Recent some flickr ask me about the trick on GR-D so I would like to share some of my experience on using this.
the basic setting of my GR-D
- customize image setting 1
- highest contrast
- highest sharpness
- highest color depth ( i think this also relate to the saturation of the photo )
many people ask about the post-production, actually i m quite lazy on this, n i m not good at photoshop so, all of my photo are using iPhoto 6 to manage. as the setting in the GR-D are already enough, so i will only increase the CONTRAST on some of the photo, to make the subject matter much sharp.
the mode I always use:
- P mode ( nearly all the time *daylight )
- AUTO iso ( range 64- 200) * over 200 will affect the color as i feel
- AUTO white balance ( actually always wrong )
- customize image setting 1
- MULTI AF ( favourable for MACRO )
- MULTI photometry ( easy to get some interesting light effect )
- M mode ( when i want to have long exposure * night time/ low light intensity)
- same as P mode setting
- f 2.4
- duration (2 sec -15 sec) * above 15 sec, the GR-D loading like a fool :P
many people ask about the COLOR of my photo, the main point isn't the post-production, or the customize setting ( but i prefer using the maximum ) But what i think is the SHUTTER SPEED. when you compare with two setting,
- f2.4, 1 sec , iso AUTO ( assume to be 200 )
- f2.4, 1/10 , iso 800
I can sure the one with 1 sec have better color result, as it accumulate more light instead of push up the iso. GR-D is a strange machine, the longer time exposure = vivid color.
e.g. www.flickr.com/photos/nacoki/267170208/
I found that when you using P mode, the slowest shutter speed is 1 sec, as it is quite enough for many situation BUT you need to have a STEADY HAND ( maybe you can use triport ) actually many of my photo are shooting at 1 sec.
理光GR拍摄设置经验、技巧大全
一、高对比黑白（森山模式）高对比黑白，必须用点测光。——来自：垃圾叔叔
1：设定 鲜艳度5 对比度5 鲜明度6 然后 白平衡 复合 B2G2 重点测光 效果完美——来自：垃圾叔叔
二、快门次数查看方法：关机状态下，按住播放键和方向键（下），就可以看到你的快门次数。
- SH 快门数
- ST 闪光灯数
今天发现理光一个小功能很好用菜单里的完全自动对焦，设置为开启后，快速按下快门，即可按照snap预设直接拍摄慢一点半按快门，照旧对焦——来自Reven
三、关于设置ISO100，自动变为ISO320的解决方法
把“动态范围补偿”设定为“关”（默认设置是“自动”），然后再回到感光度调节菜单，ISO设定多少就是多少，不会再变成320. 欢迎盖楼交流设置心得。
四、理光GRⅡ固件更新方法
- 首先下固件固件下载： http://www.ricoh-imaging.com.cn/ricoh/DownloadServlet?param=queryDetail&id=53
- 格式化SD卡（卡内资料请保存），然后将固件解压缩，放SD卡根目录
- 然后开机，按menu，选第三个设定，最后一个“确认固件版本”，然后选确定。 下载的文件解压后，放到sd卡根目录下，开机，打开菜单，检查固件版本，确认升级就可以了。完成后先别开机，先把sd卡上的固件文件删了，然后就好了
