This is a recipe for a Ricoh GR III that I use every day. This started as Reggie’s recipe but, with minor changes over time, evolved into a completely different recipe.

This is based on a positive film base simulation. This recipe isn’t aiming to reproduce any particular film but rather serves as a good base for everyday use.

I also encourage everyone to shoot film if you can! :)

Manik’s Color Positive Recipe

• Film Simulation: Positive Film

This recipe can potentially be reproduced on older Ricoh GR cameras if they support a positive film simulation.
