In this video I review an inexpensive, yet sharp and effective budget zoom lens that works great for general photography with the Fuji X-T1. This mid-level budget system is all you need for everything from personal/family photography to paid photo sessions.
While this prime lens lacks the high-quality glass of some of it's big brothers, it's still worth every bit of it's price (under $150 used), and I see no reason to upgrade unless I need a longer zoom.

How do I use Snap Focus for Street Photography with the Ricoh GR III? It's not difficult, especially if you don't put too much thought into. The biggest problem new owners and users face with snap focus and the Ricoh GR cameras is trying to overthink how Snap Focus works.
In this video, we try to focus not on the how it works, but how to use it. Snap Focus with the Ricoh GR III is one of the best features for a street photographer. While it is similar, and based upon the Zone Focusing premise, Ricoh takes the guess work out of the process, and helps the photographer concentrate on the shot and framing, not the technical aspects of zone focusing. There are three ways to use Snap Focus with the Ricoh GR III. I go through all three options, starting with my least favorite, to my method of choice for my street photography. Ricoh GR III Quick Tip #2: How good is the Ricoh GR III battery life for Street Photography?1/18/2021
In this video, I discuss the battery life of the Ricoh GR III for street photography, as compared to other compact cameras, as well as adding the Newmowa Li-90B Battery Pack and charger to your camera bag. This includes two batteries, and a charger, and along with the single battery included with the Ricoh GR III, you'll have three batteries, and the charger. A great deal, and something you'll need if you're doing a lot of shooting.
Ricoh GR III owners, along with most compact camera owners, have either had a battle with dust on the sensor, or have heard horror stories from those that have. This is not unique to the Ricoh GR III, but how does it happen? This video explains how it can happen, and some possible solutions to prevent this from occurring with the Ricoh GA-1 Adapter.
I continue to use the compact but extremely potent Ricoh GR III for some photos of an abandoned house not too far away from my home. This was a fun little excursion that included this little house, as well as the barn featured in Vlog #1.
All photos shot in manual mode, and edited in Lightroom. I've also started numbering the images as they appear in the video, so if you have any comments about a specific photo, you can refer to it by number when commenting, that should help the conversation a little better. Question of the Week: Do you enter abandoned buildings/structures when you find one, or only shoot from the outside? Follow up Question: Does the possibility that an abandoned structure could be haunted prevent you from photographing them? |
