  • Street photography is not about having the best gear or the fastest glass. Heck, it's not even about having good gear at all. Don't believe me? Watch the video and I'll prove it.
    It doesn't matter whether you're shooting on a Leica M6, A Fujifilm X-Pro3 or A Kodak Funsaver disposable, a great street photographer will be able to capture a good image with whatever he is stuck with, regardless of it's value, quality or optical performance. Knowledge and skill is key. This is relative of course. You're not going to be capturing anything trying to use a literal potato to make a photo, no matter how skilled or smart you are.
    With all that being said, Restrict yourself purposefully sometimes. Don't grab that fast f1.2 or f1.4 glass this time when you head out. Don't even grab your best camera. Just head out with a setup that actually restricts you in some way, and learn to adapt. FED, Zorki, Canon, Nikon, Pentax, heck even a Vivitar. Grab whatever you use least, head out the door and start learning real street photography. By putting in the miles and putting in the time. That's the only way to learn real experience.

    The photos are very good. I recommend two old digicams: Kodak DC4800 and Kyocera Finecam M410R. I believe both have CCD sensors and the photos I have taken with them are beautiful.😃

      Thanks so much! Never see them in my country unfortunately, but I'll keep an eye out!

    The colors coming out of that camera look crazy! A few of them actually look like film, it's crazy. Well done!

      Thanks Nuno! Yeah it's wild how full of magic these tiny pocket cams are hey🥵 And yet we still have people chasing after some full frame with fast glass only to shoot once every fortnite and never learn anything new because they "have it all"😅🤦🏽‍♂️

      @@eyeofalchemy Right?? If you’re doing professional work where FF is required, fine. But for a casual shooter? There are so many cool options to shoot with!

      Hey! I played around with some of them and others I left untouched. Just goes to show how great that sensor is!

    is it just me or do low megapixel cameras look really good in black and white?...

      100% agree! Has a kind of Tri-X vibe😍

    I’ve just taken my Olympus D-560 Zoom out of the drawer. 3.2 megapixels, a 16 meg XD Picture card and AA batteries. Should be fun playing with it again.

      Sounds like a fun time! I actually found my pair of old Olympus red/blue 3d cardboard glasses, maybe I should pick up that camera too👀
