What I find special with your presentation is that you have many KEY phrases, some of which I note down to help me reflect on your content, brilliant, thank you.
One of the most useful street photography guides I've ever seen. I'll be mulling this over for a while until I next get a chance to go out roaming. Thanks!
Know your camera, know your settings and most importantly of all know your subject matter so as be on ready as opposed to during those immediate moments you're fiddling around with how to hold your camera and set it up.
Tip 5 has kind of been my way since taking up photography almost 4 years ago, but in a way that I'm doing milkyway nightscapes, landscape, wildlife, sport, street and night street so I'm not bogged down in 1 field and all the while I'm continually learning
Rule #2 really made a lot of sense and never thought of it that way. I, also, remember my first time taking a picture of a stranger and you got excited like you got away stealing a pack of gum XD. Will keep that tip in mind. These are amazing videos and good refreshers.
This one was really good. Love it. I'll also appreciate if you come up with similar video for high contrast bnw photography. Also how to find lights and using it right 🙏🏼
Once again, such great tips and wonderful treasures here. I simply love the way you walk the streets, LOL! What really stood out to me was how "normalcy comes with time", and how it begins to feel normal after doing it for a while. I wrestle with a personal sense of self-consciousness about carrying around my walk-around kit and about taking photos that I enjoy in street photography, and I get into my own head a lot. I especially loved the advice of being able to explain what I'm doing and why (even to the subject), and how easy it is to simply let them know how interesting they are, which is one of the reasons why I love this genre of documenting life. Wonderful tips! (1) How do you stay inspired when you're in a place that's not so inspiring, or a place that has become very common/normal? (2) I loved the idea about using projects to help develop and discover your vision and purpose in photography. I have found that the myriad of options can be overwhelming to decide. What were some themes that helped you focus in the beginning? Thanks.
love that last tip! Street photography is a hobby I'm taking up, but music, literature, and art greatly influence my every day life and thus, my photography. They all accentuate each other and it's so satisfying to see everything come together
good tips 👍 simple concepts that are easy to understand and things that are good to be reminded of even if you've been doing street photography for a while
Great videos, really enjoy watching them. Can you give some advice on the dust issue on the GR’s? I have my gr iii for six months. Before I bought it I read that dust can get on the sensor easily so I decided to buy the lens adapter with a filter. Because the adapter adds bulk to the camera I’d rather not use it but am afraid to get dust on the sensor. Is the dust thing exaggerated or real?
If you look around you will see lots of people attracted to the Ricoh GR as a camera to have on them every day - in fact, I see this more than I do the street photographer interest. It fills a niche that is unmatched in its pocketability so why not some tutorials that deal with those of your buyers who are buying this as the 'I always have it with me' camera? Show what it can do away from the street! I think it would be really helpful to have some tutorials where you talk about settings for particular scenes. Not street, but other kinds - family, wedding, landscape, low light etc. I would like to know how to do better with low light people shots for example, not street, still very much in the Ricoh GR toolbox.
@@EYExplore I may be incorrect, but @M L might be talking about general low light indoor( family, wedding etc. ) or low light ( with motion involved, i.e requiring faster Shutter) . Also landscape.
@@rohitghosh7319 Yes, I got the other ones, wedding/event make sense, and of course landscape is a thing. We did do a video recently about long exposure cityscapes. I would say low light events and such are not different from street photography at night, which I do a lot of. I would the same settings and techniques. Although, portraiture sounds like a fun and interesting genre to tackle with the GR! :)
@@EYExplore I suppose you could frame it that way. I appreciate the difference may be subtle, but I am wondering where the tutorials are for those of us with a GR as an everyday carry first, the street being secondary. To capture our kids, our friends, the landscapes around us. I may be very wrong, but I see many, many people talking about owning a GR on forums and in reviews as just that - as a point/shoot, the best camera to have in your pocket. I think there are many more people who might consider a GR if every tutorial wasn't on street photography but a little more people-centric. BTW, this is obviously directed at the channel, rather than you @EYExplore. I did watch your video on night cityscape photography, thanks for making it.
@@maclagor totally makes sense!! I think the plan is to show the versatility of the camera a bit more. We had a brainstorming session the other day so actually ideas like this are very helpful!

Just keep doing more of this, great content 👍
I just thought of him as a GTA 5 NPC Character, that interacts with you a lot and now I can not unsee him as that.
Haha.... Hey cousin... Let's go bowl-I mean... let's go do some street photography. :)
@@EYExplore ahahahhaha
Well now I can't unsee it thank you

I love that!! I've refined my thoughts over years of leading workshops. :)
Rick from walking dead is now teaching street photography in Japan.
Hahah, lots of people in Japan say I look like Rick. :)
@@EYExplore Wear a police uniform next Halloween?
@@akisasaki6661 I thought about it last year!! :)

I love learning how to shoot from Andrei Arlovski. What a guy.
I love MMA! Maybe Arlovski influenced my appearance subconsciously haha. :)
Very inconspicuous outfit for stealthy photography ;-)
I like when the see me coming haha. :)

I enjoyed this. Your points are well taken by this beginner and you present them quite well. I look forward to watching your other videos.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much Lukasz!!
Very valuable advice beyond the usual tech. talk!
Very nice channel. Inspiring and educative!! Thank you very much for your content. Best regards from Mallorca, Spain!!
Lukas! How in the hell did I miss you now shoot GR3 instead of Nikon with your 40mm focal?! Just WTF? Greetz from PL :-)
Witam! :) It's because I shoot with both!! :)
Rule #2 really made a lot of sense and never thought of it that way. I, also, remember my first time taking a picture of a stranger and you got excited like you got away stealing a pack of gum XD. Will keep that tip in mind. These are amazing videos and good refreshers.
Hehe, love the analogy!! :)
Awesome! Thank you
"Don't be afraid!"
>Shoots in Japan.
That's not fair. Japanese are way different than others. But nice video and photos!
I've shot in other countries too! :)
These Lukasz videos are great!
Thanks!! :)

Excellent stuff.
Good to see you well and still making great photos. Thanks for the tips!
Thank you!! :)

I believe the GR III has a sensor cleaning function so it should be fine! :)
Like your videos a lot. Wanna grab one of these for myself. Wear a mask in public tho!
Hi Lucas
I enjoyed your video on the tips they were very helpful!!
I'm curious why you use the GR 2 and havent upgraded to the GR 3?
Best wishes
Duane
Well, luckily Ricoh sent me a GR3 so I'll definitely be using that in the next video! :)
But anyways your work really tought me much about photography. Thank you for that!

Regarding low light people shots, do mean portraits? With a model?

Fantastic
Awesome video, subscribed.
Awesome, thank you!
nice vid. can u make a vid about ur GR settings (Focus etc.) plz
We have those! :)
Snap focus: ua-cam.com/video/Q32iPJL_5AQ/v-deo.html
Exposure: ua-cam.com/video/FuvePJzaShw/v-deo.html
Amazing 🙏
Thank you 🙌
1st
yes and now what?
Good tips, thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks appreciate the vid, a quick question why you shooting such high iso?
Because I set my minimum shutter speed to 1/250. Sometimes it's not needed, but I like to freeze the action and avoid motion blur.
69
the "I need a person now" feels very artificial imo. I feel like the content lacks substance when using that mentality.
