Thanks for your funny upload here :-D For me this thumb tool is useless too. The viewfinder is the most rediculess toy - expensive...and in my eyes absolutely useless. I have got a 2nd battery in the Street Edition bundle - which I never used. In that bundle I have got 2 lens rings and I LOVE the orange one (a matter of taste....). The bundle came also with the Ricoh case - which I use for storing ony. The standard wrist strap - which is perfect for me. Do not see any need for any other one. You have not mentioned another stupid accessory: the converter. That converter might produce a good image quality, but it ruins the concept of GRIII being a pocketable camera. But I have bought two accessories which I use and like: to protect the screen I have glued on a bulletproof glas (not a foil!). You do not see it and the touch screen works perfectly! And I also use a glass in front of the camera for dust protection. Works find - probably one do not need that. Sorry for my bad English and greetings from Germany 🙂

Very helpful thank you so mich

ow no the viewfinder, you crazy

I'm purchasing, my only fears is dirty sensor, that why I'm thinkng about the filter adapte, but probaly using correctly the cap is enough

The thump grip I need, I have arthritis, it helps

Damn! An actually honest review of the ricoh accessories. Still gon' buy the lens cap though!

Weather sealing 😊 More MP would be nice. Don’t care about evf, flash or tilting screen on it.

Such peace. Your Maverick, how do you like.

Great video btw, I just bought the JJC AR GR3x adapter, it's really cool, made of aluminum, and put a CPL filter there. Do you know if there's a case for the camera with space for the filter adapter on? Thanks!

hahaha you made me laugh a lot, I don't know how many videos about accessories I've seen, I even made a list on Amazon... but I totally agree that not all of them are necessary, they make you believe that you need it (regarding the view finder, I have big doubts since I use glasses), anyway, I don't have the camera yet, thanks for the video

install 2-3 inches of heat shrink tubing to the wrist strap on the camera side to make the loop smaller. less likely to slip off. only real upgrade needed i think.

I use a GRiii, and I keep the lens adaptor tube permanently attached with a filter on the end to keep dust out of the lens mechanism. It increases the bulk, but I've had such issues with internal dust on fixed-lens cameras that I'll take the hit.

And the Oscar for Best Short Film goes to...😊

Kids get off my lawn!

Masterpiece. Ha. Love it. Natie Light. Perfect.

You changed gangs on us. Sony

I only have the screen protector, two spare batteries and a lens protector from JJC. So I spend about 40 euros in accessories. I put the camera in my pocket or in a regular belt bag.

I use the GR IIIx daily for professional work. I’m a tour guide who takes photos of my clients outdoors, often in the shade. I have the Godox 350p flash mounted permanently on my camera. It’s perfect, although a little bit bigger than the camera. I carry it on me all day in something like a padded, weather/proof money belt around my waist. Perfect accessories, don’t need anything else!

I didn’t know we can do slog3. I thought it’s only slog2

I got the screen protector, a strap that I can adjust so it doesn’t feel so dingy, and the JJC lens cap. All you need honestly. That viewfinder is the biggest rip off I’ve ever seen lol, I was floored when I saw the price.

Man, I was thinking about the JJC thumb grip. You talked me out of it. Thanks boss

How did this not win an Oscar? Or at least a Hasty Pudding?

The only thing i have on my GR3x is the JCC UV Filter, thats it. Its sticks onto the front of the plactic parts of the lens keeping the camera pocketable,

This is a bit of a party pooper video 😅 i agree with some of your dislikes (thumb rest, hot shoe ovf, stiff wrist straps) but disagree with others. 1. Spare battery & charger: when you are visiting a city or the countryside or whatever for a full day, it is not that obvious to charge your camera on the go. You need a cable, a charger, a wall outlet and time. If you stop for a bite or drinks somewhere and the facility gives you access to their wall outlet (does not happen that frequently at all), would you leave the camera charging in plain sight out of your reach (or even out of your view)? Also carrying your own cable and charger is infinitely more cumbersome than carrying a spare Ricoh battery. And who likes worrying all the time about shutting off camera, restricting chimping, avoiding connection to phone, etc, to make that small Ricoh battery last through the day and possibly the evening? I always carry 1 spare battery, sometimes 2, and travel with a mini JJC charger that can charge 3 Ricoh batteries simultaneously: I never have to leave my camera attached to an outlet unattended... Last point on this: the cover of the GRIII's USB-C port is fiddly and flimsy. It begs to tear off at some point. Also, I'd prefer frying a charger rather than the camera if I charge through a faulty cable or wall outlet charger. I only charge through the camera occasionnaly. 2. Belt bag: I often use the small discreet Ricoh "dad bag" (as you call it) attached on my belt depending on my day's outfit to avoid bathing the GR in pocket lint. When I see how my phone charger port gets clogged with crap, I can only imagine what could reach the GR sensor and/or messn up with the lens extension mechanism. Of course I prefer using shirt, jacket or trouser pockets, but they need to be as lint free as humanly possible. Some fabrics (cotton, wool, etc) just shed fluff forever. 3. SD Card: very nice to have 2Gb emergency storage on board, but that is not nearly enough to intentionally forego a card.

