I purchased this camera in May of 2020, and realized most of the review videos were old and out-dated. There IS 24fps video at HD 1920x1080. The camera is also weather-sealed, and has updated AF eye focusing.

See the Photo Gallery from this shoot by clicking here I test the Ricoh GR III using the AE Highlight-Weighted mode while shooting an abandoned schoolhouse in rural Johnson County in Indiana. I use basic Program mode, along with the AE Highlight-Weighted mode, to keep the light from the windows blowing out. I had to make adjustments in Lightroom by pulling up the shadows, but the details and excellent sensor showed no deterioration in the details. While I wouldn't typically use the Ricoh GR III for this type of photography, it was a good test for the metering mode. I will be using this mode for my street photography, which is why I purchased this camera in February, before the lockdown, hopefully this summer when all goes back to normal! Whatever that is!

I test the Ricoh GR III for Long Exposure and Night Photography while shooting a Healthcare Providers Thank You sign and light trails of cars and a semi in Greenwood, Indiana during the Covid shutdown. The Ricoh GR III performed great! The manual settings are easy to adjust and dial in as needed. Sharp image quality and colors. You can check out the video by clicking the image above, or going to my YouTube Channel or my Stealth Photographer website.
Read more about this adventure in my blog entry from last week. The City of Greenwood, Indiana erected this lighted sign on a walkway bridge over one of the main streets heading into town as a tribute to healthcare workers during the Corona-virus shutdown.
Instead of breaking out my DSLR with prime lenses as I normally would in this situation, I decided to take my newly purchased Ricoh GR III, attached to my tripod for long exposure photography. Under normal circumstances with my DSLR, focusing would have been achieved in manual mode, aided by the eyepiece viewfinder. But with the Ricoh GR III, while it does have manual focus capability, it's not easily accessible, especially in low light situations. However ... My first outing with the Ricoh GR III was also the first of the new 2020 spring. The temperatures were in the mid-60s, and I couldn't help but take the opportunity to shoot some of the local farmland and wooded areas. Spring is just now breaking, so the leaves and flowers haven't bloomed yet, leaving trees still bare with the unappealing winter look. But the point of this trip was to find something, anything, that I could shoot with my GR III, and I wasn't disappointed. The old half-destroyed structure Not too far from my home in southern Johnson County, I found a half-destroyed brick structure. It's kind of a mix between a small home, or barn. Most of the interior has been destroyed by fire, but the appearance of relatively clean ladders tells me the owners are either about to tear the structure down, or renovate. Despite the No Trespassing signs, I made a quick circle around the structure.
