May 2022

Street photography puts your hand-eye coordination to the test, as vell as your ability to see and frame intriguing situations as they occur in front of you, your ability to perceive light, your camera's technical abilities, and your ability to be comfortable photographing strangers. While there is no substitute for experience, the purpose of this essay is to assist you in improving your technical abilities and camera settings so that things are lot easier for you. With some efforts, you'll feel as if the camera isn't even there once you've mastered these techniques. When done correctly, it appears that all you have are your eyes and the scene in front of you.

Simple Technical Tips To Make Candid Street Photography Easier

Shutter Speed Priority Mode Camera Setting

Aperture priority mode is ideal for landscapes, architecture, portraiture, and other situations where a shallow depth of field is desired. You can use Aperture, Shutter, or Manual mode in any situation if you're skilled enough with them. However, if you're taking street photos, it's recommended using Shutter Priority Mode. The most difficult task is to freeze motion in a scene while keeping the vital features sharp, which requires the proper shutter speed settings. Manual settings can be effective, but let the camera do the job of determining the appropriate aperture. While you want to be able to modify your camera's settings, you don't want to have to do so every time you shift your direction. It can be inconvenient to change the settings every time you are pointed into the sun one second and into the shade side of the street the next. Manual mode, on the other hand, can be useful in situations where the illumination is quite consistent.

EACH DIVE A BATTLE, EACH ASCENT A QUIET VICTORY:

When Mark Smith speaks about birds, he doesn’t talk like a photographer chasing the perfect frame. He speaks like a witness—someone who has spent years observing, listening and quietly learning from the natural world. Winning the HIPA Award this year may have brought his work global recognition, but for Smith, the moment still feels unreal. Bhavya Desai spoke to him about his love for birds and more. Excerpts:

BEST CAMERAS OF 2025

Competition doesn't sleep, and 2025 was no exception for the quote. The imaging industry went through a makeover of sorts, as we saw a shift of priority from companies, which led to them making cameras which were more hybrid in nature. This year we saw the Nikon-RED merger further fruitioning into a compact, competitive cinema camera and Canon releasing one in a similar form factor but with different capabilities and priority. In this round up, we list the cameras that brought something new to the table. Just like last year, we aren't including lenses, drones or action cameras or cinema cameras even though they've got so much in common with their mirrorless cousins.

Canon EOS R6 Mark III Review

It's time to dig out the Canon-Nikon rivalry from the DSLR era! Last year when we reviewed Nikon's Z6 III, we concluded that it's a solid buy with no real competition in the space. Well, that has certainly changed with the launch of the new Canon EOS R6 III. Priced at *₹2.44L puts it above its entry-level sibling - the R8 and below the flagship R5, R3 & R1 bodies. It also squarely sits in the same price bracket as the Nikon Z6 III which is interesting for the competition!
