Great street photography Scott.
What's your technique for getting a sharp focus on your subjects? Did you pre-focus before grabbing the shots?

This one looks like a scene from a John Woo movie.

Well done.

Post by: Scott C. on August 29, 2011, 06:45:04 AM
Thanks Danny ;)

I usually set the aperture to around f/4 or f/5.6 and focus around 3m if i want to get a quick shot (when have limited time to focus).. then when i see something attracted me, i quickly turn the focus ring to get the closer/better focus before the subject move away... since the aperture is set to f/4 or f/5.6, even if i'm not able to get a perfect focus on the subject (in this case, the man), i should still get a clear/sharp result on what I trying to focus.. but, sometimes i do get lucky even when i shot wide open (in this case, i'm using Nokton 50mm f/1.1) ;)

Let's come out one day we do some shooting  :Cheers:

The M9 is great for street shooting, silent, rather compact size.
If people see a dslr they would be thinking wtf? LOL.
Scott or anyone, organize one and i will join!

Honestly, i think for street photography, any point-and-shoot can do the job nicely ;) in my opinion, most important for street shooting is about how much story i wanna tell in my frame and how people interpret the story ;) very very subjective.. and also, i only have maybe less then a second to trigger the shutter, if i missed, that it ;( that's the challenging part really... also, with a good pair of shoe, in case someone chasing you :D kakakak.. kidding!!

Organize what? Street shooting?

ok man.. will organise one..  any suggestions or opinions regarding location or subject?

A few suggestions :
1) Dataran Merdeka area - can shoot the old buildings surrounding Dataran Merdeka
2) Brickfields - theme is holy site; coz' one can find churches, Hindu/Budhist/Chinese temples nearby
3) Taman Tasik Perdana (Lake Garden) - nature theme
4) Putrajaya - subject is the administrative building around Putrajaya

I agree with your following comments:
1) Any P&S will do just fine.
2) As for street shooting, the theme and story is very subjective.
3) Street shooting, one has to take the shot fast as within seconds, the right frame and timing may be gone and there is no second shot.

I am game for a street shooting (around Klang valley) if ever there is one organised for MWF members.
Title: Re: Street photography...
Post by: takashi78 on August 29, 2011, 09:36:53 AM
I have totally opposite opinion than Scott.
To me street photography doesn't need to "tell a story". For me is just candid moments.
Very subjective yes.
I think if one is skillful enough even their handphone can be used everyday.

If there is a planned "location and theme" then imo defeats the purpose of street photography.

No right no wrong..but in general...it started of by recording what happen in the street, be it a building or the people or a scene (like 2 man picking nose using the same hand, etc)... but i can tell you, street photography can/will have theme/title and a story behind ;)

if you read a bit more on street photography you will see why :) but then again, it's very subjective in the sense that each of the reader will have its own interpretation on the photo that they reading/viewing... some gets what the photographer trying to tell some don't; some see something else which the photographer might not even aware of... to me, that's the beauty of it  :Cheers:

When I walk the streets with a camera in hand I find it hard to shoot people straight in the face, so generally I end up just taking pictures of static objects.
For example I took the following pictures during a recent trip to Bangkok. Taken using a Lomo LC-A+ with high speed film. I guess my kind of street photography can be more accurately classified as "urban landscape":

Nice shots, Scott & Danny. I agree that point-and-shoot is good enough when taking streets shots especially when u shoot it in black & white. It somehow simplifies the whole scene... really nice ...

Scott,
Can't wait to test your Nokton 50mm f1.1.
Do remember to bring it along when we next meet.

 :Cheers:

Sure Danny ;) But i haven't got the Nokton 50mm f1.1 but a very old vintage Canon 50mm F/1.2 LTM instead ;) I like the canon over Nokton mainly because the creamy bokeh and smoother skin (very vintage look) when wide open ;) Will share it when we meet next time ;)

Hi Hobbit,
Strictly speaking the pics that I posted are not very representative of lomography (despite the use of Lomo LC-A+ camera). Lomography pics usually show high saturation and out of this world colors due to the use of transparency films which are then cross-processed.

I simply used the LC-A+ camera for its compact size and point+shoot capability which makes it convenient for the purpose.

Danny: Nice street lomos u've got there, mind sharing what film did u used?


Hi ballaviator,
Nice pic of the Dragon Inn. I used the Fujifilm Natura 1600. It's a wonderful high speed film. However it's a bit pricey at RM35 a roll.

Nice shots, Scott & Danny. I agree that point-and-shoot is good enough when taking streets shots especially when u shoot it in black & white. It somehow simplifies the whole scene... really nice ...

