Night photography and settings.

[@albertcabbott]

risky question to post on the internet

[@albertusalexander3876]

Even your streetphotography is in another dimension 😂

[@patkay]

Haha you're too kind sir!

[@QKvox]

The light around Wynyard station of an afternoon is glorious

[@easywhitechocolate]

finally a Sydney photographer who does POV's!!!

[@BrianFung1234]

We need more of this!

[@patkay]

More to come! =)

[@KH77x]

Love this content, reminds me of Evan Raft's POV section, where he explains why he took a certain shot and how he edited them after. Pretty rad man!

[@patkay]

Oh I'll have to check some of those out! Thanks for watching!

[@theboringkaren]

I love that we get to see the area you shoot and what you end up capturing. You have a terrific eye!

[@patkay]

Thanks Karen! I appreciate the kind words =)

[@rvllvncnt]

this POV series 🔥 just so nice to see how those awesome shots were taken haha

[@patkay]

Haha glad you're digging it :)

[@michaelhall859]

Need to get back into the Sydney Street pov's mate... These were great

[@patrickcvengros1619]

great video, can’t wait for another😄also great to see Sydney streets after a while!

[@patkay]

Thanks so much for watching! More to come soon =)

[@stefanexplores]

Oh you're making this a series? Lucky us, because it's a great concept! Keep shooting and having fun, my dude :)

[@patkay]

Yeah, should be good! Thanks for watching!

[@davidxu8352]

Amazing shots

[@patkay]

Thanks man!

[@robow21]

Good job Pat! It’s good to watch some Aussie POV content.

[@madsloucher9803]

85mm is my favourite focal length!!

[@patkay]

It's great huh!

[@normanfung4004]

Gotta need to take a detour before heading home in the arvo. I find Sydney so un-inspiring sometimes and it's interesting seeing Sydney throu you. Definitely rekindled the curiosity

[@patkay]

I definitely don't see Sydney as inspiring all the time, it definitely takes me effort to get out there 😂 Sometimes it's worth it though!

[@AIrn6087]

Every shot you take, I’m just like WOW!! I really will try and do the weekly practice of each pattern!!! I want to learn to see these compositions to capture amazing images!! Really great stuff

[@TKNORTH]

Ayyy chilled vibes bro

[@patkay]

Hurry up and get yourself an action cam so we can have POV parties bro haha

[@everythingsharp]

interesting that you shoot everything wide open at f/1.4 do you usually shoot everything wide open??

[@jaredsegal6897]

Just getting into photography and this was very helpful just to get a glimpse of how you see/think about/ and take a shot. Thanks!

[@davidangdi2835]

This is great! By the way, if you don't mind me asking, what is the time of the day you did this street photography? The light and shadow compositions are amazing! Keep up the great work.

[@patkay]

sometime in the afternoon! maybe like 3? i can't remember to be honest haha

[@victorajayi9056]

I've never really thought of shooting landscape at 1.4. Interesting. Great video

[@patkay]

Thanks for watching! =)

[@swaraajxciv7675]

5:25 because Instagram 😂 You taught me a lot bro now I feel I have a good understanding all I need now is to practice practice and practice. Thank you 🙏🏻

[@lukaszgermaniuk]

Sony A7SIII 🔥🔥🔥

[@patkay]

🔥🔥🔥

[@Angushomemovies]

Great vid Pat! What do you use to film the POV angle??

[@patkay]

I used a GoPro Hero 9!

[@Angushomemovies]

@@patkay quality is soooo nice ✌️

[@ColtKirwan]

More a7siii photography content please. I'm curious how well the 12mp holds up pixel peeping wise. Your last video was great just missed like a 400% lightroom review!

[@timothyandrewkeng669]

In POV we get to hear an animated Pat 👌

[@Mr.julian]

Hectic shots man.

[@patkay]

Thanks dude!

[@marcvilatte2651]

Awesome video ! The screen flickers mulitple times every time you take a shot, is it your camera or were you in burst mode ?

[@patkay]

Yup, every time it flickers is me taking a shot!

