    The stars aligned today and the TH-cam algorithm brought me your video. Nice job! I really loved my week in Hanoi and can’t wait to return. I see that you really like to shoot wide open with your Tamron 70-180. I’m looking really hard at the Sony 70-200 f4 II. I would prefer internal focus, but…at half the price, weight, and how compact it is over the 70-200 f2.8 it really looks like a winner. My wife and I travel full time so my camera setup needs to be minimal. Currently I’m shooting with a Sony a6700 with the Sigma 18-55 f2.8 and think it’s a great combo, but I really miss having a longer tele. Have you had the opportunity to try out that lens? I like the effects of the shallow DOF of a 2.8, but find myself mostly shooting around f8 unless at night or really low light. Subscribed.

      @@scottvaughn7824 thank you so much for watching! In the streets shooting people I feel like f2.8 is good. Allows for more speed, good subject separation and with subjects being not very close to me, it doesn't blur the background into oblivion either. When I'm shooting closer stuff or b-roll etc, I'll most often stop way down too though, like f5.6-8-11, otherwise you've got barely anything in focus and the background just disappears yeah.
      Regarding what model to get, I used to shoot with the 70-200 f2.8 gm, and that thing is like carrying a new born baby in your arms lol. It's massive and heavy. Might look cool and all, but it's not practical or comfortable in a run and gun scenario.
      I never had the f4 version, but I'm perfectly content with the Tamron 70-170 f2.8. it's small, about 800g so very comfortable to use, and the image quality is just stunning. Autofocus and reliability has been perfect for me too. The new version has buttons on it too making it easier to use (i still use the old version tho). It's also far cheaper than the Sony counterpart so for this particular lens (70-200 range), it would be my recommendation easily. The Sony versions have in lens stabilization though, if that's a big deal to you. Either way they're all great lenses so you can't go wrong!

    Another great video. I love the style of the humidity filter.😅Vietnam looks very interesting for street photography. I think I would have an extreme culture shock and would be a bit lost in the little chaos on the streets at first. 🤔😅

      Thanks for watching man! Humidity filter for that cinematic look 😂 Vietnam is maybe the street photography playground I've had the most fun in so far 🤔 (been in Tokyo for so long it's no longer a fair comparison for me to do tho). And your analysis is about right haha, unless you're a seasoned SE Asia visitor/backpacker, I think most everyone from the west would be a bit overwhelmed and lost upon arriving in Hanoï, for a little while 😅

    Hi Gabriel loved watching your video. May I ask what software program did you use for your slideshow presentation?

    • @GabrielAndre
      @GabrielAndre  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you so much for watching! Very glad you enjoyed it. Everything was edited in DaVinci Resolve studio. I simply overlay the before and after photos in the timeline > keyframe the top one to appear laterally using the "crop right" tool (or left, whichever you like 🙂).

  • @ChillRamblers

    Amazing photos, Gabriel! I aspire to take photos like you.
    Where do you usually keep your exposure (M.M), around -1.0 or 0.0?

    • @GabrielAndre
      @GabrielAndre  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you very much for your kind comment! Short answer: I guess often around 0. My 2 cents regarding the exposure compensation tool: it's a tool to help you gauge how you should expose for a scene. It'll display different values for the same scene depending on what metering method you set it to, so I wouldn't be able to recommend an "average/safe for most" value. Perhaps the most useful answer I can give you is: I used to set it at -1 (as many people I believe) because it'll "protect your highlights and you can raise the shadows in post". Probably because you can read that everywhere online and many photo gurus say to do that, so when I started I probably just followed... I definitely don't do that now. My exposure compensation will be at whatever it lands at when the exposure seems to be adequate for my subject and the final rendition I have in mind (or at least I'm trying to) so sometimes it could be -2 or +0.7. I just want the best possible exposure for my subject.

      @@GabrielAndre Thanks a lot, Gabriel! It makes sense. I'm new to photography and bought my first camera (Sony a6700 with Sigma 18-50mm f2.8). And, I generally try to keep it -0.3 or 0 for now. Still trying to understand how to best expose for the subject. I mostly enjoy landscape, but I went to Vietnam last week so wanted to try out street photography too. I searched and came across your video. Very much enjoyed your content. Keep posting, and if possible, do share some tutorials on how to get good photos.
      Thanks again! Have a great week ahead.

    Amazing video man. Going there in two weeks. I heard air pollution is terrible though. By the way few questions:
    1-Do you use a GoPro with a PD Capture Clip?
    2-Did you use ND filter for the b-roll videos or no need for an ND?
    3-I have Sony A7RV and A7IV, was thinking of bringing my 24-105 f4 for street photography. Do you think 105 is enough?

    • @GabrielAndre
      @GabrielAndre  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi man, big thanks for watching and for your comment!
      1- I use a GoPro loosely attached to one of the shoulder straps of my backpack with a GoPro mount that's not made for that at all 😅 in other words, whatever will keep the GoPro in place on my bag works for me.
      2- I used a vnd filter for all the b-roll yes. Not way around it in my opinion.
      3- I think you can make a killer video with a 24-105mm for sure. For photos I think a 70-200 ish is always nice... but lugging one lens instead of two around will be less draining too. My bag was killing me the whole two weeks there lol.
      Hope you'll have the best time in Vietnam and best wishes for 2024!

      Thanks a lot man! Btw subscribed to your channel. You deserve so much more followers 😊 I am also just starting out my channel eventhough I had it for years. Anyways, you are right regarding the weight. I recently went to Namibia and South Africa and I was carrying multiple mirrorless bodies and lenses, my backpack was 20kg. But it was well worth it, got multiple timelapses at night and currently editing those, will share in the next few days. I am actually going to Vietnam for business purposes so I will take it light this time. 24-105 with A7RV should be good to go. Actually I can crop in the 105 and make it look like 200mm with the RV sensor. Thanks for the tips! @@GabrielAndre

      @@CanInelli thanks man! I appreciate your kind words! I will definitely take a look at those videos of yours too! Namibia and SA sounds like a dream trip 💯 I agree on the 7RV + crop ability combo. In your shoes, I would probably do that too at this time.

    Going there soon, but i’m hesitant to bring my gear, as I don’t want to be behind the camera all the time 😐 will I regret it if I don’t bring my A7IV and BMPCC4k instead of the more pocketable Ricoh GRII?
