Skies are not pure and clear here than Japan, but your photos are incredible. Thank you for visiting here. Your photos are inspiring me lots.❤

[@alphapapa4446]

Really gave me nostalgia from when I was stationed in Korea. Photos look awesome. Really great use of the kit lens.

[@gerardneedham]

That’s epic mate, the 18-55 kit lens goes good

[@ledrune]

Were you in Korea during your military service? Thank you for your service 🫡

[@TKNORTH]

You and Mitchy the XT5 bros! Digging the format and your shots bro

[@gerardneedham]

Yeah broski, when are you gonna be joining the XT5 gang let’s gooo

[@nicktheavatar_]

DUDE your photos are mesmerizing, thank you for all the inspiration. Definitely gotta check out Korea one day 😍

[@gerardneedham]

You should! Thanks for the nice word mate

[@doctorsnarf8764]

Man you make the 18-55 lens look so good! Please do more X-T5 videos the camera is amazing!

[@gerardneedham]

Yeah more XT5 content on the way

[@paulm8157]

Enjoyable vid and pics. Sky capsules make for special pics, IMO - great use of negative space. (Wouldn’t want to be stuck on a sky capsule after drinking too many beverages, though😊.) Yes, Fuji AF can frustrate at times. What metering system does your film camera use? (Spot for film can be practical.) Cheers!

[@gerardneedham]

Yeah thanks the negative space makes the image I just use multi and when shooting portraits I netter for the shadows/mid tones So if there is any bright parts of the scene I point the camera down and get my meter reading

[@lighthunter1980]

Beautiful captures.

love from south korea!

[@nicolstewart2738]

Hi! First off, I just found your account and love the content and your photography! I would just like to find out, do you use a tripod with your XT5? And if so, what would you recommend for travelling? I am going to Japan soon and would like to get some good footage, but wondering how necessary a tripod would be, for that extra carrying around.

[@gerardneedham]

Hey no I don’t anymore, I just hold still with the view finder and use the tripod mode in Final Cut Pro, only works if the footage is pretty stable

[@alessandropellegrini2767]

hei man, nice video and good photos🤩! Have you noticed remarkable difference in image quality between 18 f2 and the kit lens at 18mm? Thx

[@gerardneedham]

Not for photography the results are pretty similar, the autofocus on the kit lens is way better for video but it seems to keep up for photo

[@ruff1draft]

Do your lightroom presets work with any camera brand weather the camera be Mirroless or a DSLR

[@gerardneedham]

Yup they work on any camera that shoots RAW (you can use them for JPEG, but it’s not ideal) I’ve tested them on the Canon 5Dmkiii as well as Nikon, lumix, Sony, canon, FujiFilm camera brands as well

[@Arhtehc]

Any plans to go to Greece? Love the longer format video btw

[@gerardneedham]

Next year in September I have a wedding there 🤪 But my partner will also be there in June this year for a wedding

[@peterschorghofer1436]

[@shantanusinghmertia7617]

Japan is known for it’s beautiful colours but all i see the pictures and videos are so muted….but looks nice for a subtle look

[@rqwgsfdsvfd]

한국 병신아 일본말고

[@maartenmidden1651]

Good thing he went to Korea then 😂

[@gerardneedham]

Ahahahahah yeah thanks

[@gerardneedham]

I feel my edits are a pretty neutral saturation and contrast

[@alphapapa4446]

Idk how you missed the fact that they were in Korea.

The balloon shot at 15:20 is gorgeous! 🎈

[@gerardneedham]

Oh thanks man, yup really proud of that one. I’m not really a street photographer but I’m starting to find my genre of photography within street photography

[@photoreviewed-com]

@@gerardneedham Street is tricky. Skills are important but eventually it's all about being in the right time and place 🙂
