Viron Shibuya
Breakfast at Viron in Shibuya: expensive but you can bring the leftover bread back home. Note the light effect from the GX-85.
Street photography in Japan mostly.

Meeting a friend and his X-Pro2 for coffee in Shibuya. Again, with my little Lumix :)
Phone, book or newspapers: not much difference, is there – at least when you’re on your own. Being with someone else in a cafe or a restaurant is a different story…
Tokyo is full of little relaxing Bars, ideal for a night cap.
Ore-no French & Italian in Aoyama : excellent French food (and pizzas) near Omotesando. As often in restaurants in Japan, the kitchen is open and you can see what’s happening. Entertaining and a guarantee that your food isn’t coming from a micro-wave as it is sadly too often the case in Paris.
Starbucks is very popular among Japanese salary men and college kids: free internet and (and above all) fresh air in summer.
Taking the GX85 for a night out. AF tracking of faces works really nicely, even in low light. JPEG are straight from the camera and noise remains ok up to ISO 3000. After that, the denoise produces overly soft pictures. Overall, not too bad for a micro 4/3.
Girls having fun in the middle of Shibuya Crossing.
Tokyo is always so hot in the summer… I don’t know anyone who likes it.
Free wireless, free aircon, good coffee: most coffee shops are very crowded with students, tourists and salary men (the quality of the coffee seems to matter little for the last kind of customer mentioned above).
