shutter speed too low and your subjects are flat.
no composition?

I guess you didn't see my message up there before I uploaded photos. I didn't look into my viewfinder when I snapped these and I was using Aperture Priority mode which the camera decides for me the shutter speed. I was already using f/2.8, the biggest aperture that my lens can go to.

You're also in Auto ISO right? Aperture Priority and Auto ISO... the camera will choose prioritize a shutter speed that matches your focal length... and then choose the lowest ISO to match. I just checked some of your photos... most were at 50mm.... shutter speed 1/60 and low ISO.

For those shoot from the waist situation, maybe you can try to meter the light condition first... set ISO secukup rasa to make sure u get a fast enough shutter.

Sorry, just read it on prev page.

Use manual mode.
f2.8 is big enough for that situation. With that f, you can increase you shutter speed. 250, 500.
Your sensor is big enough to capture the light.
Shutter speed is the main important aspect in street photography.

Composition. pre visualize before taking pictures. I know you shoot not looking at your VF. But please visualize in your mind how the sensor captures your subject.

Cut a paper and make a photo frame with the size of your camera sensor(. Bring it out often. See the world through it. It helps you.

Talk talk talk for what? Faster post picture la.

Anyway, who says shutter speed is the most important? There's no hard n fast rule. It's all up to how u want it to look like. We don't always wanna freeze people into statues, showing motion is good sometimes..

Yes, will take note on the ISO next time and set it to secukup rasa.
