# Story
Recently I have participated in a photowalk with Thorsten Overgaard and at the end of the walk we accidentally got into a film scene being setup.
Some people were preparing camera gear while others were moving cars around or were cleaning up the street in other ways. Apparently this scene was set in the 50's.
It was pretty hectic there so I thought I would capture that feeling with a slower shutter speed while using my Viltrox adapter to get more out of my vintage full frame lens.
# Technical Details
With the Viltrox EF-FX2 Pro (Canon EF To Fujifilm X) and an M42 To Canon EF adapter I got closer to using the lens' original focal length and character (the adapter's lenses mitigate my Fuji's 1.5x APS-C crop factor).
I don't own a \~29mm equivalent prime lens yet for my X-T3 so this Viltrox adapter is very useful and without it these pictures wouldn't have been possible. I used this combination for the whole walk as it's nice to use some older lenses every once in a while.
For most of these shots I had manually set my shutter speed to 1/15s and lens to F22 while ISO was on AUTO.
I usually keep my camera in aperture priority mode but I'm very glad I finally started messing around more with different shutter speeds.
Some images were cropped to 21:9 aspect ratio later on, they kind of like frames taken from a movie.
