    Fortunately I’ve never suffered from taking out too many lenses. I started out on a film camera with a 50mm and am very used to working with one lens. I think I might be allergic to carrying around more than one lens.

    I’ve been rotating three lenses at a time with no issues. One is a wide angle, one is a medium, and one is a telephoto.
    Sometimes I rarely change the lens, and other times I’m switching back-and-forth constantly. In the end, it all depends on the subject.
    I do have an initial preview check to make sure what the composition make up of the lense is. Most of the time I’m switching it’s dependent on the subject matter.

    Great advice!
    My only qualm about carrying a zoom is that while in daylight it's probably the most versatile solution, as soon as night falls, at f/2.8 it's often not fast enough on an APS-C sensor.

    • @erenjam
      @erenjam  Před rokem +2

      Thanks Robert 🙏🏼, true it's not ideal but you can make the 2.8 work if you shoot well lit areas at night.

    Would you ever consider making a video about how you record & edit your cinematic videos such as your journey across Japan and others? Mainly just about achieving the look/colour rather than the actual putting together of the video itself. The look you get with your videography is amazing and its something I would like to try and learn in future to go alongside my photography.

    I've just discovered your channel and I am really enjoying the way you share your skills and experience in such an honest and open way. I agree with all of your points. The extra one that I have learned the hard way is not to worry what others think of your images, instead take the images that you love and care about. It is so restricting to be shooting and thinking "I wonder what Eren would think of this". A close second is not to shoot with the intent of imitating others. You may get a kick out of reproducing someone else's style and look, especially someone you admire, but sooner or later you will get a lot more fulfilment out of making your own way in the photographic world.
    Keep up the great work.

    one of the biggest mistakes ive ever made is shooting with someone. He always stayed a few feet behind me and I wondered why. then I realized he was actually just using me as a shield so he could take photos of people walking in opposite direction so those subjects won't see him taking their photos. never again

    Hi.i totally agree with shooting with people is a big mistake.But even when you do in a workshop or something searching for a different one not the scene whole group shoot sometimes pushes creativity 😊 and gives good results.Which was the case in my one of the favorite photo,people in the group asked when did i took that :)).
    İ also want to add ,one of the big mistakes could be combining the photo shoot with daily activities during the day.put some activity in the middle which makes us less concentrate and superficial .İ usually cannot concentrate both .so as you said planning and start other activity if needed after totally finish the shoot .

    • @erenjam

      True, there are lots of pros to shooting with others too, just becomes an issue if you're never willing to shoot alone.

    I hate having a huge camera and lense on the street. So I got a Fuji xs10 and a 27mm pancake and its perfect for what I need. I really wanna get a Ricoh for this reason

    one advice I can give is buy a lens filter to filter out those aggressive highlights. speaking of which, which lens filter do you use Eren?

      Nice one! I sometimes use a pro-mist filter at night

    If I was using a FF camera with a 28-70(75) f/2.8 zoom lens, I guess I wouldn't need any other lens for street/travel photography. However, this is not possible with an APS-C sensor camera. To have an f/2.8 equivalent, I'd need a f/1.8 zoom, which is impossible. This is the biggest drawback of having an APS-C camera. However, to overcome that problem, I compulsorily carry my Sigma 30 mm f/1.4 together with my X-S10 + XF 16-80for low-light conditions.

    • @erenjam
      @erenjam  Před rokem

      Good point, mostly why I use fast primes for shooting at night

  • @martingreenberg870
    @martingreenberg870 Před rokem +2

    I never suffered from the mistake of taking too many lenses with me when I go out walking. Weight dictated that. I either take one lenses with me as you suggest or I bring two bodies with 35 and 85mm. The third alternative is bring the zoom. As I use Fuji, the kit lens has OIS.
    I’ve only walked the streets twice with another photographer. I am a terrible person to walk with. When I attend photowalks sponsored by one of the camera stores I usually loose the group. Something captures my interest. When I’m finished I am alone and rarely find the group again. What I’d like to do is listen to tunes while I’m walking the street. Never done that before. Don’t think I could walk the street while listening to an audio book.
    A good bit of advice is not to think. See an image that might be interesting? Take the picture. Take several pictures. Digital images are free. Look at the image later. It is easier to delete a bad image than capturing the moment after it occurred. We are rewarded with digital images even if they aren’t OK. I learn by doing. I make mistakes. I identify the mistakes. I go on to take better images or at least less bad images. I am constantly learning.
