    Hi Mike:

    Thank you for the quick response. Did you mean AF-S for street portriats and AF-C for moving subjects? I think AF-S for moving subjects might have been a “typo”.

    Thanks for being so generous with your knowledge!

    Have a great day,

    Hank

    Hi Mike:

    Thanks, Mike!

    However, I think there was a “typo” in your answer. Did you mean AF-S for portraits and AF-C for moving subjects?

    By the way, you ROCK, Mike. I’ve learned a lot reading your site.

    Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.

    Hi Hank,
    I use AF-S for street portraits, works great, AF-S for moving subjects. Single af-point with both, I found multi-just takes a little too long for moving subjects, have missed too many shots.

    Hi Mike:

    I read in your X100S street shooting settings article that you prefer AF-C. Do you ever employ AF-S when shooting street and if so, under what circumstances? If you use AF-S, do you use “multi” (automatic) or “area” (manual) for selecting the focus area?

    Thanking you in advnace for your help, Mike.

    All the Best,

    Hank

    Thank you Hank! I mostly shoot raw and convert to bw in post. this particular shoot
    didn’t require any tweaking. straight conversion, slightly lifted blacks and tint.

    Hi Mike;

    I hope this post finds you well.

    Another great black and white (B&W) street shot! Which X100S film simulations do you use for street shooting in B&W and color?

    Thanks and all the best,

    Hank
