    Really like your photos. Your book is on my Wish List! Found you via VISUAL CULT. Its all about the eye, not about the tech. I'm new to Fuji but really loving it after years of other systems. They really are designed for photography and remind me of my 35mm analog days. Your settings were very much like mine. Too much fiddling kills the joy. Thanks for posting. You have inspired me to try colour!

      might be a few years to late but I personally use -2 most of the time beacause the oicture (jpeg) doesnt look to artifical and more film like (most of the times) . this only has to concern you if you use very high iso thou so dont sweat it and just look at what suits you best and take a few test pictures with different settings.

    Absolutely inspirational photos from the few sample pages I saw in your book, hope I could visit Japan one day. On the 'Across Japan' page very last paragraph I believe there is a spelling error? 'I will take you though', I believe you meant 'I will take you through'? English is not my first language so I could be wrong.

      ITs a very quick way of overwriting your camera settings to get the correct exposure, or for how I shoot, quickest way to slightly underexpose the image.

    • @dongliu5002
      @dongliu5002 Před 2 lety

      @@erenjam what method do you underexposure your photo? Today i tested that :
      When use highlights alerts, if there is alert, I turn down the Exposure Compensation to prevent this from happening before taking the shot. But it would result in underexpose the photo.
      And the issue is below:
      As you know boosting shadows can introduce noise in lower light situations.
      What is the best way to do in this situation?

    Last week I trad my x-t2 for the x-pro 2, I've been in Naples for a few days of street photography but I've sadly noticed a lot more out focus pictures than before. With the x-t2 I used zone + Af-c and it was really effective. Is it worth to try Af-c even of you say it's bad? Cause Af-s was not working that good. Didn't know that Af was that worst. Any advice would be very appreciated, thank you!

    • @erenjam
      @erenjam  Před 2 lety +1

      have you updated to the latest X-Pro2 firmware, there was an update that made the focusing significantly better. That said, for most my photos on the X-Pro2 I do use AF-S.
      I find the AF-C on the XT models to be better.

    Durable take on theme that’s “very” popular lately, Eren. You trolling your bud Roman Fox? Plot to rule genre in UK? Something in the London water? Something more sinister😱😁? Kidding aside, good rationale for your choices. Detailed auto ISO custom values, a plus. Good tip on using manual focus for reflection pics. (You must have super peripheral vision, the way you grabbed your cam.)
    Exposure compensation dial can be a bit stiff, IMO, especially compared with a command dial - ever try putting EC on C and using a command dial, instead?
    “Spot on”😁 advice about focus aid beam. I once shot a billiards tournament in low light setting and laser like beam annoyed participants (tough crowd). They asked me to turn it off - seeing how their tatoos were far more elaborate than mine, I complied. True story, no kidding.
    Good luck w/your 1st book. Step by step guide to how you went about the project would make a unique and valuable YT series, IMO.
    Stellar thumbnail, BTW; serious ‘tog, our man in Japan. Cheers!

    A very good guide to using Fuji for street. I bought an XT-30 but to be honest I use it like a point and shoot for street. I am so used to Canon which I use more often that it takes me too long to change settings when using the Fuji.

    • @erenjam
