Street Hunt No23 – Street Photography in Athens with Greg Antikian
Introduction
Dear Streethunters.net Readers hello!
It has been a while since the previous Street Hunt. Due to the fact that Street Hunt videos require some time to be shot, edited and prepared for post, we are not posting as many as we used to, so we are sorry for that. However, we are trying to keep our YouTube channel active with our new series called Street Talk. If you haven’t read or heard about Street Talk yet, you can always jump to the Street Talk introductory blog post or visit the Street Talk YouTube Playlist that is part of the Street Hunters YouTube channel.
Today I am happy to present to you with our latest Street Hunt video, Street Hunt #23 that we shot in Athens, Greece.
My Guest – Gregory Antikian
This time joining me is my friend Gregory Antikian, a Street Photographer from Athens, Greece. Greg is a film shooter and today he is using an old Canon SLR with a 28mm lens and a roll of Ilford HP5. You can scroll to the bottom of the post to check out the link with his photos. To see more photos by Gregory, please visit his Instagram page at https://www.instagram.com/greg_antikian.
My gear
So, in this video I am using my good old, trusty Fujifilm X-Pro1 with my all time favourite lens, the sharp XF18mm lens that is equivalent to a 28mm full frame lens. In addition I am using the Fujifilm EF-X20 flash, a compact external flash, especially made for the Fujifilm X-Pro1. Unfortunately since then my flash broke and I am now using a much bigger Yongnuo YN560 Speedlite. For my off camera flashing I am using a cable to connect my flashgun to my camera.
To record the video I have mounted a Sony ActionCam HDR-AS15 onto my camera’s hotshoe using a tripod to hotshoe adaptor that can easily be purchased on ebay or Amazon.
Ending
We shot and recorded the video all morning and we spent most of the time in the most central parts of the Greek capital! During the Street Hunt we had an awesome time and as we took a more relaxed approach towards the whole thing, not worrying about our performance at all. This time the video is around 19 minutes long. It is just long enough for you to enjoy your favourite beverage and snack while watching!
Time to get comfortable and sit back to view this latest street hunt video shot in Athens, Greece!
