Shooting at night with a large aperture and IBIS—thank you, Fuji! The combination makes capturing sharp, low-light shots so much easier, letting me fully take advantage of that dreamy depth of field. Night photography feels effortless with this setup.

Cemetery Hanami

It’s great to be in Tokyo this year (and not away on a business trip) for some fresh Hanami opportunities. This time, I joined the “boys” at a famous cemetery in Tokyo—an unexpectedly lovely spot for cherry blossom viewing. The peaceful atmosphere and the sakura in full bloom made it a unique and memorable experience….

Edogawa Hanami

Edogawa Hanami

After more than 10 years in Iidabashi, I finally made it to Edogawabashi—just a 20-minute walk or one quick subway stop away. Can’t believe it took me this long! The area has its own charm, with quieter streets and little surprises waiting to be discovered. A great reminder that there’s always something new to explore,…

Night Temple

Captured a night temple shot wide open at f/0.95, and this lens continues to amaze me! The shallow depth of field and creamy bokeh create such a dreamy, atmospheric vibe. It’s perfect for low light and really brings out the magic of nighttime scenes. Absolutely loving this lens!

South Exit

Still testing the 10-24mm on the X-H1, and while I still can’t push beyond 1/4s, it does feel like the hit rate at this limit is noticeably higher thanks to the IBIS. The added stabilization seems to make a difference in consistency, even if the ultimate threshold hasn’t changed much. Overall, it’s a solid improvement…

First Sakuras

First Sakuras

The first sakuras are blooming in Tokyo, and this year, no business trips will whisk me away during Hanami season—so happy! Finally, I’ll get to fully enjoy the fleeting beauty of cherry blossoms, soaking in the serene views and vibrant atmosphere without any interruptions. A perfect start to spring! 🌸😊✨

Subway Speed

Testing the X-H1 with the 10-24mm to see if IBIS makes a difference, but it turns out I still can’t push beyond 1/4s—about the same as I could manage with the X-T2. Not that I’m complaining, as 1/4s is already pretty solid for handheld shots. Just wanted to see if the IBIS would let me…

Platform Light

The light on this JR platform in Tokyo is just perfect! The interplay of shadows and highlights creates such a cinematic feel, turning an ordinary moment into something special. Tokyo’s train stations always seem to have that unique atmosphere that’s a joy to capture.

Sushi Night

Sushi Night

With the ZhongYi Optics 35mm f/0.95 at the front and the Fuji X-H1 at the back, I captured an old sushi restaurant in Tokyo glowing softly at night. The fast lens perfectly highlighted the cozy, nostalgic vibe of the place, with its wooden signs and warm lighting creating a scene full of character. The APS-C…
