GR1

[Genster]

I still have a number of analogue Ricoh cameras in the attic. I don't know exactly where, but this afternoon I have found the most important and most used one.
I'm trying to buy a new battery (CR2) this week and then I can see if it still works (I still have 2 pieces of Fomapan 100 - 135 in the fridge).
I wonder if it still works. To be continued...

Oh no nobody likes my old GR?
I know, he's old and analog. But isn't he cute?

The style is there where it began. Great to see a line of continuity in design and simplicity

So true

In any case, it turns on. Too bad it will stay so wet and gruesome for at least another week...

The GR1 was a superb camera and I also owned one and loved it, a small camera with great lens (if I remember correctly, Ricoh were also making some lenses for Leica in this era).

I haven't used it for years, but now there's another film in it.
And yes, I also remember the good quality of the lens
