I Like how no one has a problem with being photographed.... in switzerland when they see you walking around with a camera, they already want to sue you :')

[@ulyssebinggeli806]

hey, living in zurich and i'm totally agreeing with you:) people stare at me as if they're literally going to smash my camera at the ground or so

[@Raim0nd]

Uhmm, don’t know about Switzerland but in most countries it’s not forbidden to take photographs of people on the streets as long as they’re not underage. I’m sure there are some more scenarios where you are not allowed to take a photo of them but as long as you’re not following them it should be alright. And yea it’s just best not to be a dick about it if someone asks you to not take a picture of them 😁

[@fsknikolai635]

In Australia you are legally allowed to photograph anyone in a public space as long as you are not using the photo for commercial use. It’s pretty good if you want to do street photography here in Australia and also I feel bad that people want to sue you over wanting to explore and photograph daily life

[@formerlybernard6460]

@@fsknikolai635 SAME AS UK AND USA. GERMANY HAS SERIOUS RESTRICTIONS THOUGH.

[@swiftlemur7853]

@@fsknikolai635 thanks I thought taking pictures in Australia was against the law, I’m taking street photography too

[@Lephz]

I like the way you sneak photos of people, act as if you're turning around for a shot of the street then just kinda follow them with the camera to get the perfect walking shot.

[@lachiealexander3522]

I live in Melbourne and it goes to show how dead it is when mike can check his photos in the middle of the road

[@applejuice609]

I just had my first paid car photoshoot yesterday! I just wanna say thank you for inspiring me to pursue my dream of becoming a car photographer :)

[@FazedInferno]

Have an Instagram? I'd love to check your photos out and drop a follow!

[@2DAKE2]

Commenting to see if they drop their insta lol

[@x9darkknight]

commenting as well to see their insta

[@itslimits1]

Waiting for the insta

[@Meow34678]

congrats dude!!

[@adamchrismartin]

The way you effortlessly capture amazing photos really makes me feel like an amateur running about with a webcam

[@hafchicken5836]

I've been enjoying these videos of yours more than others because you actually put the aperture, iso, and shutter speed your using with each picture. For a beginner photographer this really helps get an idea of which numbers they can work with. Keep posting these and I'll keep giving my thumbs up mate!

[@artemk.420]

Most iconic part about Northborders isn't his photos, isn't his intro, isn't his humor. It's his yellow jacket.

[@herbalgiles9468]

* Melbourne fixes lanterns * Mike: ngl this dark alleyway looks pretty sick

[@imjusttoby1]

These POV videos is so chill to watch man, please do more 🔥

[@harrybottmtb8947]

Been waiting for this

[@saftymod]

mate, your edits are bangers. I love that high contrast, deep blues, deep saturation look on moody pictures.

[@diogorodrigues5627]

This is the type of video that I wouldn't mind to watch when I'm bored, it's truly relaxing.

[@alanhall5648]

Great video Mike just shows how devastating this virus is . Please stay safe mate stunning shots as always. 🇬🇧

[@ryanyong1235]

I really like this POV Photography series! And thanks for providing the information (iso, shutterspeed, aperture) of all the pictures that you had taken!

[@wizard_outdoors_]

People out there seem so friendly!!! My area is okay for walking up to people, i should be getting out more to do that !

[@depthsofthelost8774]

Dude I love your pic photography. It's just so chill and fun. Keep it up man.

[@eliaswambugu6719]

Wassup, love your content.

[@barnabasnick2238]

Keep up this awesome work mate! U inspire me so much! Thank you for that! Cheers from Hungary, Budapest!

[@karanupadhyay1789]

Love these PoV videos! You're an inspiration.

[@nwcmotorised]

your videos are so inspirational and just so chill

[@EasyTigerCreative]

Time to relax with some nice POV photography of yours! 🤘

[@Taz66]

People recognizing you in the streets...damn I got to start doing POV videos again. Absolute legend for real!

[@princessvirtudes3862]

Finally you post a new POV. I can't wait to watch this lit street photography.

[@MintStandard]

Hey bud! You can actually zoom in to get the right focus when using a manual lens such as this and shooting in RAW, go into your settings, go to section one of photos, then sub section 13, the setting is Focus Magnifier.

