In part based on your videos of Lisbon and Porto we traveled there earlier this month to visit and take photos. Although it was rainy in Porto, both cities were great for interesting photos as suggested. Lisbon was reminiscent of San Franciso, but more unique architecture and people and probably steeper streets. Thanks, Roman! Keep exploring these great cities for us!
Small correction, it's said Graça (as in Grass-a). Great video as always. And happy you had a much better experience in Lisbon, than the first one. Hope you come back.
Amazing how an outsider manages to show that this is indeed a beautiful city, with lots of photo oportunities. Thanks for that, now I just hope for sun in the weekend :-)
Also visited Lisbon after a trip to Cascais this spring, it’s my favourite town in Europe. I only got told off about not shooting my camera in the market. There were big signs and quite angry stares. Still have to go through and my photos from that trip. My 18 and 70-300 got the most use. Damn you are walking far, Alfama to Belem….probably should have done that after all pasteis de belem - great video!
Exactly, shooting street in Lisbon is easy mode, everything is so damn photogenic. And then those colorful Carreiras! For anyone planning to visit, do yourself a favor and try the Ginjinha, it's a delicious cherry liquor.
Did you walk to Champalimaud research center right next to Torre de Belem? That has amazing architecture and when the sun hits it just right, there's great pictures to be had.
Roman, Wife and I are headed to Portugal in late summer, so this is super helpful for introducing us to the place and anticipating the types of images we might find. I’ll look for your travel channel.
Your guides are great- thank you. We’re midway through our weeklong trip now. I second your thoughts about focal length: when I first arrived I felt that a wide angle would be best as the streets are quite narrow, but with the long hilly streets the compression of a telephoto results in amazing photos. I actually find myself grabbing my iPhone 3x telephoto a fair bit.
I love your pictures and the great guide that will definitely be helpful when i go to lisbon later this year! Some real gems in your selection of photos, wow! 👏🏻
Great stuff! Aso went to Lisbon for a few days last summer and for some reason I edited most of my photos in black and white. I can also recommend the Miradouro da Senhora do Monte (great view, many people and always planes passing by in the distance) and an underground passage with nice graffiti and lights (38°42'10.6"N 9°10'28.7"W).
Another fantastic video, thank you for all the insights. I was once told to expose to the right. But what I see in your pix is so much more powerful and suits me more. Thanks for giving me inspiration to use some of this stile of light and deep shadows again.
It was a joy to see your video and to see familiar places by different eyes. If you have the chance to return to Torre de Belém, go a bit further to Fundação Champalimaud. Thanks for this great video!
Excellent video - Lisbon is a great city and very photgenic. I have been couple of times since taking up photography and there are places you showed that I haven't seen!!! Must get back there again! I'm fortunate in that I am relatively close as I live in the Algarve.
Great video Roman! You made me want to go to Porto so bad with your trip there and now you’ve done Lisbon just as much justice! You’ve given me a hard choice to make for a city break this summer!
Thanks Roman. Been to Lisbon (& Porto) took a ton of photos, but didn't have enough days there.Recognized many of your places, great memories. Tram transportation is a plus for us as seniors, but have been known to cover 13-15 km a day in August heat .
