Interesting show, horrible video. I can only imagine the awful video people will flood us with when they get say the Irix 11 mm on their FX cams.

They won't bother to use DSLRs for this kind of vlogs: a GoPro or DJI Osmo would be good enough.  :)

Thank you for that Akira.

Glad you enjoy this one.  :)  Whenever the schedule allows, I would be glad to accompany you then.

A visit to Tokyo and Sendai are on the very top of the NikonGear workshop short list  :D


When we plan this it would be clever to do it so it would fit the above or similar!

To visit Sendai would require special permission/invitation from Nikon, which could be possible for the professional photographers like you.

There are a couple of occasions in a year for such second hand camera show.
