Thank you so much for watching and commenting - health is wealth!

Oh the 24-120 sounds great - haven’t tried it, but a super versatile focal range. The 40mm is great, but more vintage character than perfect IQ. Happy shooting!

The Zf is an amazing camera, it’s on steep discount right now via Amazon in Australia? Hope you can get a good deal, thanks for watching!

I never got along with 28mm, and sold my Q2 because of it. I’m hoping to get better at composing wide - thanks for watching!

Thanks so much Richard! Shooting more and more compressed these days, having a lot of fun doing it

Nice one! Will add that to my list of tip and tricks. Thanks for the intel!

@@BokehTherapy I love your videos. You seem to have gone a similar path of cameras that you’ve tried out.

I’m glad to hear I am not the only one who’s run the gauntlet of camera brands! Testing out the Nikon Z lenses is a lot of fun, don’t know why nobody talks about how good they are

Great to connect with Korean photographers - thanks for watching!

Yes it’s a great every day option - optical flaws can look quite charming under the right light. Thanks for watching!

@@BokehTherapy what's your opinion on the Nikon 24-200, because in my opinion that's the best kit lens, sure it's not good in low light and unless zoomed in on a close subject it has no good bookeh, but it's on my camera 90% of the time because of it's insane versatility.

I have never used the 24-200 - looks like an amazing versatile lens. I just get better shots with the limitations of a prime, wish I loved using zooms more

Thanks so much!

Mmm a 105 f1.4 would be sweet. Mirrorless versions of the F mount classics

Thanks for watching!

Thank you so much - kudos to commercial event photographers like yourself, it’s a hard gig to keep up with especially in this day and age. We would have connected back during one of the teaching and learning events? Best of luck with your Bach of Ed, don’t hesitate to reach out if I can help in anyway!

@@BokehTherapy I was the Uni's photographer for 11 years, so yes I photographed you for promotional content (to which they still use today) and many of you award ceremonies. You are very admired by your students and your peers. Thank you for reaching out and the offer of help, I appreciate it.

This video was made before Nikon announced the new 35mm f1.4. If I get my hands on it (very keen to) will make a follow up video. Thanks for watching!

@@BokehTherapy i like your style and the documenting from the past. And congrats also on the photos.

@@BogdanGrigore I love photographing Japan - a beautiful place to test out lenses

Thanks for watching!

Don’t think size is the argument anymore - Z8 and z9 are DSLR size haha. I think image quality and video features are being touted as the main advantages of mirrorless? Neither is a concern for most street photographers I know though. Thanks for watching!

@@BokehTherapy size of the lenses was a clear theme of this video. Z lenses are *bigger* than F mount. But hey I get you that's not what you want it to be about

I didn’t make any comparisons to DSLRs in the video? The only clear theme is picking the best lens for your use case, and only so much I can cover in 1 video. F-mount glass is great, still deciding on which one to test next.

I like the parashooter straps from Wotancraft (bit.ly/3uIBZ94) as well as the braided leather straps from Barton 1972 (www.barton1972.com). The Barton 1972 straps look very cool, but I think Wotancraft's straps are a bit more functional? It's the eternal struggle, style over substance haha.

APS-C really has a great place in the market. Everything's smaller, just wish companies would pack their APS-C line with as much innovation as their full frame cameras.

Thank you very much!

@@BokehTherapy You're welcome!

Other than getting the exposure to taste a lot of it is adding some colors to the shadows? A bit green and teal in the shadows and boosting the warmth of the global WB. Might consider presets at some point, but I think it’s Tokyo that’s doing the heavy lifting for those shots haha. Thanks so much for watching!

Wow thank you so much! Connecting with regular viewers is the best part of the process

Ueno has everything I have grown to appreciate as a photographer over time. Never leave a photowalk empty handed

That is a really common kit for Nikon Z, I think it will be great! I like a two lens setup day to day, just switch out when I am about to head back to the hotel from the photowalk. Get the same spots with two perspectives without the anxiety of lens switching

Haha oh no… I have been thinking about the Plena myself. If I have the budget I will find a copy and test it out. Those images from the Plena look so beautiful

Oh glad to hear you love the 50mm f1.2! You got it (bought it for yourself? Haha) as a birthday present right? Always grateful to hear from you, and all the return viewers

@@BokehTherapy hey you remembered! thanks for that! really appreciate it! I used the 50mm 1.2 exclusively for 3 months, april may and june, and loved every photo that came out of it, then for fathers day i got a canon m6mk2 and some smaller discontinued efm lens 32 1.4 and wow, that set up is so much lighter! with the grey and black colour theme, it looked semi retro. I even found some filmic picture styles as i only shoot jpeg these days (past 10 years) so it scratches that itch of classic film look. with that said, i've picked back up my film camera these days and noticed i had a roll of half used portra 400, i shot the rest of the photos and got them developed and scanned and it was photos of my sons from about 8 years ago when they were babies. I'm so tempted to sell off my r6mk2 and my 1.2 lens now. but wife says no, heh. I also wish canon would make a FF retro camera like the ZF, that might be an interesting combo for me with some 1.8 lens. keep up the great work! binge watching a few of your videos right now, onto the fuji one!

