I absolutely love your shooting style. It's very non-invasive of the subjects and always has lovely geometric elements in your composition. Big time inspo for me.

I’ve been finding lately that I’m sticking with my primes, too, rather than the zooms. Only really taking a zoom when I need much longer focal lengths. Great advice as always, Roman!

I recently got the same bag and I'm loving it. I like how it forces me to bring only a few pieces of gear and get more creative with them!

Hi Roman. I have been watching your videos now for a couple of days and find them very informative. Thank you for sharing all your ideas and how to take photos. I am a newbee to photography and your explanations about photoshooting is awesome. Keep up the good work. I will be watching you 😄👍

Same bag setup for me! I highly recommend the Peak Design 3L sling. I usually carry my X100V + WCL & TCL or my Z6ii + 24-200 in it along with extra batteries, memory cards, iPhone SD reader, lens cloth, etc.

Roman you've been a huge inspiration for me to get out there and just enjoy photography. Always look forward to your content 🤙

Roman, I agree with you on The sling style bag rather than a backpack. I switched a decade ago to a waxed canvas Domke Messenger style worn across the body and it’s great for access and security and importantly the look is understated which is good when you’re in a foreign city and worried about security. It’s got a little sleeve slot down the back to put maps or an iPad. Though it’s small I’m able to fit a big DSLR full frame with a couple of lenses no problem. Now I put my Fuji XE4 and a couple of lenses and it’s almost empty so I can slip a water bottle in there as well In one of the lens slots

So many great tips. I'm off to London in a week and the apps you mentioned will be so helpful.

Excellent Channel Brother! Not only do you offer great tips on here for travel photography, but you back it up with beautifully composed images. It's a rare find in the field of Photographers with KZread Channels. Much love and respect to you.

I have the 6L, it’s nice to be able to fit a water bottle and a pocket book when going out for a photo walk.

Your travels seem to be going well so far Roman. Hopefully you're enjoying the new lease of life and certainly getting a fair bit more heat and sun, compared to the very changeable British weather. Keep it coming mate, great adventure, look after yourself and happy travels.

Thanks mate!

Sweet video. We surprisingly have a similar travel photo setup! Mine's is: XT-3. 14mm 2.8, 35mm 1.4. I also keep the baby flash on top of the camera at all times for if I need a pop of fill light.

I've been looking for a sling for ages, and was seriously looking at the bellroy and Aer ones! Looks like this Peak Design one might be the one to get as a small everyday bag.

Many great tips! Thanks

Great video Roman !!!!

Lovly videos as usual !!

Wow- really appreciate the practical advice- even for those of us who don’t use Fujifilm

Piece of light ❤️

Like your laid back attitude to tutoring here ✌️

Same bag. Highly recommended. Usual contents: X100T, TCL, three batteries, spare SD Card and a square lens hood for the in-body lens, a usb cable to transfer the files to my phone (Fuji app is garbage...most of the time). I "envy" apple users for the eco system and how well the watch works. Some things just are not as polished in Android and Windows...not willing to switch though and for on-the-go my Pixel 5 has to be enough. Always nice to hear how you start your walks and make the most of it. I guess the biggest problem is that we often bring too much. Nevertheless, I would like to switch from my xh-1 to an xt-4 (I need Ibis for old lenses) and then maybe not use my x100t as much anymore? Don't know if that would be great...I just like that old thing so much.

The earpods tip is a great one. Will use it. Visited Istanbul as well and no shortage of guys running up to you asking you come look at their rugs. They were soo persistent, it got very annoying.

I'm honestly staggered that xt4 fits in the 3L sling

Cool video! I also love Peak design Sling 3l and I use it more than my backpacks 😁 I always pack one camera body (xt2/xt3) and three primes (16mmf2.8, 23mmf2 and 35mmf2)...such a great bag...

That is a good travel kit . I use something similar . By wide angle is on my phone - 60mm as my walk about and 120 mm for portraits . Therefore on my city visits I use 60mm because I like anything between 55-58 as my 50 lens and the 60mm lens ticks that box . My phone has a 28mm and that works as a good balance with the lens glued to the camera and the portrait option is double my walk about

Ah thank you so much, this is excellent advice!

