The New Street Photographers Manifesto Any Camera Anywhere eBook Tanya Nagar
I enjoyed this book a lot, and found the sections on "Cultural Sensitivities" and "Street Photography & the law", very informative.The author also discusses equipment for street photography and gives alternatives to -for example- the expensive Leicas (which she uses in some of the photos) and also gives the pros and cons of each type of camera (rangefinders, slr & dslr, medium format, camera phones, etc.) I liked this chapter.
Of course, the book also has a complete chapter about "Where & what to shoot" that gives good ideas for locations and subjects to photograph.
The last part of "The New Street Photographer's Manifesto" presents a showcase of several photographers with a little background of each one and questions as "what equipment do you use, "how did you get into street photography" and an explanation on how they achieved one of their best photos.
I would have rated 4 1/2 because -even though the book has two to three photos on each page- I would've like to see more photos for each subject. Anyway, this book has ignited my left aside passion por candid & street photography.

The New Street Photographers Manifesto Any Camera Anywhere eBook Tanya Nagar Reviews
The book was accessable, informative and inspiring! I would recommend this book to anyone who likes to shoot from the hip!
Lots of great street shooting suggestions and ideas! A must have book for anyone interested in street photography.
nice smallish book on street photography. Covers mostly basic stuff, but relates it to how you can use it in street photography. basically one persons spin on what and how he does it. you may pick up something useful.
A lot of good insight and information. Looking forward to implementing some of the ideas.
I had every intention on reading this from cover to cover so I got about half way through and just had to start skipping around. I think this book would be really good for someone that is fairly new to photography and has come to the hobby through an interest in street photography. The written material is just ok, high level overview and very general. It skims the top of a number of different photographic topics and thats what seems to be intended. I found the brief section on street photography and the law interesting. If you have gotten your feet wet with your own street photography or have read a few other books on the subject you might not find this helpful moving forward. So again the written material I found to be just ok and the photos I also found to be just ok.
Great little book for the beginning street photographer! Helpful tips and hints that I think anyone could appreciate. If you're looking for something technical, this isn't for you, but I think if you're looking for something that can help you gain some confidence while street shooting, this could be helpful.
I'm rewriting an earlier review of this book after a second (quick) read. At first I quite liked the book - still do, actually, but there are some major caveats for actual street photography education and elucidation.
For starters, most of the photography in this book isn't quite what most of us mean by street photography. Much of it is candid and composed using the principles of street photography, but the locations and cultures displayed herein aren't native to the photographer (or most of us), and thus should maybe be categorized as travel photography rather than street photography. Now, that may seem like an insignificant quibble to bring up, but it's actually a less well-known trait of street photography that most of the photographers are shooting within their own cultures and environs. As such, street photography challenges us to see our own world in a different way, and to document it as an insider, rather than as an outsider. This isn't to say that you can't make authentic street photography in a culture and country other than your own, but when you are traveling to a far-flung location, doesn't that make it travel photography? Also, I worry that beginning street photographers will become disheartened (or at least feel like they need to seek out the exotic and different) when they take in the colorful and (to me) exotic locales in most of the photos. Street photography is a challenge to illuminate the human condition wherever you are, and for most of us that doesn't include frequent trips to foreign countries.
My second reservation is with the camera information, which is already pretty outdated due to the quick progress of modern cameras. I believe most street photographers today would be using mirrorless cameras (at leas the trend continues in that direction due to things like smaller size, fast EVFs for composition, less attention given to the camera, etc.) and fewer people using film. Much of the information herein is relative to either film, or to old camera models. It could use an update to bring it closer to 2018.
This is a neat book, with great photos. However I feel it may not lead beginners in the right direction. A better book might be the Street Photographer's Manual by David Gibson, which goes into a good amount of detail about technique and philosophy from an accessible point of view. There aren't a lot of what I would consider good street photography books around at present; much of the content and education in this genre takes place in collectives and other resources online, which I suppose is a pretty fitting medium for such a democratic art.
