RicohCookBook
RicohCookBook is a public directory of film recipes for the Ricoh GR: the JPEG settings people share so a small camera can look like a roll of Portra or a stack of Kodachrome. I built it and I run it. It launched with 80 free recipes and a gear catalog, prerenders a few hundred routes, saves settings cards for people to carry into the field, and sends a small newsletter to the people who signed up.
The frames on this page were shot on the GR with recipes from the site.
It is a real product with real numbers, which is the point: the same habits that make a data pipeline trustworthy make a website trustworthy.
