It's essentially the same thing - at least,the way I used it when
shooting film. shooting from the hip, figuratively or literally,
My street shooting settings on the LX and the 28 were 1/250, f8 and
about 10 feet for shooting with Tri-x.
The great thing about digital is if you get it wrong you can see it
on the LCD and change it. Most of my street shooting is different
in that I'm less interested in the people as people than you are...
One of the shots here says I'm lying, but the other is what I mean..
However, when it is a cat... :-)

I set my lens on 2m and position myself at said distance to take a shot
for wide-ish lenses. If I'm doing a longer lens like a 50, I might be 3

Hyperfocal is setting the lens so everything from a certain distance to
infinity is sort of in focus. Don't really trust those DoF settings.
Get out there with the 28. It's much easier; I'm eager to see what you do

Derby, re "Zone focusing" - is that the same thing as what I know as
"Hyper-focal distance?" setting it for shooting from the hip?
