Dude how are you not bigger? Funny videos that's just about as long as my attention span. Keep it up!

I would much prefer an AF/MF on the level of a Nikon ZF instead of this. Please!!!!

lucky for you: it's not real medium format anyway. more like full frame+

Can't wait for the MF fuji x100!! hopefully its not over 2,500!!

isn't a half frame in digital... just what APS-C has been?? I was actually eager that it'd be film because it'd bring a very high quality option to the choices of new film cameras, given how good all their cameras are. Even their Instax stuff seems well built comparatively. But I wonder how likely this is. People have speculated Nikon and Canon were due to make MF cameras for years now and nothing came. What's different about these rumors?

We need to know the price factor…😮

Fujifilm is smoking something there days and i love it

If this thing is real I’ll definitely be picking one up

Great video! More thrifting, please.

Part of me understands what you’re saying, but you have to change with the times, photography is not dead just different. If you have talent it will shine through, after 40 years in photography people still pay me to do it.

I couldn’t watch it all, too depressing

Dang, i love that

Photography is far from dead. What has "died" are those so-called "artists" who fail to evolve at the same pace as the photographic industry. Add to that those who have fallen behind in their way of thinking, unable to adapt to the fast-changing dynamics of the consumer market, and those who struggle to grasp the ever-shifting landscape of social media. That outdated mindset is what’s truly obsolete. Innovation continues to thrive, but it requires a flexible and forward-thinking mentality to keep up with industries evolving faster than ever. This concept applies to any modern industry-whether it's automotive, computing, or beyond. Without the ability to innovate and adapt, the industry may seem stagnant, but only to those who can’t evolve or reinvent themselves.

The red rubber goes on the outside not the inside

I kinda disagree with some of your points. Photography existed before social media, as did successful photographers. Complaining about not having success with your photographs on social media, is like complaining an about cell phone reception, as an athlete. How good the former is, has nothing to do with the latter. It’s like saying music is dead, because most musicians can’t make a full living at being a musician. Most never have. And it’s been that way, for all of recorded history.

White images are amazing from the Zeiss lenses.

What is the filter you use at night for the glowy look?

Yeah…. Are you me in another world or dimension? 😅

I have a bag problem too, but came to realise many years ago I don't like dedicated camera bags (after spending a lot of money with numerous brands). Nowadays I use camera cubes with normal backpacks and camera wraps with totes. My go to camera bags are the Mystery Ranch Bindle tote 10 and 20 and the travel bag is mostly the last gen Osprey Nebular 34L (didn't like the changes they made on the newer model), a Patagonia Refugio 26l, Petzl Kliff Rope Bag 36l and a Petzl Bug 18L. I also have Mountain Smith and Mystery Ranch slings, but never used them. If I thought about It, I likely have close to 80 or 90 bags and I still look at others to buy, its not a problem yet, but family members have commented about it.

With all respect, I really can't see how photography is dead. Looking at all the amazing work I see on Instagram, I just have hard time believing this. Because of the high demand for visual content, it could be argued that the demand for quality works has never been higher. Of course I agree with you that professional gigs are hard to come by and AI is a threat to all of us, but the photogs I follow on instagram have thousands of likes and followers. Many have taken to selling LUTs, classes and other things to get by.

My daughter earns a very good living doing wedding photography, so there’s still a market for it.

If only he were a Muslim immigrant living in the UK, they would mess with him

I had had a camera bag that came with when I bought my camera, it got moldy so I had to throw it away. Now I have only my baggage.😂👍

Yup, you're nuts

Try to make some professional studio shots of your artwork :-) Or try to get your realty professionally photographed.

And I thought I had too many bags. My main struggle = the Peak Design bags I find to be the most practical....but the least comfortable. To your point the Shimoda Explore V2 has a dumpster camera cube, and the side pocket is gross to get into (but crazy comfortable for long hikes). I love the Peak Design Every Day backpacks functionality but wear one on a hike for more than an hour and you'll hate your life. Peak Design is sooooo good when it comes to the side panel access, but the straps dig into your shoulders, the hip belt accessory cuts into your sides. Yeah they're insanely well built and I have no doubt they'll last me for a decade+ but I wish I could get an identical design that didn't hate human flesh. Does a middle ground exist between usable side panel access and comfortable to wear? I live in a part of the world with so much dust and dirt that I'd prefer to never put my bag "on the ground" to get gear out of it. Side panel access is a MUST.

This was awesome ... Bro im in the same boat!

Nikon Zfc with 24mm f/1.7 Now THAT is a combo that beats every Fuji out there.

I knew in 5 seconds you were a radio guy before you announced it (something I kinda study). I'm with you on Instagram. Put in a solid 18 months of large format niche subject photography and I garner 5-7 likes on each post. Frustrating but it is what it is I suppose.

After living in China for 4 years, I’m used to it, they actually have face recognition software, but that used more for their nationals than foreigners. I think genuine privacy is a rare luxury these days unless you live a hermit lifestyle.

When I'm out on the street, I'm trying to make art. Government is trying to capture you doing something illegal and use as video evidence against you in a court of law.

Definitely different. Like the comment above mine said, it's all about the intention. It does surprise me though how many people get really upset at their picture being taken in public by a photographer, with literally more intrusive surveillance everywhere, they get mad at us.

Let's talk about intent. Is the intent of the street photographer to look for some wrong doing? Or is it the intent of government servailence of photograph the soul of a city?

What time do you go to sleep in the evenings in order to get up just after 3 AM? I need to get on this type of schedule for my work. Please and thank you.

And 2025!✌️🇦🇺

Don't have any problems with it. Work perfectly fine

What the.... listen. I'm a pro photographer for almost 20 years. Ik make a 5 figure income per year. And no, photography isn't dead. I invested a looooooottttt of time in AI (ComfyUI with al bells and whistles) and CGI (SideFX Houdini). But the thing is, none of the digital forms can pauze time, none of them. Only photography can! And people are always searching for authenticity. Look at luxury watched, music on vinyl, people going to cinema's, people going to music concerts etc etc. The photography industry will change of course, but there will be a bigger gap between photo's that are just needed and authentic pictures with a different purpose. I don't want to have a portrait of myself made with AI, I want a real portrait. But I'm happy with your video. The more photographers stop working the more work is left for others ;).

The photos are awesome but the stories are what really gets me. Thank you Marc

One of my secret joys is watching wedding photographers' behind the scenes videos. There is no way I would ever seek to match the Katelyn James, Vanessa Joy or Taylor Jacksons of this world. But I love watching them do their thing.

in street photography you have to go with the subject as it presents itself. Unfortunately this is what we are presented with. It's like going to a Vols game and being called a cheater because you only photographed people in orange.

Loving this new found content.

Where in east TN are you? I am in Southwest Virginia

The person that bought the camera & set it up & showed it, should get the credit! Without them doing so the pictures wouldn’t exist period!

i have considered doing this so many times and have not yet - this frickin cold this time of year though - really tempting idea - especially with a small camera! worst case get tossed out. I was thinking wow were you really going to gopro into the VS 🤣
