[@davidhunternyc1]

Great photoshoot. I liked seeing the preset photos too. I know it's more expensive, but which camera would you rather have and why, the A7IV or the A9II ? Thanks.

[@sofotographic]

I had to spilt it up in 2 parts. 1 hour during my lunch break and the remainder just now. I love these long videos. Such an inspiration to get out there shoot. Alas it's pouring rain 😭

[@lauriveijalainen3869]

I'm waiting until I get home from work, brew some coffee, put my feet up and escape to streets of NY. Long form vids like this are my jam.

[@got2beable]

Parts and im thankful for those Videos. I learn a lot from those. Thank you Pierre

[@mayurkachave3436]

Bro which camera is your favorite. please tell us bro😃

[@user-lv6ob7hq3k]

how he takes pictures of random things we see everyday and turns them into beautiful masterpieces is mind blowing

[@lauriveijalainen3869]

That's about the best thing about street photography and why I like to shoot street myself! To notice the little things.

[@USGrant21st]

perhaps you need to look the word "masterpiece" in the dictionary

[@ZukaHx]

eay, just buy a 3k camera

[@stephenbuback6252]

That’s the magic about photography

[@losganns3674]

I swear he does. First you see a bridge...then he snaps it and its like holy sh!t!!!! 😂

[@danleevlogs]

If you could add ISO, shutterspeed and focal length specs when showing pics, that would be awesome! Love your videoes!

[@addlurch]

This comment is under rated!

[@kefkapalazzo1]

irrelvant. they're too variable

[@CassidyHansen]

As he mentions in another video, and I'd have to agree with, it's not that critical. Set your auto ISO min shutter speed and pic an aperture and just shoot. Street shooting isn't about spending time dialing in settings. I do agree that it would be nice to know the focal length.

[@Aarzak]

Exactly my thoughts. I don't have a problem composing a capture in NYC, anywhere you look could be a great capture. I was watching the videos for the specs. Instead, he shares some irrelevant filters I'm never gonna use.

[@CassidyHansen]

@@Aarzak but how does knowing his specs affect your photography. A lot of his shooting is spur of the moment too, meaning he just gets whatever settings the camera gives. I guess I don't understand the focus on knowing other people's settings. Most of us are just picking an aperture value, having dialed in min ss in auto iso and maybe set a 2nd back button for action shots. Who cares what settings you use. It's not landscape photography

[@user-gh3jy7uq6o]

I love just sitting back, relaxing and watching your take photos. It’s amazing how you take the everyday world and make it beautiful.

[@shariarshuvo]

When he tossed his camera in 10:25 My heart skipped a beat.

[@kevinrodriguez9659]

The intro of the video is literally his camera bag 30 ft away from him with a couple scopes all worth a couple thousand dollars and his a7iv with his 1.2 gmaster on top of it outside of a subway entrance in ghetto ass New York lol

[@azvisuals]

After shooting the same NYC streets over and over, I loved to see your perspective of the city and how you shoot it with a different eye! So refreshing. The A7 IV is def my next big purchase!

[@canturgan]

That won't make you any better.

[@mrobitwice77]

@@canturgan jeez, why are you so negative?

[@canturgan]

@@mrobitwice77 Because it's the person, not the equipment. I suppose a new toy can inspire you for a while, but in the end it's literally the photographer's vision.

[@SourPlanet]

@@canturgan They said nothing about the A7 IV making them a better photographer, nor implied such. They admired his work and then said that's their next camera choice. Literally no one said gear is the maker of good work. Just grind that axe at random people, I guess lol.

[@jimdabomb]

Sony cameras are garbage, had an A7RII.. I'll stick to Canon

[@commanderkrieger]

In the first minutes of this video you can see how impressed you are. You are looking in all directions to find possible photospots. NYC is so gorgeous. Big streets, tall skyscrapers with so many windows, lights everywhere you look, people running around and dont give a shit what you are doing. Also signs and simple things are more colourful than in Germany. In Germany you make a picture of a person and they get pissed, cause officially its not allowed to make pictures from people without their permission. Great video. thank you...

[@thegeneral123]

Unless they happen to be in shot and not the clear subject of the photography.

[@ByRNLD]

EU Rules have damaged our photography passion. :/

We can take pictures of people in public spaces without their permission in the UK. We're not in the EU either.

[@Anon54387]

@@Pierretlambert Pierre, I think you might be in too much of a habit of automatically applying presets to your images. Many of those taken in the 12 to 15 minute marks were better before the presets. This isn't the first time I've noticed and commented on this. I've said this on prior videos of yours. One, if I recall, was where you were taking a picture of a parking structure.

[@jorgemaurizio9424]

@@Anon54387 He is selling those presets... so is kind of rude, IMO, to post that photos were better before the presets... and actually better or worse is just a matter of personal taste.

I really appreciate your work just to make this video and years behind when your relationship started with the photography this is a love story for life i hope one day I'll join you on these amazing breathing streets of NYC!

Watching this is fueling the anticipation I have for my A7IV to arrive, my first full frame camera!

[@jasonswartzbaugh3925]

Love these videos!! Love to see how people do street photography. Even just watching this I can see many compositions. However people interest me less and the architecture grabs me more. That's just how I roll. That's what makes photography so great. Keep up the great work! Fantastic production value btw.

[@johnd9357]

I struggle with composition. I have the technical knowledge, but the artistic touch is something I lack. Hopefully I can develop it.
