- My sort of comparison of using two of the most hyped up APS-C compact cameras of the past few years, Ricoh GRIII Street Edition and the Fujifilm X100V with a bunch of samples. Get comfortable and enjoy the show. Thank you!

Great informative video. What are your views on the x70? Do you still use it? I have one on the way.
Thank you! I think it's still a great camera, highly underappreciated even by Fuji themselves. I had to sell mine to fund some other stuff at the time. But if they'd make a x80 (or whatever) I might even consider switching to it from the GR. Hope you'll enjoy it!
@@Alex_SMK cheers Alex. I ordered it when my GR1 suffered catastrophic failure 😞. That’s what puts me off getting another one. I do miss it though. An x80 would be awesome though. Keep up the good work brother 👍🏿
Great video! Definitely appreciate the in-depth comparisons with a nice even pace. Gave me enough time to look and evaluate without having to constantly pause the video. I’m thinking it’s about time I pick up a Ricoh and see how I get on with some street photography. Might be a bit self conscious and out of my comfort zone and the size would be perfect.
Glad it was helpful! Both of these cameras are great. I would suggest picking up the one that inspires you the most, can't go wrong this way. Thank you for watching!
I was many times in Ukraine and recognized some places on your photos. I even took a similar photo at the exact same spot in Comfort Town with my friend walking on those "zebras" 😊
Great video 👍
Слава Украине 🇺🇦
That's cool! Thank you for watching!
Героям Слава!
NICE
Thank you!
Is there any rumors on a gr iv soon? Gr 3 is like 5 years old now ? Very good comparision btw , i so want to like the GR but u wish it had atleast a evf you could put on the hot shoe and the Fiji is alot newer and nicer design . Last thing should mather but i shoot with ugly ff dsrls so it would be nice to have a better looking camera as a Carry on camera
Thank you. I, personally, think GR4 or whatever it's gonna be called won't come till 2025, now that Ricoh announced the HDF models. Which, yeah, is kind of old-ish by our conditioned beliefs that the new model should come every year or two. Of course, fingers crossed for the new one to arrive earlier, but hey, let them cook it right, you know, I'm in no rush.
Seems like the Fuji - is a safer bet for you now. At least you don't have to worry that the new model is going to be released soon, and they are in high demand. Of course, if you can get one for a reasonable price.
What is your opinion on using raw photos on both cameras at high ISO? Do you see any type of advantage over either of the two?
Being technical, let me put it this way: The X100V and now the VI have the edge over GRIII and GRIIIx at high ISO (I'm talking about everything that's higher than 3200 and in terms of noise only), hence the older sensor tech in the GRIII. I'd say it's like the X100F with the IBIS (if there was one at that time). But again, this is really rough and subjective comparison because the lens is stupid sharp on the GR, and no X-trans pattern adds to the mix. I personally like to work with DNGs more than with RAFs for now. If I ever come back to JPG only, I'll give it to Fuji for sure. All depends on how you shoot and what you need.
Could the difference in sharpness be due to the adapter on x100v?
Could be of course, because we're adding additional elements in front of the optical scheme of the X100V's lens. But generally speaking, the 28mm lens on GRIII is probably one of the sharpest lenses I've used on the compact cameras. Not like it makes any crazy difference in the daily use, though.
Thanks for watching!
I have a similar question after watching the video and I think the answer is "yes"
Дякую за відео ❤
Будь ласка! Дякую за перегляд!
How can you compare 2 cameras with totally different shots ?
The comparison with the same shots starts at 6:03. Mind you, taking the same shot on the streets with two cameras at the same time is kind of challenging on its own to begin with. Thanks for watching
So, you sold your Fuji, does it mean you prefer the Ricoh GR ?
Yep, it worked out for me so far
@@Alex_SMK I just sold the X100V, too. In my case, that had more to do with it offering very little (for my particular style of photography!) over my X-T5 coupled with an xf 27 or XF 18. The Ricoh is kind of calling me, though. I just don't like the 1000€ price tag which kind of undermines the spirit of just throwing it into my pockets as an EDC.
Yeah, I can relate. As for the prices - true. They got crazier for these compacts over the past few years, that's for sure...
Great video! Please don’t talk in the dark like that anymore. It’s crazy confusing and icky. Otherwise great shots and info!
Noted! Thanks for watching and the feedback, appreciate it
