Mirrorless cameras are just perfect for candid urban photography. They’re smaller and lighter but at the same time just as capable as their big DSLR brethren. I love shooting with my X-T1 when I’m out and about and I know for a fact that I’m not alone with that opinion. Here are 10 little tips that may help you when you’re out there on the streets! Some are meant more specifically for the X-T1 but most of them work just as well with other cameras of course. 1. Set viewmode to „EVF only“. The last thing you want is your camera’s bright screen to draw everyone’s attention when it’s getting dark outside. The button on the right side of the viewfinder bump on the X-T1 – appropriately labelled „viewmode“ – cycles through the different options here. „EVF only“ keeps the screen turned off while the viewfinder stays on all the time, which not only is less eye-catching but also a lot quicker to use, because the eye sensor always takes a little moment to turn on the EVF………