The perfect kit! Thanks for the tips on the apps. I use the Fuji 35mm f/1.4 and it is so much sharper than the 18-60mm kit lens that came with the X-T4.

Thank you for those apps recommendation. I did not know about them, I usually use Google Maps, but when in location I just walking and shoot photos until I’m exhausted. I think those recommendation will come handy when travelling overseas and limited time spend there. Thank you, Roman

Same bag, I use it with XE4 and XC35, XF18-55. Excellent bag. I also use Everyday Backpack 20l V2, which has awful straps, but otherwise a great backpack.

A sling/messenger/shoulder bag is indeed great for accessing your stuff, and for security. However, it can wreck your back. So I will often balance things out by carrying two smaller bags, e.g. small camera bag on one side with the bits and bobs, phone, wallet, whatever. But the camera itself goes on the other side, either on a strap, or in a second small bag. This setup is not so elegant, but in the end freedom from pain trumps elegance.

Very helpful and smart video.

Another great video Roman! Always love and appreciate your brief, succinct to the point approach. I'm packing a similar set up with an Xt-3 and sometimes I throw in my X100V. I did have one question. I thought that you mentioned your wrist strap in this video so I watched twice to be sure I didn't miss the call out on what type you use. If you could enlighten me I'd appreciate it. I'm currently using one that is leather and uses the peak design anchor. I like it okay but sometimes the leather chaffs my wrist so I'm looking for a softer more comfortable choice. Watching your video the one you are using seems to be made of parachord with a longish leash connection to the camera. Safe travels and please keep the videos coming. Best regards.

Very insightful as always. Just picked up your Istanbul zine and it’s amazing. Would love a tutorial/insight on how you made it.

Great advice. I got a XT3 and really enjoy it. Paired with the 23 F2 it’s small and light. Avoid Lowpro sling bags they are not great quality and after a year mine looks beat up and broken corners with not much use.

beautiful pictures especially with the 33mm

Very Helpful. THANKS!

Thanks for the info 👍👍👍👍

Thanks for the video 🤍

You is awesome Mr. Roman.... great and quality content .... lots of good wishes from Sid...

You said X-T4 over X-T3, if u r videographer. Maybe because of IBIS ? I was thinking about X-T4 but it is too expensive. Maybe X-T3 with the kit lens XF 18-55 OIS would do the work also fine ?

Great info and video! Waiting on my PD sling as we speak! BTW which watch strap is that? love the buckle design!

I have the same bag. It's the best sling for me too but it's heavy, especially if you're coming from bellroy or a general canvas bag haha

I found it useful. I've been running those two primes and an xt4 and I love it. I haven't found a bag that works yet though. Does that peak design sling hold the camera and spare lens comfortably?

Haha - the transparency Mode to ignore people and hear everything was my number one reason to buy the AirPods

Since I shoot with my Canon R6 and my RF 24-70, I need the 6L version. Still an amazing and easy to carry combo.

Great video. So any useful tips. Thanks for sharing the apps

Dude. That shot at 7:22 is 😚🤌

Lovely video, Roman! Could you please mention which camera strap and wrist strap you use? I've been looking for the camera strap in particular - that rounded / tubular aspect of it might make it a comfy option, is it?

I apprechiate ou joining the 28/50 club. I myself are a proud member with my analog canon

Great upload, as usual. Wish you had listed the apps in the comments. I didn't catch a few of the names.

You just listed my dream lens set up vs what I’m actually going to get.

I Also have a peak 6 l bag for my Olympus m1 mark II and 12-40mm f2;8,; 40- 150 mm f2,8 lenses! And a 25 mm F1,7. In full framme from 24- 300 mm.Wheigt 1,9 kg.

Definitely, lighter is better. I will have a look the Peak Design Sling. Thank you for your advices! BTW, I think my biggest issue when doing street is change of lenses, worries about dust and dropping the lens. It would be interesting a video about your technique in change lenses, and how often do you change it. For example, if you see a nice shot opportunity but had just changed the lenses, would you change it again?

