Having heard great things about the wonderful GRD iii, I recently took advantage of it's bargain price so I could have a go at street photography with a fixed, snappy focus lens. I love my X100, but by the time it wakes up my wonderful shots have usually walked out of my view, got on the bus and are actually sitting down to supper in their homes, with me left standing on the street with only a memory of a photograph that could have been.
My first thoughts on receiving the GRD iii was how wide? and how close would I have to be to fill the frame with my subject? Being a shy, wee lass, not comfortable getting myself in people's faces, I guessed the GRD iii would be a challenge. So on Saturday I nipped into Edinburgh to see how I would cope on familiar ground. These are some of my snaps.
