govern the pace, though.

Thanks Ann! I get it, I also rather look at photos at my own pace. That's
what my website is for btw :)

As I. I had 2 of them both suffered from the " battery is depleted, no its

good, I should have kept one fpo just for the IR capabilities of the camera.

Don't know why, but this just occurred to me as I was watching the video again.

I really like that photo.

Thank you John! That photo with the mule (horse?) and the mural was totally

Interestingly enough, the mural is still there, or was, in 2015. Very faded
and sad looking, and apparently they added windows to that wall:

I don't know much about the color rendition of the various types of

and now, but the image at 2:51 of the Mule & the Mural is beautiful.

It's the kind of brilliant color I loved so much in slide film.

But, no camera is better than the photographer's eye that's behind the
viewfinder. You've got one of the better ones.

"Review" between quotes because I'm not talking specs or anything, nobody

the photos I took.

Planning to do the K10D next and the K5 after that.

Comments welcome!

Just goes to show how good it was (and still is in the right circumstances).
Your video says to me, a good photographer found a tool that suited his style of working, which cannot be beaten.

What a great video Juan. I love everything about them, and particularly the
excellent images that you showcase. Am I to assume the opening shot is
taped over with black gaffer's tape to make it less noticeable as a street
camera? I'm curious about your street shooting technique(s). Do you always
look through the viewfinder? Or do you sometimes shoot from the hip &
recompose with cropping. Just love your work!

Great video Juan!

I like your style of street photography very much.

Had an MX as wel as an Ist-D myself, the latter died with a failing CF card-slot, but it was a nice cam indeed.

Lovely job Juan. Great audio mix, nicely edited, and you’ve settled on a standardised set of captions (nice touch with the movement). The one issue with shooting close-ups is that small imperfections are visible - including dust. I always give things a wipe down first, lessens the smudges and bits of crap stuck to things ;-)

Top job. We have an *ist D as well so was more than a little interested. My Mrs uses it with a kit lens and it doesn’t disappoint - fine for web images and I even print from it occasionally. She likes to photograph plants which I print on an Epson P50 (black+5 colour) at A5 size to make into cards.

I recently did a paid gig for a boat building charity - a day’s shoot and a couple of day’s edit:
