No,or few words: "The Maitani School"

Here's a couple of pictures taken at arm's length thru the passenger window of my car. A volatile situation. The subjects neither saw-nor heard-the camera, and my OM-2 was light enough and there was no mirror shake at that extension. You could call this "Maitani Photography".

Those are terrific, John, definitely a cut above the usual ho-hum tripe that passes for street photography.

For example, my own shot of a street musician. I've done better.

A quiet, unobtrusive camera is good for wildlife photography, also. OM1, Zuiko 50/1.8, PX/diafine.

And it works well as a casual portrait camera as well:
