Thank you!! It should be in 4k as well if you need it. :)
Always a pleasure
Thanks for watching! :)
Hey Lukasz, seeing today’s episode, I was wondering if you could make an update video on how you edit your images. I know you don’t like making tutorials on that topic, but I think people would definitely appreciate it. I find that you have beautiful colors in your images-of course, this always depends on your camera and environment-, especially the skin tones I struggle with most. And I don’t expect any editing secrets since there are non, but I think it would help to see your flow.
Btw. I appreciate the acrobatic capturing skills on Axel’s side, really keeps the viewer captivated besides the thrilling content. Keep it up!
Axel really keeps the angles fresh! You know, I might make one. I feel my editing flow hasn't changed much but that could just be since I don't notice the gradual evolution. So a fresh video on the topic might be warranted. :)
Good review of this lens. I usually watch your videos when they first come out and I didn’t because I thought this might be an old video or one with the Nikon Z 50, but then I realized there’s a new Yongnuo 50mm. I’ve never had this brand before but it’s nice to see other more third party choices at great price points for those of us not making a living with photography and are just hobbyists. Can’t wait till the next video 👍🏻👍🏻
Yeah, it was my first time using a lens from them. A long time ago I had a Yongnuo flash. And I still have a cool RGB LED stick from them too. Thanks for watching! :)
Hi Lukasz! I just found your channel after deciding to get my z6ii. I know this is a bit late from a 4-month-old video, but I want to say that your video is very helpful for providing an IRL perspective of low-light photography. Also, I lived in Japan for a month and my place was at Takadanobaba, so this video is super nostalgic for me.
Thank you so much! Glad our videos hits in two ways: informative and nostalgic. :)
Awesome video Thanks ❤️🙌🏻
Thank you for watching! :)
50mm is one of my favorite focal lengths, but in these Tokyo streets it seems like it's pretty difficult to use lol
Yeah, I find it quite difficult as well and it's not my preferred focal length. :)
Love your style and explanations, thank you. 19:21 - I love the best. Interesting what you think about focus by wire on all modern NIKKOR lenses
Thanks! Generally I work with it and see a lot of advantages, but sometimes it would be nice to just have an infinity stop and direct control. :)
Hoping to visit next year and do the Halloween tour with you guys along with a few others.
Oh yeah, I hope Halloween comes back full force eventually! :)
You challenged my eye. You were the only one in this video without a mask and wearing shorts, sandals and socks.
:P
I don't have any in-depth comment to make tonight. Just wanting to show support and say awesome video. I always had a love/hate relationship with the 50mm focal length. I love it for a lot of things, but then again I also shoot a lot of architecture (documenting space?) shots which then I always wish I had brought a smaller lens with me haha.
Thank you!! And yeah, I feel the same about 50mm. I tend not to use these primes much, so it's a nice challenge once in a while. :)
Nice video and looks a decent lens but after seeing your 40mm Voigtlander videos, I bought one and it's now my favourite lens.
Awesome!! Glad you like that lens! It's easily my favorite. :)
Excellent. I have exactly the same lens.
Nice! Do you like it? :)
I have two older Yongnuo lenses I use with my D800E, and for the price, I was very happy with the performance. These new ones should only be better.
Glad to hear that! I think in general it might be easier and cheaper to produce great optics for the Z mount because it requires fewer corrective lens elements. I say that because I've seen so many great lenses and good price points for this mount.
Good video. One thing I would suggest is varying the height/angle that you take photos. All the photos you've taken are at eye-level and can be a little bland as a result. Try getting low to the ground. or shoot from higher ground sometimes. Again, not a criticism as enjoy your content, but would definitely keep things more interesting.
He usually does shoot from a lot of different positions, see plenty where he's bending or squatting fully while even leaning to 1 side to get the shot he wants
Yeah good call, I do sometimes but didn't really do it in this video. It depends how I feel and what lens I am using. I find I get low when I am using wide angle lenses, like 28mm or wider. :)
Great video as usual! When ever my next trip to Japan and Tokyo is, has now been postponed as I will study for a year. But I am still hoping. BUT! As I am watching your video, a challenge came to me. How about a Thomas Heaton style landscape video? Travel out of Tokyo to the country side and shoot some landscapes? Just for fun? Keep up the good work!
PS! The first photo of the guy and the cat was fire! Best photo of the video.
