I have been receiving very positive comments on my previous few POV style street photography videos, so I did another one, this time shooting with a 40mm lens. I was curious about the 40mm hype - Nikon, Sony and Olympus released 40mm lenses or equivalent all within the past one year, and then there was the Ricoh GR IIIx. I wanted to take a closer look at this awkward focal length so I found a really cheap, used Canon 40mm F2.8 pancake lens in good condition, and tested it in a photowalk on my Canon 5D. I went out roaming KL streets with Amir and Azul and got some shots which I am sharing here in this blog entry. I needed a few more outings and more experience with the 40mm focal length before I can share my thoughts and experience shooting with it.

Yes, I like that... Closer to your subjects (I think - what is your normal lens for street work? Shorter than 40?). More 'immediacy'
