6th Street Night Life – Austin, Texas

I’m continuing to showcase photos taken with the mystery Canon lens attached to my Fujifilm GFX. This new lens has changed that game for versatility with the GFX 50R, which I previously used either on a tripod or handheld in good light.

I’ve already showed off today’s and yesterday’s photos on my free newsletter. I’ll reveal the mystery lens first in an upcoming issue.

I was particularly impressed with the complex color captured in the chandeliers. I get all the goodness of a larger medium format sensor, but with increased usability. This is certainly not a traditional setting for medium format photography. That’s what makes this new combo so promising.

Back in the middle of May, when I made this, post-pandemic activity was just starting. It felt good to be downtown and see folks enjoying the nightlife. In fact, it was busier than usual for a Sunday night, which is usually dead. No doubt, people are getting restless for fun.
