I am getting a new lens delivered today, the M.zuiko 17mm f1.8. I am very excited about it, it’ll be nice to have a lens that is excellent for street photography. #mbnov

@Gabz It's similar to a 35mm?

@Gabz That's a scary focal length to use on the street. But for some strange reason I thought it was less scary to use my 8mm because you can shoot in a way where people don't expect to be in the frame.

@hjertnes ha! Interesting! Yeah most of the reviews I saw for this particular lens it’s that lot of people love it for street photography. But the main reason I got it is because it has the (can’t remember what’s the mechanism it’s called) but básica you can switch from auto-focus to manual on the lens itself

@Gabz Nice. I always wanted this one till I got my Fuji X100t. Correct me if I'm wrong (i may have missed them) but a lot of your street photos don't include people. Are you hoping to include more people in your street photos?

@ChrisJWilson exactly a lot of my “street photos” I’ve ever taken rarely include people.
