@@Stockezy Those were sick shots. I hope you were able to give him those photos or your IG for him to look it up. Go EZ on yourself. Blowing out the sky has it's own look to it.
@@JeremySchmit57 interesting indeed. That is actually my 3rd favorite lens for street. If this video gets enough attention that will be the next in the series. Thanks for the suggestion! 🙏🏾
Stockezy dude I got all f2 lenses because of you, sold my 56, 90, 16, and 10-24 and kept the 23, 35, 50! Man you don't know how much you've inspired me! Please show us some love with those f2's!
Yes! I really liked the POV nature of this video. Coincidentally I'm watching this on the bus as i travel to New York myself lol. So now I'm your newest subscriber, and thanks for reviewing this lens as I've been considering it myself
Okay now I watched it haha! Man, that lens is sexy! Makes me want to travel back in time and get the X-Pro2 instead of the X100F... That shot at 6:09 shows exactly what kind of dynamic you get with a 16mm (24mm FF equivalent). It feels like you are there with them on the street! And that moment at 6:24 was too funny :D Yes for more POV videos!
I am here because Jeremy got a notification that you finished your upload. Going to come back and watch it when the Full HD version is available :D Already looks like a fun video!
Great video. i switched to fuji just a few week ago and instantly fall in love with those f2 primes. Reminds me old analogue cameras, which I loved and started with.
You mentioned NYC. Greetings from Jersey City your neighbor across the river! I just purchased thr 16mm 2.8 to complete my small prime Fuji lens lineup.
alright alright alright. Subscribed. I can relate so much to your experience. I started with Fuji and then moving to Leica. I first bought an XT-1 then Xpro2 and then the X100f. Then I finally decided to get an M6 which then pushed me to get an M240. I practically only use my Leicas. It's so natural to shoot with the rangefinder. Great videos man! can't wait to see more of your Leica journey.
Love the POV style. Love how your videos aren't about mindless pixel peeping and actually getting out there taking shots and being creative - what photography should be about!
I started this channel because RUclips was oversaturated with pixel peepers. I want people to get inspired to go shoot. Thanks for the kind words! 🙏🏾🙏🏾
This guy with lights on his hands - great photos, a new preset - juicy colors, a Guy with a cigar - perfect photo! I think that this lens is perfect for streetphoto.
This my first video of yours I seen, insta-subscribed. That dancing man at the beginning was hella cool. Nice shots. I’ve got the same lens on my xpro3.
This is a geat video and I can't understand why don't you have more. You are great on camera, you have good editing abilities and so so much to say and teach! Please make more!
Thank you for the words of encouragement! You're right, I should be uploading more frequently and I will be! Thanks for watching and the kick in the a**. :)
I thoroughly enjoyed this one. The POV provides a unique perspective for someone like me who isn't a city dweller. It almost makes me want to drive up to NYC and give it a try.
I was in New York City last weekend, and I was shooting the streets with a Fujifilm Natura S, a point-and-shoot film camera with a 24mm f/1.9 lens. Much like you and the 16mm lens on the X-Pro2, it is definitely wider than my preferred angle of view, but I loved the challenge of getting close to people, even for an environmental portrait. You definitely can't stand across the street and be incognito with a wide-angle lens. I'm glad you had fun with this lens.
Was on the fence about this lens. I shoot a lot of bike life moments and I am close to the riders when I do it, which cuts off that bottom wheel at 35mm (x100f). When I saw your video I knew I had to give it a shot. I appreciate your help with the decision. Keep doing you!
I’d like a POV video on the 18mmf2 aswell. I own that one and thinking about selling that and get the 16f2.8 instead but I really don’t know. Like the 18 really much, but its af is kinda slow sometimes.
Awesome video mate! This video really put me over the edge. Buying it now. Btw, that was some smart thinking with the slow shutter speed with the dancer. Brilliant man!
+++ on the fujicrons! my first was a real summicron 50/2DR on my m3. after fuji arrived, I've added the 23/2, 35/2, 50/2, & the wannabe rokis 12/2 & 8/2.8. despite loving my 16/1.4, I'll likely succumb to the little 16/2.8 adding it to my collection of silver 'crons on my black fujis. not a hardship. great video, just subscribed. thanks.
I really like this kind of POV and approach, it's a good immersive experience to see how the lens work and see how you'll managed with in different situations. Nice series those improvised captures!
You’re stuff is straight up sick!!! I went to school in New York and your photos take me back man! They are real and represent all that New York is! So rad! Definitely checking out more vids on your channel.
Just got the Fuji 23mm F2.0 and absolutely love it. Now after seeing this, I think the 16mm is next on my shopping list. Great photos especially the slow shutter speed ones of the dancer. Very creative! Keep these type of videos coming👌🏼👍🏼
4.09 - in my opinion, the color has got something of the color images of newton. maybe your profile is little bit more saturated. i don't know which film he usually used, but if the museum is open again i'll go watch in vitrine where his stuff is exhibit, maybe there is also a roll of film.
Great video. Thanks. You are very good at framing your images from the hip; I always end up with half a head or something like that :-) I already own the 14mm, so I am not really sure I need the 16mm. I guess the main difference would be AF speed and noise.
Thanks, brother! I spent a good amount of time working on aim with my favorite lenses. A good tip for sniping people is to hold the front of the lens when you aim. It helped me a lot. 16mm is def a hard sell if you already have the 14mm. I really need to try that lens out.
Great review. You got some really excellent shots. I really like your street-shooting style -- totally comfortable. (And I dig that colour preset on the shot with the woman's jacket.) New subscriber!
I like that you can get the full scene of the street. It definitely looks good for some layering and also being a little sneaky with your shots. I love how small the lens is! Great video!
Love your style photograph. Your emphasize on people as character and your composition always makes your photos so engaging. I love see video of you shooting a 35mm F2 (nifty fifty) I feel I don't see may street photography with nifty fifty. Many seems to shoot wide or short telephoto. A pov video of you shooting the nifty fifty and your thoughts would be amazing.
Thank you for the kind words brother! I am absolutely going to make more of these POV videos and it wouldn't be right if I didn't do one on the night fifty. 🙏🏾
Great video man, really great energy when you’re shooting. I would have even enjoyed to hear a bit of your thinking when you were composing shots in the street, and how you were approaching scenes. We can pick a bit up through the cool POV. Would love to hear more of your thoughts though!
New to the Fuji system, and have an inkling the new X-Pro3 is coming end of this year but, I still went ahead and bought a used X-Pro 1 for $300, great condition. Have heard a lot about the "magic / soul" it has so, we'll see.. Haven't experienced that feel or magic with a look out of a camera since the very first Canon 5DMK1.. Looking forward to shooting it. Nice vid bro !!!
dude, using the slow shutter speed on the dancer was a smart move!
What wasn't smart was placing him in the sky though. It ended up blowing out the background. Ya live and ya learn! Thanks for watching!
I don't mind blown out highs tho! Reminds me of film. Keep em coming man!
@@Stockezy Loved the last one the most! ))
totally agree, nice creative decision
@@Stockezy Those were sick shots. I hope you were able to give him those photos or your IG for him to look it up. Go EZ on yourself. Blowing out the sky has it's own look to it.
They way you snapped these was slick. 👍🏼
The construction guy understood the assignment. 😂👍🏼
PoV with the other Fujicrons would be awesome ! Love these kind of videos! Thx @stockezy !
Thank you! What lens do you reckon you'd want to see next?
Stockezy 50mm f2 would be nice. That is not a commun focal length for street in comparison to the 23mm f2 and the 35mm f2.
@@JeremySchmit57 interesting indeed. That is actually my 3rd favorite lens for street. If this video gets enough attention that will be the next in the series. Thanks for the suggestion! 🙏🏾

