The original film GR1 is on my bucket list

definitely a great camera, the in-camera black and white mode is the closest thing you're gonna get digitally to a tri-x film look. I regret selling mine ages ago.

I’m using the sigma vf-11 and it also works well.

I use the Ricoh viewfinder with my GRIIIx. A very expensive piece of plastic. Good to see there are other options.

I bought one that is labelled for the 21mm version, and when i put my eye up to it, the picture matches the viewfinder image, but it also works very nicely with the 28mm field of view. I don't see any framelines tho. At the same time, it has the rubber ring built into the viewfinder, so maybe they updated the design after this video came out?

Yes. I love my original GR. But as a Fuji shooter, how can I make the colors warmer. ??

Does it scratch up your glasses? I've had the happen with metal viewfinders..

No, thankfully. There's a rubber ring around the back (the one that I mentioned comes off easily if rubbed against something, like in a tight pocket). So haven't had any scratching issues.

Great camera, but too many options for me, and I could never get the focus to work when I set it for street photography, those specific zones would never be in focus. And honestly, I need to look through the lens, I don't like the lcd for framing, especially here in Arizona, too sunny.

You need to be at f/8 for it to work.

I like that the flash is almost as big as the entire camera, haha

is it safety/ compatible sofar that you use viewfinder TT artisan to your ricoh??

the GRII is one of my favorite digital cameras ever... being able to easily shoot one handed is just great! The only complaint i have about the GR series is that the ISO Noise is kinda bad... anything over ISO 800 really quickly falls apart

GRII has 16 Mpx sensor. I guess this is same sensor with sony nex camera series Nex5N, 5R, C3... DXO mark rate iso 1100. It's better than 60D,70D, ...

How you set exposure / ISO / shutter speed / aperture? You need at least info display inside of VF (like in DSLRs)

Interesting. Any diopter needed?

This viewfinder does not have grid lines right?

Correct, no grid lines

contax made 21mm equviv to pair with their 21mm 2.8 for contax g

Trying to find info on the magnification on the 28mm vf. Do you know? And also if the ratio is more 4:3 than 3:2. So it seems with Ricohs own viewfinders.

@snappiness

I'm not sure what the magnification is. The ratio is more 3:2. I just recently picked up the GV-1 from Ricoh and it is much nicer - bright, nice frame lines, just way more expensive obviously. This is a nice upgrade though from the cheap plastic ones and I think makes a good budget option. Hope that helps.

Are there 50mm viewfinder? I don't like digital viewfinders in modern small cameras.

The existence of the 21mm finder makes me wish the Sony ZV-1f was a camera that was remotely worth getting. If they had RAW support like most of Sony’s large sensor compacts, the digital zoom rocker was customizable, and there was phase and not just contrast AF, it’d be tempting. There isn’t any other compact with a lens as wide, and while IQ wouldn’t match a Ricoh GR, 1” sensors aren’t unusable and it’s also half the price. Sticking a cold shoe viewfinder on like the TTA 21mm would be a nifty little kit. Alas, Sony hobbled it for photography.

I just wish the transferring from camera to phone to be better.

Hi, In your opinion, is 21mm or 28mm suitable for Ricoh GR 3?

Are there internal frame lines or any parallax correction mechanisms???

I really dont use the viewfinder that i have for my ricoh griii

I think it destroys the main strengths of these cameras: ease of carry, pocketability and how quickly they can be whipped out and ready to go.

Is there a version for the Rico GR IIIx

Does that not aim very slightly too high?

Does it come with cold shoe mount also?

Does the viewfinder zoom in and out along with the lens?

No, it's completely manual and not coupled with the lens.

Ricoh GR vs Sony a5100?

So it’s a 28mm viewfinder equivalent?

Yes. they have a 21mm option as well. No 40mm option as of yet.

Actually a lot of smartphones have 1 inch sensor

Well there's those old viewfinders from the film days still around.

it's fixed. If you want to see focus, you need a rangefinder camera.

What's the point of the viewfinder if it doesn't help you see what the lens is seeing. Dumb waste of 40 dollars

Maybe do your homework on how large an APS - C sensor is.
