I appreciate your approach here on youtube. At the same time as you introduce us to your equipment and keeping some focus on the cameras, but your main focus is on the art of photography and image making. Such an approach is welcome since many TH-camr`s now a days are putting to much weight/focus on equipment and this has unfortunately made TH-cam to the new "TV-shop". Anyway, keep up the good work 👍
Hi Roham ! I fully agree with you :) Everybody is throwing specs sheets at you and feed you technical stuff but without using the gear and simply enjoying photography. True words Roham. Thanks a lot for watching and for your feedback ! Appreciate it :)
Yep, nice camera but your cam also gives such beautiful bright representation ! Your photos, okay, finally after chasing the man at 6.53, really nice :-)) As many others, for example 7.40, how colourful or the woman at 14.00, fantastic portrait ! A pretty good day :-))
Great video and Picture ! You explain thing very well ! Your only one « mistk » k was the waffel who s make for touristes and not very representativ of the real tast ;))
nice you approaching the man on 4:19 - I had some issues photographing here where I live and I still need to work on these skills. this Saturday I am going to Brussels in the morning. any tips? I am going to start from the area of Brussels South station. great shot on 6:55 !
Thanks a lot Jonatas :) It's not the most friendly area I guess but you have some nice architecture, modern buildings and can get some silhouettes under the bridge. Should be fun ! I hope you get some good shots :)
Hello , j ai visionné ton essai du futjifilm x100V et trop cool 👍 ,je m intéresse de près à cet appareil depuis que j ai découvert les simulations de films sur un X10 d occasion , il ne me quitte plus , beaucoup moins encombrant que mon 5D m3 , surtout pour la photo de rue , le point négatif vendu sans chargeur !!
Hello ! Un grand merci :). Il est excellent le x100v pour la photo de rue et pour les voyages. Je le conseille sans hésitation :) . Il faut juste s'habituer avec la focale fixe.
Very good image quality indeed. Nice intro. You started great. I really like the composition in your shots. The stalking, although not always easy, was fruitful again 😉. Sunny day, nice music and good vibe. Great shots, the street ones, the portraits and the ones at the end. And finally some proper food 😁 Well done
Thank you very much Alexandru ! Glad you liked the intro: 30 seconds and it took me 2 days to do it :)). The sushi was DELICIOUS but I a guess I am gonna stop eating that waffles :)) Maybe going for some fruits :D
Hi Octavian, great video! Are the images here straight out of camera or did you tweak them in post-processing? Thanks for the settings. Do you use the matrix/evaluative metering or another metering mode? Last but not least - X100V or Q2 😜.
Hi there Stephen ! I tweak most of them and kept 2 SOOC, the one with the smoker and on the bench and the one with the lady hiding her face near a poster. I used the 'Multi' exposure metering as it's called on the FUJIs. X100V and Q2 - YES :D
Thanks for the answer, Octavian. It was a great video. Keep the format! Perhaps show some of your post-processing of the images too, or in a separate video?
I had the X100V and Q2 at the same time. Wanted to see which was better for my workflow. The X100V is amazing and great to shoot. In the end I did end up going with the Q2. Image quality was superb and it uses the same batteries as my SL2. So that's a bonus! Great video man!
Thanks a lot ! Appreciate it :). Yeah, I don't see the reason to have both cameras. However both of them peform really well. Q2 gives u a bit more flexibility in term of editing and the built quality is superior but the price too :))
I’ve ordered the X100V, and I can’t wait to start using it . I have the Sony A9ii and love it, but wanted an every day compact camera. I discovered your page while searching content related to the X100V. Thanks for sharing your experience. You have a really chill vibe - instant fan. Happy Shooting! 👍🏾
Hi Isaac ! Glad to hear that ! I am sure you will enjoy the X100V, it's a brilliant camera for street photography (but also for daily life and portraits). Thanks for you kind words :) Have fun with the X100V and stay creative :)
I added the Leica matching handgrip and the Match Technical Thumbs Up Grip (better than the Leica version) for the Q2/Q2M. With both attached, much, much better to hold on to.
