Mirrorless cameras allow you to see life in black and white. In this video, I break down two black and white photos and show you how using black-and-white film simulations with your Fujifilm camera can improve your ability to see composition and lighting, and make better photos.

HEAVILY agree with this premise. With b&w it’s all light, shadows, midtones, and shapes.
A hack i do on my XT4 to find good light on more flat cloudy days is to walk around in B/W, find the best lighting, lock my exposure, then switch to my color recipe and compose
Did a studio photoshoot with your b&w and portra recipes. The results are magical
Nice!
Day one when I started doing street photography eight years ago, I only used black-and-white. The amount of knowledge I’ve gained studying light and shadows and shades of gray, learning to simplify the images so as they’re not so busy to take away from their impact.
It’s so much easier and then you can change to color if you like in editing!
I advise all beginners to learn this way, it’ll ensure your pictures have much more impact and will help you create those images to a much better degree than before! This way you’re looking purely at your subject and what creates the biggest focus of interest. The light and shadows, the style and fashion, humor, and smiles will separate you from your competition.
After a few years, it will become so much easier to spot an image and not get distracted by colour!
Keep up the great work, Reggie ! This teaching format is excellent. It gets right to the point without any wasted time. Looking forward to more of these....hopefully soon ! Be well. Slainte !
I almost always use B&W mode on the Nikon Zf using highlight weighted metering even though I shoot in RAW. And it's exactly for the reasons you mentioned. I can see the light and composition easier. Expose for the highlights. And when edited I can chose the color raw or B&W jpg. I've done similar with the X-T5 and X100VI as well, but the Zf implements it best for my needs! Nice video Reggie!
100%!
Brilliant overview 👌🏽
Very good Reggie, that was interesting.
Very helpful, thank you very much 🙏
Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Great video!
LOVE THIS! thank you
Very nice video, Thanks
Excellent photos. Did you shoot these in full manual? I’m curious to hear how you balance changing exposure settings vs capturing a subject before it changes and you lose the moment.
With mirrorless, you see what you get. So full manual is pretty straightforward to me. I also have 10+ years of experience shooting wedding in full manual so it comes second nature to me
@@Reggiebphoto Thanks for the reply. Sounds like practice does make perfect. 🙂
Yup!
Thank you!😊
These breakdowns are great. Reggie have you done a Acros vs Monochrome video? I started with Acros. My experimentation with filters and shooting a lot in not extensive but I think I prefer Monochrome. What is your opinion on Monochrome with it's filters?
I have not