[@jahanghadami]

great vid man. hopefully see an a7c pov vid soon ;)

[@patkay]

Heh heh, already got the idea lined up 😉

[@kunleelarit1138]

Next vid: camera setting tips!!

[@patkay]

Haha. Which settings? I explain them at the start of the video

[@sebeur17ify]

I feel like a lot of POV photographers are adopting the 85mm. I've been doing all my street photography (and POVs 😅) with it too 👍

[@pixienix]

wooow. I'm glad I found your channel! These are amazing shots 🔥

[@Tazman95]

Does pat usually shoot with the back monitor or just doing so for the POV?

[@PureNordicVibe]

Stylish POV Street video you made 👍😃Greetings from Norway🇳🇴

[@patrickco5098]

This is amazing!

[@patkay]

Thanks for watching =)

[@barancrakoglu3894]

Wait, you just uploaded this but I swear I have seen this video before. Anyways, love this content ^^.

[@patkay]

Haha yeah some of the POV content was in my last video! But this is the full version of it =)

[@demasrusli]

Haha my belly made an appearance! lol

[@patkay]

Hahah

[@masterrofl]

Would be nice to see how you edit photos. Great video and shots btw:)!

[@viraj4220]

Amazing video mate ❤❤❤🤘🏼

[@patkay]

Thanks yo!

[@peterland3447]

this is so inspiring!

[@louisejennings7439]

This was great!

[@DJAnamaly]

How is the shadow recovery on this camera especially since it’s low light capable? I’d like to know how edits highlights & shadow recovery? Enjoyed the POV

[@stevencurtisphotography]

Just stumbled on your channel - love the POV style. Could you include the EXIF information on the edited stills, please? Also, could you talk more about the focus modes you use? Thank you so much for the inspiration😀

[@patkay]

What specifically did you want to know about the focus modes?

[@stevencurtisphotography]

@@patkay What setting were you using - it seemed to be tracking a subject.

[@TheRachaelMuller]

loved this

[@aaronm8264]

Thanks!

[@odarrien]

This was really cool.

[@mrtony3729]

Just subbed! Amazing quality from a Gopro! Can you do a review on using the GoPro 9? So many reviewers claim it's too buggy to rely on as a vlogger camera for KZbin. Any glitches or crashes in your experience?

[@patkay]

Cheers for the sub! Unfortunately I don't think I'll be making one on the GoPro; that device isn't really the direction I want to head in with this channel. Happy to answer any questions about it though! RE crashing and glitches: None yet actually; it's been flawless so far. That being said, I *did* upgrade the firmware as soon as I got it?

[@lucasianiak]

pat god

[@AK_DRONEVIEW]

what are your camera settings for sony A7III, please? I hope to learn more Street photography skills from you. Many Thanks

[@edoardoballato545]

Nice video, congrats. Can I ask you your opinion on this 12 mp sensor for photography? I mean in which job situations would you be still confident using this camera for photography? Weddings? Local stores? Items for ecommerce? I would be very happy if you could reply my question. Thank you! Ps I already have watched your previous video on this vamera

[@patkay]

On a job I'd still use my A7RIV. But in a pinch the SIII is fantastic too. 12MP doesn't give a lot of wiggle room, so it really depends on your needs and shooting habits.

[@alainbadan9345]

I have the same approach, a fixed lens (at home the 135mm) and start, I've been doing it for a year and it's for me much better than with a zoom, you don't ask yourself questions about the focal length, you concentrate on the composition, the light, the aperture, the distance (it's already a lot) I've seen your settings, AF-C and spot flexible M, a good choice for me too. Was your day here a kind of training ?

[@Shipooka]

Hi! what type of autofocus are you using in this video?

[@filazekielcristobal6173]

While you're on Australia, do the photobattle with Hayden Pedersen and the rest of them bois :)

[@tiffanydeklerk3444]

Hi Pat, what focus mode are you using?

