japan is a vibe

[@hanzandfranz5337]

I've tried doing street photography in Honolulu but every time I have tried some guy who is usually high comes up and starts screaming at me, or tries to steal my camera.

[@aquaticlibrary]

lol that happened to me in Vancouver

[@mahidharnaraharisetty4212]

@@aquaticlibraryain’t no way me too 💀

[@Skylda]

yes, just dont film other people. iam from germany and here its forbidden to film or make pics from other people. if you do so, you get 2 things, the police, or a punch in your face.

[@Tebanisomura]

What???

[@dedearyapratama4232]

yeah privacy is more important ​@@Skylda

[@TeeNorbu]

Street photography is just a joy to watch that’s why I myself do street photography. It feels like you are in a different world where you are invisible. Anyway, I love the shots. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to seeing more.

[@dumspyrospero]

So relaxing to watch! Keep taking beautiful photos!

[@adriensanguinetti]

Thanks :)

[@AlDarweesh]

Okinawa is such a different vibe. Crazy to see how many more cars there are there compared to a megacity like Tokyo. It is definitely not as hectic though. Keep it up!

[@adriensanguinetti]

It really is! Thanks for the comment :)

[@hanzandfranz5337]

I love the low light photos in the alleyways. gives off a really nice vibe that differs pretty heavily from the sunny street shots.

[@constructivecriticism1011]

What a beautiful melancholy vide. 👏

[@Iamzota]

Awesome video. I can watch this all day.

[@autoframed]

Love this ! Japan really is something else for street photography :D

[@adriensanguinetti]

Thanks! Yes it is fantastic here :)

[@planetbell1]

Great Shots all around. I like the boy about the 4 min mark drinking the rain!

[@adriensanguinetti]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@bryanwendland235]

2:25 was such a great shot. Love when the unexpected ones turn out great

[@hurst_luke]

Watching this video makes me want to go back to Japan and spend more time taking it all in. It was a sensory overload and an unforgettable experience

[@esseisee309]

fall in love with japan because of your amazing videos

[@Passingmomentsvideo]

Always look forward to your videos! Lovely work.

[@adriensanguinetti]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@raulquinones-rosado3332]

Nice!! I took my bulky Sigma 28-70mm with me to Spain this past Spring, but picked up the tiny Samyang 35mm for my Sony a7iv in Madrid. Loved it! Still do. And love your work with the GRiii, all of what your're capturing in Japan. Great stuff! Keep at it.

[@adriensanguinetti]

Very nice! Thanks a lot :)

[@BuzzLightyear403]

Hi Adrien! Mastering the 35mm is difficult. Many of your photos are cropped. However, we learn a lot from this video. Thank you very much and I hope that one day you will publish a video about your camera set up for Hybrid shooting. 頑張って。

[@aquaticlibrary]

35mm is tons of fun once you understand the framing.

[@richietipene]

35mm is great for those small alley ways! Great job!

[@adriensanguinetti]

Yes! Thank you!

Hahahah, crazy. I lived in Okinawa for about 4 years. Nice to see familiar places (moved to Misawa Japan for 3 years after Okinawa).

[@excursioniamo]

Great photos Adrian, love your style. I never been there, but several time in Tokyo, I love that city. Super thanks for sharing. All the video has been shot just using the GoPro?

[@adriensanguinetti]

Thanks! Only the POV section was shot with a GoPro, otherwise it was on my A7IV

Do you ever put your photos online for download/ purchase? I absolutely love the photos at 12:13, 12:24 and 13:48!

[@adriensanguinetti]

Not really, maybe I should ^^'

[@FA1ALERR0R]

@@adriensanguinetti Might be worth considering, I would print them out or have them as wallpaper if you did!

[@damarucreative]

Nice bro 😍

[@adriensanguinetti]

Thanks 🔥

[@chopstix906]

Complete noob question: Your ISO, aperture and shutter speed seem to be different for each photo. How are you changing each setting so quickly as you walk down the street and determine what's best?

[@bencky8977]

Good question 😅 maybe automatic mode? 🤔

[@chopstix906]

@@bencky8977 I figured it was some automatic mode, probably very different settings that get changed based on the camera body/mode. Will have to experiment myself.

