Camera-Specific Tips

- The Ricoh GR III has a customizable ADJ lever, allowing you to quickly access your favorite settings like exposure compensation or white balance. This can speed up your workflow significantly in manual mode.
- Activate the Highlight Alert in the Playback menu to see overexposed areas in your photos. This helps you adjust your settings to avoid blown-out highlights, especially useful in high-contrast scenes.
