I just got it 2 weeks ago as my first digital in a long time. Got gr2 I like it a lot as a companion to my film compact. I think if you want to just get the gr1 because it's cheaper. Snap focus is hilarious for street shooting even though I don't really do it. It's lightning fast. You can take a picture before anyone even realizes what's in your hand.

It's a great camera. Had mine for a year and a half before it shit the bed and died completely, Ricoh wanted $500 to fix it.

the 28mm equiv is a bit wide for my tastes but you get used to it

So I mean it takes great pictures but they are prone to faults

aperture wouldn't open when you turned the camera on, making me take a blank shot before it worked. that evolved into the lens being stuck in the out position, which eventually evolved into the camera refusing to operate at all, citing an error code of which there is no documentation anywhere.

I sent it to Ricoh and they said they would only replace the entire lens assembly instead of trying to diagnose the problem, to the tune of 500 australian shekels (aka more than I paid for the camera in the first place). Obviously I said no

Mine's served me well the past few years. It's worn out, the sensor is filthy, but it still snapps like I want it to. It's a great little camera, especially with a finder in the hot shoe.

Don't ever send the thing in for warranty sensor cleaning, especially not to Precision Camera. Don't ask why, just don't. Get a screw driver and a blower brush and do it yourself if you're feeling adventurous.

t. someone that never used a film camera and doesn't understand the value of being able to dial in settings with the camera turned off

The only thing about the Ricoh GR that is superior to the Fuji X70 is that the Ricoh lens is slightly better and the X70 doesn't have snapfocus.

The only reason to do this is if you have a handheld light meter or know sunny 16 like a pro. But not like it takes much longer to turn on a GR and get the settings in if not already set.

I've owned one since it came out.
It's a great camera will lots of custimizability.
But it's not a general purpose camera. It has a specialized application.

But I wouldn't buy again.
Mainly due to no viewfinder, low frame rate, and blackout after shots, and shit video.

Image quality is slightly better than my iPhone 5.

Hey, guys, what about fuji x70? Just received it. Wanted to get a compact point-and-shoot and firstly decided to buy ricoh, but it turned out, that it was not in stock in most shops, so i've chosen fuji with a decent discount. I'm shooting full auto, since I don't really understand the whole bunch of available settings. The problem is that in auto mode when there is not enough light the photos are blurry and as i see even my lg g4 takes better quality pictures. What am I doing wrong?

You're going to have to learn enough about the exposure triangle to be able to plug in good auto-ISO settings before it will really be a reliable point and shoot kind of camera for you.

Or just shoot in good light, and if it gets dark take advantage of the folding screen and set it down on things before you shoot. It's a very fun, versatile camera once you get the hang of it.

I own the GR, toyed with the X70 in a camera shop a few times. Also own a Fuji MILC but the GR is my favorite digital camera.

My pick is the GR because:
>Better lens
>Better ergonomics, perfect control layout for one hand operation
>Snap focus
>Touchscreen on the X70 didn't feel good to use in practice
>Black and white looks so good on the Ricoh
>Built in ND filter

The X70 does have a few things tho
>Much better colors with high iso
>Tilty screen
>Better OOC jpg's

I love it's convenience. You can customize it to a lot of shooting styles like street, or for me, low light shooting. The snap focus is brilliant for night shots since the focus is only fast in bright settings and shits out in indoor lighting, and good luck focusing in the dark.

Not SOOC.
But the Positive Film picture style coupled with correct white balance setting does produce some nice blues/reds and ok skin tones.

If i wanted to get a GR, should i get the GR II new for like $600 or the older models like the Digitals are enough but for a fraction of the price?

If you want a camera with touch screen, the GR is not for you. In fact it is opposite of what you want.

The GR has buttons and switches.
Lots of buttons, each one fully customizable so you never have to lose concentration and go digging in menus.

Much better processor, faster lens, and some sort of Image Stabilisation.

Hopefully never. the GR II got a hump for wi-fi which added bulk for a pretty useless feature, and a flip screen will only add more.

Bought a second hand GR two days ago as an addition to my dSLR. Wanted a big sensor that was easy to take with me when I leave the house. First impressions are positive. The controls are well thought out and very customizable, it's easy to use with one hand and the grip is good.

Performance is good too, it's fast and sharp. I really like the default B&W effect, I mostly shoot B&W + RAW. ISO performance is fine, I turned off the noise reduction, up to 3200 the noise isn't distracting.

I wouldn't buy one new in Europe, it's almost 700 euros here and that's too compared to the alternatives. I do have some issues with dust, but for now it's fairly minor and I'll try to ignore it.

Because it has a really good in camera B&W which after using a while learns you to see better, so people start to enjoy B&W more.

>>3137749
Ricoh colors are good SOOC and better with post processing.

The green tones are where most digishits fail(too much yellow) and blown out red channel (canon). GR has less of those.

I'd post some pics to compare 5D with GR but I'm phone and I've messed with the in camera color settings on both.

I'll wait until I can snag a decently priced used one off the German forums or something.

Meanwhile I've made my own.
Just needs some finishing touches, and a coat of paint.

And made a lens hood too so I can use a CPL.

In some cases it might not be a problem, but it depends on the purpose and the subject. I'm just giving my opinion, above 6400 the colors start to fade and the noise becomes an issue for me.

I don't disagree. Especially that 6400 and higher the colors start to go.

But this camera is a specialized camera.
If it was a DSLR maybe I would be bothered by the grain.

But for it's intended use (please, don't make me say the word), grain or not really makes no difference.
It doesn't distract or detract in any way.

Yeah, the Ricoh R1. It's fun albeit very plasticy. The AF is almost useless in low light, so be aware of that if you want to shoot indoors with it. If it can't find focus it focuses to 2.5m IIRC, so it works as sort of a crude snap focus.
