Non-interference photography

The statement did not discuss any sneak shots involving ethics.

Any shooting should not be based on the premise of disturbing the normal life of others, unless you receive an invitation from the other party. Your artistic shooting (creation) should not be higher than anyone's normal life.

If others are disgusted, please give up filming and consider the privacy and portrait rights of the other party.

At home, everyone is very sensitive and shows high defensive psychology in front of the camera, especially in front of strangers. So please respect this reality first. Secondly, I think it is more effective to find a way to overcome it under the above premise:

Choosing equipment that doesn't look so "offensive", such as large cameras and long lenses, is easy to attract others' attention, trigger defensive psychological reactions, and cause discomfort and disgust of the other party. So a small paraxial small SLR may weaken this situation. In addition, the camera with better color and appearance will arouse the curiosity of the other party, which can weaken the antipathy to a certain extent, leaving you with shorter shooting time (such as colorful Pentax SLR, retro Nikon DF, etc.). ).

Communicate with each other before shooting, not after explaining. Although communication in advance may increase the performance and unnatural elements of the other party in front of the camera, it can reduce a lot of unnecessary disputes and troubles.

Show the other person the photos you took, listen carefully to their suggestions, explain why you took them, tell them your motivation, and give them appropriate praise and encouragement, but if the other person insists on deleting the photos, please do so.

Ask if you need to send photos to the other party, ask the other party to leave an email address or other contact information, and send the original photos to the other party instead of the later photos.
