Night Photography in Tokyo on the GR IIIx

[@filmfauxtos]

3:56 is phenomenal. The geometry!

[@Torontoflatlander]

My favorite shot of the set. Tokyo was such a blast to photograph when I was there last year.

[@teocrawford]

Whaaa so fun to see you roaming Tokyo✨✨✨

[@clonkex]

10:35 wow 11:38 also wow, you captured that gritty cyberpunk vibe so perfectly with the photos and music, I love it!

[@marcelw.6317]

Music fits perfectly for this night walk stuff 3:29

[@polgzz]

I agree! (It reminds me very much about interstellar's BSO, by the way)

[@alfabravo80]

Probably the most accomplished photo walk I’ve seen from you. Excellent work!

[@jimschmidt7303]

Like so many other people who commented, Faizel, you are an excellent photographer and videographer. The combination of the city sounds, the colors, light & shadows, and the sound track! SPOT ON! You are my favorite youtuber.

[@susieq5122]

Oh my gosh, SO fun. You’re an amazing film maker. Are you just in love with Tokyo? It’s a photographers dream. Great work Faizal. Really great work.

[@Novak596]

The colour grading, the bangers, the music, Faizal… you really are good at what you do man👌

[@MaartenSFS]

Glad to see that you still use the Ricoh. It fits perfectly with your POV style and the files are so easy to edit. And that lens…

[@j.zuberi]

Probably my fav series of scenes from you so far. Great work man. Makes me really miss living in Japan.

[@AlasdairSun]

Such a great video, love the aesthetic and music all really works. I’m just back from Japan and watching this makes me miss it so much. Cannot wait to return.

[@TungstenOvergaard]

I bought in 2020 the X100V (well before Tik Tok and cool kids did!) and at that time I hated, for no reason, the Ricoh GR. I though it was way behind X100s. I sold my X100V in early 2021 (very boring at the end) for an XT3, in a year I went for an XT5, and I was very happy, best decision ever. But I still needed a truly pocketable camera and finally I got my Ricoh GR III HDF. Amongst others, because of you. Well… I’M IN LOVE with it!!!

[@SilatShooter]

Love Tokyo, so enjoyed watching this. The GR really is a great choice for this environment. Really see the benefits in this video. Thanks for sharing!

[@jessehebert8082]

What a tease with the flash at the end! Great work all throughout👏

[@daslab38]

I can't wait to see what the flash brings! Great cliffhanger for photographers ...

[@chocomusette]

Cant wait for the next one ❤

[@_krakra_]

Was 40mm working for you or you would want to have 28?

[@stephenalkire590]

Incredible work, Faizal! These are my favorite videos you do.

[@wpickle]

Some of these are quite exceptional!

[@joaodias3014]

Great work!! Can't wait for the next video!

[@harrylew]

Talk about a target-rich environment! Banger of a night, indeed!

[@SEKunkle]

The exact phrase I had in mind. I agree about the "Banger" but wow, so many terrific shots. You have a great eye.

[@Maxhuertas]

Great video! I loved the music

[@vstone4628]

Luv your perspective! Hypnotic sound track. Just miss your commentary as it is so insightful. Still very inspirational.

[@KillerTacos54]

Fantastic video Faizal, as always!

[@mrpurple33]

Bladerunner vibes! Love it.

[@Itchban]

Was a fun night bro! Hope to see ya in Osaka

[@koserrist770]

looks like different world. Amazing!!!

[@sae73xn63]

What a great video, the shots the composition everything was perfect. Looking for more of japan by your lenses 😍

[@gr3866]

Hey Faizel, may I ask where you get your music from? Love the vibe and richness of the chosen soundtracks underneath the video.

[@sstarr1310]

Excellent work. Faisal’s version of the”Midnight Diner”!

[@iainolivier7960]

Beautiful video, as per usual Mr Westcott :) soundtrack was 👌

[@ohaakash]

finally the wait is over. i just love your art! btw, which camera are you using to capture the pov, and that too at the night?

[@ohaakash]

and, omg the choice of background music, just WOW

[@adriensanguinetti]

Very interesting to see your perspective on Tokyo, keep up the good work 👍🏻

[@randyandreas2744]

I'm curious about your night street flash photos! looking forward for the next video

[@DevanGoodwin]

This was quite an experience as someone who doesn’t live or travel anywhere like that. Great video and some great shots in there as well.

[@dperry90277]

thank you for taking me with you!

[@oliverbiggsphotography]

This was fantastic! Are you still using a GoPro and chest mount for POV stuff? It looks super smooth!

[@HenrikWilhelmsson]

Arriving in Tokyo this tuesday. So looking forward to going out with my camera.

[@belaacs5238]

Your best one, so far.

[@OldBoothy]

Hey man, long time follower, first time poster. Really loved the combination of video, photos and music in this video. Keep it up.

[@danielarevalo8218]

I think this photos felt more personal, amazing shots man :)

[@rosshaxton8912]

Love it, I really want to go there! ❤

[@fletchlives66]

Nice work, what camera and filter did you use for video? 👍

[@VitorDiGranja]

Loved this episode, tokyo seems such a vibrant city! Taking notes because im going to there this october😁 PS :which camera you used to film the pov? dji osmo pocket 3? Love your channel bro!Very inspirational for me!

