Love this style of video man! The jazz music adds so much to it. And love seeing these walk-around style videos with the Leica Q/Q2. Inspires me to get out and shoot with my Q!
Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed it.
The shot of the 3 turning up their cans was super nice.
My favourite from the day!
Yep the Jazz is perfect for this. Really enjoyed it. Very chill.
Brilliant thanks!!
Got some photography videos to catch up on and I started with this one and gosh, so many shots here that just had me going "wow"! It looked like it was a perfect day for photography, with amazing weather and so many people in seemingly good spirits. Amazing to see. Thanks, Mike!
Love this! Thanks for watching - it really was a great day for street!
I love that the background of almost every image and video clip is just a chaotic cacophony of people.
London is so busy when the sun is out!
The cigarettes on the street, you may say, is a smokin' shot! 😉
Hahaha nice nice
Wow, I am just investigating street, this is very well done!
Thanks!
CIGARETTE SEGMENT WAS DOPE! I'M ALSO GLAD YOU USED YOUR CREATIVE THOUGHTS TO GET EVERYONE IN THE FRAME LOOKING AT THE MAP!!! REALLY GOOD VIDEO!💯🤘🏾🤘🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
ayyy thanks - glad you liked it.
I love these pov videos so much!
things we love to hear!
This is exactly the video I've been looking for. I'm visiting London this summer and have been wondering about the life of the streets and what focal length I should bring. I have a 21 and 35 but I'm considering the new Voigtlander 28 1.5. Also, this is the first time I haven't skipped through a sponsor ad (I even signed up).
This is music to my ears! thank you.
Great video. Love that one of my photos was shown whilst you were plugging PortraitMode :-)
ayy fantastic haha
really great, i love the way you capture movement
Thanks!
I feel like the 28mm is a 10/10 in interesting cities like London, Tokyo, NY or at some nice travel destinations but when you hold it in everyday situations in your suburb it instantly looks like a boring phone picture. It's one where 95% of your shots are underwhelming but the 5% make it exciting
I very much agree with this haha
Another fun video and a big fan of the music choice too. Plenty to love about 28mm, even though it’s not my favourite focal range.
haha I'm glad, I wasn't sure how the music would be received but I think people like it.
What a great day for shooting street around London, the weather looked really nice and warm. I was going to try and get up there this weekend for the coronation, but it's not to be unfortunately!
Nahhh pretty poor weather this weekend. I'm still going to head into town but it's going to be strange one.
@@MikeChudley I'm heading to Bournemouth for it, so I expect it'll just be wet and windy there!
I always used to wonder what the point of the 28mm was when it was so close to the 24mm, and then i started doing street instead and now I'm annoyed that my current camera platform of choice, Sony, doesnt have a good mini 28mm either in the sigma I series range or those sony G mini lenses. Funny how times change, would love a 28mm now. (just going to ignore the sony 28mm f2.8 lol)
The only 28mm lens worth buying on all mirrorless platforms now (apart from Leica) is the Fujifilm XF 18mm f/1.4. (28 f/2 equiv). Everything else is disappointing.
@@professionalpotato4764 if I ever get myself an xpro3, or they release an xpro4 it's the first thing I'm getting 😂
This comment, times 1 million
@@professionalpotato4764 It's a very nice lens, but (as a Fuji user) the autofocus isn't good enough and the lens is too large for my preference
@@alhOOO2O Understandable, but then again most Leicas don't have good autofocus or even autofocus to begin with so I think Fuji is still usable. At least for street and casual use. It is definitely a chonky lens and I do sometimes wish it was smaller.
I love 28mm
Some class photos there mate.
Appreciate that Derren!
nice
Amazing shots ! I love the way you approach people
Thanks! Hopefully, with respect and good body language means it doesn't feel confrontational.
Great video. Your pictures seem to constantly improve. London is a tricky city for street photography and you make it look easy.
Thanks for the kind words! But I'd have to say how lucky am I to shoot in London.
London? .... tricky ?
In what way ?
