One of the advantages of traveling with a friend who has a camera with the same lens mount as you is that you can share lenses. During my visit to Thailand last Xmas I had the opportunity to try the Nikon Fisheye 10.5mm lens of Ignacio. My experimentation produced some pretty nice photos:
Thailand beaches have [...]
A little bit late but… Happy New Year to everyone! Time flies! It seems like yesterday when I started to compile pictures I took last year in my Flickr account. Throughout the year I’ve been putting together in this Flickr set what I thought were the best photos I was taking. All the pictures were [...]
It’s been already a year since I bought my Nikon D90. Before owning a D90 I had a D40 that helped me introduce myself into the photography world; the problem is that after one year I had already gotten the best out of it and I felt the need to use a better camera, mainly [...]
My random pics folder was starting to fill up with too many photos and I have decided to put them all together in a post. It’s a pretty senseless mix that contains some pictures I took 5 years ago and some that I took days ago.

A few months ago I got to meet photographer Chris Willson and now I consider him a friend. You can follow him on Travel67.com, on his blog and on his flickr.

I don’t know why but after walking by Tokyo Midtown many times I never realized that there is a photography gallery+museum by Fujifilm in the first floor! It is called Fujifilm Square and they have temporal photography galleries and a permanent museum room with all the cameras that Fujifilm has manufactured up until now, they [...]
I’ve been trying the new Nikon D5000. A camera that I would classify in the middle of the Nikon D60 and the Nikon D90 but with a little bit of “new style” because of the vari-angle color LCD monitor. It is awesome to be able to freely move the LCD monitor in a D-SLR camera! [...]
Last week I tried the new Nikon D90 that will be available in Japan from the 19th. After my experience, more than positive with my Nikon D40, my next camera will be a Nikon D90. I think it is the natural evolution from a D40 user who needs to go to the next level. I [...]
Nobuyoshi Araki and Daido Moriyama are two of the most famous contemporary Japanese photographers. Nobuyoshi Araki is the bad boy, he likes colors and controversy, on the other hand Daido Moriyama shots almost always en b&w and his pictures are sad and melancholic. Daido Moriyama was friend with Yukio Mishima, and he confesses that his [...]
I found this interesting pie chart showing reflex cameras market share in Japan during 2007:
Nikon and Canon are more or less the same, and together they have more than 80% of the market. I did not found data for Europe or the USA, but I guess Canon and Sony have much more market share outside [...]
