Hello community. I love the look of street photography and want to give it a go. What beginner tips or guides would you recommend? I have a rangefinder with a 50mm lens (film) to play around with if that helps.

Sometimes you can find a deal on expired film. That allows you to shoot more. The more you shoot, the better idea you’ll have of the qualities of your camera and film.

Thanks. Any preferences on film or ISO? I plan to give 200s, 400s a go from Kodak Ilford and Fujifilm.

Depends on the look you’re going for (high/low grain, motion blur) and whether it’s bright day, overcast, or night.
