appeared in this little book have
popped up on a variety of websites.
Boy shouting: Kosgholgonduk Pass, Hovsgol Province, Mongolia, 2007
The pictures were shot over the past
three years and are the result of
hundreds of hours of Peter trawling
London’s streets seeking out
individuals who represent the diversity of such a
huge city. Within the pages we find buskers, refuse
collectors, lawyers and everything in between. Each of
the images is accompanied by a caption offering some
of the most intimate thoughts of the subjects. This
results in a deeply personal approach to a city that
many can find overwhelming. In such troubled times
as these, it’s heartening to come face to face with
people we may otherwise not encounter on our
day-to-day trudge through the streets. Zelewski’s
portraits are simple, and they need not be anything
else. The straightforwardness of them is perfect and
when they are placed side by side with their captions

you don’t need to stress whether the
colour version would be any better.
This is the same with black & white
film – you can’t convert a black &
white film photo into colour, nor
can you convert a black & white
JPEG image into colour. Ironically,
by restricting our options, we can be
more creative with our work.

A couple of caveats
First, I don’t shoot entirely in JPEG.
I shoot in raw and JPEG because
much of the black & white
conversions I do with my free
Lightroom presets look better than
the in-camera ‘high-contrast black
& white preset’ in the Ricoh GR II.
However, I’m beginning to prefer
the colour JPEG images from the
Ricoh over post-processing it
myself. For a friend’s wedding
recently, I shot both raw and JPEG,
and I ended up only using the JPEG
files (the colour, contrast and skin
tones looked way better).
One of my good friends, Josh
White, does more or less all his
black & white shooting in JPEG on
his digital Ricohs, and does some
minor post-processing afterwards.
There are also many instances
where shooting raw is preferable.
For example, if you’re a commercial
photographer and you need all the
information in the files; if you are a
fickle photographer (one who
prefers having both colour and
black & white, just in case); if you
already have film-simulation
presets in Lightroom that work well
with your raw files; or if you already
have your ‘workflow’ mastered.
The point I’m trying to make is
that if you prefer shooting JPEG
and don’t care for raw, that is
totally fine. If you’re a dedicated
raw shooter, experiment a bit
with your JPEG images. You might

Nikon M Rangefinder Camera - A Very Early Example

In 1948 Nikon’s very first camera, the Nikon Model One, was destined for only a brief production run. Its 24 x 32mm format
proved unpopular with the GHQ of the Occupation Forces under General MacArthur, who would not allow the camera to be
exported to the USA because the 24 x 32mm format was not compatible with Kodachrome slide mounts. It was replaced by the
Nikon M (the M standing for mutatio – Latin for change or alteration). The M used a 24 x 34mm format, but it was still smaller than
the 36 x 24mm employed by Leica. In addition Nikon added the letter ‘M’ before the serial number which is the only time they
ever identified one of their rangefinder cameras. According to factory records, the first Nikon M was camera M609760 assembled in
August 1949. The camera is marked “Made in Occupied Japan” on the base, a sign of
the times following the 1945 Armistice and the US occupation of Japan which lasted
from the summer of 1945 through Spring 1952. The number of this very rare example TO ORDER TELEPHONE
is M609769, which is possibly the 10th production camera! It is complete with a 5cm 020-7828 4925

some cachet. Speaking directly to
the editor-in-chief, and going above
the head of the picture editors
who usually commissioned him,
Rapoport bypassed the idea of
covering the story from a fresh news
angle, instead pitching the essay as
‘a town without children’. The editor
jumped at it.

An immediate impact
Rapoport arrived in the village
around eight days after the
disaster, and what he saw made
an immediate impact on him.
‘They had cleaned up the streets
but they were still covered with half
an inch of slurry – the worst kind of
dirt you can imagine,’ he recalls.
‘Based on the photos of W Eugene
Smith and others, I had always
imagined Wales to be a cold, wet,
dirty place. When I arrived in
Aberfan, my idea of Wales was
reinforced. That’s exactly what it
looked like.’
Rapoport brought with him 60
rolls of black & white film and 20
rolls of colour, but over the next few
weeks he shot more than 120 rolls.
He carried with him three Leica M2
cameras, two of which he had
bought on getting the commission
to cover the story, and 28mm,
50mm and 90mm lenses. He also
had two Nikon F SLRs with 180mm
and 400mm lenses.
For the people of a town who were
still in shock, it wasn’t easy to
accept yet another journalist
arriving in their midst.

exposed for the highlights, meaning the shopkeeper is framed by the lights of her store. The rest of the

The Instax Share SP-2

gives you a physical print

WE LIVE in a world where we get instant gratification from our images.

It takes only a few seconds to upload our images to social media, then
we’re quickly receiving ‘likes’ and comments. But there’s nothing like the
feelings and memories that a physical image conjures up when we hold
it or see it in an album. The Fujifilm Instax Share SP-2 combines instant
digital gratification with an immediate physical print.
The Instax Share SP-2 is a palm-sized printer of sorts, which projects
images digitally on to Fuji Instax film. This is then loaded in to the printer.
In a way, it’s like having a tiny Fujifilm Frontier minilab in your hand.
Digital images are sent to the Instax Share SP-2 from a smartphone
or tablet, via the Instax Share app. So take your picture, connect your
phone’s Wi-Fi to the printer, open the app, hit print and out pops
your Instax print. All you then have to do is shake it like a Polaroid
picture – although current advice is to let it sit for a couple of minutes
until the image appears.
Seasonal patterns and borders, or different image layouts, can be
applied via the app. There’s even a template that automatically uses the
Mofifififififiafififificfiufififi
phone’s connectivity to add the date, time, location and weather to an
image. It is quick and easy to use, and battery operated, so it’s truly
wireless. It’s even charged via a USB for when you are on the move.
Mofififififichfifiqufi
The Instax Share SP-2 costs around £155, with an Instax 10 image
pack costing around £8. OK, it may not be for serious photographers, Mofififiofifififiofi
and it isn’t cheap to buy or run, but take this along to a social occasion
and you’re bound to have a lot of fun. Best of all, everyone will walk
away with a physical print to remember the event by.

Nikon Picture Controls Active D-Lighting

Nikon gives punchy

colours but tends to
over-neutralise WB
AS YOU would expect, by default Nikon
cameras give good-quality JPEGs that have
strong, saturated colours. The firm’s high ISO
noise reduction is usually particularly effective,
removing most chroma noise but leaving a little
luminance grain behind.
The main issue Nikon users need to be
aware of when shooting JPEGs is a distinct
tendency for the auto white balance system to
over-neutralise, giving dull-looking images in
daylight. This persists even when the Keep
Warm Colours option that’s available on some
cameras is enabled, as this only applies to
low colour temperature artificial lighting. A
workaround is to apply a degree of fine-tuning
towards amber in the AWB settings.

Picture Controls
Much like Canon, Nikon includes an array of
colour modes, which it calls Picture Controls.
Alongside a generally bright and punchy
Standard setting they include subject-
optimised Landscape and Portrait modes, as
well as a Vivid mode and a Neutral option
that’s designed to give colourimetrically
accurate images. Recent models also include
a Flat option that’s specifically intended for Nikon’s JPEG output has strong colours, but errs towards the cool side; this was shot using the D500
further post-processing, using a low-contrast
tone curve that retains as much shadow and Out-of-camera JPEG Processed raw
highlight detail as possible.
All the Picture Controls can be individually
fine-tuned, with a handy Quick Adjust that
bumps up or tones down sharpening, contrast
and saturation together. Recent models also
include a useful Clarity function that can help
boost local contrast in dull or hazy conditions.
If you come across a tweaked Picture
Control variant that you particularly like, it can
be saved to the camera’s memory, and most
usefully it can be given a descriptive name.
Your customised Picture Controls can even be
copied to a memory card and transferred to
other Nikon cameras.

Active D-Lighting
Nikon was one of the first companies to add
a dynamic-range-enhancement tool to its
cameras. Its Active D-Lighting (ADL) behaves
very similarly to Sony’s Dynamic Range
Optimisation, acting by exposing to protect the
highlights, then selectively lightening midtone
and highlight areas. This allows greater
dynamic range to be included in the JPEG The overly cool tones of the JPEG are evident here when compared to the processed raw file

PENTAX cameras have many strengths, but
unfortunately, the standard JPEG output isn’t

Having said that, if you pay attention to how
the camera is set up and what it is doing, it’s
perfectly possible to get some decent output.
The good news is that Pentax DSLRs include a

extends to the JPEG processing. On recent A little editing has made a world of difference here to a slightly dull JPEG from the Pentax K-S2

Final Analysis
Roger Hicks considers…

tend to fall into
two categories.
Some are taken by self-avowed
fine-art photographers, while
others are taken by, well, just
photographers. This is one of
the latter. Stephen Williams is
a photographer in South Africa,
known for photojournalism,
PR, weddings and event
photography (visit www.
stephenwilliams.co.za).
A question this picture raises
for me is how you categorise
the pictures you take for
yourself. Some are just happy
snaps, obviously. Others are
more serious, and fine art is as
good a description as any.
Some will say there’s no need to
categorise them, but this pretty
much negates the concept of
language. We might as well
point at the pictures and grunt.
Nor are the categories
mutually exclusive. Looked at
this way, this is both reportage
and fine art. It is a railway
underpass, somewhat notorious
for robberies, just after heavy
rains. Apparently, the three
people on the stairs were
nervous when they first saw
Williams, but in his own words,
‘relaxed when they realised all the more like us: the words

Roger Hicks has been writing about photography since 1981 and has published more than three dozen books on the subject, many in partnership with his wife Frances Schultz (visit his new website
at www.rogerandfrances.eu). Every week in this column Roger deconstructs a classic or contemporary photograph. Next week he considers an image by Thibaut Derien.