[@Provolt]

I feel like it's a good thing to practice manual even though for photos autofocus is king

[@garlicbreadbeans]

How bout always manual

[@ernestotorres7672]

Jazz. Nah

[@vikrantneelmani02vikrantne82]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/rJuYfGaloJeDd5I

[@try1269]

But has limit than the manual one 🤔

[@JPerry-jw9ik]

AF is just lazy. Manual reigns supreme!

[@Donderlab]

Yay glad you managed to get out and shoot, keep trucking through the lockdown 👍

[@amirayoub5273]

I just love these videos man, these are super fun to watch, its like having a therapy🤯❤

[@JacoubKhouri]

Dude sick video also you can totally zoom in to check your focus you just have to go in the menu and set one of the function keys to zoom magnification, all I do is shoot manual old lenses on my sony camera

[@akarshedits9199]

An umbrella always reminds me you chasing a man with one. Definitely my favorite from your POV videos.

[@Will-ut7ru]

yes,Indonesia is also in lockdown again

[@NorthBorders]

sucks man, hopefully will be over soon.

[@ahmedmike1772]

Masyarakatnya goblok sih

[@KillerTacos54]

Thanks for putting the disclaimer at the beginning. It’s such a small thing but it goes a long way

[@nkprieto85]

Hi mate! You can easily assign a custom button to "Focus Magnify". That, combined with focus peaking, makes focusing manual lenses a feasible process. I assigned a Fn Menu spot to control the Focus Peaking intensity. Hope it helps you! I use this technique even shooting stationary portraits and it works!

[@fcurcic]

you can assign a custom button to zoom in for manual focus it doesnt happen automatically with this lens because it doesnt have electrical contacts

[@KylerSteele]

Rainy street photography is so much greater than a dry day

[@bloccboy9431]

When your taken out of your comfort zone that's when you preform the best great video and pics

[@yunglogical6398]

“Hey how’s it goin, hope you havin a shit one!”😊 Heartwarming words to any photographer

[@brunomiranda4190]

11:02 - That sound is Aquaman speaking with fishs. lol - Great video man!

[@bruno_mcd]

This is what amazes me in this world. Stage 4 lockdown in Melbourne... In the meanwhile here in Europe, everybody was scared to sh*t at first, and now many pretend it doesn't even exist anymore (at least around the Nürburgring). Gladly, we have great health systems, but it would definitely help with that type of system. Great video Mike!

[@MisticKreation]

You know what? I bought my Sony alpha and 85mm because of those POV photography videos you make! Thank you for inspiration Buddy! Greetings from Poland!

[@ricardobode14]

Dude you killed it. Nice Film. I‘m using an analog 28mm f 2.8 adapted on my a7ii atm. It isn’t as sharp as my Sony lenses, but it’s fun to shot with. Keep going and have nice one

[@MrDomq22]

The foggy-ness of the POV cam reminds me of an anamorphic effect. I’d love to see some night, anamorphic street photos of an environment like this.

[@DLivingston]

Loved the sweeper shots

[@ananyabalaji7178]

i have been waiting for this so so eagerly !!! love your content

[@Tk.Wander]

lmao @16:14 trying to be so sneaky and pretending to set up a different shot when your main subject was that guy walking. I do it all the time XD

[@annabellef2062]

freaking love your pov videos

[@The-brave.]

I really enjoyed and took a few ideas for my next street photography walk✌🏻✌🏻 keep going man.

[@TheCheesemonkeys1]

Love the POV videos so much! so relaxing to watch

[@ParkerDV]

Love this! Feels like we’re taking photos with you!

[@gyrd5.653]

have been waiting this one!

[@bananabread4234]

Good shit dude! I know how hard it is to manual focus when doing street photography. It’s fucking hard!

[@tomwhyte]

Mike, have you ever been told off when doing street photography for taking pictures of people etc?

[@swiftlemur7853]

Your allowed to take pictures of people in Australia, expect if it’s for commercial use. Then you’ll get told off

[@tomwhyte]

@@swiftlemur7853 yeah same here just I meant people getting annoyed that you’re taking their photo

[@swiftlemur7853]

@@tomwhyte I think they’ll just walk away :)

[@aftersolstice]

Literally love these pov videos!!

[@aminecastro932]

You're such an inspiration man, keep on going.

[@Ndnlo0711]

I literally zoned out and watched the whole fkn video I was literally entranced 😂 great vid mate

[@shmelda]

asmr vibes, good stuff homie

[@onedead7607]

12:20 Your zoom rocker is thinking you're trying to do a digital zoom. I change one of the buttons to magnify when I'm using a manual lens.

