Vintage Lens Strolls #season1 — Yokohama
What would your everyday streets and familiar views look like through a retro lens from the film era?
This is the very first volume of "Vintage Lens Strolls" — published in English as OLD LENS TRIP #season1 —, an e-book series of walks across Japan with lenses made decades ago.
A book that lets you slip away on a little journey, even in the middle of busy days.
English edition — fully translated, published as "OLD LENS TRIP #season1".
The theme of this volume is Yokohama — a year of strolls through my hometown, one vintage lens at a time.
1. Momijizaka and the Kishamichi promenade in spring, with an Asahi Opt. SMC Takumar 50mm f1.4.
2. Fresh summer greens and small flowers, with Ai Nikkor 85mm f2 × Ai Nikkor 50mm f1.4.
3. Autumn leaves in Seseragi Park, with CANON NFD 24mm f2.8 × CANON NFD 50mm f1.4.
4. Early mornings in winter, with a RICOH XR RIKENON 50mm f2.
5. Cherry blossoms in Yamazaki Park, with a CONTAX Carl Zeiss Planar T* 50mm f1.4.
Five Yokohama neighborhoods and five seasons, walked with vintage lenses and gathered into one easy-to-browse book.
I hope you will enjoy it.
As a small thank-you, here are some sample pages.