Excellent video again Octavian, beautiful colours, the man on the ladder, but also loved the monochromes, the guy with the smoke, girl under tree and the tattoo guy. Thanks and regards.
Great video again Octavian. I had the same feeling with the shutter button. I bought a little shutter softrelease button to screw in. Much more feeling. One tip, if you buy one, buy a good one. Grtz, Erwin.
Octavian, really good video again! As for the Leica Q2: I bought a Leica grip and would not want the camera without it. A really recommended addition! Best wishes, Bart
I've told you before that you have a good eye, and you confirm it yet again. The Fuji x100 series is great, and well worth comparing with the Leica Q range despite the price difference. Keep them coming!
Hi Mihai ! I got used with the 28mm and I love it because I need to get closer. Loved also the 35mm on the Fuji. I guess it's a matter of getting used with the focal length :)
First of all - what a great photogenic city Brussels seem to be! Need to go there soon.... Can't find inspiration in Copenhagen, these days... Regarding the grip, I would recommend you to get the thumbs up for your Leica. Really makes a difference. I never use any grip on my Fujis, but for my Leica Q, it stays on all the time. The images you got, looks great. You really have a good eye for details. Somehow I like your 28mm shots more, but that is a personal thing I guess. But other than that, I would not notice what camera you shot with anyway. It's just a tool as they say ;) Keep up, and take care.
Hi Jan ! Brussels it's a lovely city when it's sunny :). I bet Copenhagen is great as well, would love to visit it. I am defintely getting a grip, yeah ! Weirdly a Fuji camera pushed me to get a grip for my Q2 :). Hope to see you in Copenhagen this summer :) Take care and thank you for your feedback ! Appreciate it :)

Bravo pour ton approche des inconnus, nos amis belges sont super cool ! Pas sûr d’avoir le même feeling en France. Je reste avec un petit faible pour les rendus de ton Q2 même si j’apprécie Fuji (j’ai un XT 3) 😅 Encore bravo !
Hello Edgard ! Un grand merci pour avoir regardé la vidéo et pour ton feedback :). J'espère cette été approcher des inconnus en France aussi :). Le Q2 donne un peu plus de flexibilité au niveau de post production, c'est vrai mais j'adore les petits Fujis :) Ca me tente bien le petit XE4, j'avoue. Merci encore !
Hello. Très bonne vidéo, intéressant d’avoir votre feed-back sur cet appareil. Que pensez-vous de l’angle 35mm ? Et par rapport au Q2 ? Et bravo pour les photos elles sont chouettes !
Bonjour et un grand merci ! Moi perso je préfère le 28mm car ca me pousse aller plus proche de mes sujets, et j'aime bien ce genre de défi :) Par contre il y a des situations ou j'aimerai bien avoir avec moi un FUJI XE4 avec un 35mm (équivalent de 50 mm ). Avant le Q2, le 35 mm c'était ma focale 'to go' pour la street photography mais maintenant je me sens super a l'aise avec le 28mm :). Un grand merci pour votre visite !
Nice video and a good eye for photos...but really, if the sunlight is too bright to easily see the screen, just use the viewfinder...that's why it's there. Have to say that this video makes me want to visit Brussels and roam around for about a week.
@@OctavianCarare Maybe not but I would go with practical, instead of trying to do something not working well in the given conditions. But that's a personal decision and I have not yet tried doing what you are doing, so my viewpoint is purely theoretical. 🙃 That said, it is fun watching videos by folks like you so I can get ideas on the approaches I might want to take when work quiets down enough for me to try it. Looks like fun, and you do it well.
Fantastic POV stuff mate. Those Fuji fanboys are going to flock to your channel. I have never had luck with fujifilmbelgium - they might have to rethink their pr strategy. Pch is great as always
We’re in Belgium, where “service” is too often an afterthought … And as FujiFilm Belgium already has a few ambassadors, I guess they just don’t care … But not even getting a reaction at all is borderline offensive !
