Nice casual street vlog, Hashem. Really great shot with the police and the man's head standing too. I also really liked how you showed the four snaps from shooting out the Bourke St. mall scene. Not enough photography videos share that, the less successful frames leading on to the favorite. Looking forward to the travel content. Stay safe, and enjoy yourselves.
Thanks Ben!
Very nice pictures and a great video! Thank you for this!!!
Many thanks!
Great stuff, dude. 👍🏻
I often have to remind myself that "they can't all be zingers" when out shooting. I love your honesty with this video, showing the great image examples mixed with the ones that were not quite pin sharp or the exposure was a little off, or whatever. You still came away with a bunch of very good images in a few hours. We need more of this in YT videos. Shatter the notion that a camera/film camera will give you amazing images with every shutter press. It's just not the reality.
Safe travels to you & Sarah, & have lots of fun, man! 😁🤙🏼
Thanks man, that's so true. Most my rolls have even less keepers than this 😅
Thanks for the video, interesting to see how fast paced you are. The M-A: how do you deal with rapid light changes and focusing? I'd guess your 28mm was mostly set at f/8? But the light seems to be changing pretty fast, with hard shadows most of the time and sole shots under glaring light, so how do you determine speed while walking and shooting at such pace? How often to you stop and double check? Do you use a handheld meter for that? Or phone? Or your R6? Do you actually use the rangefinder on such walks or just resort to DoF scale? Any advice for shooters considering to go meterless? Thanks!
That would be my question, too! Is Hashem just setting his shutter speed and aperture from prior experience, adjusting constantly - or, is there an unseen lightmeter involved?
Hashem! I’m glad you are still enjoying your M-A. I just picked up a M3 (again) to accompany my existing M-A.
Thanks! That's a nice combo, congrats
Melbourne is definitely my bucket list to visit and shoot. Great video 😊
Thanks! :-)
Great video and many fantastic shots. Make me want to load up my camera and hit the streets. Its a bit of a challenge though at this time as I am living in Reykjavik, Iceland with like 4 hours of winter daylight and much fewer people on the streets 😀
Thank you! Wow that's surreal, and yeah it must be tricky. It could be cool to lean into those two factors somehow with the photos though.
Ayyy My Waverley station haha good times 😅 I hope the travels are going well, can't wait to see the shots!
Thanks!
Awesome vid enjoyed it thanks Hashem.
Thanks man!
nice vid Hashem. Look forward to seeing the pics when youre back from Bangladesh
Thank you 😁
You did that kid so dirty at 1:28 catching him mid-blink like that. Great video as always!
I know right! 😅 I'm sorry, kid
Thanks Hashem. Great photos. Still learning from you mate!
Thanks Reuel! Hope you're well :-)
First image - one of the best street photographs Ive seen. well done
Thank you! 🙂
@@pushingfilm What shutter-speed and aperture are you typically set on, when doing street photography🙂
Great video
Thanks!
I've seen a lot of people starting to talk about Kentmere lately, no doubt because it's now available in 120. I've been a big user of k400 for a while, preferably mixed in Xtol to tame what is normally a coarser grain. I think for street photography, and those quick "bang bang" shots, images that are grittier and less "perfect" at the core, Kentmere is hard to beat for the price
That's true! I've yet to try in 120, but have always found it a good option for budget 400 speed bnw, especially for street work like you said.
Hi Hashem. I never asked how you self develop B&W. What developer do you use ? Do you go for single use developers ? Nice to see another video out. Hope there’s another breakfast / morning live stream chat around the corner. Loved that intro !
I use Kodak HC-110 for almost everything including this roll! It was developed in dilution B for 6 minutes. Thanks mate, hopefully a I'll get back on the lives in early Jan once I'm back. Otherwise if a good chance comes up to do one overseas I'll do that again :-)
I really enjoyed this video. Which flash did you use on the M-A?
Nice work! I'm finishing my 2nd last roll of Kentmere. Never impressed. Prefer HP+5. I liked the kids reacting and a few frames! That's good!
Thank you!
nice photos
Thank you!