[@patkay]

Locking: Flexible spot =)

[@abuhuzaifaansari]

Great Great Great Video Sir 😍😍😍

[@not.johnsont]

Quick question, is it better to shoot in Raw or JPEG and Compressed or Uncompressed

[@patkay]

Raw compressed, always. Anything else is either too much or too little.

[@michaelking1585]

What is the camera used for photography

[@stevencurtisphotography]

Steven Curtis Steven Curtis 1 day ago @Pat Kay What setting were you using - it seemed to be tracking a subject.

[@osakadaiyoh]

There's no shame on staying longer and waiting patiently. I even spent longer observing before capturing. Because I know that I will always miss moments whether to linger or changing my spot.

[@qnfrhaify]

I have a question. If I take a photo of random people on street and post the photo on Instagram, would it be illegal?

[@Itchban]

Imagine if you shot some of these episodes in Japan haha

[@patkay]

100% haha. Ah well, next time for sure.

[@latyrdays]

What focus area do you recommend with street photography?

[@MeikzZz]

1:17 That focus tracking is amazing, does the A7 III also support this?

awesome video

[@patkay]

Thank you! Cheers for watching =)

[@albertcabbott]

what time of day is this? How did you film?

[@kaiyan425]

What is that beautiful serif font you used in the intro?

[@purbaningrumsasmita]

Cool!!!!

[@TonykhoaNguyen]

Great video

[@andresm645]

great video! how long did it take for just not caring to shoot photos of people in front of them? xD I feel totally mortified if I try to do it... Also, do you have a patreon or have considered making one? I'd probably join it depending on the perks (maybe more in depth editing videos, idk).

[@patkay]

Oh man, you should see some of the other styles of street photography I do where I'm up close and personal with a 24mm or less. Now *that's* confronting haha. I did previously have a Patreon! But I feel I went far too heavy with the value and it ended up taking too much of my time. Coincidentally, what kind of perks would entice you to join?

[@andresm645]

@@patkay wow I don't know how you do it... as for Patreon, it's a shame I didn't catch those days then haha, let's see... I would really enjoy streaming of your editing sessions, I think we could learn a lot from that (although the time difference might make it hard). Also depending on the volume of patrons, something like a private chat where you participate in would be cool. Access to photos you don't end up posting on your main account, and hi res wallpapers would be very nice. Discount coupons for your books/presets. And for higher tiers I think something like submitting photos to you for you to critique would be great. Having a pro's eye on your work can help you improve really fast (not that I've ever had that, but I guess?). Also one of the things that I find really hard is finding "our own style", I don't know if there's anything you could tie to that, maybe the photo critique could help if we take editing into account too. Which perks did you have before?

[@Gigih-vm4zs]

Where is the location is this.

[@yusei151]

I love this. looking forward to seeing more of these from you.

[@TheRunningCameraMan]

Too bad if you would do this in Holland the person you shot has the possibility to take your content down and get a lot of money for it. For Holland you must get the person's signature before you can post it freely...

[@patkay]

Yeah a lot of the street photography laws are different in many parts of Europe! In Australia, it's a lot freer =)

[@TheRunningCameraMan]

@@patkay Hahaha lets go to Australia than🤣

[@chloescanlon1107]

Really, this isn’t street photography it’s more architectural photography containing the odd person. You need to get more involved. And you’d be better off using a camera with a tilt screen instead of the side hinged flip out screen, for documentary and street it’s so much quicker and stealthier.

[@patkay]

Street photography is what you make it, so thank you for your opinion. However, please don't assume that this is the only style of street photography that I do, and/or that I don't also know that there's a tremendous amount of skill acquisition to be had when learning how to blend in to a crowd and document at point blank - those are my roots. Thanks for your opinion anyway, though.

[@VyasAnand]

Don’t be silly it’s street

[@albertcabbott]

looks like a street to me. looks like photography to me. street + photography = street photography 😂😂 I understand there are age-old "rules" to what street photography is.... such as I was told you can only use 35mm at or point. It's up to the creator to create how they feel fit imo.. an d rules are there to be broken!

[@VyasAnand]

@@albertcabbott Exactly some people like to be further away from their subjects and use a 90 mm or more.
