Great vid man. The XA does have the compensation switch too. The XA2 does not. Hope you manage to make it to the XA4. Inspiring as ever.
you are 100% correct! the XA does have have the compensation wheel. I just tried the XA for a few hours and hated the focusing patch so much that I didn't really pay a lot of attention to the rest of the features (like the aperture selection). my bad. I'll stick this comment so I stand corrected. thanks for pointing this out, man! :)
It appeared to me that that people were mostly unamused by having their photo taken :)
You are a true story teller Eduardo! You have an amazing ability to tell someone's story in a single frame that is personal, individual and delicately captured, you are a far more skilled photographer than you ever seem to admit ;)
This is one of the best street photography videos I have seen so far. I am not only talking about your photos, but also the whole presentation and espescially the fantastic choice of music. Around two minutes in I had to pause to 'hit that subscribe button'. Awesome work!
This might be one of my favorite episodes yet. So many great shots. Thanks for the content as usual :)
Hey Eduardo, just wanted to congratulate you on yet another great episode. Keep up the good work, you are creating really entertaining and quite useful content :) Love from Berlin
I always love to watch another video of yours Ed! Your photography is always inspiring. Making characters out of the strangers on the street
So happy to see that you followed my suggestion from the XA2 video :) Also, 4:37 is a killer shot!
I really think your street photos are getting better and better each episode! Thanks for you effort in creating these videos, they're really inspiring
ive enjoyed this video so much, not only cuz im looking to get this camera but also because your photos are amazing and the way to take street photography with such confidence and no fear is amazing. my social anxiety could never allow me to do so! inspired me to get on of these!
One of my favorite videos of yours yet! It was so funny seeing people's reactions to your shooting. I have an XA myself, but I can definitely see how the click-stop focusing of the XA2/3 would be faster in certain situations.
Thanks for the wonderful review Eduardo!
you're so inspiring, eduardo! I just started seriously persuing this hobby about half a year ago. you show me that no fancy, expensive gear is needed to get some lovely shots done. these cameras you use here have some serious charme :) I'll try to get my hands on this or something similar!
What i've learned from you Ed if to move my body more. I love your now classic 'frame then squat' move - gives a different perspective
superb shots. as always!
Really loved the pictures in that episode!
Always enjoy your videos. Great work.
Salieron muy buenas fotos, siempre es genial ver los episodios, cada vez más.
Me inspira mucho y me hace muy feliz ver tus videos, vivo cerca de plaza de armas y recorro esos lugares todos los días sacando fotos, y las posibilidades nunca se agotan, ¡siempre hay algo nuevo o novedoso que encontrar! Ahora mi único trabajo es vender y reparar cámaras viejas así que muchos modelos pasan por mis manos. También es muy bacán que te tomes la molestia de poner los subtitulos en tu idioma nativo jeje, gracias por los buenos momentos ^:^ si algún día vienes a chile de nuevo salgamos a sacar fotos (broma). Chau!
Totally hooked on your videos! Truly fantastic street photography and great pocketable choice of cameras (the reason I stumbled across the channel). Keep up the amazing work :)
Everytime you do these videos, I get a rush of motivation and inspiration to go out and shoot.
Some cracking shots as always.
What a great eye you have man. Inspirational stuff man always.
The way he walks up on people is so brave and hilarious… I don’t think I could do it 😂😂😂
Bro, I just died on the expression of the woman's face (second Picture). You're such an inspiration, keep it up.
Again a lovely movie! Thanks for your inspiration!
Finally...some street photos made with taste..where u feel some motion, like somethings going on..story...etc.
So many street photos i get to see (from youtubers mostly) feel more like a quality/sharpness tech test. Zero story. Barely any subjects.
What im trying to say is..good job, man. U got a good feel and good eye. Keep sharing these.
Just my 2cent of improvement, if i may....- change the music if you can... makes me very nervous & impatient as a viewer :)
I know I'm two years late, but I agree with everything you just said.
You just summed up r/StreetPhotography.
Wow, the pictures are amazing!
These photos are freaking awesome man!
I love your photos, I am sometimes too scared to go up so close to somebody, and miss some great shots. I have to work on my fear of being punched in the face :P
These photos are super sweet and came out super sharp with the vista!
Excellent video. Your photos are very inspiring!
These are some of your best photos in my opinion.
Great video as always.
Love the sound of that shutter! And love Santiago! I was there for work a decade ago. I hope I can visit in the future.
Hi Eduardo
Nice video. If I am not mistaken the XA3 has DX code capabilities when using DX film. In this case changing the ASA switch will make no difference. I think at least one other viewer has pointed out that the XA also has a 1.5 stops compensation lever, so I won't mention that
David
Some amazing shots man, keep it up
fabulous video once again Eduardo, the photos are brilliant. BTW, the XA does have the exposure comp switch. On the XA2, the switch is a battery check / self timer ✌🏼
Hello, Eduardo! Thank you for great videos! The original XA has an easy to use +1.5 exposure compensation switch at the bottom. At least mine got it. Keep it up! 👍🏻
Great episode! Nice to see a Polish photographer's book behind you. Greetings from Poland and thanks for inspiration! ;D
1:08 is the best picture I've ever seen of yours - Well done Eduardo
Another great series, Eduardo. It looks like the EC worked great on the shot of the girl.
love your style, such a ninja!
