Photowalk 26.09 – “Griddy Griddy” Edition

I wanted to try out the Ricoh GRDII with some snapmode settings and some monochrome settings aswell and just fired away as I made my way through the train and subway stations.
This is just another one of my photowalk blogposts sometimes I find interesting words to put under the photos but mostly its just the photos that speak and its either pretty random or follows a theme.

Photowalk 13.07.2010

Got me a new Ricoh GR Digital II recently and since I need to figure this camera out now I took it on a photowalk. I know that there is a GR Digital III out already but I didnt want to spend too much anyway and the GRD II is perfect for a on the go snappy camera, who wants to lug around the big DSLR all the time anyway?

Alright here are some pics, shoutout to Stefan who came along shooting with his Canon G11 that he bought in Tokyo when we were hanging out in Akihabara.

I was shooting mostly in black and white since I heard that this camera has cool b/w settings so I tried to play around with it a little but here is a color shot, one of the few so far.

There is also a Kaiten Sushi called Kamon (the ones that run on a conveyor belt) right next to it, actually it all belongs together so either you are up for a nice coffee and a snack or some good sake and sushi.

Stüssy x Ricoh in Ginza Tokyo

On a nice sunny day in Tokyo I decided to hit up the Stüssy x Ricoh gallery at the Ricoh Ring in Ginza.
Whats nice about Ginza on a Saturday (or was it Sunday not sure anymore) is that they block off the main streets for cars so people have more space to walk around while checking out all the stores.

Also a camera team was out and eager to find people for an interview about something, I guess fashion lol but who knows, it would fit the whole Ginza scene though.

I managed to take some pictures from inside the gallery.

Well all together the gallery was nice and it made me think about getting myself one of those Ricoh GR Digitals ;). I like their quality and how easy and compact they are I need something like that as my backup on the go camera though (depening on the lense) the 550D is not too heavy to carry around too but doesnt quite fit into my pockets ;). Afterwards we went to Shimokitazawa and checked out some other thingys but more on that in given time in another blogpost.
