Camera too old to link. The #fujifilmgfx50s Fujifilm GFX 50S

What? No lofi hip hop? No jazz music? You can do a photowalk and just let natural sound reign? The pictures can be the primary point of focus? (Killer work, Omar.)

[KCPhotog]

I'll watch & like as many of these street walk videos as you can put up!! No camera talk. No soundtrack. Videos like this are more inspiring to me than learning about the lack of sharpness in the corners. More like this, please!! 👍🏻

[andersblomster]

Love the ambient sound sans music. Feels way more, dare I say, immersive.

[HaiTomVlog]

Loved it all. That horn at the end, though 😂

[robigerovasilisphotography]

No speaking forces one to focus more on the photos and composition 👏👏well done!!

[stephenspiteri_zunkus]

You know what? This was refreshingly different and kind of inspiring. Yes, do more.

[Genv]

I go back to this video often. It's truly great.

[edwardhubbard]

Putting on the readers is, unfortunately, so relatable.

[trevorwood]

Oooof, this was good! Great shots Omar!

[michaelwelsh]

I don’t do street photography and would never think to take the pictures that you do but then when I see them all I can do is say “I wish I’d have done that.
Cheers mate.

[joshmykeldizon]

This is so relaxing to watch! I demand more of these videos!!! 😂

[rambee]

Best video That's what it's about

[kathealy]

Loved the very low key vibe and agree with others - not having a soundtrack and only focusing on the photos supported by the organic sounds of the situation was amazing...kept my attention. And the shot with the extreme shading and the lady in flared pants with boots? CHEF's KISS! Loved all of the captures.

[hierlesim]

Superb: it's good to actually see your work without the "distraction" of informative content (even if I love those as well!). You have a great eye.

[AndysImages]

I just bought a dirt cheap X-T200 and a manual focus lens, set it up as close as I can to a film camera (screen off, manual everything) love the process of taking images like I did in the eighties but the benefits of having digital files. 👍🏼

[diegoskt]

You are the best Omar! Thanks for this

[shadyninja]

You just told a fantastic story with almost no words👍👍

[lukakoprivica]

Love the style of this video.
New Era on YT! Bravo! Marvellous!

[danielbiturbo]

Wonderful Omar, photography is often all about removing distractions from the main subject, here you did it all.

I see this almost as protest against modern YouTube, you're old school Omar, and I love it !

[boris.dupont]

The image quality is stunning and I was crazy about my GFX 50R but the reason why I switched over to Fuji in the first place was weight and size and that's why I came back to my X-Pro3, X-T3 and X100VI. Anyway thanks for the video 👍
