I believe in democracy and open-access. I like the idea that everyone can afford the same epic tools — and that our ability to make great artwork is more predicated on our own personal effort and ingenuity, instead of how rich we are.
This certainly happens in the field of photography this is why camera companies want you to be perpetually dissatisfied with your gear. As photographers, the camera we use is essential. Without a camera we cannot make visual artwork our photos.
Similar to what my friend Bellamy Hunt japancamerahunter. I generally try to seek faults in any technological tool. I played with it for a minute thanks Anthony and love it.

If you can live without an optical zoom -- and zoom with your feet -- this moderately-priced prosumer camera will let you take photos that DON'T look like they were taken with a phone. This means great low-light operation and bokeh when you want it; it has a neutral density filter so you can keep the lens more open. The internal, adjustable-intensity flash is wonderful for balancing backlit subjects against the background.
It has a fixed-focus mode, which is great for street scenes at night, when you want to disable the autofocus light, or shooting scenery at infinity. Note that you have to know something about photography to use it well.
Capture the Journey. Image Quality meets Connectivity. Building upon the legacy of the award-winning GR series, the GR II offers the perfect balance between exceptional image quality and outstanding portability. It boasts a high-performance wide-angle lens and The GR II comes equipped with built-in Wi-Fi and NFC functions for wireless connection with smartphones and tablets while offering complete remote shooting functionality.
The GR II provides a total of 17 effect modes, which allow the user to apply a variety of image processing within the camera to create the desired visual expression. High-quality, high-resolution image delivered by the GR This lens incorporates two high-precision aspherical optical elements and a high-refraction, lower-dispersion glass element to minimize distortions and chromatic aberration, while reproducing sharp, high-contrast images even at edges of the image field.
Thanks to its 9 blade iris diaphragm, the lens creates a truthful sense of depth and a natural bokeh effect, while allowing the user to capture beautiful light beams at closed-down apertures. The manually adjustable ND neutral density filter allows you to open the aperture up, even under bright sunshine, for a wider range of creative expression.
By reprogramming the AWB algorithm, it assures more precise white-balance control under artificial lighting such as fluorescent lights, while reducing the color bleeding of green hues in outdoor shooting. The GR II comes equipped with Wi-Fi functions for wireless connection with mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet computers. High-speed shooting operation to capture fast moving objects and fleeting photographic moments. Thanks to its increased buffer memory capacity, it continuously captures as many as 10 images in a single sequence during RAW-format shooting.
Including Clarity and Brilliance, six modes have been newly added to the selection, allowing the user to adjust some parameters to the desired level. During movie recording, the user can also adjust exposure compensation and use the AF button to activate the AF operation, whose speed is faster than before.
The OVF slots into the hot-shoe on top of the camera, allowing you to hold the camera up to your eye and instantly giving the GR II the feel of a single-lens reflex camera. The Dynamic Range Compensation mode records images with greater dynamic range. You can also choose to bracket this feature too. The electronic leveler is a neat feature that helps to ensure level shots while viewing through the LCD monitor, both in landscape and portrait mode. You can view the horizontal and vertical indicators on the LCD monitor to ensure that shots are aligned along each axis.
If you're using the external viewfinder, or can't see the LCD screen in very bright sunlight, then the camera can also be set to make a sound to indicate a level horizon. It doesn't sound like a big deal in theory, but in practice it really helps to make all those wide-angle shots perfectly level. The Depth of field indicator is an equally useful function. If you set the GR II to either Manual or Aperture priority mode, and the Focus mode to Snap, Manual or Infinity, a vertical scale on the left of the LCD screen indicates the depth-of-field at the current aperture, helping to ensure sharp focus when you're not relying on the camera's auto-focus system.
In addition to Bracketing exposure, white balance, effects, dynamic range correction, and contrast , Multiple Exposure and Interval Shooting modes, the Interval Composite mode takes a series of images at a fixed interval, then automatically combines the high-luminance pixel data from each images to create a single composite image, useful for quickly and accurately producing star trail images, for example.
Quite a lot of the camera's main options, such as image size, sharpness, metering mode and continuous mode, are accessed here, so the Shooting Settings menu has 30 options spread over 3 screens, the Key Custom Options menu has 27 options, and the Setup menu has 40 options. Due to the high-resolution LCD screen and restricting the number of on-screen choices to 10, the various options and icons are clear and legible.
Ricoh are well known for delivering responsive cameras, and the GR II certainly continues in that tradition. The start-up time from turning the Ricoh GR II on to being ready to take a photo is responsive at around 1 second. Focusing is very quick in good light, with a focusing speed of 0. The camera also happily achieves focus most of the time indoors or in low-light situations, and macro focusing speed is pretty fast too at 0.
