Street candid

The constraint on the street is speed and unpredictability — moments arrive and vanish, so you set up to react, not to fiddle. A 35mm (about 52mm equivalent) sees close to how you do, which makes framing instinctive. Shoot aperture priority at f/5.6 for a depth of field forgiving enough that near-misses in focus still land, and set the Auto ISO minimum shutter to 1/250 so a walking subject never blurs. With AF-C and recognition on, you keep your attention on the scene and let the camera find the eyes.

Watch out for overthinking exposure in changing light. Pools of sun and shade will swing the meter frame to frame, so lean on Auto ISO and a touch of exposure compensation rather than chasing manual settings. And pre-focus on the distance you expect the action — being ready beats being perfectly exposed a second too late.
