A book of travels across Japan with vintage lenses from the film era —
the fifth volume of the "Vintage Lens Strolls" series is now on Amazon.
This time, the theme is the lens so many of us dream of: Leica.

Japanese edition — a photo book, enjoyable in any language.

Leica — a name with a special ring to it. If you traveled with these lenses, what would change?

With Leica lenses in hand, I spent a year strolling through Kyoto, Kamakura, the Nasu Highlands, Hakone, and Yokohama Honmoku.

Even the most ordinary scene seems to hold a special moment when seen through a Leica.
So what do these lenses really capture?
144 pages, generously filled with photographs taken on Leica glass.
A book that lets you feel as if you've wandered off on a journey, even in the middle of busy days.

The Vintage Lens Strolls series has now reached its fifth volume.
It has come this far thanks to everyone who has read along the way — thank you so much.
I'll keep walking the good old towns, vintage lens in hand, to bring you more.

Here are some sample pages.
