Urban Photography...with a difference!

[@ArminHirmer]

holy cow! every single photo a masterpiece.... you are seriously one of my all-time favourite youtubers

[@e6Vlogs]

Very kind of you to say so Armin.

[@MartysWhiteSuit]

I am amazed by the depth of colour and richness to the tones in each of the photographs shown.

[@CVCC]

I'm really impressed on the amount of outstanding iconic shots you came up with with this lens, Bravo.

[@dtravisphd]

The fisheye lens adds so much energy to the images. Thanks for a great video Craig.

[@rhann73]

Okay, now you've made me do it. I immediately purchased a Samyang 8mm fisheye (Fuji version) after seeing this vlog. What wonderful images you produced! I could not resist. I have been having a great time looking for likely subjects. It is an eye-opening experience, determining what will work and what will not. But what fun finding out! Thanks for the inspiration.

[@adrianthomas2132]

Amazing video.. thanks so much.. i just bought a fish eye lens last week as a cheap solution rather than an expensive ultrawide.. and u have given me a good idea on how to use it!! Thanks again

[@Luigi13]

All the images you take they have a very natural look and enhance the place after seeing it with the video. Great work as always.

[@gerzoc2698]

How good was that. Brilliant. Never thought I was a fan of the Fish Eye lens. That video has changed that. Great work

[@e6Vlogs]

I'm here to convert!

[@waindalton8575]

I really enjoyed that video. Thank you for uploading it. As someone has already said, you make it look easy.

[@christopheradams7473]

Never saw a need for a fisheye len before now, this vlog has really opened my eyes to it's uses, brilliant.

[@tdavis85]

love your videos, craig. and the music is always of great choice and makes the videos even more enjoyable to watch

[@wokabu9991]

Craig, this video has inspired me so very much, I just had to order my own Samyang 7.5 😊 I'm very much looking forward to working with it. Thank you so much for all these great inspiring videos 👍

[@allandavies1187]

Marvellous images; Marvellous locations and a Marvellous lens. I want one NOW !

[@neilcousineau4956]

Another good one. I normally don’t care for fish eye photos but you’ve shown me a new and different prospective. Thanks.

[@cookieinofferton]

one word brilliant great work craig, just changed from nikon to mirrorless hope it goes to plan

[@b.s.4478]

I see a e6 video, i give a thumbs up and then i watch it...is that simple! :) It has everything, pleasant music, great footage, outstanding photos and...of course, humour! :)

[@c.augustin]

You show the fisheye lens at its best. Really inspiring!

[@DTAnglesey]

Simply put....... Stunning work Craig!! Never really been a fan of fisheye lens but you just showed us in the right hands and the right subjects those little gems work great! Thank you!

[@jimbean532]

Your compositions are truly inspiring. Thank you!

[@terryolsen4244]

I admit that I've never been a fan of ultra-wide angle lenses. But your photos in this video are fantastic! Thanks for showing me what can be done with them.

[@my2004rt]

Well done! Excellent photos!! Very creative shooting with a fisheye lens.

[@kenheraty373]

Uplifting idea for the days I look at the camera bag and think, Uhg... ~ Thanks!

[@grat2010]

Thanks for the fisheye fun.

[@alanbarlow8966]

Excellent as usual. I own a fisheye but have not used it very much. You have given me something to think about now.

[@brianspringett1435]

Brilliant video, as usual. I've only just stumbled across your videos, you have a relaxed easy manner & make everything look simple. Keep up the good work.

[@ianharper6015]

Thanks for a really useful and inspirational video.

[@andreasrochow5170]

Simply great views, highly inspiring! Craig, you open my eyes. Thank you so much.

[@srhphoto1]

What a fantastic take on my home town! Superb and inspirational use of a fisheye lens.

[@e6Vlogs]

Phew! I'm glad I haven't upset the locals!

[@runninblue9415]

you have an understated approach with excellent images to show. really good stuff thank you

[@nimbus5379]

Inspirational images of my home city. Thank you

[@derekmidgley]

Wow, I watched this and loved your work. Jumped right on e-bay and ordered one of these for myself. Now for some fun. Thanks so much, Craig, for sharing and your straight forward teaching. Look forward to all your videos!

[@iaingeere7332]

Great video Craig ,love the images,they look fantastic.

[@williamjames859]

Great video, straight to the point and great sample shots, im now going to order the 8 mm for my xt2,,,, I think it will give similar results. Thanks

[@simonmerriman2557]

Great vlog and brilliant use of the fisheye - mine generally stays in the bag but you've encouraged me to bring it out and use it. Keep the vlogs coming!

[@mcgarnacle21]

These photos are utterly brilliant. And the video work and production is top notch. A wonderful video and thanks for making these, your channel is awesome.

[@e6Vlogs]

Well, thank you. You seem a very happy viewer! Nice to have you along.

[@clivepratt4269]

Great video, loved the different look to the photos.

[@billbaker1406]

All great shots I really like the ground level shots keep them coming.

[@sr29]

I recently bought a Nikon 10.5 fisheye.......cant wait to get out there, very inspirational, well done!

[@pegbag12]

Hi, I bought a Samyang 8mm for my Fuji X-T2 because of your video....and was not disappointed!! A great creative lens. And great videos!!

[@MikesVoyagesAndDrives]

Thanks for another great video and some really beautiful views of Newcastle. I like to use my 12-24mm Sigma Lens on my D800 for years. It's not as extreme as your lens, but offers some really nice possibilities, too.

[@felixconnolly1467]

Excellent images!

[@MrPercy1001]

You covered some ground there Craig, great video!

[@colindee5677]

Inspired me to try a fisheye lens. Thank you.

