I was able to use 28mm on most of these shots but on the closer ones I used an adapter by walking way to attach the gt-2 1.5 lens conversion and used it on 35mm or 50mm crop mode to avoid the vignetting. I usually shoot these in my Leica m6 on film or my Sony but have been utilizing the small nature of this camera to remain low key in the city and ended up using only this camera in this shoot. Still blown away by this little thing.

I find myself in an airport once again

Canada vs Morocco, Round of 16 at NRG Stadium in Houston. Full house, 68,777. FIFA’s camera policy meant no interchangeable lens cameras, point and shoots only, so the GR IV went from backup to only option.

Honestly it ended up being the right constraint. You give up the pitch action entirely at 28mm, so you stop pretending to be a sports photographer and start working the concourse, the flag ceremonies, the fan kits, the pyro. Snap focus handled the crowd shots without hunting, and it disappears in your hand so nobody stiffens up when you raise it.

If you’re headed to a World Cup match and wondering what camera clears security, this is your answer.

Hey everyone,

​The Ricoh GR is my absolute favorite travel camera. It’s perfectly pocketable, and the High-Contrast B&W simulation is just unmatched for street photography and architecture.

​But we all know its biggest pain point: no articulating screen. Taking a selfie or getting those low-angle shots without lying on the ground is basically a guessing game, and the official accessories are a bit too expensive for what they are.

​To fix this, I put together a cheap DIY alternative using an M5Stack module. It works flawlessly as a remote shutter!

⚠️ Important Note: This firmware currently ONLY supports the Ricoh GR IV series. It does not support the GR III at the moment, and it is unfortunately impossible to implement on the GR II.

​The best part? You need zero hardware or coding experience to make one. It takes about 3 minutes to set up.

​Here is the quick guide:

1. ​Get the hardware: Pick up a cheap M5Stack StickS3 module online and grab a USB cable.
2. ​Get the tool: Download the official M5Burner software to your computer. 3.​Flash the firmware: Search for my firmware [Insert your firmware name here] in the software, connect your device, and hit "Burn".
3. ​Pair it: Go to your GR's [Wireless Communication] -> [Pairing] -> [Execute Pairing] and it will connect automatically.

​That's it! Now you can easily trigger the shutter while keeping the camera at any awkward angle.

​For the tinkerers (Completely Open Source): If you want to dive into the source code, modify it, or add new features, you can find the whole project here:

​Let me know if you guys end up trying it out or if you run into any issues. Happy to help in the comments!

no edits, open to suggestions!

Some sooc snaps from the past month in South Korea. Trying different recipes.
Having a lot of fun with it!

A few shots from my recent trip to Cornwall.

Shot in jpeg using positive film recipe and a few tweaks in post using lightroom mobile.

I enjoy shooting this camera a lot! I set the U3 for monochorme to be able to change between color and bw fast. I like the bw profile, it allows work flow with only mobile phone edits.

Not the most original post of the week but I am so happy with this thing.

I use it especially for friends/canind everyday life, but I’ve tried printing some pics and the results were more than enough. This summer I’ll be travelling and I plan to bring just the gr and my main (film) camera, we’ll see

Old but feels good looking

One of the hottest weekends in 2 decades and I sweat like a pig taking these photos. Well worth it in my opinion although my results are flawed but I had so much fun. I think I'm finally finding my style and it isn't always the prettiest, most well composed or sharpest. I also find it hilarious that seemingly half the population has a gaudy shirt that is fashioned to look like they are wearing a cheap American flag. Probably my favorite thing to photograph. Along with all of that, I finally decided to start asking people if they would pose for a photo for me and it worked magically a few times. I will continue to try that method more in the future.

Ricoh GR3X - RAW + LR'ed

Visited the Brooklyn Botanic Garden when I was in New York, found this one when going through all my pictures from the trip, turned out pretty nice after some cropping and editing :)
