Do not miss Madamasu's same series in 1980 > http://forum.mflenses.com/tokyo-fishmarket-1980-t21761.html
These were all shot by Nikon F3HP + Ai35/1.4S + Fuji Reala, scanned by
Nikon Coolscan IV (which was broken long ago, this scanner is better
than V700 resolution wise and better software).
In chronological order, outside->inside->outside. The outside has many shops which normal person can shop and dine,
some sushi store today are very good (of course very fresh). Those are originally for wholesalers who came very early
around 4 a.m., we went there around 7 a.m. so climax was already over. When you come to here, it is better come as
much as early, you can do it since you might have time lug when come to japan anyway.

There must be a HUGE amount of infrastructure here! I can only
imagine moving all the seafood around, keeping it cold, getting it
up for display! 
What species are the very large fish? They look
solid and delicious...possibly tuna?

Hi all, it is a quite interesting place. Past many years they closed
the place for biddings, luckily they reopened it for visitors.
Yes, it looks like "yellow fin tuna". True blue fin tuna MAGURO is much larger.

Bluefin tuna fishing has not been downpaced since taking these photos, actually hunting has been speed up. Corporations like Mitsubishi are freezing it well aware that it will be extinct in only a few years, intent to capitalize on frozen stock.
If you want to have a follow-up on these excellent slides you need to hurry, because it won't take more than year 2012 to show no tuna anymore at Tsukiji  |

When I was in japan this month, I saw TV program for the new business venture,
in which some one succeeded culturing bluefin tuna from egg, so the future is
no too bleak for sushi eaters like myself.