You do move like a ninja when you take pictures, impressive.
Great review.
i love this video!! the best street photog video i've seen
Great film or super sharp lens or both. One of your best vids buddy! Cheers
Awesome work as always. I really liked this because it seemed like you took bolder daring pictures. Letting your subjects know you are taking a picture of them. Also sweet j-crew shirt. I have the same one. LOL. Just wondering did u notice the heart protruding out of the box in the shirt? Keep up the good work
Gracias Eduardo! Great video, hopefully one day you can review the olympus stylus epic.
beautiful shots
You're doing an awesome job
Your pictures turned out so good, Ed! Seems like a fun and simple camera. I like it.
My man! Yes, the XA series are quite fun little cameras. :)
I like these kind of review
It remind me to Documentary film or movie : )
Keep going man!
Differences between XA2 and XA3 are DX coding, backlight compensation, 1600 maximum ISO, and a redesigned light trap in the door.
A neat thing with both models is the distance setting reverts to the middle when you close the camera, so grab shots have a better chance of being in focus. To manually set ISO on the XA3 you need to cover the DX panel on the film cassette, or DX will override your chosen film speed. All compact P&S cameras are a compromise, but the XA3 is the least compromised, most practical solutions for the greatest variety of likely uses.
I swear that there is not one image that this guy produces that I would not be proud of if I took it myself. I know "street photography" is a popular genre, but he has a natural talent (I would say) beyond measure.
Thank you for this review c:
I have xa2. Great little camera. And yours ninja style street photography is epic :) I wish I dare to have that style.
Photos are amazing!!!
nice shots!
i love this video and the pictures
great shots
Girl at 1:37 was really pretty. These are great shots. Always an amazing job. I've always liked Agfa colours.
You're great, your pictures too!
Great video! Tienes huevos! Great shots
I’ve had my xa3 for over a year now and never use it cause I’m a camera hoarder with tons of toys lol. But this has inspired me to pull it out of the treasure chest and put some use to it.
Great photos dude. I carry one all the time. Lovely little camera.
Nice shots this time!
Me encanta fotografia y tu serie hermano, pero hay unos momentos que los videos me sirvem como una banda sonora cuando estoy trabajando en otra cosa. Thumbs up!
Estas cámaras son point and shoot o realmente hay que hacer mediciones? Me gustaría saber porque quisiera adquirir una compacta pero con mayor calidad que una desechable
Love your " stealth " style of shooting....take a picture then move away fast 😃
4:38 I really, really like this one. Exquisite framing.
is there any compact camera with 50mm lens?
The photo at 4:07 is just fantastic!
I always enjoy watching your videos. I am going to name your shooting style "shock and awe street photography ".
1:09 I literally laughed out loud!!!! Hahah such a great expression!
Great dude, particularly at 4:08 !
It would be cool if you tried the XA4 which has a 28 mm lens and also a macro option that the rest don't have! It's becoming quite expensive though
I am still surprised that you did not like the XA because it ist probably my favourit film camera and i think for a camara that size the rangefinder works very well. However not everyone can like the same camera. Nice Videos!!!
Bravo!
Da lata ver a la gente tan estrenada y a la defensiva en Santiago... si pudieras decirme donde consigues tanta variedad de films? a lo más en Santiago he encontrado Ektar y Portra si no me equivoco. A todo esto buenísimos videos !
The Canon AV-1 also has a convenient button for +3/2 stops backlight exposure compensation.
Yo Ed, what do you think about the olympus stylus epic (mju ii)?
How so you meter using this camera?
thats actually a beatiful episode! i like the eos m video quality aswell. how do you handled it? do you grade a lot?
Very good
I think you can wiggle the ASA on the xa2 for backlight compensation but on the xa3 you can only use the +1.5 lever as the DX coding reading overrides the front setting
deberías hacer un libro de tu street photography!
Amazing street photography !
These little Olympus cameras do such a good job. I question why I still pack a SLR around.
I like your photos. How do you scan your negatives?
hey. love your videos. would be great to see you testing the Canonet QL17 GIII. I shoot with this camera for a while now and for me its the perfekt street shooter.
Great shot by the cameraman at 2.30! :)
Love your videos. I just picked up a film camera. Can you do a Minolta HiMatic 7s video?
I noticed one thing watching your videos: you really do like lower angle shots 😅 Your work is fantastic and very inspiring!!!! Have you ever shot with a Nikon F3? Would love to see you shoot with it
In my opinion it is not possible to change the ISO/ASA with any version after the original Olympus XA because all of them will read the DX code on the film itself and ignore the setting. Maybe you can manually set the ISO when you tape all DX code squares.
what video camera are you using to record your recorridos?
Santiago ia where nearly all my family live, so watched thia video with great interest, hoping to see someons I knew
5:47 - Stanisław Markowski (from Poland). Nice album!
this kinda makes me rethink the xa2 I sold a year back
I also really love the fact that you re able with every XA camera to fit 40 photos on a single 35mm film because of the fact the winding mechanism is so fail proof.
Really? What film are you using
Great photos Eduardo but the XA has the same switch for backlight compensation