[@nicumarinoiu5358]

Nice!

[@Termidryna]

Beautiful shots.

[@videoemilioisis]

Thanks you! Your work is a tremendous inspiration.

[@johne2311]

Inspirational stuff, you have me contemplating that little lens now. I like these one lens kind of challenge vids, keep up the good work.

[@e6Vlogs]

Thanks John. Indeed, a challenge every photographer should try.

[@meshalm3794]

just wow.

[@CATOBOEING]

You make it seem so easy, thanks for sharing with us. Cheers from Oslo :)

[@cillyede]

A very interesting video and nice shots!

[@kenny75photography2]

Great video, Craig. I have that very same lens and I love using it and the sharpness is from it is surprisingly good. Need to get out and do more fisheye photography myself.

[@robinhorton3251]

Brilliant vid, and great shots, I am using the Pentax Takumar 55mm on the Fuji X-T1at the moment, how about a vid on vintage lenses?

[@grahamscarbro5500]

Now i add a fish eye to my "want list" !!!

[@kenheraty373]

bought one when i finished this Vlog!

[@simonwalter7142]

You lucked out at the Discovery Museum: it was virtually empty. Really liked the stairwell shot there

[@TimberGeek]

I'd love to play around with a lens like that!

[@JamesRandall47]

Can I make a suggestion that perhaps others would share. It would be great to see two images of each shot - before and after post processing. At the moment we see a video shot and then pumph a beautiful photograph appears, but it is of course the final, after processing. I, for one would just love to see the image as it came from the camera and then the final.

[@johncumber8869]

Great vid, how do you deal with banding with the clear blue skies? had a go with the Samyang fisheye today on the EM1 for the first time and noticed I was getting serious banding. Really enjoy watching your video's.

[@garypentecost833]

Brilliant .since I have found you on KZbin I have viewed all your posts totally inspirational I too use Oly' Omd and Pen ,I've just ordered the Samyang 12mm I think the fisheye will be next on my list .........more vids please 😀👍

[@valdiskrebs566]

How is that Samyang 12mm? I have been looking at it also...

[@AnandaSim]

Love the #fishie - Haven't used mine for a while, previously used it a lot. I have not liked IBIS with the lens, the image wobbles a lot - but then it's so wide, handshake impact is much less anyway.

[@marseillex]

Great chanel, Craig. Found it today on YT - and just ordered the lense for my Fuji X. I really enjoy your fotos. Keep on shooting. And selling Samyang fisheye lenses :-) Greetings from Munich

[@e6Vlogs]

Yes, I hope Samyang appreciate my unintentional sales technique. Perhaps they can send me a free t-shirt or something!

[@mariusbrar]

Nice

[@valdiskrebs566]

Great shots! Where does “fisheye territory” start? Would the Olympus 9-18mm get me there at 9 and 10mm???

[@e6Vlogs]

Valdis Krebs No unfortunately not. Fisheye starts where the lens isn’t corrected and that’s below 9mm on MFT. Even the Oly 7-14mm is rectilinear

[@frederickstjohn8069]

11:38 to 11:47 Absolutely love those images. Do you ever have issues with security challenging you in these places?

[@e6Vlogs]

Thanks Freddy. No, no problems with security. They seem more than happy for you to take pics in there

[@martintaylor4620]

Generally, shopping centres are privately owned and many don't allow (or like) photography. Obviously you have used these locations before and so you're aware of what you can get away with and where. Do you get much of a problem when taking groups or do you avoid them and go elsewhere?

[@e6Vlogs]

martin taylor My workshops are generally One2One only, but yes, i avoid such places unless on my own.

[@johnsimpson9753]

Craig great video, cannot afford fish eye at the moment is there any other way to get this effect

[@e6Vlogs]

Yes. And I explain more in one of my eGuides available with an e6 Subscription. So the price of that! But otherwise, try a camera phone adapter.

[@ubolsueathet1201]

You should shoot the infinity bridge at stockton on tees

[@e6Vlogs]

Yes, great bridge. It's on my To Do list

[@desgardner7169]

Errrr you did say City photography didn't you? hasn't Newcastle got any people I only saw about half a dozen people in the whole of your shoot.......however the pictures that you shared with us were most enjoyable so I suppose I will have to visit my granddaughter at Northumberland Uni sometime, (now taking a year out) Thank you for sharing. PS I like that wide angle.

[@peterosterman8206]

👍👍

[@thegroove2000]

Can also be achieved in post saving money on a lens to ones understanding.

[@e6Vlogs]

Yes, but that doesn’t sound like much fun…which is the whole point of shooting with this lens!

[@robcoates4394]

Inspirational! I'm going into Perth tomorrow with my 10-24mm to see what I can come up with. Thanks, and cheers from DownUnder 🦘

[@waltermorgan828]

thanks again for a great video. however please reconsider the music loops. I cant stNd it. silence is always better. or even streetambience would be great,. just my 2 cents. cheers!!

[@NasCostomano]

better for use in an urban environment? top video, bearing repeated views as always!

[@e6Vlogs]

Yes, I think it would be fair to say this lens works better in the urban environment that a rural one. Unless anyone wants to prove me otherwise!

[@ubolsueathet1201]

Well i have a BONE TO PICK WITH YOU. I just purchased a fisheye.

[@e6Vlogs]

Ooops! But think of the new images you will now capture. The best money you will ever spend!

[@bensonstein3993]

Do not watch this video whilst drunk, as I did. Got quite dizzy. Bwahaha.

[@disarmsox]

It's all a bit fishy to me.

[@e6Vlogs]

You're funnier than me!!
