    You're so good it's stupid. It's such a gift what you're giving me as a beginner who started out a year ago not knowing jack squat about this craft and now I can take photos with such confidence and with the knowledge that I am getting better day by day. I can see the years of hard work in every photo you take. Thank you :)

  • @troesplain

    I really like it how right at time stamp 4:10, you showed what you were doing with the “lowering” your shutter speed so you could get some motion blur. This helps me as I am a beginner photographer that is absorbing as much tips and tricks as I can to do well as I go out to shoot street photography. 👍🏼

    There at the beginning of the video there is that exit from the subway station, man, there you could explore a lot. It would certainly leave excellent photographs, and even inside the station. Here in São Paulo, Brazil, we like to explore train stations, subways and bus terminals, it makes for good pictures.

    Wow your photos remind me so much of Saul Leiter. Really been loving what you've been posting on IG and youtube. Also you somehow manage to nail an almost kodachrome look with Fuji that is pretty hard to make without looking cheesy or having an uncannyness to it. Thank you for the inspiration and really enjoying your work recently!

    I was just in NYC over the last weekend with X100V. I was with my friends so I couldn’t take as many photos, but NYC is definitely the place with many inspirations and subjects to capture.
    Really inspired me to play around with my other lens and X-T4 to try other than 35mm.

    • @FaizalWestcott
      @FaizalWestcott  Рік тому +1

      Thanks Joseph! I don't really know if I will because I'm not exactly technical when it comes to lenses. For me the main reasoning was I don't think there's any other lens option out there that's native Fujifilm mount that is 18-50 and this compact/light. My only con so far is no aperture ring

    When you guys use slow shutter speed for motion blur like the one in 6:00 does your camera/lens have image stabilizer? Because I dont have stabilizer on either my camera or lense and when I try to shoot on slow shutter speed hand held everything is basically blurry
