These videos are so much better than the gear junkie blah blah black stuff. Shows a guy in action, shows the photos, some technique, lots of inspiration. Well, done.
Haha, awesome!! Thank you so much!! :)
Agreed
Haha! At 6:07 I was crying out “Look, look!” And I’m glad you did!
Same here!
Haha, I love it! Axel, from behind the camera, was also telling me to look! Glad everyone had my back haha. :)
Seems like a simple yet very effective way to get some great photos but I suspect it's more tricky in practice. Thanks for showing us the way it should be done.
It is very tricky! I tried it again recently and failed miserably haha. :)
Thank you! Great place to shoot! I like the moment on 8:55, when somebody in the background make a photo :D
Haha, yeah everybody is out shooting here. :)
It almost makes you jealous. more people come to one intersection than in my city in an entire week. 😂 nice video, Lukasz the crouching tiger.
Haha, and this was not a busy day at all. As you can see in my old photos, it can get really crowded here. :)
Wish my city was bigger 🤤
Thank you for this video! Great inspiration. Good technical hints !!
Thank you!!
Very much enjoyed the video. I like the high contrast style.
Beside of that, I’m happy that someone is actually using the Z6 / Z6 II in the field. Sometimes I have the feeling that, since Nikon’s autofocus system is only 90% of Canon and Sony right now, that everybody is switching gear.
I was only torn between Fuji XPro3 and Nikon Z6 II the last couple of weeks, but pulled the trigger on the Nikon yesterday. Your review video was also very helpful in this regard. Thank you
Thanks! I've heard people complain about Sony and Canon. Honestly, I bet there is really not a significant difference in general use. It's like Coke vs. Pepsi. Sure, you will differences in rigorous test, but when you are just out shooting (especially street) good technique is more important.
I always look forward to your videos. I cannot wait to travel to Japan again and take more of your photo tours!
Thank you so much!! I'm really looking forward to doing workshops again!!
nice pics, I shoot a lot of high contrast and often use spot metering and that works really well most of the time
Thanks! Spot works as well, but I find it tricky to always get the spot where I want it in a chaotic, changing scene like this.
@@EYExplore yeah it can be tricky, I might give your technique a try and see how that works out for me. Thanks again for the video content
Very informative as always!
Glad to hear that!! :)
What I noticed watching tons of your videos, is that the the people in Tokyo's streets seem as they couldn't care less about your presence Lukasz. There is a tall westerner kneeling in the intersection and everybody passing by just doesn't care at all - no weird looks or confusion - nothing. That would NEVER happen in the West. I think that is a huge benefit of doing street in Japan. It seems as if it really is "the cloak of invisibility" you mentioned before. Wish I could be that stealthy in Europe! Haha..
I think there is some truth to that. But I find it also has to do with just... doing it and not worrying about what people think. If you look like you belong there, people care less. But I do admit, people are more used to seeing bozos like me taking pictures all over town so they care even less, haha. :)
Glad to see some 40mm Ulton pix.
Happy to oblige!! :)
6:24 sold me on the whole premise of the video. Thanks for enduring the heat. 😅
Agreed, great tutorial, we don't all have the neon lights of Tokyo or NY but we all have a sunny day from time to time in the street. I have not preserved the highlights well enough in the past.
Thanks!! Glad I could get a winner during the shoot. Sometimes we shoot the video and I don't get the results I'm hoping for. The streets can be fickle. :)
Thanks
Thanks for watching! :)
Great idea to try when ever we can go out and take photography (in Canada) :) Thanks again!
My pleasure! Thanks for watching! :)
Lukasz, would you ever make a video some time down the line doing street photography in another country? Like street photography in London, NY, Chicago, Barcelona some place like that?
Sure, could do!! It would have to a different style though as it's unlikely I'll have Axel with me to shoot it. :)
@@EYExplore I think that would be really interesting, if you were ever abroad and had the chance to do that
Dziękuję, zmotywowałeś mnie do wyjścia z domu :)
Ciesze się!! :)
Great video. I wish you'd come to Taipei to do some street here.
I would love to some day! It's been an idea to visit Taiwan for years! :)
Thanks for all this information gold. Noticed, I was making a huge mistake in general with a manual lens by setting the f stops on the lens to 2.8-5.6 etc while also using the dial. Your explanation of using f22 on lens and using the dial to set to f11 etc set off a light bulb moment lol I am slowly getting better. :)
Our pleasure! Yeah, you need lock those older lenses that have aperture rings on f/22 if you want to use the dials on the camera! :)
@@EYExplore thanks so much lol I have been exploring the vintage lenses on modern digital cameras. Great way to get quality primes cheap. You have great content and eye for photography.
@@spartanshawn Thank you so much! :)
like before watch!
Hehe :)
Saw a guy there once, with a huge tele lens, and his back towards the mirrors. Suppose he got some nice ones too, as you did.
Yeah telephoto works very well here. I'm a stubborn short prime user, but I can see myself fishing here with my 70-200mm. :)
Nicely done- what were your auto AF settings? Auto-area AF?... wide-area AF (L-people)..... biggest challenge for me is figuring out which one is best to use when I am out shooting- your shots looked spot. thanks
Manual lens + zone focus. I explained the technique in the video. :)
Did you activate D-Lighing?
I never use it. I keep this off at all times. It's just post-processing so I can do this later at home since I'm shooting raw.
Man I’ve seen several different ways to shoot at the place . I really wish I could go there while there’s not a lot of people to just work that scene for likely upwards of at least a day . Idk if I’ve seen shots from there at night , now it’s making me wonder how the mirrors look like at night 🤔
There are so many great shots. I'll do another video on just the mirrors. :)
@@EYExplore 🙌
I used to shoot like this all the time but got bored of doing same thing after a while.
Sure, it gets old. I don't do it often, but I'm happy to share. This is a spot I regularly visit on our workshops and it's always a winner with clients. :)
Why use an old tech lens on a $2000 body?
Eh? It's not a cheap old-tech lens. This is a modern lens with CPU and metering and modern glass (produced around 2010). It costs around 500 bucks, so not expensive but not exactly cheap either. But more than that, what's wrong with using a specialty lens (old or new)? It's not like old lenses aren't sharp or don't produce great images. This particular 40mm has wonderful character, extreme sharpness, and it's a joy to use in manual focus, which has some advantages of autofocus, especially in street photography.
@@EYExplore it neuters an amazing camera.
@@intrinsicimagery It's not like this is my only lens that I use. I have AF lenses too, but variety is the spice of life! :)
@@EYExplore do you make a living as a photographer?
