For Sale: OT: Ricoh GR1s Camera

Posted on
  • OK my wife no has two of these, amongst others cameras!!, and wants to sell on, they are great compact film cameras, some of the best, but she is the expert and better at writing so she tells it like this:
    "Immaculate condition, in perfect working order. One of the best 35mm film compact cameras ever made. Remarkably sharp and Powerful Fixed 28mm f/2.8. Offers a wealth of controls and features, Exposure compensation +/- 2EV, Aperture Priority Mode, AF,Shutter speeds of 2-500s or Bulb . Shirt pocket sized and very light.
    It comes in box, with a manual, carrying case and lens hood. "
    £200
    This pic is the model and colour but not the actual one....

  • Really nice. Benn after an analog GR for a while now, but hey, 200 quid??

  • lush ......had exact same one sold last year for £165 but miss it badly !

  • I'll buy for £120.

  • OK when she is up she can tall more about it but here is a pic of the actual one, as mentioned comes with box, manual, lens hood, case etc....

  • These are super awesome cameras.

  • I Picked up my GR-1V (model up from the S) for £120 - but that was seven years ago, when film was still in wide use. £200 isn't a bad price now. They are amazing cameras.

  • Yeah i dont think its unreasonable as she bought a GR1V earlier in the year for 250 and another 2 years ago for $600 they come on pretty rarely, also as said this is boxed and with lens hood etc, manual (did I mention the lens hood?)

  • OK so had a look and here is one based in Hong Kong so shipping is not cheap and its at £227 with 7 bids and a day or so to go:

  • Having owned one I would agree it's a decent price for a great camera - you get the odd bargain where they're between 160 and 180 but for the most part you're looking at 200+

    As soon as you get to the 200+ price bracket I would maybe go for the Contax T2 instead for the manual functions and lens quality but at 200 someone should snap this up!

  • Price drop to 185.00....

  • More Pictures..... Still think its a deal there is one here on US Ebay thats on 300 dollars with time to go and then shipping.... Anyway more pictures:
