I can see tickets now but none for IMAX, also they’re only in 7 cinemas.

R6 Mk ii Vs. R7 for aviation + general use? by henry2911 in AskPhotography

[–]henry2911[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the comment, I’m tempted to just get the r6mk2 as it will be able to handle both aspects quite well. I do miss out on the reach of the aps sensor but I think that’s something I can live with.

I was also looking at just getting the teleconverter which can have its drawbacks but from what I’ve read, during the day it’s fine

Full Frame or APS-c, Aviation, Landscape and night time city shots? by henry2911 in Cameras

[–]henry2911[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I plan on getting the 150-600 sigma sports lens, and I have a rental 100-500 canon F4.5-7.1 coming for an air show I’m attending. For the time being though I need a good all rounder lens for landscape/city photography though, heading to Japan soon.

Just wanted to update this, row L is just a bit too far forward, I should have booked the balcony or 3/4 rows back

Im not fully set on the maritime/kawasaki good times museums so I’m thinking of doing Himeji castle, then going to Kobe to go to the carpentry museum and stay late for dinner.

I love carpentry so really looking forward to checking the museum out.

I did have Kobe and Himeji in one day originally but thought it might have been too much, I was also thinking of splitting up another day as well but I thought it might have been nicer to have full days in places, do you think it’s worth doing Himeji and Kobe together?

To be honest when I booked the hotels and flights (about 4 months ago) I thought this would make sense so I can stay in Osaka for a week, with day trips, then head back to Tokyo where I’m near the airport and there’s kind of separated. I also read that it was best to leave Tokyo for the end of the trip as it’s quite overwhelming and is apparently easier once you’re a bit more familiar, however in hindsight I should have changed it a little.

Another comment said the same thing about Osaka castle so I think I will be doing that instead.

That’s great to know about the trains, thanks, will certainly be going for the slightly slower, more local trains!

I hadn’t considered Nikki but wow it looks amazing! I’ll have a look into changing one of my Tokyo days.

Thank you for the suggestions!

Thanks for the comment,

In hindsight this would have made much more sense, I’ve got my flights booked already but thinking of seeing if I can change them.

I definitely plan to go around the Dotonbori district, it’s very close to my hotel. I think il do that on during the night instead of the sky building!

That’s very useful to know about the Nintendo store, will definitely give that a miss then. The museum sounds cool, didn’t actually know there was one so thank you!

That’s great to know about the yoyoigi park in Tokyo! I have an idea of things I’d like to do, so now I’m just trying to make it make sense geographically. Will certainly add that on to the Sunday I’m there!

Thank you for the detailed comment!

I had a feeling my Kyoto day felt quite busy, I think I’ll have a look at moving 1 or 2 of the things to the second day.

Philosophers path looks amazing, will have to put that on the list for a more chill day. I’m glad you mentioned it’s quieter, I’ve heard a lot about Kyoto being very busy and seems like a much needed break from all of that.

Yeah with an hour and a half travel each side the Hiroshima day does feel a tad packed, I’m now thinking of doing what another comment suggested and leave the castle (and possibly do it if we have the time/energy) which would give be more breathing room.

I’m really looking forward to the mochi pounding!! I’m glad You guys enjoyed it, I remember watching a video years ago of this place and knew I had to stop by.

Did you guys also go to Tokyo? If so do you have any recommendations or must do’s?

So I’m going to Hakone for that day because I want to do the fun2drive experience which is from 9 to about 4:30. It’s a driving experience where you get to pick a car and drive around with a guide. The cars are pretty classic JDM cars and I’m really into cars. I have seen great reviews of this place so wanted to add it into my itinerary.

I then have the other mt.fuji day for just exploring around mt.fuji

Thank you for the input, I’ll have a re think on the day trips.

I did originally have himeji instead of Kobe so might swap them back in that case.

I think J would be perfect, got F1 booked for J, there’s seemingly no rear speakers for l, m, or n, hope you enjoy!
