adammalcolm asked: Hi Sev, gear questions are boring, but I'm looking at getting a 24mm 1.4 and wondered if you used the mk1 or mk2? I see most have the more expensive mk2, but the mk1 is much more affordable but I can't find anyone using it.

I used both… the second version is a tack sharper and seems to have better AF but that could just be an illusion… i was happy with the first version, shooting it with the 5d MKI for about 2 years.. when i switched to the MKII I changed to the 24 II… I think you should give the first version a try.. or the 35/1.4 which is probably the better lens anyway.. but I like wide on digital

Einmal gepoppt, nie mehr gestoppt!

shooting street in my hometown hasn’t been that funny in ages…

It took me 7 years of shooting Leicas, Canons, Hexars, Fujis… to finally be able to take decent photos with a plastic point-and-shoot-one-setting camera.

I ask Meyerowitz about the combative, confrontational style of street photography espoused by the likes of fellow New Yorker Bruce Gilden, and he grows visibly angry for the only time in our conversation. “He’s a fucking bully. I despise the work, I despise the attitude, he’s an aggressive bully and all the pictures look alike because he only has one idea – ‘I’m gonna embarrass you, I’m going to humiliate you.’ I’m sorry, but no.
