Took the new Ricoh GR III HDF out yesterday, but really didn’t shoot much. Love the form factor, definitely small enough to keep in a pocket, it turns on damn fast too which is a good thing, but as I expected, it’s not magical by any means (despite seeing magical photos being taken with it online, but I assume they’ve been heavily edited vs straight out raws).

Whenever I was in any of my previous cars and a performance car would pull up next to me at the lights I’d always wish I was in my GT-R instead. Same goes for this camera I think, in that if there ever was a shot to take I’d wish I had my A7 IV with trust 35mm 1.4 instead.

To be fair I’ve yet to set up personal program modes on it though, but even as is, it does the job of a small camera I can take out at all times.

Ricoh GR III HDF

Ricoh GR III HDF.

I’ve been wanting to buy a small camera I can fit into the back pocket of my jersey for taking out whilst cycling. For months I’ve been on the waiting list for a Ricoh GR IIIx. I spotted one on eBay but as I clicked on buy now the listing literally disappeared! I kinda gave up after a while but a couple of days ago I thought I’d go on the hunt again and I found this Ricoh GR III HDF on eBay being sold by a local seller, but shipped from Hong Kong. It cost me more than the RRP, but considering there are none in stock in any of the local camera shops I decided to pull the trigger on it.

Not expecting much from it, but have seen people on the Ricoh GR subreddit produce amazing shots. Looking forward to shooting with it this weekend!

Sony FE 85mm F1.8

Morning light on the rooftop.

As a photographer I’m far from being a gear head. I’ve literally never used anything but my trusty f/1.4 FE Zeiss Distagon lens since I bought it new in 2015 but I’ve been struggling to take bike shots with my 35mm 1.4 (not enough separation and even focus on the bike vs the background).

I found a professional photographer on a bike forum who shoots for a cycling magazine and he uses a 70-200MM F2.8 zoom lens. I googled the price, and holy shitballs, $3,699.00 and the thing is fucking huge! He then suggested an 80mm prime and Sony makes an FE 85mm F1.8 for $700 so I pounced on it.

It’s a whole new world for me as I’ve got to stand really far away from my subject, but I think it’s great and that it’ll do the job just fine!
