  • Using the Canon 400D/Rebel XTi for Street Photography - POV
    Before returning my dad's Canon 400D I decided to go out one more time and shoot a Street Photography POV. I got some gorgeous morning light and some tasty images. Enjoy!

    One of the appealing things about the 400D is its simplicity. The shooting experience (no live view etc) is a bit like what people are looking for when they return to shooting film.

    I’m just getting into photography and I’ve been messing around with my parents’ old 400D and they let me keep it. This inspired me a lot to save money and work with what I have, thank you and great shots!

    • @DavidFlowerOfficial
      @DavidFlowerOfficial  2 роки тому +3

      That's great to hear. My advice would be to put the money you saved into a nice lens like the 50mm 1.8 so you can get nice shots at night too👍
      Thanks very much for watching 🖖😁

    • @DavidFlowerOfficial
      @DavidFlowerOfficial  2 роки тому +2

      That's not a lens I've ever used though I suspect it'll be fine as a longer zoom option. The only lens I have in a similar range is the Sigma 70-300mm. Thanks for watching 🖖

    You can shoot in b&w and sepia in the settings and there are options to use different built filter settings, ie red, orange, blue and yellow. These will enhance your pics without carrying around filters. Great work 👏

    • @DavidFlowerOfficial
      @DavidFlowerOfficial  2 роки тому +3

      Oh I always prefer to shoot raw and apply effects in post, that way I have the most flexibility no matter what I choose to do with the images. Only filters I ever use are polarisers unless I'm doing long exposures. Thanks for watching 🖖

    100%....great point about not needing the latest and greatest camera. Loved the daytime look around David. I think my fav shot of the whole video was the gentleman with the cane crossing the road at 5:28. It was almost like he stopped, or slowed down real quick for you to take the shot. Personally, I think I like the nighttime street photos better but I like the daylight look around with the videos. Either way, keep em coming! Hope you are doing well and having a great week!

    • @DavidFlowerOfficial
      @DavidFlowerOfficial  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks, Paul. I love the night shoots and I've got a few more coming, but I wasn't sure how this would hold up at night with a max aperture of f3.5 and a max iso of 1600😂
      Take care out there, mate👍

      Really appreciate that. I've just finished editing a new video for Wednesday using just the 400d and a 50mm and it was a ton of fun.

    • @mtstans

      For sure. Looks like you have some others I'm going to check out too. I've been getting out of shape as I have gotten older, so been hitting the trails and taking the camera to speed up time more instead of walking just "to exercise". Been working on keeping my lens fully open at 2.8 and adjusting shutter speed and iso as needed to get the shots I'm aiming for. Also starting to learn when I need another lens with more reach to sneak up on random animals as I encounter them. They hard to get with a macro lens. They kept running away from me when trying to sneak on them. The one thing great with all of the new gear coming out is that you can still get good quality EF lenses for very affordable prices now. I got my eye on an Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM for under 1000 bucks I'm going to try to pick up to use for getting those animals I missed and also for shooting football. This camera old as heck, but still was able to get some shots I'm proud of. Keep it rockin!

    i really enjoyed watching your video but it makes me more confused because i used to take photos with phone and i love photography and this will be the first cam i will buy despite the small amount of money i have that allows me to buy the canon 400d or nikon d90 (or canon 500d maybe) ; so what should i choose ?

    • @DavidFlowerOfficial
      @DavidFlowerOfficial  Місяць тому +1

      It doesn’t matter which you choose. They’re comparable cameras and both systems have an amazing lens selection.

    Hello, I liked your video, it is impressive to see that with an old camera you can still take very good photos, I would like to get started in this world, my budget is limited, do you think that the xt 350d is a good option or is it worth saving a little? more money and get the xti 400d?

    • @DavidFlowerOfficial
      @DavidFlowerOfficial  10 місяців тому +1

      It’s less about the camera and more about your ability and lens choice. Across my channel I have used all kinds of cameras and made them work, but that’s mostly because of 15 years of experience.
      The 350 isn’t much different to the 400d so I expect the image capabilities would be very similar.
      I think the 350d and a little work developing your skills will be perfect to get you started. These cameras are a lot of fun but very basic so be patient.
      Thanks for watching 🖖

      No, the 400d has no video. I'm not 100% sure, but I think the 500d was the first of these rebels to shoot video at 1080p. Thanks for watching 🖖

      Absolutely, it's very basic with no fancy features, but it takes gorgeous stills and will give you more flexibility than a phone. As a bonus, the 400d is very inexpensive!
