Ziemlich genau um diese Zeit, vor einem Jahr, war ich für ich einen kurzen Shopping-Trip in Mailand (Italien). Natürlich, wie sollte es auch anders sein, war ich, zum chronischen Leidwesen meiner Frau, mit meiner Kamera im Gepäck unterwegs und konnte einige Fotos machen. Viele Monate später bin ich auch endlich dazugekommen diese Fotos zu sichten und nun auch zu präsentieren. Normalerweise klappt dies durchaus schneller, aber die Prioritäten waren dieses Jahr definitiv an anderen Stellen höher. Ich würde heute mal die Chance nutzen wollen, einiges zu der Stadt zu sagen und gerne auch zu meiner damaligen Ausrüstung. Diese bestand damals aus dem Fujifilm X-E2 in Kombination mit dem Xf 10-24mm und dem Xf 27mm F2.8. Zu den beiden Erstgenannten habe ich in der Vergangenheit schon viel gesagt, so dass ich hier mal gerne etwas über das Xf 27mm berichten möchte. Aber erst mal zur Stadt…….

Marius Vieth:
First of all, black and white is special, because it offers a fundamentally different visual perception of life. In case your photoreceptor cells aren’t completely dysfunctional, it’s exciting! If that wasn’t enough, you are simply holding a different pen when you are writing your photographic stories. The lack of colors and reduction to shades of black and white instantly underlines the depths of a photo – as long as it has depth. Third, black and white helps to highlight certain elements of your visual language such as textures, structures, shadows and light. Besides that, it shifts the focus to natural contrasts, which is one of the most important aspects of any great photo or painting. One more reason to to love black and white is that it helps to understand the incredible power of reduction in photography…….

Once again this year, I started the month of October in Paris and finished it in New York. Two of my most favorite cities. My visit to NYC was full and so rewarding! I spoke at Photo Plus Expo at the Javits Center as a Fujifilm Ambassador on Thursday and Friday, taught my street photography workshop on Saturday and Sunday and gave a lecture at the New York City Botanical Garden on Monday morning. I met so many wonderful people and spent time with some old friends as well. Does it get much better than that? Here are some of the B&W photographs I captured in the Big Apple this year. Colors to come next! ……

I have been shooting with the Fuji X System now for since June 2012 and as many people know have fallen head over heels in love with the brand. Over this time I have used most of the cameras and lenses but a few have slipped through my fingers. Back in the summer a friend of mine posted his 27mm lens on facebook in the Fujiholics group for sale and it was such a great price I thought I would just buy it even if I used it now and then it looked so small I could just pop it in my pocket ! So the deal was done and the lens was mine, I bolted it on to my X-T10 and its been on there ever since! I love shooting with both my X-T10’s when out and about and normally the 35mm f/1.4 and the 90mm f/2 are my walk about kit this little lens has taken over from the 35mm lens, I still carry the 35mm f/1.4 with me for when the light drops off in the evening or for adding the little bit of length back in the shot but as lenses go this 27mm lens is just perfect for the X-T10. With the 27mm f/2.8 on the X-T10 it about the same size as the X100T making it perfect size for my go everywhere Street camera for when I was to shoot using the super fast AF system on the X-T10. I always used to shoot my X100T on manual and zone focus but the X-T10 changed all that for me, I now shoot AF all the time and the focus tracking is spot on……..

Any attempt to create a comprehensive definition of street photography is bound to start an argument. I have watched entire comment threads flame out and degenerate into murderous threats over the definition of “Street Photography.” As as far as I can tell, we are no closer to a definition then we were ten or twenty years ago. On the one hand it is great to see so much passion behind an art subject; on the other hand, any conversation that ends up in personal attacks is missing the original point, which is how do we define what we do and does it even matter? Definitions are a slippery slope. Many have tried and many have failed. And actually, when we think about most great artists, usually what they are doing is expanding the definition of something. They take a commonly accepted idea and see if they can stretch it to include what they made too. Even if you read Wikipedia’s version of Street Photography , it is a little vague and lands awfully close to Documentary photography. But ultimately, what difference does that make? …..

As you may or not know, I recently made the decision to swap my DSLR for a mirrorless camera for street photography. One of the huge benefits to using DSLR cameras for photographers – and particularly DSLRs manufactured by the ‘big hitters’ Canon and Nikon – is the massive ecosystem of supported accessories available for these cameras. DSLR technology has well and truly matured now, and the fact that DSLRs have been widely used in the professional sphere for well over a decade means that supported accessories for these cameras (and most importantly a flash system) are easy to come by. By contrast mirrorless cameras as a professional and prosumer tool are newer arrivals on the block, and the flash accessories for these cameras are still developing and being refined…….

The evident fact is the big exodus that I am seeing with friends and colleagues: they are switching from DSLRs systems to a more compact system, and the most of them are choosing Fujifilm. And we are not talking just about “aficionados” in fact I know many colleagues that as professional photographers (they are into wedding, photojournalism, fashion, editorial) decided to switch to Fujifilm X series. I have been in contact with Fujifilm for years. We met several times, and I have closely followed their evolution as an interested photographer but also as a marketing player. I have seen the difference with other brands, especially those involved in the mirrorless market. Well, I can say many brands have failed despite their early good intentions. Often the brands failed with their lens roadmap due to demented or inconsistent choices. Also the full frame idea is not that brilliant when it comes to mirrorless. If you want compact you need to stay compact…and now I want to analyze my reasons why I consider Fujifilm the most represantive brand for street photographers……

I have had my eye on the Fuji X100 series cameras for a while although I never could convince myself to fork out $1300 for a single focal length camera. It was more of a want than a need and I already owned enough cameras so it just never made it to the top of my list. I loved the vintage styling and the small unassuming form. I had seen great photos online from the X100S and heard nothing but good things although it was still a little more than I wanted to pay for something I wasn’t entirely sure about. Earlier this year I went through an awakening and parted ways with my beloved full frame DSLR gear as I found my self wanting to carry my DSLR around with me less and less. I switched to a Sony A7II with Zeiss glass and couldn’t be happier. I wrote about this in an earlier blog post titled “Moving To Mirrorless”. This move was big for me. I had previously stated that I would never give up my Canon gear, and yet here I was listing my Canon bodies and lenses on Craigslist. For the longest time I was basically set in the mindset that Canon is the only thing I will ever shoot but the Sony changed all that…….

While I firmly believe that the BEST camera is the one you love, some cameras are designed with street photography in mind and simply make the task easier. Instead of replying to the same emails, here’s what I believe are the best street photography cameras & why. Any camera can be a street photography camera, but like I said above some are better than others at this task. Let me get into what to look for before diving into specific recommendations……

Updated from the 2012 version: my concise city guide for photographers. I’ve added many cities to the list since the first edition, and things have of course changed. This guide is a shortlist of places worth visiting, places to be avoided, and places if you like a challenge… It’s organized by city, in alphabetical order. Name links lead you to any other posts tagged from that location – usually photoessays – to help you get a better idea of what to expect. Certain destinations also have a vicarious travel/photographic guide in the form of a How To See episode – links for those are included, too……..