Hi Alvin,
I did not use B&W film for these pics. Instead I used Fujifilm's Natura 1600 which is a high speed color film and scanned the negatives into digital format with the Canon FS4000 film scanner. Rather than use B&W film I prefer converting color images into monochrome using software which provide a lot more options and flexibility.

Sure Danny ;) But i haven't got the Nokton 50mm f1.1 but a very old vintage Canon 50mm F/1.2 LTM instead ;) I like the canon over Nokton mainly because the creamy bokeh and smoother skin (very vintage look) when wide open ;) Will share it when we meet next time ;)


Hi Scott,
The vintage Canon lens sounds very interesting. Look forward to trying it next time.

Hi,

Thanks for the feedbacks

My new cam is a leica m6..  :Laughing_on_floor:

These series are shot with different cams, namely nikon fm2, f801 and leica m6 with various  lens.

The films are self developed and self scanned on my own flatbed scanner

Hahahaha it is nice to see that the Nikon F801 is still being used. I had one of this until it gave up on me. Still have a much battered, but loved FM. Now the M6 is a different beast altogether.
Title: Re: Street photography...
Post by: ballaviator on September 21, 2011, 05:56:51 PM
The f801 is a darn good camera apart from the weight which makes it a feel like a solid chunk of plastic brick, it is fast and accurate i usually keep it underneath my car with a kit lens for spontaneous street shots which can happen anytime of the day. I do have an FM too in a user condition, thinking of repainting it. M6 is different as it is smaller lighter and more compact, however, it may be practically viewed or feel as a 'luxury' camera instead of a tool camera that can survive in any harsh condition.

Btw, most films i use are ASA 400 namely the kodak triX, ilford delta 400, Pan 400 and sometimes lucky films pushed to ASA 400.

Post by: Watchnewby on September 22, 2011, 06:52:22 AM
Wow, self developed film in these days are a rarity as most peeps are gearing towards the digital era. It's good to know there are people still using film. I used mostly ASA 100 film for general photography and sometimes up to ASA 400 or 800 for night shots.
Currently am experimenting with K10D as this body is backward compatible with most of my SLR lenses.

Some "old" film pictures taken at Genting and Phuket.

Post by: ballaviator on September 22, 2011, 08:00:18 AM
Developing flims are fun, you can't really get the feel of the pic if u use digital, that's why most people use films, black and white pics are meant to be self developed to obtain the best control over tones and grain

I have always lusted for a Leica  M but out of reach. The Fuji X10 will be available
in 1 or 2 month time . It has the leica look, manual zoom and fast lens. The best thing
is it will be less than 2K. Have a look at the video.

but the deepsea can still hold its value for years down the road, whereas the M9 might not be able to..

I would suggest that Chris get a collectible M6 (those special editions) as they are collectible like watches  :)

Well said. It's a matter of choice and priority. Problem is photography is time consuming and family men like Chris may choose to spend more time with the wife and cute little boy instead.

 Ballaviator,
Very nice medium format pictures. Well done.
Looks like your camera collection will soon outgrow your watch collection.

Thats a titanium body m9, i have personally held this cam before, Malaysia was allocated 2 units of that cam and 1 has already been sold. That camera is solid and light and the body's clean cut ( does not even include lug for straps) and a special pouch has been made to carry that cam

Don't have a tilt shift lens. I just used the soft focus effect tool in Picasa. I think it gives a similar tilt shift effect  ;D

After seeing so many nice street photos from some of the members here, make me want to start a new outing for fellow members.

Am contemplating to organise a street shoot in KL sometime in December (as I am not free all weekends since Oct till end Nov). Tentative dates (subject to majority members preference) - 3 or 10 or 17 December 2011 around 7.30am
All Members are welcome whether using compact, film or dSLR.

I have narrow down the Venue to 3 areas :
1) Brickfields - can take the shops area + some religous architecture (Buddhist, Hindu, Christian)
2) Dataran Merdeka - surrounding area from the old Royal Selangor Club to the confluence of Gombak River
3) Petaling Street and its adjacent roads - many lifestyles around with some old pre-war building.

Would like to know MWF members preference before I open a new thread on this.

Cheers,
Chng

Scott,

Great stuff you have there on the ol' Klang Bus Station before it gets demolished for new development.

Title: Street Photo Shoot with Scott
Post by: danny on December 14, 2011, 05:40:59 AM
As stated by Scott in an earlier post, both of us went on a shooting session along Bukit Bintang about 2 weeks back. In addition to the great images shared by Scott on his Flickr site I would like to share some pictures taken during the photo shoot with Scott. The first 4 photos were taken using the Ricoh GRD IV with fixed 28mm lens, and the last 2 were taken using Ricoh GXR with A12 28mm lens module.
