[QUOTE="vincechu, post: 17648, member: 355"] Just wondered it anyone has used or is using a small DSLR for street photography. I'm currently trying to get into street and candid photography and have a LX5 and K5. With the LX5 I feel much more confident with taking street photos, especially with all the paranoia surrounding terrorisim here in the UK. But sometimes I just want that extra IQ. So I've started taking out the K5, but I have to say I'm pretty nervous about it, though its likely to be all in my head. Also at times it feels like it just makes me too noticeable to subjects on the street. I have to say though, the more I take the K5 out the more confident I feel about using it on the street. This also applies if I'm out with friends, I guess it just makes me feel as though I don't stand out as much. Does anyone have similar experiences? I'd appreciate any tips on how I should go about streetshooting too (I try to shoot at the hip with liveview, but with mixed results. I miss the tilt/swiver screen of my sold G1!) [/QUOTE]
