• Audi TT-RS

    Got the chance to drive a brand-new Audi TT-RS, courtesy of Audi Ikebukuro. This little beast is seriously fast—Audi R8 V10 Plus kind of fast—with a 0-100km/h time under 4 seconds. The growl of the 5-cylinder engine perfectly matches its performance, making the whole experience thrilling. Even the kids had a blast riding in it!…

I’ve always preferred a 35mm equivalent as my go-to walk-around lens, and this one is a perfect replacement for the Sigma ART I used on my 5D…

    Boarding Train

    I’m really happy with the bokeh and colors of the XF 35mm f/2. It’s much lighter than the f/1.4 and focuses significantly faster—perfect for quick shots and everyday use. The weather resistance is an added bonus too. If you’re on the fence, I’d say make the switch—you won’t regret it!
