This was a pretty relaxed day catching some shots around the Asakusa, Kanda and Akihabara areas of Tokyo, Japan.
Shooting almost predominantly with the Fujifilm X100F, I got a few shots from the day, though I'll admit nothing all too special. However, I still feel this video give great insight into where to go in Tokyo and where to take street photography - which I'm still sharing it!

    *Yo, what's up everyone?!* Leave a comment of your favourite photo and also let me know what you think of the vlogs lately - I've been changing things up a bit and really enjoying the results! P.S I know the opening vlog shots are over exposed. It wasn't intentional and was corrected as best I could, without damaging the footage more. The A7R has no flip out screen 😐 P.P.S. Who else noticed that I completely forgot to turn the Super35 crop off after testing that lens in Yodabashi? It took me a while to realise it. I just thought I got tired and my arm was being lazy 😂

    I was actually looking forward to the nighttime photos, wasnt disappointed. Another favorite was one with by the river; shot where there were people waiting for their train ride. Also, this made me miss Tokyo. I went on exchange there which ended just this March. I along with friends I made during the trip would sneak out waaay past our curfew to explore Tokyo. We legit went to four different places in one night because of the rush we felt; Akihabara to Shihbuya to Ginza to Shinjuku (forgot the order HAHAHA but all of it in the same night).

    I have multiple issues with it. Essentially I find it too slow for my workflow and I simply can't "trust" it to perform, based on the usability of it. It is especially cumbersome when switching between photo and video modes, so I opted to just use it for video and have been happier with it ever since.

    They have different use cases, but as far as raw image quality, the X100F technically has the newer better sensor technology. If you compared it directly to the 23mmF2 on an X-T10, I'd go for the X100F.

    Classic case of not having a flip out screen unfortunately. I don't review back each of the vlog shots when filming and sadly this happens from time to time (out of focus often as well). I've tried to bring down the exposure as much as possible without truly distorting the footage or flattening the whites beyond repair, but it seems it's still pretty bad. I'd love for Sony to make a decent vlogging camera with a flip-out screen, or Canon to acknowledge 4K on their cameras with screens. Or jump ship again and find another system that might meet my needs. But y'know… budget 😔 The shots at least still have informative content to them in my opinion, which is why I kept them in; sorry it's a bit distracting!

    Joe Allam maybe try using a smaller aperture (or bigger f stop). the background blur looks rly nice but it's overexposing you. great content though. good job!

    What ever the "preset filter" you are using?! You are "killing it"! I love the tones in this Vlog! Great job! :)
