe to carry cameras in pockets, especially dust magnets like the GR.
A small M4/3 with some compact primes is great! Those lenses are very underrated!
I have the old GR1 analog camera. Still use it occasionally. Thought about the digital version but without an EVF it's not for me.
I got to try the GR1 last year and loved it for all the same reasons. I would buy one, but I just always see them with electronic errors that still make it usable but hard to switch modes and stuff.
For taking pictures, Sony 7C II is my choice. It has everything in a compact package.
My Fujifilm x70 is definitely one of those cameras I would never sell. 16mp crop sensors do quite well.
I'm addicted to collecting but my island camera is my Pentax K1 with 200mm prime.
So, this 10 year old point-and-shoot camera can be had, used, for only $500-700, depending on condition. Such a deal!
It looks almost like a tool that you would find in a hardware store, next to a hammer :)
I just went down the Pentax MX1 rabbit hole. Any reason you would choose this over the MX1 really?
They are quite different cameras, but generally yes I'd choose the GR over the MX1. But, the GR doesn't have the zoom the MX1 has, or the retro charm, so it all depends what you're going for.
Excuse me, but It is an object of desire. How much did you have to pay?
@@numbersix8919 I got a mint NOS boxed unit for MSRP of $499. I think $350 would be a more fair price but I’d rather pay a premium for NOS over used stuff with questionable results.
Can i know the model/make or name of the conversion lens that you have on this camera? TQ
It's the Ricoh GW-3 (wide angle) and the Ricoh GM-1 (macro)
@@snappinessThank you!
Prefer the Ricoh GRD with the 1.9 lens, smaller sensor but (truly pocket size) with fantastic image quality.
If forced to select a 28mm fixed lens digital as my island camera, I think I would select a Leica G3.
If I had to have one camera, I'd choose Nikon F2. No batteries needed. Totally manual. Perfect. Keep your electronic device. No good without batteries.
Second runner ups will be the Nikon FM/2 and Canon F1. Maybe consider an old screw mount Pentax Spotmatic.
I wrecked mine back then by dropping it into water, then changed to the Fuji x70 which I sold later for reasons I don't understand anymore. miss both of them.
Amazingly, my black one survived me skipping in a river and fully submerged (for just a second or two). I immediately took the battery out and let it dry on the bank of the river and felt super bummed. Then it turned on after and haven't had a problem since! But that would not be the norm at all. Kinda finicky cameras that seem to break easily.
I want a camera under $200 I have a canon SD 940 is should I keep it and save or is there a camera I can buy used
Get an Olympus Pen, Pen Lite, or Pen Mini, and the lens it comes with. The oldest ones have the most film-like sensors and the newer ones better IBIS. IBIS means in-body image stabilization. That's right, the camera holds the sensor steady for you. Sensor is smaller than the GR sensor. Happy hunting.
You can also get a Sony NEX camera with whatever lens it comes with, there were only three kit lenses. Sensor is the same size as the GR sensor. Have fun!
For me, it's Canon 7D with EFS 18-135mm kit lens.
I actually would say the gxr coolpix a are up there
Yes it’s a great camera, there’s no doubt about that. But Dont you think it’s overpriced ? I found one gr with a couple accessories and viewfinder for 850$. I don’t know it seems absurd to me (I love your videos, very fun to watch)
The Fuji xf10 (basically the same camera) would be my choice too
I still don't know if I'd take the X-T2 or my X-100S.
Probably the X-T2 for the ability yondo bice video, and the camer is still small enough (also weather sealing!)
And it's nice having the interchangeable lenses :)
I dont understand why there aren't more options for fixed lens cameras in 2024.
Photo quality remains the most important smartphone selling point.
A decade ago when phones were still iterating pretty fast, it made sense that the Galaxy Camera flopped.
But now that generational improvements are pretty small, it seems like it would be a slam dunk to sell "GRIII but it runs android"