Yeah, love this city! I would also suggest to visit Sintra and Cabo da Roca. Cabo da Roca is one of those metaphysical places that make me think about life and time.
Great insight Roman. Very enjoyable. I was supposed to be going there to watch a gig at the Campo Pequeno tomorrow night, and spend a couple of days shooting. However passport is delayed. I'll get there later in the year and follow your footsteps. Keep up the great content. 👍
I absolutely loved Lisbon. Some incredible shots mixed in here too Roman. Bloody hell I was out of breath wandering about though. Nothing prepares you for those hills 😂😂😂
campo d' ourigue is also nice :) a cool spot is the roof of the Estrella church there and you have a nice park. I was there in 2019 and really liked it. Lisbon is a great city loved it every moment.
Bring comfortable shoes or trainers, the footpath or pavement is very uneven, I had sore feet after a few days but it's a great place and I will go back sometime, possibly also to visit Porto.
Cool video as usual. Waiting for the longer one on the other Channel. Lisbon is Indeed high on my to go list. Planed for next automn, sailing there. No doubts it's gonna be awesome. Thank you for sharing
Great video, Roman. Thank you! I'm ready to head to Lisbon. My only question is why you seem to have an aversion to a zoom lens like the 24-105mm Sony G OSS except for its rather slow f/4 aperture across all focal lengths. I found it to be great for street photography in Paris last fall during daylight hours. I used the Sony Zeiss 55mm f/1.8 lens on my alpha 7Riv for dusk and nighttime shots. Have you ever compared that equipment to the Fujifilm camera and lenses that you use to great effect? Is the Fujifilm significantly lighter or smaller? Thanks again for your great work!!
Great video Roman. I’m planning a trip to Lisbon with the missus, so this is handy. One question though. Why the three lenses, wouldn’t it have been easier to go with the 16-55 and the 90?
Thanks! For a lisboner, it doesn't look as fresh and new as perhaps you see it. I have trouble avoiding my photos looking too turistic. But I can give you all a tip to see something more. Notice, when you go to the west, how the buildings and palaces look more colonial, notice the banana trees and exotic trees in the backyards. You'll see very exotic trees like the dragon tree and others. Notice how the most common tree in Lisbon besides plates and maples is the jacarandá. Also see when you go east the oppressiveness of the massive religious buildings, think of the inquisition... Just two tips...
Next time check out Parque das Naçoes and Oriente station. Amazing modern architecture and a good vibe. Don't be like Google Maps - it's pronounced Park das Nassoys (with a hint of an 'n' where the 'y' is) Google says Nackos which is always good for a laugh
So useful. So inspirational. Can't wait for the full guide on your travel channel. I'm planning my trip to Portugal right now and using your videos/photos as my inspiration. In other words, shamelessly stealing all your ideas! 😁
Do you carry a single camera body? I feel like with 3 primes, i'd be constantly wanting to change between lenses and spend less time enjoying the moment. I have the 33 f/1.4 and I'm tempted to bring only that one for my next europe trip.
Hello Roman, great video with good advice and photos. One question about the lens you mention in the video (28, 50 and 135mm) are those 35mm equivalent lens numbers or APSC numbers? Thanks
Grass is always greener on the other side. I find London to be awesome for photography too. Love my Lisbon ❤️

