#16 The famous "Hui Lau Shan" Dessert specialty shop, there always a long queue, but frankly speaking its well worth the wait..

#17 Residences living just a few floors above the busy streets of Mongkok, sometime i wonder how can they sleep peacefully as Mongkok is always so "happending" and noisy day and night :think:

Wow nice shots you have! :thumbsup: :heart: it!

Any flash use for this type of street shots or just pump up the ISO?

I am going to hongkong next week, as a newbie like me...:cry:not sure how to handle this type of street/landscape shooting....will be using a nikon 18-55mm (kit lens) a 55mm-200mm & a 50mm prime f/1.8 prime lens...should I use only P mode? or A,S,M mode....
 

awesome pics as usual, mate :)

Sry for the late reply...
No flash used for all my shots in above..

Err.. very hard to advise.. much depends on the effect you want, so there's no fast hard rules on what mode to use.. I go by M all along mostly as its a habit and i prefer my exposure to be consistent throughout.. Will use S if i need to freeze action or introduce motion sparingly.. A mode is mostly used in Landscape and portrait (only somtimes) as its in this 2 where u can control the dof... P is essential sometimes if you think u wan to capture a moment (that u think will vanish in a flash) and u wun have the luxury of time to set ur settings for A,S or M..

HTH bro :)