[@adriensanguinetti]

I am using Aperture priority mode so the settings are always changing automatically ;)

[@magnify_coffee]

I’m from Okinawa 🫶🏻😮‍💨🫶🏻😮‍💨

[@Krenerk]

Very cool video thanks for the post man :) I was wondering, the aperture/iso/shutter speed, do you change them manually or are you on automatic?

[@michaell5038]

Subscribed nice video

[@adriensanguinetti]

Thanks for the sub!

[@olegonkos]

at 14:41 The photo would have been better if there had been a police car in the foreground, which was a little earlier in the video.

[@adriensanguinetti]

Good point 👍🏻

[@waqaskhanofficial77]

your video recording gopro 11 camera 9:18

[@kevinstrike]

Any suggestion when being noticed by the subject? Thanks!

[@adriensanguinetti]

Either smile, show respect and use language or body language to make them fully understand that you took a photo. Or you can look at the screen or evf and pretend you are still taking a photo trying to show that they are not the subject but maybe something behind them is.

[@guy.g]

Hey there! Great work. Would you mind sharing your gopro settings for POV?

[@thavipatw9889]

not even mention about what kind of 35 is using

[@adriensanguinetti]

35mm Samyang f2.8

[@brumsy.official]

Hi Adrien, I will be travelling to Okinawa soon and i actually shoot my videos on the A7IV too ... but i have a bit of a dilemma. My only lens is a Tamron 28-75 G2 which in theory is fine for travel but I am thinking of selling it and buying a Sony 35mm f1.8 instead. It might be less versatile but it will be lighter, smaller, more stable and let more light in than the Tamron. Any thoughts on this? My second question would be your thoughts between Sony 35mm 1.8 vs Samyang 35 2.8 ? anyways kudos if you made it to the end of this comment and keep up the excellent work.

[@yung2049]

Lovin this! how to add shoot sound and display a photo in video?

[@jimtong]

Nice photos you got. I am planning a week there in second half of Nov. Which city is this? Is it easy ti drive around in the city/urban area?

[@mhba0712]

Brilliant ! May I know what's your pov equipment ? Is it gopro with chest amount?

[@user-jd9wo1qt5b]

Hello, I always wonder how can focus your lens so quickly when you’re pointing to the pedestrians, cuz I find it hard and be afraid to offend people when I try to focus my lens on them.

[@colanhanh6923]

Beautiful! What camera do you shoot with?

[@adriensanguinetti]

Sony a7iv ;)

[@julianism.]

hi sir! were you shooting on Aperture prio or manual?

[@julianism.]

excellent photos btw, i'm learning a lot by watching this.

[@adriensanguinetti]

Always aperture prio ;)

[@teekay989]

What’s the blue hour? I lived in Okinawa 62-63, graduated from Kubasaki HS

[@ericdong5292]

@_@ How do you switch settings so quickly? (ISO,Shutter,F-stop) and how do you know which one is best for the pictures you are trying to take? I am new to photography, I am also going to Japan in January and would love to be able to just have fun with it and enjoy walking around as you are!

[@adriensanguinetti]

I use the aperture priority mode which gives me the best solution to benefit from the automatic settings of the camera and decide the depth of field of my shots

[@ericdong5292]

@@adriensanguinetti Great! Thanks for the reply! ^_^

[@mahidharnaraharisetty4212]

⁠@@ericdong5292Here’s a question I have, whilst in aperture priority mode, how do you know which f stop to choose from?

Does this lens also fit on the Fujifilm x-s20?

I think it is not available for Fuji unfortunately

Yawn.

[@roygumpel8415]

great... another video of a kid with a camera walking around sticking his cameras in strangers faces. This not Photography that matters At All. I recommend you go to a library and look through the books of Photographer William Klein. Maybe his "Tokyo" book. It Should make you Think a bit more about what you are doing with cameras. Should.

[@naonaoYouTube-su2jz]

Are you willing to value the privacy of others? I don't think it is a good idea to take a picture of another person's face in passing and put it on KZbin.

[@Super01041994]

Do you use a mist filter?

[@adriensanguinetti]

No but added so bloom in for the video part

What camera??
