Great pictures, but it's not what I intend to do. I want candid shoots, not posing. I do similar things from the open convertible car (no worries I'm not the one who is driving
) with zoom lenses. Walking is different, it's more noticeable, and I'd like to be less noticeable.
Actually little canon with pancake on a wrist is an ideal set up for street photography, people pay less attention than to bigger pentax on the neck strap. It's easy to use, but I want manual lenses to use. Pentax is heavy, with the batteries and manual lenses to carry it like nothing on wrist.

Just set the distance scale on the lens to the approximate distance you'll be shooting from, and stop the lens down to f/8 or f/11. Aperture priority and ISO 400. You'll be fine.
That's a good start!
Thanks.
