Wandering The Streets Of Shenzhen, China 🇨🇳📸

[@LensCraftedMoment]

I'm right here in Shenzhen, and I'm also into that first-person perspective street photography vibe. Next time you're in town, hit me up and I'll take you to capture some more down-to-earth street snaps. Let's make it happen!

Love this kind of content. Love the city vibes. It feels very relatable to anyone who goes out travelling. I think when you say by turning up your already winning - that hit home with me, I've not been turning up. Lovely candid photos. Very motivating video. I'm going to get out and about. Thank you.

[@Opticalwander]

Thank you 🙏🏼 keep creating ❤

[@enterpreunership]

Hi love your videos and good photographs

[@minus1db]

Dude thank you another epic adventure ❤

[@FlashesOfTime]

Great video. Watching it from Guangzhou, just further up the coast. Street photography is an addictive hobby...

[@TheFosseFilter]

I needed that last clip - another great video, thank you!

[@SkyboundPerspectives]

Great video! and the last message was needed. Thank you!

[@darrengodssonfielding]

Awesome stuff. I’m going to film a POV street video here in Wuxi, Jiangsu today. Was looking for some inspiration across KZbin. Stumbled on your video.

[@Roxanafediuc]

Love the video ❤ ❤

[@nathcore]

I went to Shenzehn, exactly where you were end of Jan, definitely more going on than when I was there.

[@hailing8]

I'm glad to see China in your video. Remember to come to Qinghai next time. There are very fascinating shots here.

[@andrewst7941]

I‘ve followed you since 2021,and saw you travel to many coutries,I'm surprised that you finally came to mainland China when I watch this video,greetings from Guangzhou city.

[@Opticalwander]

Thank you so much for the continued support! I will definitely come back to China ❤️

[@NSP44600]

Always great sam ❤

[@Opticalwander]

Thank you 🙏🏼

[@jeanettespiers4711]

Love the bikes: you have to go back and take more 🥰

[@ExploreWithMohamed]

Shenzhen is a huge city, you were in futian district, it's known for its electronics markets and CBD. It does feel slighty empty since most people there a office workers. In the future, check out luoho districts, it has more character there and way more people. Most of the interesting places are not concentrated in one locations so it is spread out across the city, luckily for you, the metro system is fantastic and super cheap.

[@Opticalwander]

Thank you ❤️ with the small amount of time I had free I did stick to the Futian area because that’s where the train was back to HK not knowing the city etc I didn’t want to risk missing my train back ❤ I will come back for sure but it was a nice introduction 📸

[@ExploreWithMohamed]

most people don't wear unless they are sick@@Lee-dc3uu

[@majdshh]

thanks for this amazing video dude.. I have Question about (WHAT the dual native ISO OF A7iii) you have it and use it, that's why I am asking..

[@Opticalwander]

I think the second is 2500 but you can get a clean image way past that in my experience. It might be a little more I can’t remember off the top of my head ❤

Great video! What camera are you using on your chest for street photography pov videos?🥳👋

[@Opticalwander]

Dji pocket 3 😊

Wow, ok.. Thank you🥰👋@@Opticalwander

[@Hugobeltran123]

Nice work!

[@KirakabirajKabiraj-xt5ub]

[@KirakabirajKabiraj-xt5ub]

Thank you sir ji 🙏🙏🔱🌹GOD BLESS YOU 📿🔱🙏🙏

[@atx2415]

Hello! What action camera did you use for this video? DJI action 4?

[@ricardolee2397]

Welcome to China🎉

[@pauloveza]

which camera is the bts? the footage looks amazing!!

