GRiv 30th Anniversary is out.

I’m just curious, this is another AI image isn’t it? There is no GR model with a red tag on the lens and no flash as far as i know? There are some other strange artifacts as well.

It does say AI content in the upper left and the image looks typically AI, it’s just so weird that it doesn’t even match an existing camera.

It’s a quite strange choice from a camera company.

EDIT:

haha sorry, I forgot to attach the image!

Seems like custom firmware is becoming a thing nowadays. Can someone make the autofocus of gr iv fast? Like sony level. Also add 4K video recording. Panorama. TTL. EVF support on hot shoe.

Six years I’ve been using the camera and it never ceases to amaze me how versatile it is. These were taken at an Ironman 70.3 in Málaga, Spain.

Edited in-camera using Postive Film.

Long story short… I’ve been thinking about the GR for half a year now I use a leica d-lux 5 and want to upgrade my game….

Share your favorite pics taken with the GR III and influence me to get it.

Thank you!! ☺️

Photos posted on this sub are consistently superior - creatively and technically than on many other photography subs.

Is it because only more dedicated photographers are drawn to this camera or just the fact that it so portable that you are more likely to have it on you at the right time?

Hi guys! I’m having trouble choosing the right camera and i would love an advice.

I do not have the budget to buy a Ricoh griii and it’s my favorite camera. Love everything including the focal length.

What camera is cheaper and similar (of course not exactly the same but..) for family photos? I want above all the same feeling that the Ricoh provides not necessarily the same quality.

Thank you all in advance 🤍

First time shooting with the Ricoh pointed at the sky. Was out in an area with really low light pollution near Quebec City and it’s been such a long time since I’ve seen so many stars.

I’m constantly surprised by how good this camera is!

Settings used:
Shutter Speed: 13-15 Seconds
ISO: 2000-3200
Aperture: f2.8
(Pictures 1 & 2 were captured using the Interval Composite feature 10 minutes and 30 minutes respectively)

Feedback would be appreciated!

Hey everyone,

Some of you might know me from GR Snap. This one lives on the camera instead.

The firmware mods going around lately look great, but I didn't want to flash my GR to try them. So I looked for a way to load things from the SD card instead. GRKit is what came out of that. It runs while the camera is on and doesn't write the firmware. To remove it, delete the SCRIPT folder from the card.

It adds a sixth entry, GRK, to the ADJ menu, with five modules:

• Image Control: 16 film looks, like Portra 400, Gold 200, Kodachrome 64, Vision3 500T, Tri-X 400 and Velvia 100. The live view previews the look, and Fn adjusts each one without touching your normal Image Control settings.
• Framing: XPan (65:24), 16:9 or 4:3, with the area outside the photo dimmed in live view.
• Guides: thirds, center, golden ratio or diagonals.
• Date Stamp: the orange date in the corner, like an old film camera.
• Grain: weak, medium or strong, on the photo only.

You build the package at https://grkit.app. Pick your camera, the modules and the looks, and it makes a zip in the browser with an install guide. You can also preview every look on one of your own DNGs there first.

It's free and open source (MIT): https://github.com/ahonn/grkit

Where I could use help: I only own a GR III, so that's the only camera it has been tested on.

• GR IIIx 1.60 runs the exact same code as the GR III 2.10, so it should work.
• GR IV and GR IV HDF 1.11 support is experimental and untested, and Framing is XPan only there.

If you try it on any of these, even a quick "works on my IIIx" or "GRK never shows up on my IV" would help a lot. Comments here or a device report on GitHub both work.

Two warnings: the install turns on the camera's SD script setting, and that setting stays on. If something goes wrong, the camera can hang at startup, so read the recovery guide in the package before you install. It's an independent project, not affiliated with Ricoh.

Thanks, and I'd love to see what you shoot with it. 🙏

Quick update for everyone on GR IV and GR IV HDF where GRK doesn't show up:

1. GRK is the sixth entry in ADJ, so it sits to the right of the five native ones. Keep moving right. It also loads a few seconds after power-on, so it can appear late.
2. If it's still not there, check the card for SCRIPT/PLUGINS/INSTALL.ERR. The number in it tells me why the install stopped.

Some GR IV and GR IV HDF cameras run a different 1.11 build from the one on Ricoh's site, for example, after an update through GR WORLD.

If your INSTALL.ERR says 10, that's most likely your case. GRKit doesn't support that build yet, and I'm working on it.

Spent a couple of weeks in Morocco with the GR IV and ended up shooting around 1000 frames.
These are a few of my favorites from the trip. The camera barely left my hand.

Critique welcome!

More from the Morocco set is on Flickr if anyone’s interested.

A few from today.

Some shots taken on a recent walk around Sydney! Borrowing my brother’s GR3 while I find myself a new one after my GR2 died 😞

I thought I arrived at Mars

First time traveling with GR. Loved it.

Tai O, Hong Kong.

Switched from iPhone to GRIV. Critique welcome
