  1. Nice 👍🏻.
    I just got back last week from a 4 day trip to Tokyo, my first time.😊 Tired after a 3 week trip to the US, and a bit in shock at the amount of people – had to visit Shibuya, walked for 5 hours taking pictures. Then the obvious places as a tourist, Ginza, up the tower, Akihabara where I played with the GR but I don't think it's better than my tiny M4/3rds for my needs.
    Lots of "souvenir" shots, but also some that I'm very happy with 😊. I'll be back for a longer trip very soon 👍🏻.

  2. I’ve always wanted to visit Tokyo. Great photos, I appreciate the captions as it gives insight to your thought process at the time.

  3. I sure hope you’re not doing some secret event with Ricoh to promote the gr4 because I just bought the gr3! Great video

  4. I'm always intrigued by the way your 3 exposure parameters continuously change from picture to picture. Shows I'm not a "real" photographer as I almost never change anything on my LX7. Mind you, I find that iA is cleverer than I am. 😊 I like your presets. They tend to be much more vibrant than most others who promote theirs. I don't have LR. Do have an old version of PS but never use it. Photoscape may be super basic but is good for small tweaks.

  5. Amazing video again, never stop. Inspiring me to shoot for the whole summer. I got videos coming myself. You're to blame. You also maybe my favourite photographer.

  6. J’arrive dans quelques semaines à Tokyo avec mon épouse et nous allons pouvoir tester nos GRIII and GRIII X durant notre séjour. Nous allons essayer d’appliquer quelques unes de tes techniques sur place (nous n’avons pas encore vraiment essayer de les utiliser malgré le fait que nous les ayons acheter il y a plusieurs mois de cela).

  7. Great video as always Adrien – very relaxing! Was wondering if you crop much. I know you’re using the 28mm equivalent lens, but looks a bit tighter sometimes.

  8. Hey Adrien, your visuals are always so calming and pleasing to the eyes. I wanted you to know that you've rekindled my love for photography.

    I purchased a GR3 about 3 years ago but it's only recently that I have started to stretch its capabilities. I always thought the pictures out of it were too wide for my taste and like yourself, I was considering getting something a bit tighter. your video "RICOH GRIII To Improve In Photography" could not have appeared at a better time for me. Something finally clicked for me and now I take the GR3 every time I leave the house now, even for mundane stuff like grocery shopping.

    All the best,
    Tom

  9. I love your videos man, just wondering whether these photos are straight from the camera or edited? I want to upgrade my gear but I'm not sure about that yet

  10. The final shot with the skytree is so good, you can see the stars even with all that light :0
    Did you use a tripod for the video shots? They don't move at all!
    Amazing work as always, Adrien 👏👏👏

  11. You're getting good at the "drive-by shootings" which the Ricoh seems perfect for.. walking past people and shooting them without them realising

  12. Keep this up! Love the little comments and tips over the video to better understand the thought process and the shot.

  13. I loved having a new video from Ricoh, this focus mode does everything automatically and you just press the button with the distance settings that the camera creates? A video about the details of this operation and with examples of how you execute them and how the camera reacts would be great
    Thank you !❤

  14. beautiful work! I celebrated my 18th birthday in tokyo and now I'm 32… brings back lovely memories <3

  15. Just found out about your channel few minutes ago, already a fan. I am a beginner at photography and videos like this really inspire me. Keep it up! 🙂

  16. Love this video and perspective – in particular how you are documenting your journey. Can you share your setup with the go pro and how you capture yourself on the go taking the photos

  17. Ah man I miss Tokyo. Pick an area, walk around all day breaking for meals and rest, capturing clips and photos all the while. Next day, pick a different area, repeat.

  18. I want to be able to use the snap priority mode mode, but I keep predicting the wrong distances. I've been trying to practice, but do you have any tips? do you still mess up the distance often?

  19. I really love the way how you shooting,not only these photos,but also the video which is very slow-paced. It makes me feel peaceful deeply!

  20. I really love your work Adrien! Always a source of inspiration! What process do you use to work on your pictures? Do you shoot RAW? What software do you use? Thank you for your videos 🙂

  21. Also, I just clicked on your portfolio link and I got a certificate error… Accepting the warning message, the site seems to be down.

  22. Good camera but it has a nasty bug that won't allow you to write to your card after a day passes. Can't even do in camera edits anymore because it too.

  23. Hi, Adrien. What GoPro mounts are you using? Is it a shoulder clip, a chest strap thing, or…?

  24. I’ve been in Tokyo for a month now and golden hour right before sunset is a photographer’s dream. So many nice shots and lighting.
