Hey man just so you know, if you set the a7III up with back-button focusing, you can program the AEL button to do an impromptu manual focus. Its insanely useful when you just need MF for one shot, cuz you can just hold that button down, manually focus, take the shot, and when you release the AEL button it'll be back in AF where you left it. Great video as always, my friend.

The vibe am getting with your video's are so good! Keep up the good work 🙏

A title like that gets me every time. Can't wait to watch the video

Chance upon your video as I need some ideas on street photography. I’ve been using the 50mm for just portrait shot. And here, you’re bringing in a different way! So cool!

London has changed so much in the 10 years since I moved away. Another great vid Sam.

I LOVE IT POV - Great photos

Best video yet, love the tones and colour.

I’m loving this POV

Love the lighting

Loved this ; Covent Garden so quiet

This gives me motivation to start doing POV coz it’s seems fun 😆

Love this so much!! I don't even know how these different ideas come to your head lmao

Another amazing video!!!!!🔥🔥

Love it Sam... I always think "harsh light, black n white"

I'm watching from Japan! I've been watching your videos for a while now. thank you so much for the great videos and pictures!

Cracking shots 🔥🔥🇬🇧

I love the videos with this lens, its the main one I use

Another great POV mate keep smashing it dude

Great stuff, I’m just starting people/ street photography, you have some nice ideas with the light and shadow shots 😊

Cheers from another A7iii street shooter!

Awesome video!! I'm definetly going to think about trying out some of your styles, keep it up!!

Only a couple of secs through, already loving the vibe 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Very inspiring as always.heading upto London tomorrow to have a go myself!

great video man, very inspiring stuff

Really love the content my guy!! You deserve way more recognition!! Keep up the great work! (P.S. bought the presets a while ago and really love them!!)

May i ask how do you work your edit, im just starting with photography and i have a 50mm. i really like the outcome of your shots, i have been doing some research but a photographers perspective is a big help. thanks OpticalWander.

Good work 🔥

I'm always inspired by how much content you can make in a single walk. How many hours would you say you spend walking and shooting to get this many great shots? I always feel like I'm out for hours, only to pull 7-10 minutes(ish) of content. could just be bad planning on my part.

Great photos

I love this POV, it’s better than Netflix 🔥🔥

I tried out a 50mm f1.8 last week too. Definitely can see why people like that focal length

what focus mode do you normally use? center? and you doing iso auto? snapping a lot of cool shots with dynamic lighting on the fly.

Are these how the pics look stock? Or did you use any software to highlight ? great stuff man !!

Hi l love what you are doing keep doing what you're doing , Please upload a video about camera settings (a7iii)

you have a great voice, keep singing

Sun day is fun day

Beautiful work! Those results are after editing?

So is this budget lens recommended for photography and video?

Thanks for the tour! I actually shot with you, lol!

Can't wait to do this when I get to London soon.

Hey. Do you use a filter while shooting during the day?

hi man good work

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I recently bought a Sony A7R2 for 1,300 at Best Buy and the Sony 24-105 G and that lens you are using the Sony 50mm 1.8 for 200 bucks...Im just starting off in photography but what do you think of my purchase? The Sony A7R2 is still pretty good do you agree? The pictures I'm getting are pretty awesome with these lens but that 50 is no joke for the price...pretty insane but love your videos and you are very amazing and make me want to get better

I wish I lived in or near such a shootable area

what are your thoughts on putting the camera settings used for said images? or would that be too time consuming. Regardless, i love the videos as always Sam thank you!

can you try street photography with different cameras like the fujiflm x-e4

The picture at 1:49 is probably one of the coolest pictures I've ever seen, that too from that window wtf

Hi, do you have a tamron 35 f2.8 lens sony FE? Make a video like this about its capabilities, thanks!

Great minds think alike!! I just got done with a photo shoot in my area with my 50mm 1.8 📸📸

9:56 "que surrealista tío"

7:22 got me good XD

Dope vid bro! If I don’t have g master cash. Is there another lens you would recommend for A7riv shooter that has the tamron 70-180mm and tokina 85mm already? My other lenses are aps-c and I want to take advantage of the 61 megapixels

How did you get such deep photos?

50mm 1.8 has unreal price performance

Are the photos you show after taking the shot processed or the raw photo straight from the camera?

ISO 100 and shutters speed of 1/1600? I would get pitch black images doing that, and I also have a 50mm 1.8. Is this all some a7 III magic? :( I only have a 250D (bought 3 days ago). If my camera sucks that much, please tell me and I'll return it and spend double the money to at least get a a7 II :D

Do you think 35 is better for most situations than 50?

This street Photographers making me wanna switch to Sony 😂 insane burst speed and focus is insane...

The laws where you live must be different here in VA. Most people aren't allowed to take photos of random people or businesses unless we get permission first or have a business license for our photography. I am trying to get a LLC right now just to make things easier to get more business in and so I can attend for Car related events.

I would like to know if the Sony Alpha 7III shoots raw photo while recording video, can anyone help me?

Hey, how some of those photos are shot on f 1.8 and the background is not blurred? That's a legit question I'm new to photography so I really want to learn those kind of things. 😅

@Opticalwander

11 ай бұрын

it's to do with the where the subject is. if they are closer to the lens then background will be more blurry if they are further away lets say, on the opposite side of the street then the background wont be blurry because they are closer to the "background" than to the lens.

Please add mobile presets pack of 114 presets. I want to buy it

are you gonna be that guy....yes you are :D

50mm focal length is quite difficult to find composition...

Some Sony’s go down to iso 50 and some other brands go lower than 100 however they’re not good isos to use, I should stick with 100 as should you. I personally don’t see much difference but apparently it effect the quality of the final image or something 😂