[@KataM1224]

I just discover your chanel. Just... Wow... Thank you for your work.

[@recasamedia6266]

Thanks Bro! pls continue to use your photo camera settings as I find it useful !

[@gabrielconstantinodasilvab7393]

Beatiful!! Excellent job 👏🏾👏🏾

[@isaacbingley]

The motorbike and shadow at 7:20 would have been a sick photo

[@namgyal2442]

So fun to watch photography outside...

[@HakimieAnuar]

Should have renamed this “POV Night Photography but everything is out of focus

[@nikmiddelman]

I'm always interested in how u handle with reactions, are you not shy? what if someone doesn't want to be photographed. what if they get rude? can you tell us more about that?

[@francis7181]

Yo your friends with Pierre, 🤯I was just watching him no idea you guys were friends

[@aminecastro932]

Me too😂😂😂

[@sharansrivatsa210]

I realized they were friends when pierre calls Mike and Liam during one of his videos.

[@furky_m]

Try to turn on Fucus Magnifier next time! This way when you start moving the focus ring you'll have 5x zoom on your subject for a couple of seconds :)

[@pixel_overkill]

Yes! Exactly lol i'm hoping he sees these comments.

[@furky_m]

@@pixel_overkill At some point he did say that it usually magnifies but apparently not with this lens...

[@DayNoodler]

Since you like Trolley's so much (you call them trams), you should google "Pennsylvania Trolley Graveyard" and check out a guys collection of old rusted trolley's chilling in the woods!

[@2DAKE2]

That place is amazing

[@DayNoodler]

2DAKE2 it seriously is, I’m trying to wait until fall kicks in a little more and take my crappy Nikon down there. Perks of living only a few miles away!

[@sotiify9221]

excited to watch the whole thing! its 4 am and i have school tmr what am i doing

[@peejhaypastor716]

Stay safe as always mike 🤗

[@jollyammajohn7418]

Your the best mate🤩🤩 Love these kind of videos✌️

[@stevealder-goad2756]

It's nice to be able to see the city, even if we can't see the city :( Thanks for sharing

[@dawg234]

U should make books with a ton of photos in them with a theme and sell them. I would actually buy one. Excellent video btw 👌

[@neklamp2431]

Very nice photos!!!!!

[@ShyEdits]

Really really liked this kind of video.

[@adrianbr4585]

You should go out one of these days taking pictures with only a polaroid !

[@Dragan972]

i only shoot with manual lenses, often do some racing photography with the tamron adaptall 2, 300mm f2.8 107b model, the bokeh that this monster produce is incredible. i really hope that i can make you try it one day, specially for night rainy shots 😃 cheers from italy bro

[@HoldEmOne]

we had lockdown in march for a month or so. Been living normal life with no major lockdown restrictions in my country since April, I don't understand how Australia still has so annoying restrictions.

[@flaviorenatocorretordeimov5065]

Very nice 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 love photograph wonder art 💕💕💕

[@Tank23333]

On my a6100 i can set a button to activate focus zoom That could help focusing

[@pixel_overkill]

Yup. "Focus Magnifier" Works amazing to fix that issue. Great for Macro work too.

[@yugenn11]

alternate title: Curly haird dude in bright jacket shoots people with a mask on

[@madsjohannessen4089]

love your pov videos

[@marcranger4596]

Check ebay. You can get camera rain coats that also protect the lens. They cost almost nothing

[@gaelzaragoza9294]

Amazing photos😻

[@majeston]

we need some more of these types of vids 🔥

The Bokeh on this len is a killer dude, wtf. Great vid mike

[@blacksento6656]

Very nice man I appreciate that’s video. You shot like pic nice 👍

[@sietsebrouwer3627]

Hey man! Love the content! Could you maybe do a video on your favorite lenses? Like you favorite lens for street photography, car photography, portraits, landscape pictures. I bought a sony a7 ii and i really could use some advice on what lenses to get.

[@leemaclean1177]

Wouldn't be Mike's video without a tram picture

[@DSebbel82]

very nice shots

[@OkGonzo]

Dope video as alwaysn

[@DecafTrap]

Don’t lie, you didn’t walk into a door. Let’s see the other guy 😉

[@captasin7991]

It’s very soft wide open, so maybe bump the aperture 2 stops since that’s when the lens is sharpest

[@rogerescobido]

love these pov's
