I bought it here in NYC at B&H Photo. Unfortunately, it's listed as "no longer available". You may find one on Ebay? I do remember it was pretty expensive.

Oh, thank you so much. What a lovely compliment! Be well.

Hi Allen. A difficult question. As you can see, this is a very old video. I'm no longer using this device. One thing to keep in mind is that this unit needs a stereo signal, consisting of one PU on one side, and the other on the other. Not sure how the PUs are routed on your guitar, but it's unlikely that you have that setup in place on a jazz guitar. Have you considered plugging into a regular amp with your magnetic PUs and routing the contact PU to an acoustic amp or PA? In that case, the Mixpro would not add anything valuable, you could blend your signals simply by adjusting the volume on your two amps. If you insist on getting your two signals "mixed" before they reach the amp, you'd have to get an adapter of some sort that routs two mono inputs into one stereo output. Then it might work, but there's also a chance that the magnetic PUs are too hot for successful blending. There's only trial and error, I'm afraid. Good luck!

The word "basically" does a lot of heavy lifting in your statement, because there is a difference. Zone focussing only works in manual mode, which means that you'd have to waste time switching back to AF if you want that option.

That's very nice of you!

Glad you found gear that works for you. I fail to see how you'd ever have to clean the sensor on this Ricoh. It's NEVER exposed to dust. As for the lens, some basic hygiene with a blow ball has served me well for years. You never touch or handle the lens, so fingerprints or smudges never happen. You'd have to take this thing to the beach if you wanted to create some real problems. Have a nice day!

You actually took the time to write that.

Its pretty good i reckon, voice is really good

@@Patrick-yc3tf Not tried those cards but they typically use their own app to transfer files and just look like a normal SD card to the camera so I don't see why not. I had Eye-Fi years ago but they long since closed so problem might be getting software that runs on more recent computers/phones. Eye-Fi was coincidentally purchased by Ricoh but closed 4 years ago. Good luck.

Oh dear, so am I, to be honest. It's been a long time ... good luck!

Good luck. If I'm not mistaken, you're about to blend two different PUs, which might not be as good as including a mic. I do have a guitar with a Lyric built in, and though I hardly use it amplified, it sounds as good as a PU can, I guess. So I'm hoping you'll be happy with the results.

​@@JohannesLabusch, the lyric is a mic mounted to the bridge plate. It has it's own preamp in the jack assembly. But also has solder connection for a passive pickup to go straight through, no preamp.

I'm sorry, I don't.

Oh, that's so nice to hear. Thank you very much for your kind words. I am an American citizen now, but only have been for a few months. Grew up in Germany and lived in Switzerland for most of my life. If you ask me, you can't go wrong with a Ricoh, even though the current model is a bit more expensive than the GRii was. Have you considered Fujifilm? Probably my favorite brand for the last few years.

That's very nice of you! It would help if I made more videos ... (-:

I was never interested in the gr iii. I found the price unreasonable. Maybe this helps: www.dpreview.com/forums/post/40692967

Hi there, thanks for your nice words! It really depends what your video needs are. If you want to shoot professional video with tons of editing capabilities, obviously this is not going to be your camera of choice. That said, every digital camera with basic video functions blows everything out of the water that you used to be able to find in dedicated video cameras a few years ago. So, if it's family stuff you want to shoot, the Ricoh will be more than enough. Big Head Taco did a very informative KZbin vid on shooting video with the Ricoh. Here it is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHymlZuug8h9hqM One thing you need to keep in mind is that the GRii does not have a view finder. You need to be able to work with the back screen. If that doesn't give you enough visual information to feel like you now what you're doing, I would recommend a camera in the same price range with an electronic view finder, such as the Fujifilm X-T20 or maybe one of those little SONYs. Enjoy!

@@JohannesLabusch Johannes Labusch, thank you for spending the time in answering my question and for recomending two alternatives cameras and for recommending 'Big Head Taco's' Video, which i found useful.

Thank you so much! I haven't made any in a long time. This is encouraging.

I would need more information about your specific setup. Try using the headphone out of your interface.

I see what you mean, but hey, I would like to avoid dust in any situation if possible.

Yeah, you know, I never figured out how to assign my own thumbnails. It's possible that you only get to do that upward of a certain number of subscribers/views. This video is already three years old, and I haven't continued making them. The thumbnail, ironically, is a shot from one of the videos I'm making fun of here ...

To be honest, I've hardly ever used it for video. I think in times when your iPhone gives you amazing video, the air is getting pretty thin in that area anyway. I once took some black and white video with the Ricoh, and it looked crisp and rich in contrast. Since the camera is so tiny, it's a great choice for off-the-cuff video reporting. It doesn't do 4K of course, and it's limited to 30fps, so not exactly your semi-pro video camera. Oh, and no flippy screen, so no convenient vlogging either.

@@JohannesLabusch alright, thanks sir!

Andriansyah Lesner I ordered it from B&H (bandh .com)

@@JohannesLabusch thank you!