Nice video! What was your video setup? It looked pretty sleek and compact. Beautiful camera, by the way ✌
Thanks! I was using the DJI Osmo action 2 for all the POV footage, with a couple of clips on the Canon R6 (such as the talking bit at Fed Square)
Love the photos and the contrast. Are you pushing the film or how do you exactly achieve the look?
Thanks! These haven't been pushed, but ever since I started using a camera/macro and NLP for my scans, i noticed this positive change in the results from my black and white shots. Much more control over contrast too.
Maybe a dumb question, but what is that thing sticking up from the camera body near the viewfinder?
It's an accessory rewind lever by Soom :-)
All the film were shot at sunny day without any pushing?
The film was not pushed
3:11 that is downstairs of my building,close to my home
Sap Men!! Is that your favorite black and white film stock? I'm a M-A user (Probably you pushed me finally) I'm using Leica Summicrom 2.0 (Black anodized 50mm and Trix 400 but open for other rolls... How about Ilford HP5? ...Fomapan.. Cinestill? tell me about your best results. How about lenses: i saw you shot with the Zeiss Sonnar. can you talk about your favorite lenses on 50 and 28 or 26? I like the old 40s 50s 60s look for black and white. 70s 80s for color ones; wich color ones do you recommend as well I didn't used still but i got Portra 400. But again, still open to find my own way. I'm sure your experience could help me.
Thanks a lot.
Nice works dude.
Greets from Spaniard in Phoenix.
Nice, congrats! HP5 five is the b&w I shoot most, but love most black and white films. Cinestill is a bit expensive and I prefer to shoot original Kodak Vision when possible (also avoids halations). Sonnar 50 is still a great lens that I'm keeping, check out my review on it if you're interested. At the moment I have the same setup of M lenses: 28 Ultron, 35 Biogon 2.8, 50 Sonnar 1.5, and Tele-Elmarit 90. If you havent tried much of it, I recommend Kodak Pro-Image if you can get your hands on some 👍🏽
Good film camera📹🐰🎞
Do you zone focus?
Yes, most of the time
I just bought an M-A, how are you still liking it?
Congrats! I still love it, I also put out my review video recently.
Ain't there a predisposition from public to paparazzi'fy anyone with a camera shooting in public?
Dang it.. all these photo channels starting to show more Kentmere 400. It's been nice having a cheaper film choice while it lasted I guess..lol
Great video though. I enjoy vlogs like this from cities I haven't been to. It makes me feel like i'm there being a tourist..hah
my good sir are you zone focusing?
Mostly, yes. With some slower paced shots I'll use the rangefinder
No offense or disrespect to what you shoot, always nice to see content and well done for creating the vlog! but I find Melbourne to be boring for street photography, it just doesn’t have the impact, light and general atmosphere places like New York or Tokyo have. I live here too and I have gone to the city many times and have come back uninspired and disappointed in the content. It’s not he same city it once was… keep up the channel mate!
Hey, none taken! I can see what you mean, especially when compared to shooting overseas. I just try to make the most of it and create inspiration as much as possible. Thank you, will do 🙂
In almost ever photo there is some schmuck looking at the camera. Ruins the photo imo.
I dont mind it. I find it can often add some extra connection with the subject and interest to the photo. Look at Garry Winogrands work - he often got direct interaction or eye contact with the people he photograped on the street and it made his work more interesting.
@@htt2707 I think of the photographer as being an invisible observer, like you'd expect in a movie, at least when it comes to street photography. When you distract the subjects with your presence, it breaks the natural flow of action. Like, this group of kids was playing soccer and you wanted to capture it, but now they're not playing soccer they're looking over at the guy with the camera.
He was on limited time before an overseas holiday shooting 36 shots. Forgive him for not being so Cartier-Bresson & waiting for 10 minutes to get one moment without any eye contact. 🙄
@@mpk33 I wasn't criticizing him...
eh interacting with the street itself is kinda part of it. it’s bound to happen getting up close. i also give props to anyone who is taking photos of strangers with them looking right down the lens. most people struggle with finding that courage