Sounds like you're having a blast with all your gear. What an amazing find of undeveloped film, it's like a storyline from a movie. More retro cameras from every brand please!

It’s an amazing lens, I am impressed with all of Nikon’s S primes that I have tried! The image quality is amazing for the price, happy shooting!

It’s been great connecting with like minded photographers like yourself - best part of hitting 5K and working on the channel after hours. Thank you!

Thank you so much - weekly uploads is the goal from here on out!

Thanks Eric! I am thinking more about longer focal lengths these days, the 105 and 135mm lenses both look really great. Will need to save up either way so need to buy wisely haha

@@BokehTherapy the plena 135 looks fantastic!

It is relatively massive so a big commitment to lug around for street photography. The images just look so beautiful though

Thanks so much! Took a lot of work and audience support to reach 5K, more to come

@@BokehTherapy Keeping fingers crossed, mate!

Family always comes first, hopefully you get a chance to visit Japan sooner rather than later. It is the most drastically different travel and photography experience from my normal everyday life. I have heard lots of good things about the 24-120!

@@BokehTherapy I'm so looking forward to it!

Thanks so much! More next week

Haha I am certainly not above a great dad joke - kudos! Thanks so much for watching Scott, more to come!

Thanks man!

I totally agree! I am fortunate to live within a 9 hour flight so it’s nice and quick without being too expensive.

@@BokehTherapy Japan is a photographers dream. Colourful, traditional, moody, nature, food, temples...and most of all packed with people from different walks of life.

I need to be at the top of my game the moment I land, otherwise lots of missed opportunities for once in a lifetime shots

Thanks so much - very grateful for 5K, more to come!

Thank you Rob - hoped I pulled off the writing this week, always a gamble trying to stick the landing. Shinjuku gets a bad rap because of how busy it can be, but the quieter areas are very beautiful. More refinement next week!

@@BokehTherapy For sure! Like I mentioned last week, I enjoy it even when it doesn't land. RUclips is full of a lot of the same stuff, and your take is different. I find it refreshing, and it inspires my own creativity.

Feedback from return viewers is the most valuable, thanks for taking the time as always. RUclips is thankfully weighting regular viewers higher than new viewers for the moment so you’re a big part of the channel’s growth to date!

Thanks for the feedback! Really helps the channel and the algorithm

Thank you Chris! Can only continue to grow with return viewers like yourself. More to come next week

Have to agree with ChrisThe1 - The 5k subs does not reflect the quality of Jack's content. I mean, just focus on on the personal reflection he is sharing around the 7 minute point in the vid!? Who hasn't found themselves out on another photography walk and feeling a growing sense of anxiety due to the sense we are not able to 'see' the images that must be, somehow, in front of us. Jack, carry on!

Thank you Craig - took a lot of reflection to figure this out, glad to hear my experience is shared by others. More to come!

Thanks so much Steven - more to come!

Haha yup I have already booked the next trip. Always find something new to obsess over every trip

I try to go out with two lenses and 1 body - 1 lens on first leg of photo walk, and the other lens on the return leg. I don’t bother changing lenses on the spot, just when I stop for a break before heading back

@@BokehTherapy this is great idea. Never thought of this. Sometimes I use one lens too much that forget to use others and regret about it

This approach helps when I am in a new area - sometimes safest just to head back the way I came (on other side of the road) and get to shoot the same spots via two perspectives

@@BokehTherapy thanks. This help a lot. Funny thing no street photographers ever mentioned this on their tips or videos.

Hmm I might mention it the next time I make a camera bag video. Thanks for the idea!

Hi Matthew that sounds like a great kit! My travel bag is always changing, but the 50 f1.8 and 85 f1.8 are always in there. Will be a topic for a future video - hope you have a great trip to Brisbane!

@@BokehTherapy a video on your travel bag would be great. I also have Z28/2.8, 50/1.4 AFS and Z35/1.8S. With many primes, it is very hard to decide what to leave behind when travelling light.

Mmm I have not dived into F mount yet… bit afraid of the Pandora’s box this would open haha! I am keen to try the new 35mm f1.4 too

I am based in Australia - great to connect on RUclips!

Thanks so much - I never know how the algorithm works, so glad to hear you found the channel. New video coming tomorrow!

I love the older Fujifilm stuff for the look, but performance just hasn’t kept up even in the newer generations. The Nikon Zf is my favourite camera, thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching - more to come this week

Thanks so much - more content to come this week
