tokyo-camera-style: Ginza Nobuyoshi Araki “Ai no Jikan” opening reception, Leica Gallery Ginza Leica M7 with 50mm f2.8 M-mount Elmar  Photographer: Nobuyoshi Araki Araki is an absolute whirlwind of energy- I wasn’t about to ask him for a shot of his M7 while he was being filmed by NHK and giving a gallery talk to a rep from Leica.  He did mention/proclaim that this particular camera was a gift from Leica, complete with his name engraved on the top plate. The picture here is obviously a crop from a larger file and interestingly enough it was (accidentally) lit by one of the dozen other flashes going off from people with cameras next to me while he was speaking to the German guest about why he won’t shoot digital.

tokyo-camera-style: Shinjuku This is the GRDII which is responsible for the pictures here. It is a fine tool, but it just doesn’t really register as a camera to me.  I really like it and as far as digital goes it does all that I might need. But when it dies in the next year or two I’ll toss it and find another one used somewhere.   It is good for pictures the way film is good for photographs.