It takes about 0. In the fastest Continuous mode the camera takes 4 frames per second for an unlimited number of images at the highest JPEG image quality, which is very good for this class of camera. Using the Subject Tracking AF mode, while the shutter-release button is pressed the GR II takes a series of photos and adjusts its focus on the subject at the same time using the external autofocus system, which proves very useful for quick-moving subjects.
Once you have captured a photo, the GR II has a good range of options when it comes to playing, reviewing and managing your images. You can instantly scroll through the images that you have taken, view thumbnails 81 onscreen at once! Level Compensation allows you to correct the contrast and tone of an image after it has been taken, White Balance Compensation the white balance, and Color Moire Compensation usefully removes any artificial color banding.
The Skew Correction function alters any photo that was taken at an angle so it appears as if it were taken directly in front of you. There's even in-camera RAW Development, with 9 different parameters available. Images are automatically rotated during playback to fit the current orientation of the camera. Pushing the Adjust dial instantly displays the image at a previously defined magnification, handy for quickly checking focus.
The White Saturation display mode during image playback indicates over-exposed highlights by flashing those areas on and off. When taking a photo, pressing the Display button toggles between the detailed information, the histogram and gridlines to aid composition. All of the sample images in this review were taken using the 16 megapixel Fine JPEG setting, which gives an average image size of around 6Mb.
ISO only shows a little noise, while the fastest settings of ISO and are quite a lot noisier but still retain saturation and fine detail, making them perfectly usable for small prints and resizing for web use. The Ricoh GR II handled chromatic aberrations very well with limited purple fringing effects appearing only in high contrast situations. The 16 megapixel images were just a little soft straight out of the camera at the default sharpen setting of Normal and either require some further sharpening in an application like Adobe Photoshop, or you should increase the in-camera sharpening level.
The Dynamic Range mode works well, resulting in images that have noticeably more dynamic range that those shot in the Normal mode. The night photograph was excellent, with the maximum shutter speed of seconds and the Bulb mode allowing you to capture enough light for most situations.
Macro performance is OK, allowing you to focus as close as 10cm away from the subject. The built-in flash worked well indoors, with no red-eye and adequate overall exposure. The right-hand image has had some sharpening applied in Photoshop.
The out-of-the camera images are a little soft at the default sharpening setting of Normal. You can change the in-camera sharpening level to one of the preset levels if you don't like the default look. The Ricoh GR II handled chromatic aberrations excellently during the review, with very limited purple fringing present around the edges of objects in certain high-contrast situations. The Ricoh GR II offers a Macro setting that allows you to focus on a subject that is 10cm away from the camera when the lens is set to wide-angle.
The first image shows how close you can get to the subject in this case a compact flash card. These shots of a white coloured wall were taken at a distance of 1. And here are some portrait shots. As you can see, neither the Flash On or the Red-eye-Reduction settings caused any red-eye.
The Ricoh GR II's maximum shutter speed is seconds, which is excellent news if you're seriously interested in night photography, and there's also a Bulb setting for even longer exposures. The shot below was taken using a shutter speed of 15 seconds at ISO Here is an example which was shot with Off and then the three modes Weak, Medium and Strong. The thumbnails below link to the full-sized versions, which have not been altered in any way.
This is a sample movie at the quality setting of x at 30 frames per second. Please note that this 21 second movie is It's hard to get excited about a new camera that principally only adds wi-fi and NFC connectivity to its predecessor. Still, the original Ricoh GR was an excellent camera in its own right, so while we wouldn't suggest at all that owners of that camera should rush out to upgrade, the Ricoh GR II remains an attractive proposition if you're looking for a responsive, full-featured, understated and pocketable camera that delivers outstanding still images.
There's almost no noise from the base sensitivity of ISO all the way up to , with the higher settings of , 12, and even to a lesser extent 25, all perfectly usable for smaller prints - very impressive for any 1. The tack-sharp 28mm lens and the on-trend absence of an optical low-pass filter both improve the image quality further, with the option of the ubiquitous Adobe DNG RAW format if you want to take control, complete with in-camera RAW processing.
The Ricoh GR II excels in the customisability department, with three function buttons, three My shooting modes and other customisable controls making this a camera that you truly can setup to suit your way of working, although it does take a while to work out what the best combinations are. So although the Ricoh GR II is only a tiny step forward for the GR-series, feeling more like a stop-gap product rather than a fully-fledged new camera, its undeniably still a pleasure to shoot with, and importantly there are still very few direct competitors in the market.
If the prospect of a small and discrete camera with a fixed 28mm lens and APS-C sensor sets your pulse racing, then despite its lack of technological progress, the Ricoh GR II is still well worth considering. We just hope that Ricoh up the ante for the next model The Nikon Coolpix A is a new pocket camera for professionals.
