Ricoh A Handful of GRIIIx Hard Monotone

[agentlossing]

The talk of Pentax K3 III Monochrome, as well as developing and scanning some more B&W film (which was rather disappointing, my method with Rodinal didn't suit Kentmere 400 very well, especially in lighting where the LC-A was consistently picking a wide, and therefore soft, aperture value) got me hankering to shoot some B&W on the GRIIIx. I decided to do something I've been thinking about: taking out the SD card and shooting to fill the built-in memory, much like shooting a roll of film (you can usually get about 40 RAW files on the GRIII/x). I didn't quite fill it in a day's shooting, given that I was also commuting and working, but I liked some of the results anyway.

Great series Andrew.

And a creative way to limit yourself to a film like experience.

Thank you, Craig! Appreciate it.

Some great stuff in there Andrew. The GR does produce really nice B&W photos. Who needs a monochrome camera anyway, eh?
