Ricoh GR-D (I,II,III,IV): Post your photos!

[matthewm]

Y'all keep getting good colors and tones out of the camera. I am easily confused by what I see on the LCD vs the finished product.

For me, the OOC colors aren't anything to write home about. I know a lot of people love the black and white straight out of camera, but I can't seem to grasp the right blend of settings to get usable JPEGS without some tweaking, color correction, etc. The images look very 'digital' to me, if that makes sense.

Sometimes I like the results in certain situations, but when things go wrong they seem to really go wrong. I really just need to spend more time developing my LR skills. The camera is great. I have it with me more than any other camera I've ever owned. I just need to work at pulling more out of it.

Great set, kuvvy. I especially like the perspective on the second one. Well-seen!

It took me a few months of really tinkering with the cameras and exploring post processing options before I could really grasp exactly how to handle the images from my Ricoh. I'm now on my second GRDIII after having sold the first and I'm hanging on to it for dear life. 🙂

That camera's black and white mode is really great. Handled the highlights and shadows equally well. Awesome shot, too. It definitely is all you need. Well, that and a camera... 🙂

@dogbunny and @OlliL: What are these things? They look kind of gnarly.

 

[OlliL]

They're called stag beetles.
Pretty uncommon and rarely to be seen, at least here.

I won't touch them, but I'm not into bugs and spider anyway 😉

Whenever I think about replacing my GRD with something a bit more advanced this thread just reminds me what is possible with a modestly sized sensor and a 28mm effective lens. A couple from recent adventures...

😀 I'm in Japan at the moment. Little boys keep them as pets here, but the one I shot was walking down the sidewalk. They are good subjects to shoot because they barely move.

 

[OlliL]

Sounds like an interesting hobby. 😉

Yes they walk pretty slow, but when they fly.... 😀

Btw. My dog did check it out, too.
