Artist Daido Moriyama - In Pictures | Tate 

Thanks for the recommendation!🙏

Thank you!

Brainwashing is a serious thing.

I'd love to but you cant buy it in English for less than a couple of hundred pounds!

@@RedNetVideo That's crazy! Guess I was lucky to get a copy at retail. The cheapest as of Sept 2020 is $55 USD on Abebooks.

I love how he received a Hasslebad award! (pun intended, in this case :D)

@@dzevadbayraktar322 Ricoh Japan published his work on their website featuring his new photographs taken by Ricoh GRIII, pretty impressive! Series are called "Daido Moriyama Photographs Ginza with the GR III" Highly recommended.

Thank you for the info.

@edo This puts so many things into perspective. Often times, we're so focus on gear/lenses/etc, but Moriyama focuses more on capturing snapshots of on-the-moment experiences. Due to this mindset, I have to point out the following: I can't believe he produces such astounding images with a little Nikon S9100.

Do you know by any chance when did he switch to digital?

@@azaeldrm Cameras do not matter that much. Since the invention of the camera, there were good pictures, no matter if they were made on a Leica or a Kodak Brownie. Good cameras are only the ones that suit your needs without any useless gimmicks you'd pay for and confuse you. He shoots on the S9XXX series Nikon. For somewhat reasons he can be seen with different models like s9100 or s9300. Anyway, they don't differ that much. Probably they brake or he might have more and just grabs one and that is. I don't know when he started shooting digital exactly. There is a documentary with him that you can find on youtube named Near Equal that I suggest you watch. At the end of the documentary, it is showing his first encounter with a digital camera. I hope this will help you!

​@@azaeldrm It doesn't mean you or we should do the same. It just happens to be how he does it, and what camera he is using. People should be careful about the interpretation around what other photographers are doing, or what camera they are using. You're not Moriyama, fortunately, since we already have one. This is very interesting in how to understand Moriyama work, but that stops here.

congratulations on your fetish.

Its just like the famous saying. Whats the best camera in the world? - The one in your hands

They are interchangable

The slave metaphor is misguided. Does the musician make his instrument his slave? Does the rider make the horse his slave? What we should aim for is resonance between the instrument of the eye, the strings of the camera and the object of the motive. A change or correction of the one, leads to a corresponding adjustment of the other.

Fascinating and insightful. Absolutely wonderful man and video.

Mi sarebbe piaciuto poter seguire in giapponese almeno il primo minuto di parlato, ma i sottotitoli giapponesi sono quelli di tipo automatico e come tali inaffidabili e io non sono ancora così bravo con la lingua. Non si potrebbe avere una trascrizione in giapponese almeno del periodo 0:22- 1:01 che mi pare particolarmente poetico? Grazie comunque.

... and interestingly, he has not even one single grey hair in spite of his advanced age. Possibly a miracle? Or a side effect of his stylistic approach? He could, with a little bad luck, turn completely monochromatic?

Must make all the people who go through their photography gear fell pretty worthless to know they keep buying the latest cameras and lenses to find their work is still shit. Daido proves that expensive gear and megapixels in the majority of photography is bullshit and isn't required. I wish people would get this through into their heads.

In addition, his essence lies in the photographic development process. Daido Moriyama was in charge of developing Yukio Mishima's famous photo book ”Barakei (1963)”, created by his master Eikoh Hosoe.

+Depacr Hi, this film was shot with a Canon 5D Mk III. Hope that helps!

Absolutely, thank you so much!

Had a feeling but you all made wonderful use of it in kind of embodying Sir Moriyama's artistic perspective. Cheers!

I thought he shoots Ricoh GR

Gr-21 film camera. Not sure if he still ever uses it now that he's using digital.

Hi Arash, The soundtrack is by Emu Masuyama.

Emu Masuyama.

Thanks for watching! Music for this is by Emu Masuyama

@@Tate I tried searching for the artist but nothing comes up on google, does this person have a music page? I absolutely love the track in this video, I would love to listen to its entirety

watch credits

You're thinking of Murakami, no?

Ricoh gr IV. And the Ricoh gr1v for film. He probably is using the Ricoh gr which the the Ricoh gr 5. Great camera. Quiet. Fast.

Ben not its not a ricoh. It has zoom and the ricoh doesn't.

nikon a900 (previous versions); he doesnt use ricoh for a long time

For period around the early 2000’s he also used a Ricoh GR21. A rare small film compact with a 21mm lens. With his technique and b+w grainy aesthetic it produced really dynamic images. This is the work that really caught my eye.

He shot with the Ricoh GR for a few years. It has a cult following because of him.

looks like a nikon with zoom lens

@@Fjalll thanks Daniel!

@@SpaghettiPaparazzi thks

He's mostly famous for using the Ricoh GR series, in the video and various other interviews he used a random cheap zoom nikon coolplix, and he recently advocated a Sony RX mini action camra
