I did that as well! I started at a car show. I initially was going for the cars, but soon realized the people interacting with the cars was where the interest lied. Also, about the hip firing thing, I've never had an issue with someone even seeing my camera when shooting normally. At car shows, most people are preoccupied looking at the window stickers and whatnot. I crouch down to get the right angle and I basically become invisible. Shooting [actually] on the streets is basically the same where I live, so long as I use a large zoom lens.

A good tip for number 4, and for street photography in general is to just smile and make a joke out of it, if you back off and look guilty, people will assume you are guilty and get pissed. If you can make them laugh, make a complimentary comment about something they are doing or wearing or whatever, you can diffuse most situations. Generally if you are happy and relaxed in your attitude to taking shots.

Granted, its not as useful as manual.

I find two ways of shooting very useful: 1 As people already mentioned, use a long lens and be quick. People don't usually realize that you are taking pictures of them when you are 10 meters away from them especially when you only point your camera at them for two seconds. 2 If you want to frame closer, use an ultra wide lens (not fisheye). You can zone focus very easy and to make it even easier, stop down to a deep DOF. I very often shoot with a 12mm lens @ F4. That gives you 1 meter to infinity in focus. Also as your subject is so close, don't take your camera up, Just pretend you are playing with your lens knowing that everything should be in focus already. What about framing? Do it in post production. Of course you will need a lens with distance scale or better a DOF scales as well. Lok also mentioned a very useful technique before, Point your camera up and pretend you are shooting something high, then lower your camera and pretend yo are check the photo which in fact you are take the shot. Very good tip...
@milesalcano341410 жыл бұрын
1.) defeats the purpose of "being there" in the scene 2.) wide lenses are great to fill more elements but you need to get closer to your subjects when eliminating stuffs in the frame and including what's only important. framing should not be done in post production, do it in the process of making the photo. if you will rely in post then how can you learn and practice your framing when shooting and not needing to do it in post? 3.) Zac Arias was the first to mention that technique. a better way to shoot directly up to your eye is do as how you would take a normal photo on an eye level but after taking the shot, look to something else. pretend that you are taking something else and do not look into the subject's eyes I'm no expect in Street Photography, just giving my 2cents here

Samuel Wong well that explains how you don't have the courage to get closer to your subjects. Getting yelled or punch is part of the genre, street photography is not for the cowards and with anxious attitudes. Of course getting closer doesn't mean 'better' photos but you will never get any improvements by not getting close to your subjects and the enjoyment of the genre will never satisfy you through long lens taking the shot from a far. Get your guts together or don't do SP. My 2cents for your cowardice

There is also another way that allows you to get closeer. All you need is a tilt screen. Prefocus and wait for your subject to fall into focus. This is very easily done now given all current generation of mirrorless has peaking. I wasn't suggesting people should not get close. My original post suggest people use ultra wide to achieve this, or the method mention above...Just don't pull your camera up in someone's face and frame. You should never let your enthusiasm get over your personal safety, it is never worth it. If there is a safe way to do it, do it that way.

I've found that forcing yourself to shoot on the street and seeing the awesome shots you gather REALLY helps the shy factor. I used to be terrified, but I ended up getting this great shot of a street preacher in downtown Kansas City, Missouri. That practically erased my fear of going out and doing that. Also, having a huge lens (70-300mm) might help at first, as you don't need to be right up on someone.

I just walk around with my camera on it's tripod.. then when you get a good situation you're already ready to hit the shutter. Having a tripod also helps because people realize you're actually there TO take photos.. not just of them. Another good tip is to make it look like you're just flicking through photos.. hold your camera slightly lower than usual and with a grip like you're using the face buttons. I like getting long exposures of crowds, people tend to create a gap in front of where you're shooting which ruins the shot.. for there I'll set my camera up and wait around 30 seconds before taking my photo.. that way the crowd will be sick of your s**t and just start walking in front of you.. which is actually what you want hahaha
@weused2bestoned10 жыл бұрын
also just ask people if the shot doesn't require them not noticing you.. people dont mind posing for a photo if you ask them.. try it at a festival to build up confidence, people at festivals wear fancy dress and stuff and expect photos so when you simply say "hey, can I take a photo of you?" they dont mind.. I found a guy at a festival this year with loads of TMNT comic tattoos on his arm, they looked amazing so I asked him if I was ok to get a pic.. he took his top off and he was covered in them.. much better than a crafty picture from the side.

no1 tip.. don't be scared of people. They're just people. Wost case is they will have a go at you.. if they do just keep taking photos, what better for emotion? if you use a really fast shutter speed you could probably get a nice one of a fist coming towards you. I guess if you have the balls be cheeky and just take whatever, 10 seconds later you'll be gone and they'll have forgotten all about it. if you're scared then head to a 1st floor cafe and take photos out of the window.

it's mostly just to indicate to people that you're there for a reason and not to just take weird photos of them. it's always good to have a tripod at hand anyway. the camera being on a stand just shows people you're not a threat,i keep the legs up and hold it around halfway down so I get a steady aim when taking photos.. it's a good method for recording video when you're walking too. hold it loose so as you move it has a more natural sway.,ill shut up anyway, we're not talking about video.
@JeremyGalloway8 жыл бұрын
I agree with this. If you plop down a tripod, you can just wait a while and snap photos of people as they walk by. If you don't move around a lot, people will just assume you're filming video or a time lapse or something and won't try to walk out of the way, whereas if you shoot handheld, they're much more likely to feel that they are the focus of the image.

Plus I'd have to not do it with my wife around. I was down in Vegas for a weekend with her, and I considered trying some down there, but I never did because I kept thinking my wife would criticize me for doing it, saying it's weird of me to just take random people's photos. She doesn't like her photo randomly taken, so that sort of gets passed on in her criticism if I were to try it with other people. So, yeah... a few hurdles to jump if I were to ever do street photography.

Enjoyed the video...May be I am wrong but I think the best way is not to chimp as mentioned by Kai and not to look into the eyes of your subject, look thru the viewfinder !! In Street Photography usually its said the more smaller camera the more invisible you are to take your shots. But somehow I feel there are two ways to look at it, depending on the laws of the land eg: A) In a place like Mumbai, small camera could get you suspicious look or knocks on back and Street Photography is NOT a hurried job where you want to become invisible with a small camera and walk off. I always fail to understand this part of Street Photography about sticking to small cameras, ofcourse to each his own. B) If you carry a big camera you do attract more attention but people atleast know OK..this guy is doing some kind of photography..what kind, they wouldn't know, but definitely won't knock on your back. Street Photography is tough anyways but most satisfying when one gets a lovely shot. And I enjoy shooting in both Mumbai and Hong Kong. In Hong Kong, especially the Avenue of Stars strip and Mongkok.

I live in the UK and I've only had someone tell me off for it once, I just ignored them and disappeared into the crowd, best way to deal with a situation like that I reckon

I don't do a lot of street but when I do I mostly go for large crowd shots. No one complains about being in those.
