Street Photography Without The Bullshit.


Camera Theft in Portugal? | Street Photography | Travel Tips

About 30 days out from Portugal. Lisbon and Porto, street photography, and the forums are full of one topic. Theft.

I don’t want any of my cameras stolen. I have been dumb enough to walk Naples at 2 in the morning doing night street photography and got approached a couple of times. It turned out fine. I would rather not test my luck again.

So I am asking you. Been to Lisbon or Porto with a camera? What did you carry, what would you leave home?

My problem is the lineup. I’m a Fujifilm addict who just bought a Canon R8, and I shoot a lot of long lens street work, which means a significant camera. The thinking right now is small and under the radar. The X-E2 with a pancake. Or the X-Pro2. The X100VI stays home, because I am not wearing it around my neck like the fashion accessory it normally is.

Talk me into it or out of it. Comments.
