IMO, if the focus is on a person or the design aspect of building, I like B&W. If it's graffiti, food or nature, I prefer color.

In 2016 I switched from my old Canon equipment to a Fujifilm X-T10 and the 27mm pancake lens because I avoided using the Canon due to the size. On my first trip with that Fujifilm setup I instantly fell back in love with photography. That first trip with the 27mm lens is still some of my favorite images of my wife and my father while we were on vacation. Looking at them now, some are out of focus and suffer from many poor decisions on depth of field but I still love the way they look and the way they evoke the memory of that trip. As technically poor they were, for me they were so much better than most of what I had done in the past. And it was mostly possible because I was able to pocket the X-T10 and the 27mm in my winter coat without much thought while we went from spot to spot and by just stepping back a few feet I could frame everyone in an image. Looking back now the 23mm would be better or even the 16mm but that 27mm has such a soft spot in my heart. My only gripe is the lack of aperture ring but what can you do with a pancake?

Hey Omar! First of all, thanks for posting fun and informative videos. Between your vids of the camera and The Art of Photography's vids about the lenses, I went out and bought myself an XT20! As for this video, and your questions about your work and street photography in general... I love seeing someone show their development in an area they're not familiar with - you have to be brave to open yourself to criticism. You ask about cropping - crop away! There are no rules, only good photos, bad photos, and photos that mean something to you (and only the latter really matters). You ask about black and white - it's clear from the shots at the end that you see, and thrive on the colour in the world. Most of your photos fall flat when converted to B&W. The exceptions being, your mum in the Subway (though we only saw that in B&W), the chaps with the phone and the hand gesture (though, not a super strong image imo), the guy with the coffee (which is as good, but not better), and the chess player - easily the best B&W, and maybe the best street shot you got. The contrasty light with the eyes being drawn to his hands and the board work a treat! A beautiful pic! Another fave of mine was the 50/50 architecture shot with the tree. Really nice. Thanks again and keep up the great vids!

When i think about what inspires me about photography in general, i think color! Color and emotion. But, i have to admit, my favorite street photographers utilize black and white. My favorite TRAVEL photographers use color and extensive post processing but... in my opinion, when i look at their Instagram feeds, the only reason i love the color is because they're in a land I've never stepped foot in, full of that star-struck novelty and neon ecstatic newness. The only other time i like color is soft film tones. When i look at a black and white Instagram page, on the other hand, I'm looking for expression, emotion, creativity, and I'm quite honestly judging skill. That's what makes black and white fun. The photo becomes a document full of data, and showcases emotion and photographic skill rather than WOW those bananas are so bright yellow!

Omar, always watch your reviews, nice !!! That's why I like the Fuji X100 series, great prime lens, 35mm equivalent, always use zone focusing for street photography, so quick to snap a picture !!!! most of my pictures are from waist level while my camera is hanging from my neck. 1/500, f8, auto ISO, set to about 10 feet (will focus around 4-20 feet, somewhere around there) hardly ever miss a shot. Also, the little flash that's within the body, does a fantastic job filling in.

I shoot b&w almost exclusively for street (and in general). With the T20 you always have an easy way out if color turns out to be what makes the photo, but until then Acros is the way to go. I think your included shots "pop" more in b&w as well - "bike" shot included. That being said, I still prefer loading Acros in my super-discreet Nikon F4...

Jungli 999 if you only use for street photography, you can’t go wrong with the 27mm. But if you plan to use it for all round lens, then I would suggest to go for the 23f2. The extra stop will help you in low light conditions.

Sorry, I thought just the building facade and the chess players looked better in monochrome. The rest were definitely colour shots. Having said that, my view is, if the colour isn't prominent it can be confusing, so go for B/W. Also, in my view, cropping is just as acceptable as any other editing.

Just found this. Great video on 'how to use...' from your personal experience. The B/W works where color *isn't* the story, like the drinks machine and the duck's head in store window. Chess? Heck yes! What I like to do is turn saturation to 0 to get a quick idea of what the photo looks like in BW, a very easy step. It can sometimes bring life to a photo I thought was bad.

I use the fn button next to the shutter for "back button" focus, that way I can shoot one handed and still use back/side button focus. Works well on the X-E3 at least. I've also stopped using the lens cap for the 27mm, still got it, but the front element is so small and retracted into the lens that it's pretty hard to get anything to scratch it if you're just putting it in your pocket or camera bag.

I keep the 27mm on at all times. It’s a little wide for everyday in my opinion. But it’s great if you like to get in on your subject. I used to shoot 40mm equiv. exclusively, but since I have drifted to loving the 135mm equiv. So together this is my kit. One big old rifle looking camera and a little p&s shooter.

I love all of your videos, but checked this one out because I just preordered the new 27mm MK II. It shares the same optical formula as your older vintage lens, so based on your photos, I will be very happy, even when shooting wide-open. Thanks for doing this review. FWIW... I like your shots when presented in color just fine... but the montage at the end in B&W was great, almost timeless. Some of those shots could have been inserted in an old book of 1950s/'60s street photography. Keep doing what your doing, and I'll keep watching.

Omar- The shot that caught my eye most was the guy and the Snapple bottles. I don’t know if you noticed on the shelves of drinks the bottle of Pepsi drunkenly leaning against another one? Loved that little insert! Sometimes b&w is necessary because, to quote the great Jane Bown, the colours are often distracting. But sometimes, also, colour is needed to enhance or emphasize a statement. You do phenomenal work and I enjoy your instructional approach.

Great video. I liked the BW photos of people. The man with the suitcase was perfect, but fruit, veg and general food shots are better in colour (poor Duck - sad face). That's my two pennyworth! I've just got the 27mm so this was great to watch. Looking forward to seeing how you got on with the 23mm. xx

Great vid as usual mate, you crack me up .... Black and White for me but I appreciate your colour shots also. Cropping isn't cheating , I think that the only thing that's a bit " iffy" is using a long zoom for street work.

I love B/W street photography. I do street a lot and sometimes do B/W for some of my snaps. Personally I just love both.

Interesting differences from the way I use my XT20 with street photography. I use the "flipflip" screen most of the time so it looks like I'm just looking at something on the screen and not actively taking a shot. I still use back button focus though and sometimes adjust with manual and the peak focusing if needed. I would like to try that lens though. Cool video....Oh and I do like the black n white for street most of the time unless something about the color image is compelling...with lots of contrast. :)

Lol! Just look at those bike gears!!! Personally I love the black and white more.. it's more raw and let's you focus more on the image and moment. As always, great video man! 👌👌👌

I like the B&W when there is strong contrast; especially when the object is to protect the highlights allowing everything else to fall to dark. Even with the composition pull of thirds, my eyes were not drawn to the bicycle. So,...

Cool video. I feel the same way when I try to do street photography. Watching this video is making me want to dust off the 27mm and hit the pavement.

Totally off topic, but man is it cool seeing another Puerto Rican all about photography! Also, crazy obsessed with Fuji. Sold all my Sony gear. ¡Coño!

Thanks. Really helpful. Bought the X-T20 about six weeks ago with the 18-55mm lens. Your videos are informative and funny! Street photography rules? Make your own. Like the BW shots.
