Hide and seek

2021, December 29

By using the viewfinder you have a perfect hiding place behind your camera.
It almost feels like little kids playing hide and seek and by closing their eyes they think the other person won’t see them.

I only recently realised this again when using my new Fuji X100V, I though the biggest advantage to get unnoticed is to shoot from the hip with the tilted touch screen. However by just putting the camera in front of your face makes you unnoticed too. And the bigger advantage you can just look at the person without them really realising you look at them.
