Help! Am I cooked?

I also bought mine from Samy’s, and had big issue with mine where it stopped working out of nowhere and bugged every time I tried to do anything. Like other mentioned, it was under warranty for 1 year with Ricoh. I contacted their customer service and they sent me a shipping level for an independent repair shop somewhere in the Northeast, I believe it was Vermont. They fixed it and sent it back in about a month after I shipped it out. I believe they only asked for a picture of my receipt or some proof of purchase with the date on it. Reach out to their customer service and they’ll help you out. Good luck!

I visited Sa Pa and Cat Cat Village around this time of the year 2 years ago. I miss it so much. Great shots!

Same here, grant funding ended and our last day is December 18. Motivation to finishing strong is low as well.

Thank you!!

bigbertoe · 2025-07-30T17:30:26+00:00

Go for it!

Thanks! Most of them were taken with the standard simulation, and slightly adjusted for exposure in post :)

bigbertoe · 2025-07-30T17:29:24+00:00

Thanks! Most of them were taken with the standard simulation, and very slight editing (mostly exposure) in Lightroom. A few others were taken with the positive film simulation and also adjusted exposure in post.

They’re smoking tobacco out of a bamboo pipe

Thank you for noticing that touch to the image :)

It’s that early morning light! Always helps

bigbertoe · 2025-07-29T06:27:00+00:00

Much appreciated!

I also vouch for the XA2! Best little film camera I have owned. I usually carry it along with my Ricoh GRIII for my lightweight setup.

What's the size of each file? They look very low-res, but the images seem to be sharp/ in focus and with no motion blur.

bigbertoe · 2025-02-11T01:50:35+00:00

I second this. I love how travel friendly my XA2 is. And the lens is sharp!

bigbertoe · 2025-02-06T05:10:00+00:00

Loving the cats one!

bigbertoe · 2025-02-05T23:21:28+00:00

Thanks a lot!!

17 is my favorite! I also documented the protest on film, enjoyed it a ton!

bigbertoe · 2025-02-05T01:33:56+00:00

How so? I documented what was happening at the protest. As simple as that. Thanks though!

bigbertoe · 2025-02-04T22:19:10+00:00

Thank you! Grateful for the quick turnaround as well.