[@Kyle-wb7wx]

What a great video! This place is a photographers dream! One day I'll go, even if I do have a shellfish alergey :(

[@EnjoiRom1]

3:25, have you tried one with the focus on the edge of the door ?

[@dopebeats6087]

Beautiful shots. Its funny that people complaining about low night photography with thr Ricoh. Im interesting with AF setting you used on this night journey?

[@xsouxz]

I don't see many of Faizal's night photos, so this one was fresh and interesting. Is it difficult to take photos in Tokyo because there are so many people?

[@luisbenito3602]

Wonderful view of Shimbashi.

[@chrishuang7655]

Hope that there will be more videos in Japan ❤

[@jackckwitch3145]

im still needing a first camera and was wondering if the Ricoh GR iiix is a good option. I have looked into the regular iiix and the iiix HDF. I love the lool that the HDF produces but is it worth the extra money?

[@nadia_salima]

I love the world through your eyes

[@Acaulis]

Do you shoot in auto white balance? Loving the Tokyo videos!

[@DinovanderMerwe]

I'm also keen to know what @faizal uses to review his POV video? GoPro?

[@michaelhall859]

Pretty sure he uses a Pocket 3

[@DinovanderMerwe]

@@michaelhall859okay cool thanks, came out so clear that's why I was curious

[@tjcuneo]

Enjoyed the video and it brought back fond memories of spending time in Tokyo. I would have liked more commentary from you as it would have helped keep me more engaged with the content. Thanks.

[@charleszapataproductions]

Superb brooo! Miss shooting with GR3 👏🏽🙌🏽

[@Kogh_Art]

Thank You! I really enjoyed !

[@vikreads]

Ur my goat fr

[@dt-classics]

All photographers, I follow, here on YT together in 1 video! That´s a nice thing... ;-)

[@DirkMenker]

What did you use to film the pov video? Looks very clean!

[@rawvoltairephoto]

One day I'm also going to go out at night to do street photography. I thought your work was amazing 👌👍

[@beatrizkj]

Nice video! Very well made

[@SurajBoddu]

holy smokes i think faizal peaked

[@jazung]

Thanks bro, I'm inspired!

[@shotbychrisc]

Is all the POV stuff shot on the osmo pocket or Lumix?

[@diforbes]

What were some of your settings for shooting handheld at night there? Thanks.

[@TedPartrick]

Going to the movies in a great video: story, images, music

[@megun03]

Hello, I always enjoy watching your videos. I want to buy your preset, but when I go into the link, I can't see the purchase button. Where can I buy your preset?

[@mike_pb]

what is your preferred shutter speed when you're out shooting like this?

[@leeds-yoga9265]

Enjoyable, but Liam Wong rules the roost!

[@primefocusphotography]

Awesome shots man. Can't wait for my Japan trip in 2025. 🍻

[@nguyea09]

this felt like a fever dream living in real-time in someone else's memory like in a sci-fi movie

[@parambrata2255]

thanks for inspiring me again

[@acidpolly]

hi Faizal and thank you for all your beautiful videos! I have a question that I cannot find any good answers to - how do people take photos if they have imperfect eyesight and have to wear glasses? I noticed that you do wear glasses sometimes and sometimes don't and you mostly look at your screen while shooting, not through the viewfinder. being prescribed glasses for astigmatism just recently I feel completely lost. like, in glasses things are sharp at the distance but the screen is a semi-blur... help! 🙏

[@rawkista]

Hey Faizal. Whats the camera youre using on your chest?

[@PeterArnold1969]

I still find it amazing that there are more people living in Tokyo than in my entire country of Australia.

[@dan.hampton]

That soundtrack is just so sinister.

[@geneyoon11]

the ricoh is undefeated

[@tiredeyes_photography]

yea man! I miss your wide angle shot.

[@TonyEbikemeJr]

that was pretty damn cool.

[@bigshug2374]

So, if there was ever a reason to go to Tokyo it was watching that film. I think I would run out of batteries and so cards. It was like watching Blade Runner. P.S. Did that Roman Fox guy take any photos or was he there to keep you company?

[@mesh2325]

What part of Tokyo is this? Which station?

[@Rewsky21]

That was damn good 👍👍👍

[@yulbdv]

amazing😮

[@GandC77]

You are going to visit 大阪 and 京都, right? 関西にも遊びに来てください!!

[@RS-Amsterdam]

10 out of 10 for photography, video, music and editing. Well done 🎉 A bit to good hehe 😂

[@siliov89]

Great video! Can you ID the music too?

[@rafizp]

0:10 what's the name of the font??

[@hectorrios8530]

Eren and Roman!? You gotta make a podcast or a big cross-over episode. The scene vs the final image or somethingl ike that.

[@KentFleshman]

It has to be so overwhelming to shoot there. So much to look at.

[@ahmetceran00]

Haha Eren is the perfect guide for Tokyo street photography on Ricoh GR iii

[@mr_mr]

8:29 ❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥

[@LucKerklaan]

Great video

[@AlexanderYap]

Just curious if you received a lot of bad looks, or worse, from the people you photographed. I am asking because I will be visiting Tokyo for the first time soon.

[@jean-pierrebuttet9438]

Waouh !!✌

[@lepessotlouis1058]

Song title ??

[@AlexOnStreets]

👏👏

[@mugcarnivore2493]

I feel the iiix is more noisy than the iii. No ?

[@olivertrees]

tuff!