Yes! I really liked the

So now I'm your newest subscriber, and thanks for reviewing this lens as I've been considering it myself
Love the POV series and when you get in there and “ninja the situation”. Yes, do all the lenses.
In for a POV series. Great seeing how people approach street.

Sexy indeed brother! Feeling like you're a part of the action is something you can only achieve with a wider angle. I think I am hooked.
would love to see more of these POV vidoes! great video as usual!
I am here because Jeremy got a notification that you finished your upload. Going to come back and watch it when the Full HD version is available :D Already looks like a fun video!
Hahaha! Thank you for waiting.
That interaction with the street dancer is worth it alone. Love it.
Excellent. The POV captures the feel of shooting on the street.
Thanks for watching!
Wow, amazing photos. All props to the photographer.
PoV was sick and intressting!
Great video. i switched to fuji just a few week ago and instantly fall in love with those f2 primes. Reminds me old analogue cameras, which I loved and started with.
Congrats on the new rig! I totally agree about the f2 primes. Every time I go out with a bigger lens I immediately miss them.
6:13 perfect, great Fuji colors!

some these sneak shots are crazy, awesome
reeeeeeeally nice shots! Love how you captured the dancer
WOW!!! My mans was Clint Eastwood in a Western film shooting from the hip like that. Quickest draw in NY hahaha.
Just saw this. Love the POV and the relaxed ninja stealth. Great skills and good fun too. Well done.

