Introducing the Analog Collection of Recipes!

My Christmas gift to you is The Analog Collection! These six new JPEG Recipes are for the Ricoh GR III and GR IIIx cameras, and will produce results that are reminiscent of analog film.

In late-summer I began working on a new Recipe Collection for the GR and GR II, but not very far along in the process my camera stopped working. I was really bummed out about this, but sometimes that’s the reality of using older gear. I really wanted to add more Recipes for the GR and GR II before returning to the GR III and GR IIIx, but circumstances prevented that from happening. So I pivoted, and in October began working on Recipes for the newer models.

A month later, Reggie Ballesteros contacted me and asked if I’d like to include his new Recipe, called Reggie’s Color Negative, in the Ricoh Recipes App. His timing was perfect! You can learn more about this Recipe in his YouTube video below:

I tried out Reggie’s Color Negative Recipe and really loved the results. He recommends using a 10% CineBloom filter with it; however, I did not use a diffusion filter with my photographs. It’s a real honor to include Reggie Ballesteros‘ Recipe on this website and in the App! I know that you’re going to love it.

There are four other Recipes in the collection, plus a bonus Recipe that’s only available in the App for Patron subscribers. Becoming a Ricoh Recipes App Patron unlocks the best App experience, plus includes access to a bonus Recipe from each Collection. The four Recipes (in addition to Reggie’s Color Negative) that are free to everyone are Positive Film, EktaColor, Vibrant Nostalgia, and B&W Film. The bonus App Patron Recipe is Kodak Summer.

Below are examples of each of these six new Recipes:
