Don’t feel that you have to be pigeonholed into only shooting street photography one way. Martin Parr has experimented much during his photography career- shooting with 35mm black and white film on a Leica, medium-format color film, 35mm color film with a Macro lens, and now shoots with a DSLR camera.
He has also shot “street photography” by using a videocamera for the BBC in a program titled: “Think of England“. He essentially captured moments from British life (and inteviewed people) into clips – to give the viewer a better sense of a scene by hearing the sounds, more of the situation, and having more interaction.
