Wonderful work as always. Personally, I prefer longer focal lengths for street/candid photography. With wider focal lengths, I have often seen people reacting to me taking their pictures. I'd rather they went on with their lives ignoring me, the observer. As they say, you can't observe anything without changing it. With this focal length, you can reduce it to a great extent though
Thank you! That was what I was expecting. My experience was different, I attracted more attention when I used this lens (probably because of the size). Another adjustment was I used to observe at a certain distance and with this lens I have to look far than I used too. I totally agree with becoming an observer with this focal length, though it has a "detached" feeling that I cannot explain yet. Thanks for sharing your thoughts! 🙏
Finally, the perfect video to make me pull the trigger on this lens for my xt4, I find it far more beneficial to see what the lens can do in real life situations than to be told about how good it is!! Great video 👍
@@saaaaaammy I've seen it in person and know what the photos look like. I think the quality is pretty much the same - it boils down to the focal length and use. :D
Saul Leiter is the man! Your approach of learning from great exemplars and trying to apply elements of their style is a great way to grow quickly as a street photographer (or as a photographer in general). Keep it up!
Stumbled upon this video by just searching for saul leiter video's. This is fantastic man! I really want to try this type of street photography; less 'in your face' and intrusive than for example 35mm. Keep up the good work!!
Thanks Bob! I think 'this style' works better for other people, there are some who enjoys this way more than using a wide angle and being in close proximity to subjects.
Nice idea and good try. Shows how difficult it is to get a great image and don't forget that in many cases the subject of Leiter's images were the bits that were out of focus...
Saul Leiter is an amazing photographer and his style and approach could be considered easy to pick up and learn as telephoto is a great way to keep distance and not cause too much conflict. But it definitely takes a lot more time and development to be able to 'see' and create great photos. That was a great shot at 2:29 i love the capture of movement and great position of the skater at the intersect of the yellow lines!
Yes, exactly! Your general orientation on the streets changes. If you're looking for action, you have to look far. If you're looking for aesthetics, you have to look at the viewfinder more often to see what it looks like on the frame. If you spot a good frame in front of you, you have to go far from it. It would take a lot of practice to be able to use it as a main weapon 🤣
Were you using your jpeg recipes or there's some post editing in the pictures? Loved the video and your channel! Thank you for encouraging me and others get more into photography
On this particular video I used the RAW files. My default is to always use the RAW files unless I really planned to shoot with JPEG only (like in the No Edit series or when I'm out with friends/family). Thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying the channel!
Thanks Martin! I cannot describe what that "Saul Leiter vibe" is but I really like it. There's a softness that I think is hard to emulate with modern sharp lenses.
@@KebsCayabyab yes, just realized some of the great photos from Saul leiter were also in portrait orientation. Look forward to seeing your next works :)
Did u use a particular recipe or film simulation,,have seen an urban vibe recipe done for Saul Leiter vibe but think it’s off and overdone …not quite consumer of presets,,,any particular that works for u as a proper tribute to Leiter ?
Did you really use the cinestill 800t recipe for those shots? I am asking because off th white balance setting of 3200K which I expected to come out more blueish during daylight
Like Saul Leiter's? I see photographers trying to imitate his colors but it's hard because he sometimes use expired film. The colors in his images varies.

This was the most satisfying photo walk i seen in a long time...keep shooting bro!! Thanks for sharing your walk
Wow, thank you!
Lo-fi music + nice photos = satisfaction 😍
That's my jam! Lo-fi and street photography = bliss
I like the background music, so chill and relax with cool pics too
Thank you!
Fantastic shots!
Thanks Kent!

Very, very nicely done. Tasteful. Great images.
Thank you Steven!
The bread is making laugh and hungry at the same time :D
Love your content! Looking forward for more!
Thank you! New Episode: Bread and Street Photography, where we try different bread while on the streets 🤣
@@KebsCayabyab sounds cool! Making me miss eating bread over there!
Awesome work, my friend!!
Your art is so awe inspiring…
Fun approach! Love the quotes, music and walk along. Peace.
Thanks Tobias! Hoping to make more of these!