How do you think the size of your FujiFilm body compares to a Lumix S5? Loink for a sling that is big enough for S5 with 28-70 Sigma DN and some smaller personal items.

I would add a free translation app or down load the particular language to Google translate app. It works off line. I wear a lanyard for storing tickets as they are easy to locate, store and keep safe. Take a pic of hotel card with address and tel No's, and frontage image. Just in case you need to get taxi back !

I have the xt5 and 33mm f 1.4. I usually bring the 16mm f 1.4. would it be an upgrade to sell the 16mm and get a 28mm f 1.4? I also have the 35mm f 1.4 older version maybe sell that as well to get the 28 mm?

Hey, I was just wondering if anyone would be able to explain the specific benefits of Fuji? Cheers.

@mattg8888

Get the TCL. It is "only" f2, but I enjoy it quite a lot and would actually prefer that to be the standard focal length of the x100 line. I got mine from a refurb store for a bit over 100EUR and it is well worth it. And they sell easily for the same price again, so if you don't like it, just turn around and sell it again.

Can i view Fuji "raw" files on phone using Apple sd to lightning reader by default? Or do i need other apps to view raw files?

Hi Roman. Good video this week. I've moved across to Sony for the big pixel count on the A7R IV so I crop a lot and print big from the subsequent image. I still have foot in the Fuji camp. I've got an X-E4 with the pancake 27mm and used 18-55 and 55-230. All in a Crumpler Proper Roadie sling. The whole kit is light as a feather and very powerful. I was a bit concerned that the X-E4 was a bit sparse on the buttons and controls. Not so. Really not so. Fuji have worked their magic and I can't recommend the camera enough. Too much winging and obsessing about lots of bits of specs and minor differences between this brand or body or that.

Pretty much the same. Sling bag ( Wandrd Roam Sling 6l) 1-2 lenses (50 f2 - 10-24) extra battery and that's it.

Hey, are you interested in the X-H2S that is rumored to be announced on May 31st? As far as we know that's still a 26Mp camera, but with much higher video specs and a stacked sensor, seems like a very good hybrid option. Better AF is rumored as well. Or maybe you're more interested in the higher resolution X-H2 coming later? Also when it comes to slingbags, I definetly think that the sweetspot is the 6L version for the peak design bags. I tried the 3L, and it's too small for a lot of the thing I wanna carry (I use a viltrox 85mm f/1.8 on my X-T2, that definitetly doesn't help...). I found the 6L bag to be the perfect size for an hybrid bag though, I hate having my phone in my pocket, so it can double as a regular bag housing my wallet, papers, phone, keys, glasses, umbrella (if need be), AND a camera on the smaller size like an X-T2/3 with a small lens like the 18mm f2 or the 27mm f2.8, or an X100 camera

@snapsbyfox

absolutely not. If the leaked photos are real, then I think a Sony a7iv is more compact lol. But in all seriousness I am happy with the XT4 and refuse to go for a bigger camera. Honestly if fuji keeps getting bigger and bigger I will need to rethink what I use

nah both are inside mate. the 50 and the 28. Sometimes I do only bring just one if I want to go super simple

There is one BIIIIIG downside of this bag. Although the material is good for durability and weather resistance, the inner side which touches your clothes is made from the same material which is abrasive. It can destroy your clothes, actually 🙁. I recommend wearing it at a lower position so that it moves a minimum.

I would actually advise picking up X-T3 over the X-T4 for video, if anyone shoots more video than photo. As much as I love flippy screens, they get in the way when rigged up with monitors/v-mounts. You can leave a tilt screen open to have an eye on settings constantly, but I wouldn't have a flippy screen constantly open when shooting video. It's gonna snap with the slightest bump in busy environments. Also, the IBIS isn't great for video. Had many shots that would have been keepers, if not for the wobble, even on 16 or 23mm.

There's a lot of hoops you wouldn't have to jump through if you were on Android instead of iPhone! My EDC is very similar to yours but I can just connect the camera directly to the phone with a C to C cable to transfer images instead of needing an SD Card reader and I don't need any of the adapters either. Editing on the Galaxy Fold is a great experience too 😉 Most of the time I don't even bring my laptop!
