Apartment building in Nakameguro just south of my office on Yamate dori; also taken in the weeks before Geisai.
I like Konica Minolta Centuria Super 400 because it gives pretty punchy colors for negative film. Blues, yellows, and reds are well-separated and heavily saturated, giving the images, to my mind, a primary look which reminds me of grade school. Five rolls were included with my scanner. It’s too bad that the company has stopped manufacturing all 35 mm camera products. The only stock left is what’s in the stores now, so it seems that the film will only live on in professionals’ refrigerators after January or so. I have about twenty rolls on hand in my kitchen at the moment.