Thanks Sam! It's a good lens! I'm considering it as well (I just borrowed it from a friend for this video).
@@KebsCayabyab have you tried the 56 1.4 by viltrox yet? I’m struggling to describe between the two!

Thanks Adam! I agree, it's a good way to learn and see things outside your own tendencies.
Nice images you took! I love the foot out the window of the truck...gorgeous!
Thank you!
I like your photos a lot. Good job.
Thanks a lot Joel 🙏
I like both your approaches; the artistic side and the entrepreneur side .-.
What do you mean entrepreneur side? :)
Great video and content, thank you for sharing!
Really enjoyed your work.
Excellent

Some lovely shots here. I thought that Leiter's colour style was almost uniquely New York, but I think you managed to embody his vibe here very well.
Thanks Martin! I cannot describe what that "Saul Leiter vibe" is but I really like it. There's a softness that I think is hard to emulate with modern sharp lenses.
great vid! question here: which aperture did you used for these pics？
mostly 4-8 :)
Awesome video. By the way, what kind of wrist strap are you using? Thanks!
Thank you! A paracord wrist strap.
nice video.. made me wanna go out and shoot again.. despite of laziness.. lols keep inspiring others.. more vids.. ;)
Thank you so much Ron! There's really a "lazy phase" that we have to just go through at times 😁
Great video! Great pics!
Thanks Valentino!
I think you might consider doing portrait mode instead of landscape one, that might be easier to fit in more elements in the frame with a tele lens
Thanks for the idea Nathan! I only realized I didn't take portrait orientation so much
@@KebsCayabyab yes, just realized some of the great photos from Saul leiter were also in portrait orientation. Look forward to seeing your next works :)
Good job as always!! Could you share the recipe used or this work? Cheers!
This edited RAW files. A NO EDIT episode is soon to follow with SOOCs and featured recipe! Thanks for watching!
Awesome!
Thank you 🙏
Uii nice! May pa sit-down talking head shot na sa videos. Padayon!!
Maraming salamat Ashley! Sobrang hirap lol. Mas mabilis pa yung whole photowalk kesa sa take ng intro.
Ayos! 👏🏼
Salamat bro!

Sir Kebs, need your help why my xt2 shows black spot on lcd screen, evf but not showing when checking pictures. Thnk u .
Have it checked, it might be dead pixels :(
Lol. Tawang tawa ako sa *bread
*Pandesal. Akala ko wala na footage eh. Ung first few na nakita ko, brown bag lang talaga 🤣
amazing shots. compositions were on point. did you shoot these in jpeg?
I shot this in RAW if I remember correctly! But looking back, I think I would have used Classic Negative and edited from there.
@@KebsCayabyab awesome shots by the way. Thanks for responding you gotta new sub
Thanks Dj!
nice shots bro! ganda ng composition ♥
Salamat bro 🙏 Thanks for sponsoring this video 😁
@@KebsCayabyab hahaha this video is sponsored by
Excellent, is this a preset you used or recipe, can i have it? :)
These are edited RAWs. I basically edit 2 or 3, and apply and adjust it for the others in the set.
Did you really use the cinestill 800t recipe for those shots? I am asking because off th white balance setting of 3200K which I expected to come out more blueish during daylight
No, sorry. I copy-pasted the description and forgot to remove the CineStill 800T link from the last video.
Here's the link to the CineStill 800T pov th-cam.com/video/4_lRxHC1TXw/w-d-xo.html
Does anybody know how to get the colours to stand out like that?
Like Saul Leiter's? I see photographers trying to imitate his colors but it's hard because he sometimes use expired film. The colors in his images varies.

Keep up the good work my friend and thanks for sharing...
@@flushpin I'm slowly progressing with my photography and what you said is really encouraging. Thanks Chris!
That and compared to modern cities the cars etc. just looked more colorful :D
Would you use this lens in night Street photography?
I have not tried but possibly. I prefer Fuji 50mm f2 for night photography.
...going to eat bread right now.
XD eat a lot
@@KebsCayabyab Great video, by the way. Love all of your videos and photos!
Andito para sumuporta at matuto🖤🙏
Salamat ng marami Ian!
Amazing work my friend !!!!