We are planning to start doing stuff outside of Tokyo! Stay tuned! :)
Thanks! :)
Just commenting to show support
Thank you so much!! :)
When you make Video Turn on the Click shutter Noise thing may its easyer for you and More immersive for us 😊👍🏻 Love the content in the Video 👍🏻👍🏻
Yeah, I might have to do that next time! But the digital shutter sound is sooooo lame haha. :)
Meanwhile, Yakuzas when seeing Lucas and Axel : 🤨🧐🤔
Hahaha :)
Hi Lukasz. Could you tell me who says EYExplore at the start of your videos
Chica. She's been on the channel a few times. :)
i've always wondered something,tokyo is such a massive city but also very clean but how does it smell? does it have a special smell or just smells like any other city? it's a strange question haha
Clean? Haha have you seen shibuya and akihabara? After the weekend a lot of garbage in the pedestrian streets, bars and roads but yeah the rest of districts are clean
Sometimes it really stinks, haha! Sometimes it smells like nice food though. :)
akihabara smells like farts
@@EYExplore haha ok well at least i know a little more now
Tokyo is generally clean but there are times it doesn't spell nice... humidity doesn't help.
People might not realize but most trash collection is basically putting trash bag as-is on designated spot (sometimes just on the sidewalk really).
It's not uncommon for crow to go though the trash...
I have the Youngnou 50mm for the F mount
Nice! How do you like it?
@@EYExploreI like the Youngnou 50mm for my F Mount alot o also own the Youngnou 35mm for my Nikon D5500 and I intend to purchase the 85mm Youngnou and maybe the 105mm Youngnou for my Nikon D5500
Does LR have a profile for this lens, or others from the same maker? Would make it a tad easier to let LR auto-correct lens distortion instead of correcting it manually.
Unfortunately, it does not and I didn't search very hard. The distortion is there but it's not thaaaat significant, so I just let it go. :)
Would you say this is a better option than the 50mm1.8G via the FTZ on a Z6ii. Don't want to splurge on the 50mm Z so looking for the best possible affordable alternative.
I think a native Z mount lens, even from a third party, might work a bit better in terms of AF, but I'm really not sure. I think you do get better stabilization with native Z mount lenses.
@@EYExplore I am leaning toward thinking this as well. Now I'm just stuck deciding if the extra $300+ would be worth it for the official Nikon S lens. Thanks for the input and I appreciate you taking this particular lens our for a spin (not too many videos yet on this lens).
What was that awesome Osamu Tezuka mural?
Apparently he was living in Takadanobaba, so that's why there is a mural here commemorating him and his work. :)
@@EYExplore aw, that's great!
"Come On, Universe"... I'm going to remember that for the days I have a 95 percent loss rate.
Haha, yeah! :)
I've used fuji 35mm (50mm equiv.) and it just seems too close/clausturphobic in Tokyo in general.
I agree! It was fun to shoot with the 50mm here but basically I prefer 28mm or 40mm at most. These days I'm using the 26mm f/2.8. :)
@@EYExplore Right on. Best lens I ever had was the Fuji XQ1 in a 24mm/f1.8. Something like that. I make up for that by shooting 1:1 on a 40mm or 28mm equivalent to 50mm and then hitting FN1 to get 16:9 wider. That tends to simulate the jump from 28/40mm to 50mm well enough.
Plesae extend the time slots you give to the shots so taht tey can be vieved and the shot data can be read comfortably. They ate too swift at the moment.
Making them longer is tricky because they cover up the action. I know it's not ideal, but I recommend just pausing the video. :)
I'm sad you aren't using custom buttons Lukasz. I don't use Nikon I have Sony bodies however I would surprised if that Z9 beast wouldn't have very similar custom recall settings like my Sony A7iv.
I can assign a group of settings to a custom button, eg. ISO, shutter speed, EV, shooting mode, focus mode, aperture etc so if I am was shooting at f2.8 SS 1/125, auto ISO and then "an interesting guy comes through" like at 3:00 in the video, I can press the custom button I saved the custom recall setting (like my AF-ON with my thumb) to instantly have my settings change to say f1.8 1/500 auto ISO continuous shooting so I don't miss the shot. Surely the Z9 does something similar. You paid a lot for that technology my friend, you should use it.
Yeah, I don't find the need for that. This kind of stuff only really happens when I'm shooting these videos because it's actually very difficult to focus on shooting while also narrating coherently. When I'm on my own, it's extremely rare that I am on the wrong setting. I find it already fast enough to just change between M and A, which is all I need to go from fast to slow settings. Of course, if you have a way that works for you, by all means, stick with it. I'm not pushing my way. You should watch my video on fast mode / slow mode for details: ua-cam.com/video/20HtSDYsfXo/v-deo.html
@@EYExplore I'll check it out.
raw or jpge？
I always shoot raw and edit all the photos I put in the videos. :)
A Nikon Z9 for street photography. How to go unproved.
I'm not sure what you mean. The camera honestly doesn't matter, but I own for my job, so why not use it?
Z9 looks to over expose during night more than 2 EV. like my old Canon 5DIII.
Interesting, I don't feel that way. It might be my edit or even how the photos look when I export from Premiere. I feel I never get exactly the perfect tones when showing the photos in a video vs just the actual photos. :)
