Great video Joe, love the shots, and those bikers all in a group, glad I saw this before setting off, catch up with you guys, all the best keep em coming mate, see yea.
When I first went to Hong Kong about 4 years ago, I had Taipei in my mind as place to compare to in the future. The whole time we were in Taipei I could draw so many similarities but also various nuances that differ between the two. Both are impressive world class cities in their own respective ways; sadly with complications that continue to try and suppress their unique differences.
Haha the tipsy gang strike back!! :D Nice video man, and top notch picture as always (i think the kinda baker is my favorite)! Question: when you mention the dji osmo, you speak about the pocket or the action? Just curious. Anyway, cheers :D
Yeah that guy preparing food (dumplings, maybe?) just happened to step out the doorway was I walked past which caught my attention. I have the DJI Osmo Pocket - it's great for nimble situations.
@@joeallam Ok, thanks, I was unsure as i have the osmo action myself! :) That's funny sometimes to imagine that those people have no idea that they are seen after that by thousands of people, without having any sort of shift in their attitude because they've seen a camera, they are just there doing their thing in their purest form, I think that's the secret power of street photography somehow, why it gets at a point so addictive either to practice or just to watch :)
Joe Allam oh ok. I’m still trying to decide between the osmo and one of the new 1 inch sensor point and shoots. I saw your footage and thought the osmo was doing an amazing job in the low light.
How do you keep your video so clean with the 12-60 lens ? I am using the new 10-25 F1.7 and cannot get the same clean video with GH5.. something went wrong? How do you set your ISO limit?
still images are fuji jpgs? b roll is fuji h1 with 16-55 kit lens? vlog is panasonic gh5 with 12-60? thank you for the effort and the sharing. thumbs up.
Glass is more important i know. But If you don't use a lens often and could trade it in for a whole X100F in 2019 would you do it? Knowing that the replacement is right around the corner.
The pictures are amazing I hope to visit somewhere out of South Africa next year for the food , culture , beautiful site seeing and of coz pictures 😁 December il drop a video in mpumalanga . N perhaps Durban ? Wel see how far we go.
"tattiness" haha, there's probably a visceral sincerity to that word. I thought you were going to use "character" as the classic catch-all to refer to the charming disarray.
@@joeallam Anytime! Looks like you had a great time here. If you ever roll through again and want to explore other parts of the island give me a heads up.
On a side note next time you are in the Daan area there's a photo shop that is operated by Fujifilm called Wonder photo shop. It's near the blue line Dunhua MRT station. They stock a few bodies and have the majority of Fujifilm's current lenses. They have a free day rental of any lens in stock with a deposit and you can choose to rent for a day, week etc, for when ya want to pack light. Cheers
It can be difficult and at times you'll end up with things very different to your expectations due to translation error etc. But that's all part of the allure to travel and you just have to allow for extra time/money/discomfort. Hand gestures, pictures and saved notes can be useful for everyday basics and learning a few phrases, even via Google translate, can also go a long way.. All in all, remain content with being openly foreign to a culture, with a willingness to be patient and learn. Gentle kindness speaks all languages.
Those "giggling girls" are my girlfriend and her best friend of 20 years. They also happen to be some of the best company I've ever shared whilst travelling. Lighten up and have some respect.
