Street Photography with a Vintage Lens

Hey guys,

In my latest YouTube video, I decided to hit the streets of Bristol armed with my Fujifilm X-T4 and shoot some street photography with a vintage lens.

The lens in question is the Fujinon 55mm f/1.8 EBC, a lens produced around the 1980’s.

It’s fully manual, meaning no autofocus but with a smooth focus wheel and aperture ring, it wasn’t too much of a hassle to shoot with and to be honest I was quite surprised at how nice the results were.

Check out the POV video below and a few results from the shoot

You can find these vintage lenses online for pretty cheap, I highly recommend trying it out for yourself for a new challenge and some interesting results.

See you next time!
