Hattori Clock Tower

I photographed Ginza with EL Nikkor 75mm F4N. I attached a mount adapter (M42 to Nikon Z) to the Nikon Z 6 and put in a BORG M42 helicoid.

First of all, I photographed a landmark that represents Ginza. Once you have spotted the iconic Wako department store, then you know you are in the heart of Ginza that a popular neighborhood known for its upscale shopping in Tokyo and worldwide.

Sanai Building

The Sanai building was part of a city-wide modernization project built for the 1964 Olympics in Tokyo. The Sanai building sits on the corner of Ginza Crossing, a highly trafficked area at the intersection of Harumi and Chuo streets, and its cylindrical tower is one of the most traditional advertising spaces in Tokyo.

Kabukiza Theatre

The Kabukiza Theater in Tokyo was first built in 1889, heralding the new-found respectability of the dramatic art of kabuki. The present Kabuki Theater is the fourth kabuki theater to be built on its site in a little over 120 years. The Kabuki Theater is distinguished by its Japanese castle and shrine style architecture, as well as by the ultramodern skyscraper that emerges from out of it, together officially known as Ginza Kabukiza.

The lens is light, weighing only 68.5 grams. Despite the lightness and small size of the lens, the pictures that come out have a sense of scale. It is a neutral and transparent image without any unnecessary coloration. Sound, temperature, air pressure, and even wind speed are captured in the image.

Ginza Camera Style

I enjoyed shooting Ginza with this camera and lens. The city of Ginza taken with Nikon Z and EL Nikkor 75mm F4N is beautiful.

SEIKO

The clock tower taken with a Nikon Z camera and EL Nikkor 75mm F4N lens is gorgeous. The color reproduction is like that of Kodachrome 64, a reversal film in 1980's. Fresh and unclouded. A rich and healthy picture.

I took a picture of Ginza with EL Nikkor. It was a really fun time to shoot. The EL Nikkor 75mm F4N lens will brighten your life beautifully. The image looks shining even if it is not a high-speed lens. If you want to live life lightly, this one is all you need.