Hope the weather is on your side! looked at the weather app now that im back in the uk and it looks a lot nicer than here ha

Cool vid. Wish I'd spent more time there when I went. Might have to make another visit.

yeah agree!
good vid, good work... excellent channel!
You should also have gone to the Mouraria neighborhood, the oldest neighborhood in Lisbon
Did you walk to Champalimaud research center right next to Torre de Belem? That has amazing architecture and when the sun hits it just right, there's great pictures to be had.
JUST BEAUTIFUL!! I could here my camera constantly snapping while watching this!!
Roman, Wife and I are headed to Portugal in late summer, so this is super helpful for introducing us to the place and anticipating the types of images we might find. I’ll look for your travel channel.
My favourites are Bangkok, Prague, Gothenburg and San Sebastian

I went to Lisbon for this exact reason and will be going back as soon as I can.
Hey Roman, I purchased your Zine about Lisbon, you captured some really great images which I love, cheers.
I love your pictures and the great guide that will definitely be helpful when i go to lisbon later this year! Some real gems in your selection of photos, wow! 👏🏻

Got into photography a few months after my Portugal/Spain trip! I need to go back!!!
Your best work yet, more as a showcase of what the city has to offer. Loved the music and editing!
I can't wait to go there! I will hang onto this video when we go. Thank you!!
I just got back from lisbon and agree with everything you said here, took my X-E4 and the 35 f2 and had so much fun, brilliant as always Roman!
Another fantastic video, thank you for all the insights. I was once told to expose to the right. But what I see in your pix is so much more powerful and suits me more. Thanks for giving me inspiration to use some of this stile of light and deep shadows again.
Just back thanks to your recommendations. Back on the radar soon.
It was a joy to see your video and to see familiar places by different eyes. If you have the chance to return to Torre de Belém, go a bit further to Fundação Champalimaud. Thanks for this great video!
Beautiful images and video, thanks.
Coincidentally, I am going in a week! Your photos give me great ideas.
Every of your videos makes me picking up my camera to go shoot or planing trips to somewhere. Thanks for the motivation :)
fantastic video roman! definitely inspired me to go for a photo trip to lisbon.
Thanks for watching!
Excellent video - Lisbon is a great city and very photgenic. I have been couple of times since taking up photography and there are places you showed that I haven't seen!!! Must get back there again! I'm fortunate in that I am relatively close as I live in the Algarve.
Amazing captures and you make Lisbon look So inviting! TFS ~!~
Beautiful job Roman! I felt like that I was walking right beside you, touring these beautiful cities. Thank you!😊🙏❤️
Great video Roman! You made me want to go to Porto so bad with your trip there and now you’ve done Lisbon just as much justice! You’ve given me a hard choice to make for a city break this summer!
Do both! only a short train between the two
very interesting video! amazing as always :)
This was fantastic, Roman! Such a great guide to Lisbon SP potential! Glad to have you pass by!
Thanks Roman. Been to Lisbon (& Porto) took a ton of photos, but didn't have enough days there.Recognized many of your places, great memories. Tram transportation is a plus for us as seniors, but have been known to cover 13-15 km a day in August heat .

Yeah, love this city! I would also suggest to visit Sintra and Cabo da Roca. Cabo da Roca is one of those metaphysical places that make me think about life and time.
Oh for sure all those are on the list. That would be for a different trip however. Cheers!
Great guide and great photos. Thanks Roman!😊
Very inspiring as always! Thanks
Looks amazing....love that shot of the women on the balcony with the birds on the wire
Thanks!

Reminds me to go back, been 20 years. Thanks.
Would have changed quite a lot id imagine!
campo d' ourigue is also nice :) a cool spot is the roof of the Estrella church there and you have a nice park. I was there in 2019 and really liked it. Lisbon is a great city loved it every moment.
Yeah i will be going back or sure
Great suggestions!
Glad you like them!

Hi! What is the name of the street of photo 6:46? I can’t find it in google maps street view. Love to hear! Going to Lisbon tomorrow 😍😍
Seems to be Rua do Jasmim. Cheers
Cool video as usual. Waiting for the longer one on the other Channel. Lisbon is Indeed high on my to go list. Planed for next automn, sailing there. No doubts it's gonna be awesome. Thank you for sharing
Sailing there?! wow that would be so cool. Especially going under the bridge. Yeah the longer one will be a while away as it takes more time
Great video Roman. Thank you very much!
Glad you liked it!

Hello Roman! Which lens better for travel?
Thx! Great video
5:48 Is it only me or anyone else imagine the Apple logo shining through the tree leaves? 😅
Hi, do you use Auto ISO?
Hey Roman do you use a Film simulation or recipe for your jpgs?
Nah all edited from raw
@@snapsbyfox Thanks! that shot at 0:48 is a banger, cheers
Cheers for that Roman, a day, a week, or maybe a year?
Good afternoon!
The neighborhood you refers to Belém is Madragoa and not Alfama.
Hello Roman, great video with good advice and photos. One question about the lens you mention in the video (28, 50 and 135mm) are those 35mm equivalent lens numbers or APSC numbers? Thanks
Full frame equivalent. You can see them around 1:36 : 18, 33, 90 mm Fuji
You use a drone for some of these broll shots?
Hey Roman. Do you ever use LRC and would you say LR is enough for street photography?
What about night shots? hows lisbon on that?
It's Graça! Say it like this: Grass-a
come to Porto :)
I live since 25 years in Asia and prefer street in Bangkok, Hong Kong and Osaka.... and whole India.
Have you tried wearing roller skates to save your legs?
28 50 and 135??? really? what happened to 18 33 and 90?
They are the same thing. I was talking about full frame terms as this video is aimed at everyone, not just APSC users :)
@@snapsbyfox I get it, however, you could've mention that it FF eq... otherwise it looks like you pick up 18mm lens and say its 28mm :)
Grakka 😂
Great video and introduction to Lisbon Roman 👍🫶
