I just ordered this camera and I wanted to be prepared. Thanks for your great tips. And I totally agree upon the b&w photos being more interesting.

What a lovely approach to sharing your tech. Excellent video. And finally someone going into the details of how they set up their GRIII. 🙂

Np! Thanks for dropping by Matthew!

Can't wait for mine to arrive! Thanks for great tips-

Just got mine 2 days ago. This camera is a demon. Very good sharpness and iso performance. Very small as well

really helpful video! going to buy iiix soon. had no issue with the hands tbh. thanks!

what settings did you have dialled in for the shot at 3:51? I like how the dark areas are lifted slightly above pure black but the highlights are not overexposed. Is this achieved with the highlight/shadow contrast settings?

Splendid. Do you have a hard copy of your great settings (video is too fast for me to take notes...)?

My current favorite camera. Great video brother!

What would be the best low light setting for GRIIIX? Would you do a youtube video on it? Thanks.

Nice video, the vertical phone like grip is genius. Will definitely try it as someone who is more intimidated by street photography

Hi, what setting for highlight correction and shadow correction are you using in the jpeg recipe that you mentioned here?

Thank You 🙏🏼

Thanks, this was just what I was looking for! Just got a GR3 last week and been having a hard time adjusting to the settings and flow.

A very helpful video - thanks. I’m thinking of buying this camera, but undecided which version, probably the original 28mm equivalent, to give more latitude in depth of field??

@stefansender2634

GR III user here - I went for the 28mm because that was the length I believed I was more comfortable with. While it might sound like an overkill, I heard of people who went for both III and IIIx to avoid the dilemmas :-)

@@stefansender2634 - thanks, I’ve heard that too, but the attraction for me of the GR is its tiny form factor…. I don’t want 2 of them! :- ) I appreciate your reply - thanks.

I'm all for making colour work. It's similar to how some people like to blur backgrounds, because a blurred background is easier than forcing yourself to find a nice background that will work for the photo. It's the same with colour, you have to know how to work with colour, it's harder than getting a colour mess, or a b&w. But here's where I can really praise B&W photography is when B&W shows hidden shapes or changes accents, showing things we don't notice in real life

Couldn't agree more and B&W photography is a different beast but so rewarding seeing details that we'd normally miss in our everyday life

Hi Jchen. Great video! I saw you´ve been using GR III x for a while I was wondering if you had any heating issues. I just bought my GR III x this week and after 10/20 minutes of usage (setup some settings, taking some shots) it gets really warm on the grip. Is this normal on GR III x? Thanks a lot!

Thanks, very helpful video.This week I ordered my first Ricoh GRIII, but did not pay and pick it up yet at the webshop because I got a little bit flu. But now I am starting to doubt. A couple of days ago the price of the Ricoh GRIII went up with 70 euro and maybe I should wait for a Ricoh GR IV. Missing a flippy screen on the GRIII is a big thing for me. What do you think I should do? I saw some rumors of a GR IV coming in 2021(!) but that seems not reliable.

@zeneal

Every GR has its own character. There's still people who use the GRII and the OG GR. You'll love your III even if the IV comes out. Also these cameras hold their value pretty good so you'll always be able to sell it.

Also, the camera you hold is probably better than the camera you don't hold yet. I didn't even think about GR IV when I got my GR III and I don't regret it at all :-)

I'm really surpirsed by how much AWB compensation you dial in. What do you get at 0,0 on AWB? Is it too magenta or blue by default?

3:44 looks like the default auto white balance you might see in an EOS R or R5, is that why you chose it, by any chance? 😉