Totally agree Ansar ! Thanks a lot for the kind words. I love Fuji, can't hide it :). I would love to try a medium format one of these days :). yeah PCH is great :D
Hi Ken ! I have filled an online form on their website, send them my YT channel but probably there was too much Leica Q2 on it :D . I am not offended :)
@@OctavianCarare well, it should have been their mission to convert such a talented Leica Q2 user to their camp 😁 At least that’s what I would have tried to do 😇
Wonderful as usual, Octavian. My favorite is 16:17. Authentic connection. As you have some extensive Q2 use, I would be interested in your rationale for finding an alternate street camera. Many thanks!
Hi Kris ! Thanks again :) I got the Fuji x100V for the day to play with it. For the moment I am really happy with my Q2 and if I were to keep just one camera, it will be the Q2 :)
@@OctavianCarare Cheers, Octavian. The Q2 is my sole camera at present and I am resisting a yearning for narrower focal lengths. Thank you for your time.
Un inceput promitator, dar de cand ai inceput sa vorbesti a si inceput mizeria :(. Poza de la 5:10 e ce trebuie, l-ai stalkerit ceva pe saracul om de la 6:55, la 7:40 ti-au cam zambit instalatorii :D, 16:55 cel mai hanorac(sper ca l-ai intrebat de unde si-a luat hanoracul)
Daca nu vorbim, nu e bine, daca vorbim, nu e bine. Data viitoare incerc prin semne sa vedem ce o sa iasa. Nu l-am intrebat pe ala cu hanoracul ca era mesajul cam EMO pentru mine :D
Alors, tu en penses quoi? Je suis fan de ces petits boîtiers compacts. J’ai eu le x100v et revendu pour prendre le Ricoh Gr III. Mais je pense revendre le Ricoh Gr III pour reprendre le Fuji qui est mieux finit je trouve, weather resistant, abec viseur. Bref, on cherche toujours l’appareil parfait. Le Q2 m’intéresse mais pas son prix 🤣
Hello Julien ! J'ai bien aimé franchement. Moi j'ai eu aussi le GR3 et le X100F mais le X100V c'est vraiment un petit bijou, Je trouve que c'est un excellent appareil pour le street. Si j'avais pas le Q2 le X100V aurait être mon première choix :)
@@OctavianCarare pourquoi t’es tu séparé de ton Ricoh Gr III ? Pour acheter le Q2 ? Tu préfères donc le X100v par rapport au Ricoh? J’adore le Ricoh, mais je trouve un peu trop fragile, manque de viseur Si tu devais choisir aujourd’hui entre un q2 et le x100v, tu partirais sur le Q2 ? L’avantage du plein format ?
@@OctavianCarare I think is the focus breathing I find annoying with the lens moving up and down every time you focus but that could be me been a bit picky.Now how do Leica got such a good AF on the Q2 is a mystery to me lol (Leica fan boy) 😂
Encore une vidéo fantastique ! Q2 ou X100V...peux importe tu as vraiment du talent ! A quand des sessions de Photowalk ou de Workshop ? Sur Paris suis grave partant !
Sterling post and stand-out images, especially considering the cam is not your regular use gear. Love the tattoo guy and the gent on the ladder against the billboard. Should not have to run after your subject, IMO - gent w/headphone. Suggest numbering images to make it easier for viewers to comment.
Thanks a lot Paul ! Great suggestion for the numbering of images, I am considering doing that. I chase people on the streets, part of my street photography excercice :)). Thanks again ! :)

@@OctavianCarare yes the intro was so smooth on this one. Loved the photos too! Would love to hear your experience with Leica Q2 vs Fuji X100V.
Sterling post and stand-out images, especially considering the cam is not your regular use gear. Love the tattoo guy and the gent on the ladder against the billboard. Should not have to run after your subject, IMO - gent w/headphone. Suggest numbering images to make it easier for viewers to comment.
Thanks a lot Paul ! Great suggestion for the numbering of images, I am considering doing that. I chase people on the streets, part of my street photography excercice :)). Thanks again ! :)
