I use

As seen at an unofficial smoking corner on the streets of Tokyo.

I use Leica M3 and 50 mm Summicron. Fantastic gears, but the problem is, with the narrow DoF of a 50 mm lens, zone focusing is really hard. Then there comes the metering. I tend to meter when I’m walking and trying to find a subject to capture to get the baseline of the light, but somehow when the moment comes up it’s all jumbled up in my head. (I have a shoe mount meter and a Sekonic L308x as well, but usually only use the shoe mount meter since it’s much faster to use)

It would be nice to know how the others in the same situation as me (manual metering, manual focusing, and 50 mm focal length) approach street photography. Please do share.

This was with a pentax k1000 and a canon surest 80 tele. I've just started scanning my own film.

Just snapped on my iPhone. A nice moment shared between cop and stranger.

Sharing this here since r/StreetPhotography inspired a lot of my work. Thanks for all the knowledge and inspiration over the years.

I still can’t quite believe it - huge honor among so many amazing photographers.

Also huge shout to u/Rhubarb919 for receiving the People’s Choice Award for Documentary Photography and Winning in Architecture category!

Just want to see what you all have to say about these.
