Hi there!
For ambivert-style street photography, I like to keep gear simple, small, and unobtrusive so you can focus on people and moments, not on your camera. I typically recommend:
- A small mirrorless or compact camera with a silent (or very quiet) shutter
- A prime lens in the 28–50mm range for a natural perspective
- A comfortable strap or sling so the camera can stay at your side, not in your face
- Extra battery and memory card, but nothing that makes your bag bulky
If you share what camera you use now, I can suggest a specific lens and setup that fits an ambivert approach.
