This lens only cost me $60
This cheap pancake lens I picked up for $60 has turned out to be quite worth it! Probably the most fun I've had shooting street photography in a while. Could this be the best budget lens on the market?
I popped it on my Fujifilm X-t3 and I felt like I had turned my camera into a point and shoot disposable film camera. I wasn't worried about settings, and I embraced the imperfections as I walked around zone focusing.
Are you curious to find out what lens I used? Or have you figured it out already...? Subscribe to find out which lens it was and where you can find it, in the next video! ...And ofcourse, for all things PoV - Point of view street photography.
Today's Street Photography PoV walk set me right out to an industrial are of the city. I wasn't in the mid to shoot wide and close-up, and intimate, as per usual.
I wanted to listen to techno, and shoot in an area I usually don't. I like to photograph people, which often leads me to the same, busy streets. But same get uninspiring.
I was happy I went out to photograph. I found the motivation in just going somewhere without too much stress. Doing easy, boring photography, but having fun whilst doing it.
I can't take this approach every time, otherwise no good photography will get done. But for today, it'll do.