Agreed
i love the quality of the photo at 11:48. I haven't quite figured out how to get black and white photos to come out the way i want with fuji yet
This was a great video. I love how inconspicuous the lens was while you shot on the fly.
Loved the colors.
man these photos are ... excellent!!
Those pics of the dancer were hardddd. Great vid as always, my guy.
Thanks for the love brother! 🙏🏾
@@Stockezy...I agree with T. Gordon. You've upped your creative and personal style game!
Beautiful stuff. The POV creates a nice visual stream of consciousness.
those slow motion dancer photos are KILLER!!
That guy was an old school raver without a doubt and still going strong.
Wow you really banged it this session!
This guy with lights on his hands - great photos, a new preset - juicy colors, a Guy with a cigar - perfect photo! I think that this lens is perfect for streetphoto.
It works wonderfully in the streets! Thanks for the kind words.
Beautiful photo
Wow my own heart was beating fast while watching this. You have guts. Nice pics
Looking forward for more POV. Great quick review Brother, from a fan here in the Philippines.
You should definitely do more videos like this one bro! This helped me so much with deciding to buy this lens.
Great content and the idea of the POV on your camera is great - keep up the good work
Love your video's ! Thanks ! Greetings from the Netherlands
Loved this film man. Love the way you have so much passion and honesty. Keep it up dude! ❤️
POV is definitely the way to go about street photography videos. There isn't many on RUclips. Great shots and a great video overall!
Always a good day when there’s a new stockezy video
Just found you channel and the POV style is fun to watch.
Great Vid. Thank you ... and yeah I‘ m on the streets with the new 16f2.8 too 😉
This my first video of yours I seen, insta-subscribed. That dancing man at the beginning was hella cool. Nice shots. I’ve got the same lens on my xpro3.

That color preset at 4:08 is great, keep up with it!
That shutter drag was dope
I thoroughly enjoyed this one. The POV provides a unique perspective for someone like me who isn't a city dweller. It almost makes me want to drive up to NYC and give it a try.
There’s not reason why you shouldn’t give it a shot. It really gets the adrenal pumping. Thanks for watching brother!
So damn tempted to get this lens... Great video brother! Nice camera work!
Thoroughly enjoying this lens. Might still be stuck to the camera when you get here.
subscribed.. new to fuji myself with x100f and will be picking up an x-t30 soon too.
Muntu Blackson same! I’ve got the xt30 now w/ this lens, enjoying it very much ✌🏽
The X100F was my gateway drug to Fuji.
X100 is always how it starts. haha
Scott Magoon ive had it for less than a month and loving it! It definitely attracts attention from other gear heads in the street
"There's a whole lotta dancing with the camera." Perfect word image!
I was in New York City last weekend, and I was shooting the streets with a Fujifilm Natura S, a point-and-shoot film camera with a 24mm f/1.9 lens.

Would like to see that POV review. I now also have an Xpro1 and am looking for the right lenses to buy.. Great job as always,,,
Thanks brother! 23mm or 35mm is always a good start. I would suggest 23mm though.
dude fire lol, the guy smoking cigar pretty funny. and good background music.
I’d like a POV video on the 18mmf2 aswell. I own that one and thinking about selling that and get the 16f2.8 instead but I really don’t know. Like the 18 really much, but its af is kinda slow sometimes.
Please don't, I sold mine and then spent an age regretting it before finally being happily reunited. I just love the 18's 'pop'. :)
I totally agree with Peter, The 18mm is an incredible lens.
First photo just incredible ! Thx, love your works.
Loved it! And yes the POV perspective as well... subscribed!
I’m curious to hear your impressions on Fuji 16mm f/1.4 R WR
You got it! I'll make sure to run it through the streets POV style. I think this will be a weekly occurrence.
Loving the narration and photos. Keep it up man :)
Trying brother! Thanks for watching.
love these videos, great music and outlook on the city - great tones
Simply excellent images.
Awesome work man, I really appreciate the POV shots and the street portraits that you took.

I am in love with this, I am shooting India, this works a lot better than even 18 mm. The lanes are narrow, this covers a lot more of the story.

Great work ,
can't wait to see your channel blow up! thanks for inspiring us to create
Thanks for the encouragement brother! Means the world to me. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
I’m sold! Getting this lens! Awesome video! Definitely gotta master your style of shooting inconspicuously lol
Great video. Thanks. You are very good at framing your images from the hip; I always end up with half a head or something like that :-) I already own the 14mm, so I am not really sure I need the 16mm. I guess the main difference would be AF speed and noise.
