  I use a number of different cameras for the pictures taken on shibuya246. The camera I started with is the Canon Powershot G10, pocket size and very reliable.

  When I head out for a day of shooting I normally take the Nikon D700 DSLR camera. I have a number of lenses to attach to this one.

  My iPhone 3G also comes in useful for Live Blogging shots and Conbini Monday articles.

  Recently, I have added a menu on the right hand side of every photo, where you can see which camera I took the photo with and what lens was used. Try guessing which camera took the photo and then check.
