I suggest to use something that's unusual for street photography like 100-400mm. I wonder what shots you could get with it.

[@damianwojcikiewicz3951]

Good idea

[@justduit1879]

8:45 daaamn, this is a legendary photo dude😍🥵

[@crainseye8499]

When I first got into photography, videos featuring minimal setups and/or cheap cameras were everything to me! After all, if pro photographers could get incredible shots on those then I knew it was possible to get some on my measly starter camera. Still love videos like that today, so do more of those :)

[@KurokyuuketsukiD59]

Those pictures at the food stand are incredible ! Love the vibes. I feel so honoured my picture caught your eye on Instagram (my reflection on the train), I am still a beginner hobbyist and not fully comfortable with posting pictures online

[@Opticalwander]

Thank you 🙏 It was great shot !!

[@fraterlajos]

Great video and superior pictures again! Thanks for not using the 360 camera! So much more enjoyable in this old school way! I really love to watch these videos. Love to see how different focal lengths work on the streets! 35mm looks the king of the street-photography.

[@chaput9178]

A classic Nikon F 35mm grainy Ilford Delta 3200 film!

[@Postbus22]

Can you do a preperation video on how to shoot in rainy weather? Like how to make the camera waterresistant on the cheap

[@sharlexzero8897]

I love the rain!! challege with an instant camera?

[@infamousmp4]

I swear some of these people seem like paid actors lmao, georgous shots mate

[@marcoesposito8875]

great video for a heavy study session break 🙏🏻❤️ I’m curious about how you customized the buttons and dials on your sony, will you ever make a video about that?❤

[@adampetrovic1196]

Great video as always. Could you do a video of your A7 IV settings / button customizations?

[@ggwildlife]

That was an incredible episode and the POV was banging absolutely banging mate, thanks for sharing.

[@Opticalwander]

Thank you 🙏

[@paulchearman6261]

Got some cracking images there

[@_SternRitter_]

your content is AWESOME dude

[@SkYjAcKeR666]

Way way better than that 360 stuff, cracking photos too.

[@SimonWestPhotography]

I love photographing in the rain or in between the showers! Great videos Sam!

[@ubermolen3923]

Really enjoyed this video!

[@2020Viision]

Yes mate! These shots are siiiick!!! Looked like a good shoot. Edits are on point.

[@spilexee5254]

Hey quick video idea. You could perhaps make a video about picture profiles and which ones you use.

[@BrynPrice]

Great examples of the wonderful shots you can get on a rainy night - hope to bump into you on the streets of Sydney soon

[@dingbat19]

FYI the Sigma 35mm f2 for Sony FE mount is affordable, built out of metal like a tank, and has a wonderful characterful rendition. It's much smaller and lighter than f1.4 models - give it a try if you are looking for a 35

[@sloop24]

I would love to see you try using a t3i. I have had terrible experience in low light but maybe the right lense would help. And it's a camera that a lot people used to start with

[@alanhall5648]

Sick video Sam 🔥🔥🇬🇧

[@MisAnkic]

Amazing!

[@ken_li5622]

8:48 it's was so cool🥴

[@deflemonkid]

How about throwing some vintage glass on your a74. I've got a Helios-44 58mm that's got a unique aesthetic that would be really interesting to you use in some of these night Street photography vids

[@tiagosf5749]

Bro loving the daily uploads! Could you try the new SIGMA 18-50 mm for Fuji X (if not then Sony) would love to hear your thoughts! Keep it up bro

[@TomatenDK]

Love your streets videos and your posting of the settings !! Maybe try a 50mm lens ? Not a GM - thats a little unrealistic for amateurs. I always hear that the 50 is perfect for street, but never see any vids of it. Thats a lens you might consider among the other suggestions ppl hopefuly come up with.

[@paulb8554]

Pic from 8:54 is absolutely Banger !!!!Thats the style of POV I like !!!! keep on goin Mate !!!

[@Opticalwander]

Definitely one of my favourites I’ve taken 🙏

[@fricken99]

I don’t find Sydney or Melbourne cbds at picturesque but you did a great job

[@Chrisp_]

Awesome video as always, any update on who won the Nikon camera?

