Japan for the Traveling Photographer, Part 3: Tokyo and Tsukiji » Tokyo is modern Japan’s capital, its largest city and a dynamic and fascinating destination.  Travelers in search of “traditional” Japan sometimes bypass Tokyo in favor of Kyoto; indeed, we never spent any time there until our 3rd trip.  It’s true that much of Tokyo was destroyed in the 20th century, walloped by consecutive disasters of […] Photofocus.com

One Lens Challenge in Japan » Japan, the land of the rising sun and home to Fujifilm.  Aside from Scotland, which I am very happy to call home, Japan ranks as my favourite country on the planet. Since 2012 I’ve been lucky enough to travel there each year on business and I always take some extra time to see something of the countryside and cities while I am there. This year I was able to take a few days ahead of round 7 of the FIA World Endurance Championship, which takes place at Fuji International Speedway in the shadow of the iconic Mount Fuji, or Fujisan as the 3776 metre mountain is reverently known by the Japanese. For this trip I decided to set myself a one lens challenge with the Fujinon XF16mm f1.4R WR, which was fitted to one of my X-T2s.     I have to admit I have a soft spot for the XF16mm f1.4 lens.