@@ThePurpleHarpoon I also agree, London is one of the best in the world for street haha
Just recieved your book.....brilliant
Book?
Impressive
very nice vid, great pics
Great video - and yes, street and jazz goes together 😍 I normally shoot my Q (and M10) in manual mode in the streets. But you seem to have auto and AF working great for you. Would you share your settings? EDIT: Oh, I found the video, where you share the settings already 😉
haha fantastic, thanks for watching! Hope the setup video is also useful!
Cracking set of shots Mike. Love the Q series I enjoy trying and using different brands formats both digital and film but since getting intomthe Q series Kt's getting harder to grab anything else, it just does the business with no fuss or faff. Enjoyed that video mate cheers
Thanks Paul - I do love the Q as well. It's certainly no faff, which always me to focus on the street that matters!
@@MikeChudley spot on mate I've shot a few events concerts parades etc with the Q series and it just works flawlessly the 28mm lens makes you get in close and the images reflect that in the moment feeling. Big call but I'd say the Q or the Q2 would be my desert island camera......hopefully there's lecky and a few people on the island too otherwise it's an expensive waste.
Love the music , what camera do you use?
Excited for this video. Just paid a deposit for a Q3, super stoked for its arrival..................one day.
Hope you enjoy it!
@@MikeChudley Thanks. The only concern is how long it will take to arrive. i have read up to 6 months!!!
Awesome! Love the vibes 🙌
Any tips on action cam settings? I’m struggling. Please Help! 🙈
Amazing shots. I still get scared to get up that close especially without warming up. Do you jump right in or take some time to get into the zone?
Everyday is different, along with each situation but generally speaking it does take a few shots to warm into it for sure. Thanks for watching!
what proportion roughly are shot from the hip vs raising the viewfinder up to your eye? Excellent video as always BTW
Really enjoy those videos. I feel like I have learned a lot from those videos of yours.
I am a beginner and have a Canon EOS 80D with EFS 18-55mm and 55-250 lens that maximum aperture is 4/3.5. I am interested in shooting portraits, landscapes, and streets. Any thoughts or recommendations ?
Do you use zone focusing for this type of photography?
Yeaaa about 50% of the time
Great video Mike, I really enjoyed it. May I ask what settings you use on the GoPro Hero 10; resolution, fps, bit rate, shutter... ? Thanks.
Nice video! What focus settings did you use?
Portraitmode does not work. Every time I try to upload a photo it crashes. I have contacted customer services and received no reply. It looks like it would be a good app but it doesn’t work
How do you do, that people doesnt take care of you while taking the shot. Everytime when I pull up my camera straight to face of stranger, they noticed every single time (i have small fuji x100v :D h
That's @jake100 at 8:31.
Hi is that canon28mm? I bought A second hand canon28mm and only used it a couple of times. After watching the video I may try the Lens for street photography. Thank you
This is the Leica Q2 with a 28mm fixed lens.
Do you shoot from screen or EVF?
Both depends on the situation
I'm a Q owner but the lack of bokeh is very disappointing
How do you get so close without them noticing
Body language, looking like I have no idea what I’m doing, smiling, be fast. Just the way you carry yourself goes a long way. It’s very hard to explain but each situation is different. Bottom line, be respectful, don’t look intimidating. Look like your enjoying yourself. All those little things help.
Good Stuff Mike I'm a Q2 shooter myself. Do you crop in camera or in post?
Hey Courtney, thanks for watching. Maybe 2 or 3 in this video were cropped and I do it in post when editing.
*24mm 🤣
lol
Not that good, actually......and it's not the camera's fault. Keep learning.
I swear you are invisible, even in the busiest of places if I just stood there with a camera people would at the very least look at me 🤣🤣
Body language and the way you carry yourself goes a long way But we can't forget London makes this easier.. People are just busy with their own lives it makes documenting everything a breeze.
@@MikeChudley I live on the Gold Coast here in Aus, big tourist area, quite busy, lots of street performers and very weird characters also lot's of people walking around with huge cameras but I'm always spotted haha