[@PaulEnoch]

love me some rain povs

[@HurleyDeanSandpoint]

Wow! Very nice work. I too love to shoot at night in the rain. Problem is I don't have a lot of subject matter living in a small town in North Idaho. But you have inspired me to go out and do better. Thank You. Hurley Dean, Sandpoint, Idaho USA.

[@damianwojcikiewicz3951]

I love you Opti! Can you make a POV iPhone Street Photography 1 hour before and after effect?

[@snakensfuck]

your educational POV is good for sparking some creativity as mine has turned to farts lately

[@briannicholson2971]

Nice one Sam......feels weird for me as I was on my first ever street photography meet up in Edinburgh and totally out my comfort zone but most enjoyable, it was raining also and I used the wet ground and puddles 😊, I got an image at 70mm in a shop and when I cropped in could not believe what I got...I will send it in to you for a edit , cheers 😊

[@virtualrelaxing5155]

Nice video, you can do macro pov in the city 😊

[@filipstih2756]

you could try using a canon lens on your a7iv, with the converter, see how that looks

[@zagika]

It would be great to do a POV with an old digicam.

[@ricardolee2397]

OH，feel so good

[@jesswildthing]

Great POV! Go pro footage looked heaps better!

[@acmdv]

Looks like you brought the British weather with you 😁

[@T-Prime848]

Black and white POV with the IPhone 4 you bought

[@thesa8070]

I am currently running a canon eos 1500d as my first camera body with a 50mm f1.8 and would love to see what results you get with this setup

[@nipponpaint9343]

i have sony a7ii with a 85mm sony f1.8, i would like to see how you would shoot with it and see how i can improve with my own set up from ur pov

[@medelwaid]

Great POV ! Can you make a pov with sony a6000 😁😁

[@marcinsypniewski583]

u can try old Fujifilm X-T1, Sigma 56mm 1.4

[@Itomeri_real]

Hey much love

[@jc123_3]

do you use colour profiles on the camera?

[@leny9985]

MANS GOTA EAT ? OSOM !

[@TheFreshSnow]

I shoot with a Sony rx100 mk7. Would be fun to see how you use one!

[@axelkjellberg8682]

How are you able to get 2 or 3 people tac sharp using 1.8. When I use it I tend to get one really sharp one eh sharp. What focus mode do you use?

[@projectb3117]

Do you film and record siund with gopro 8?

[@bernisart]

What audio setup do you use while recording povs? It's just clean.

[@Opticalwander]

It’s just the GoPro audio 🙏🙏

[@Pinball024]

What about using a Canon EOS 90D?

[@Ukfisheye]

Canon R10

[@Axel-xl2vh]

Can you do a Street Photography with a regular Iphone 13 (not the pro)

[@anapippen5554]

Try to shoot with a Kodak Pixpro camera

[@romeobns8897]

I wanna go shoot now thank you🙏🙏

[@jasontai9901]

Is it a7r4?

[@hopemarchand]

Dude how did you edit those photos that from 8:54? Absolutely legit!

[@Opticalwander]

Thank you 🙏

[@chingymofo1]

Awesome vid as usual. Are you using 35mm because Mike Chudley called all of us out for using 85mm? 😂 I've been wanting a 35mm for ages because of his photos and some portrait photographers that use 35mm. My 24-70 will deliver that 35mm length for now I guess

[@Opticalwander]

Not at all, Mike has a good point but he’s not completely right. If used correctly it’s a great lens. It’s more about me getting different frames with different gear etc. however I do want a X100V because of him!

[@chingymofo1]

@@Opticalwander that definitely was sarcasm haha but no I totally agree with you! I feel like there shouldn’t be any rules for any niche in photography, but I do think there’s different genres of Street Photography, I feel like Mike and many others do a sort of ‘Fine Art’ style but you and say Northborders does cinematic. I love how both looks so I take a lot of this with a grain of salt. And I too want a an X100V!

[@wrk.world.]

Try canon 2000d

[@RolandKaufmann]

Make a POV taking photos with an iPad 😜. For all the boomers out there!

[@theblackdeath83]

Can you make a pov when you're only shooting and showing jpegs?

[@Opticalwander]

For sure 🙏

[@stewartstewartstewart]

It’s not called POV photography. It is and always has been called either Reportage or Street Photography, not POV 🤦🏻‍♂️
