Whether you live in a big city or you’re taking a day trip to see some sights, urban environments are full of photographic potential.
There’s so much to point your Canon EOS mirrorless or DSLR camera at, it can be difficult to know where to even begin! From the hustle and bustle of busy city streets to amazing architecture, a vibrant urban snapshot is never far from reach.
That’s why this month I headed to our capital city of London, and in this project I run through six fun and exciting ways you can get started with street photography.
When it comes to what equipment you need to take a decent street shot, an entry-level Canon EOS DSLR or mirrorless camera will be ideal, with either a kit lens such as an 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 kit lens for APS-C, or something like a 24-70mm or 24-105mm on a full-frame body. Even premium compacts can work well and help you keep a low profile, this is especially useful when taking reportage style shots of people going about their day.
