- GR IIIx or GR IV for someone who's never had a GR?
You will be. 40's a fine place to start. Just don't come back in six months asking about the 28.

That's not a sign you want 40. That's a sign you're standing too far back. Get closer. 28, snap focus at 2m, and you'll never look back. Buy the IV.
Post #3, in Other - Z5IIc announced, the Z5 II with no viewfinder. Who is this for?
Or at your waist. Shooting from the waist on the street is a legit way to work, it's how half the TLR guys worked for decades. People react way less when your face isn't behind a camera. They see a…
Post #9, in Nikon - does the iphone 18 pro replace a compact now?
Phones are fine and people on here sneer too much. Half the best street work I've seen in the last few years was shot on a phone. Variable aperture is nice, but it's still a small sensor and the…

That's... a fair hit, actually. I don't agree with all of it but I'm not going to pretend it's wrong either.

Which would have killed half the photography we all grew up on. That's what bugs me.
Post #7, in Street - Is shooting strangers still OK now everyone thinks you're filming them with smart glasses?
Agreed, and I would be with nearly everything I keep. But the person on the platform doesn't know that. All she sees is a guy pointing something at her, and after a year of glasses videos she's…
Post #3, in Street - how do you get over being scared to shoot strangers
It's a street portrait. Different thing. Not worse, but different.
