Ricoh GR III Snap Focus Hits and Misses | Tutorial

In my last video I said, on the record, that I am not a run and gunner anymore. No drive-by street photography. Then I found snap focus.

So today I am doing run and gun in my old stomping grounds of Arlington, Virginia, with the camera that is forcing me to learn the metric system. Lift it, snap it, it is in focus. Supposedly. What is 2.5 meters in feet? I do not know these things, so yes, there will be out of focus shots, and I am showing them anyway, because this channel shows the learning process, not just the highlight reel.

I keep almost calling it the RG III. As a Washington Redskins fan, RG III means something else entirely around here.

This phase, all focus and no composition, is not my favorite. But the people are interesting, and the exercise is the point.
