Ricoh GRD1 advice

[NZed]

Hey guys! Newbie and first time poster here!

So I'm looking around for a nice compact camera that's not so expensive an give the film feeling.

The GRD1 seems to be in that range.
I've manage to find one for 150 dollars very lightly used. Is that a good price?

And if anybody else got any recommendations, I'm all for it!

Thanks!

I would advise getting it. The GRD1 still carries a strong reputation of having the most film-like grain (noise) in its jpegs of all the GRDs. I think it will at some point be a collectible.
I have the GRD iv and I used to have a GRD ii. Both great cameras.

For straight b/w jpg it's still the go-to-camera.
And the files are impressively sharp, considering the (in todays terms) low resolution.