[@Opticalwander]

Hey, thank you for watching, it’s the dji pocket 3 🙏🏼

[@furqanriaz8224]

Love your content from Pakistan ❤

[@og4348]

Great video bro! Watching this video in ShenZhen, honestly… as a”shenzhenese”, I don’t think Shenzhen has a great city for street photography(Bad atmosphere😂)

[@og4348]

Is*(sorry typed it wrong🤣

[@alexlee3227]

It’s a city very lacking in character, no history and little cultural interest, which is evident in the photos from this video (not the fault of the photographer!). Having lived there myself, and being someone who is also a street photographer, I do know of some places in the city that are slightly better for street photography but there are so many other Chinese cities more suitable.

[@yoshimertens]

Well that's a big lesson you've there! Something I struggle with at times as well. Can't wait to see what you'll come up with DJI 🙂😅 Did you record the pov using a phone or was that your GoPro shifting focus at times? 🙂

[@Opticalwander]

POV was recorded with the dji pocket 3 🫡

[@mhterekli]

Great video. Quick question. I am in a small city and I've taken lots of photos. And this place has not any interesting places. I feel like I've shot everything, any idea to be more creative in small city?

[@Opticalwander]

I know London is a big city but here me out, when I lived there I shot it basically every day for 3 years it definitely became very small. What I found was changing up my set up. Trying different lenses, cameras, styles. Setting my self tasks to find stories really helped. It can be difficult but have a moment to think about what you can do differently. What’s the city ? 🙏🏼

[@mhterekli]

@@Opticalwander Thank you so much for your answer. Once in a time I’ve tried to take photos of circle stuff in the city and that felt different, thought like “yeah maybe there are things that I have not find yet”. Now I am trying to get shot portraits of people without they notice obviously 🫢. I guess need to think more out of the box. The city is Turkiye/Kirklareli by the way.

[@user-zm99141]

welcome to china!

[@hritikdubey1879]

India is waiting for you brother. 🇮🇳 These shots were great though❤

[@willemdebeer2507]

Tamron 35-150mm f2/2.8 is probably the best lens on the market. Fact that there is no Canon mount I think was a bad move by Canon

[@Opticalwander]

Unfortunately that’s canon for you! You could get a mount converter just not ideal. But yes I agree the 35-150mm is hands down the best lens on the market in my opinion.

[@arwing7901]

welcome to china☺

[@帅郝-u5e]

Hello sir, I'm a fan of yours. Are you still in Shenzhen? If you are still in Shenzhen, can I take photos with you and learn some photography skills?❤

[@Hhhh22222-w]

Shenzhen puts New York to shame.

[@FrienOe]

I’m from Thailand 🇹🇭fc❤

[@DONTSASSMEBOI]

The smog factor is always annoying in Shenzhen

[@pematamang9268]

Be aware of Chine rules and Law please amnd otherwise you might end in Chinese Jail if you break law and china nation security.

[@Opticalwander]

Yep, I searched the laws before I went. Thoroughly! ❤

[@daves6620]

The air quality was awful.

[@brewingtonnadine]

how did you tell it??

[@fishxutopia_]

perhaps the hazy background ​@@brewingtonnadine

[@Opticalwander]

@@fishxutopia_haze doesn’t always mean bag air quality it can often just be humidity. Tbh the app on my phone that I use for weather everywhere I go said the air quality was pretty good this day. London can get pretty bad sometimes as well. But yes. China is known for its bad air quality. If you notice however it’s not too loud that’s because there’s actually quite a lot of electric cars.

[@Janihonkalaxx]

Those photos are all so samekinda🤷‍♂️ nothing special.. little bit boring👎🤷‍♂️.. not good.. like amateur snapshots.

[@Opticalwander]

And ? Not every athlete, racing driver goes out on track each time and sets PB. Not every designer creates a million dollar project every time. Not every photographer takes award winning photos every time. But I showed up, I created and documented a city I had never been. A city some may never even see. The narrative of this video is I only had 3 hours but I wanted to enjoy taking photos while I was there and I did. The photos are just a bi-product of me enjoying my time. If you don’t like them. Then that’s all it is. Nothing changes. Have a great day ❤️