I have the biggest problem. Have you had any problems when colorizing with 8 bits? I see that they make too much drama with 8 bits on this camera. Does it affect it?

If you don’t need a second battery you’re not out to shoot enough (case in point, if you don’t even need an SD card you’re definitely not out shooting enough to use a second battery). I’ve had days where I burned through 3 batteries. Also, the viewfinder is super handy for composing on very bright days and some just love the experience. A must have accessory: screen protector. Having the GR in my pockets means risking scratches on the LCD.

The colored ring is something you buy after the original black ring mysteriously vanishes, which is almost sure to happen sooner or later. And they don't sell replacement rings in black. After I lost the original black ring from my GR II, I used it for a while without a ring, and it worked Just Fine, but it nagged at me. I finally bought a red ring for it, and it somehow improved my feelings toward the camera greatly, despite having no actual function as such.

“…or some scientific sh*t like that.” The comment that made me subscribe. Love your style. Lol

Love your style, man. Great video. Thanks. I'm ashamed to admit that I have TWO spare batteries for my GRIII. I kind of feel a bit silly now 🤦‍♂

Love the honesty!

I agree on the leather strap being too stiff. I used some leather balm and it softened mine significantly.

A separate power bank could be useful to charge the battery on the go (i.e. during a break) or use it to charge any other device, like a phone.

''It's perfect for vlogging, probably. I don't vlog''. I really like that. You made my day. 😀👍

Love x-pro 2. Probably best x-pro.

Natural Light 😳… the camera and lens 👍 Your videos are always entertaining!

It says right on the jug… you’re supposed to use ALL of the laundry detergent.

That 50 F2 is magic. Like *really* magic

Viewfinder and your punch lens! And a beer 🍻

The only accessory I suggest is the black metallic GR lens cap. Just a little protection against dust while in the pocket. That’s it though. I use my peak design disc/wrist strap and I’m good.

Amazing, What lens are using?

I find the battery life abysmal for long street shoots(just bought my used Ricoh GRiii Street Edition) so I bought a second battery (plus the $17 JJC charger) and am thinking to restore settings from what the previous user had as the battery just drains. I like the control with the thumbgrip but it dose tickle the upper thigh a bit in the pocket. Not much else needed if anything. Also shoot the Peak Design wrist strap because I had it...could be slimmer but I'm getting used to it. Definttely a sweet little camera.

HA WOW you put a lot of creative humor into this!!! THE FUNNIEST Casio review I have ever seen!!!!! (funniest Casio commercial too)

Thanks, just confirming that it's zv1 mark 1 not the latest one? Thanks

Crap, I bought 4 spare batteries cos of all the reviews that said the battery was it's biggest weakness. Lol. Granted, they are the cheap ones from ebay

The “One Guy” Burger…. Two burgers at a fifth of the price of one “Five Guys” burger🤣 Good stuff Mr Tardif 🙏🏼 #Get2Shavin💪🏼 I need you to go sell everything you own, buy & try the Atelier Durdan Maurice DE (made in France). #thousand$shave🤦🏻‍♂️ Also, have you ever tried the Blutt Rasur (Swiss Made). I have the 0.99 and WOW! I hear the 0.86 is even smoother, but I can’t see how!

Hi Greg I enjoyed your short film and appreciate the effort you put in to keep us entertained. I have one question what powder did you sprinkle int the water with the onions. I live in the top end of Australia and we tend to use only fire to cook our meat and the onions are nearly always fried in oil. Not being much of a cook I am curious and keen to broaden my burger cooking horizons. Cheers,

Good test for the camera. Well done! I’m embarrassed to say I cook my burgers in the air fryer! I liked the look of the Blackland adjustable razor that appeared and then disappeared on your channel yesterday. I’m guessing sneak previews were a no-no. Cheers. 👍🪒 PS I watched the YT video “Wisconsin Foodie - Pete's Hamburgers”, which shows them cooking burgers exactly the way you did. Might be worth a try…

I’m not used to adding water. Cool take! I’ll have to try it; looks tasty!
