Not really! I find that in the rain it's easier to go unnoticed with such a small flash as on the X100V, especially if people are more concerned with avoiding getting wet. Additionally, many people may just think I'm taking photos of the general scenery or whatever's behind them or near them (which is where I'll tend to be looking while taking the shot, then they'll often look over in that same direction to see what I was taking a photo of) If they do look or notice me, I just smile and nod/acknowledge them, and haven't had any problems. But, I do exercise some discretion as to when I'll actually use the flash, and try to judge each situation/subject. Generally speaking, it's rare that I'll use it on the street (especially when it's not raining or night time)
Great vid mate. Im actually amazed at the weather sealing on the x100v.. that's crazy! It looks like such a capable camera. Sydney is a funny old city, especially in the rain. Lots of greys then pops of light. Loved the video mate, I'll definitely check out more on this and your film channel!
I took my X100v out on a rainy photowalk about the same time in Melbourne and the next day the aperture ring was stiff and squeaky and I thought I might have to take it to get serviced. It seems good now, but gives me pause though about the weather sealing.
i love my x100v as well! especially with weather sealing, it’s perfect for everyday use!!
Man you are brave to use flash. Great work and great to see you are enjoying the fuji.
Hashem McAdam content is always welcome! Cool video man. Really enjoyed that.
Appreciate it!
I sold my X100T about a year ago and after watching this it has given me the strongest desire to buy a new X100 camera again... Great video!
Thanks! I was using a clip that I bought on Amazon
Did you get many reactions to the use of flash? Great shots btw, and looking forward to next Sydney video

love your video, greeting from Malaysia
Thank you!
Love all your shots in this video. Especially the shot with the Asian girl and the yellow umbrella 👌🏼👌🏼
Thank you!
My home turf! Really great to see another photographers perspective, your shots are fantastic!
Thanks a lot!
Delightful video as always.
Thank you 😀
Great stuff, Hashem. Some really nice frames in this, looks like the X100V is working out pretty well for your street work.
I am pleasantly surprised that I like the images from the Fujifilm camera....what is your overall rating on it?
Pretty great! I would say 8.5 or 9 out of 10 😁
Great walk through Sydney, shooting with the X100V in such inclement weather. Fantastic results.
Thank you!
Did you ever notice the lens hood blocking some of the flash?
I did actually! I learnt after a noticing its effect in a few of my shots to take it off when using flash
really cool shots! love the flash photos
Thank you!
This was a great video Hashem.. Great to see you at work on the street :)
Thank you!
I had no idea you had this channel aside from PF. Just subbed!
cool
Great job braving the rain!!! It was so cold and wet! The shots look fantastic esp using flash I gotta try that too.
Thanks Alan! Sorry we didn't get a chance to meet up also... Next time
Holy crap dude you're confident enough to use flash on the street 😂 oof. People are so uptight sometimes I'd be afraid.
Love the black and white! Have you tried fuji recipes yet? I have one based on tri-x and it's probably my favourite recipe to shoot of all.
I have, but not on this camera.
Great vid mate. Im actually amazed at the weather sealing on the x100v.. that's crazy!

Thanks so much!
@@hashemmcadam Pleasure mate!
are you using a chest strap with a gopro?
I was using a clip which I bought on amazon
Please share your AF settings with us :-)
there's still no way I dare use the X100V in that sort of rain; annoying umbrella all the way for me!
I took my X100v out on a rainy photowalk about the same time in Melbourne and the next day the aperture ring was stiff and squeaky and I thought I might have to take it to get serviced. It seems good now, but gives me pause though about the weather sealing.
Oh no! Even with a filter mounted to the lens?
@@hashemmcadam this was with a fuji adaptor and a third-party 49 mm filter to weather seal it. It seems fine now, but something to worry about
Just goes to show it's not about digital/film. Great photos, the one at 1:45 is great
Agreed, and thank you!
GREAT JOB MAN!
Thanks!
Great video and photos! Can I ask what mic / audio setup you are using in your talking head?
Thanks! That was the Canon 5D with 28mm 1.8 USM, and the audio is a Rode Podmic plugged into a Klark Teknik CT1 booster, and M-Audio interface.
what strap are you using bro?
nvm checked description haha, thanks man!
Glad you found it! Mine actually started to come apart recently (but in fairness, it was during heavy use on a month long trip)
Fuji 100V is not whether sealing.Is about to be whether sealing (what exactly 98% means?).About is a complete NO for me.
Fair enough! :-)
