Warm Spring Evening is a new film simulation for the Ricoh gr iii and gr iiix which features the rich gold colors of the setting sun and the cool blues of the early evening light. The recipe is available on my website for free.

Summer Bleach Film is a new film simulation I developed for the Ricoh GR III and GR IIIx. It uses the Bleach Bypass picture profile and adds a healthy dose of saturation and contrast. The recipe is free on my website.

I've developed a new film simulation for the Ricoh GR III and GR IIIx called Candy Color 400. This one uses the Positive Film picture profile as a base and applies high saturation and a color shift towards magenta.

Turquoise Film 200 uses Ricoh’s Negative Film picture profile as a foundation and adds some saturation, contrast, and clarity. The white balance is set to K5000 to cool the colors.

I was determined to create a recipe using the built in Cross-Process picture profile as a base. I’ve never been fond of Cross-Process but I thought I would give it a try anyway. I adjusted the picture profile to the magenta setting, made a few tweaks to the contrast and shading, and then took my Ricoh out on the streets of Athens, Greece.

This week I developed a film simulation for the Ricoh GR III and GR IIIx. I used the new Negative Film picture profile Ricoh just released with Firmware 1.7 and tweaked it slightly. I input a custom white balance, added some saturation, and shifted the colors towards the warm magentas. I’ve entitled this recipe Negative Film Gold.

A few days ago, Ricoh released their new Negative Film picture profile for the Ricoh GR III. This film simulation is a welcome companion to Ricoh’s already popular Positive Film profile. The best news of all is that Negative Film is free to all existing GR III users. All you need to do to get the new picture profile is install the latest firmware (version 1.7).

I created a new film recipe for the Ricoh gr iii and griiix called Cotton Color 400. The intent of this simulation is to give the photographer a “default” film recipe that can be used in a wide variety of lighting conditions. Cotton Color 400 features slightly muted colors, low-to-mid contrast, and bright highlights. Kodak’s Portra 400 provided some inspiration for the color palette.

Indigo Film 800 is built on Ricoh’s pre-installed Retro picture profile and adds a strong dose of saturation and sharpness. The final recipe features a slight white balance shift towards the cooler colors, slightly favoring the blues and magentas. If you don’t know how to input a film recipe into your Ricoh GR III or GR IIIx.
