How to take Japanese railways

There are many railway companies in JapanAmong them, the private railway closest to meTalk about Nankai Electric RailwayNankai Electric Railway does not pass military trains.To photograph trains and tracksThere are no strict regulations as of 2019But consider the safety of railway operations Take Photo that interferes with safe driving may be punished

Camera equipment that can be used

If you can hold it
You can shoot with a big lens

Commercial photography without permission
It is better not to use any dolly or tripod
Some railway companies may require or prohibit permission

Examples of equipment that can be used for shooting in stations

If you want ruggedness

​Use a selfie stick

There is a reason why this is quite strictly regulated.

Because by any chance high voltage current hits you directly

Let's refrain quiet

It is illegal.

The act of flying a drone is strictly prohibited by law
I will come to catch you soon
---
Stepladders are basic station staff [station premises]
Apply to the Japanese police [For public roads]

But unless you are native to Japanese
It is better not to take the above action

Outside the yellow braille tile of the station
→ Shooting prohibited

The right figure is in Japanese
There's no shooting outside the yellow braille tile

However, this is not easy to protect even for Japanese people.

Because malicious popular people expose the swatches,
Those who come later imitate hypocrites
I ended up annoying railroad workers after all

Yeah
Place
I made it easy to understand

OK Or NG

The shooting NG zone was drawn in red with a big ×

NG photography pattern1

​Nankai Tengatyaya.Stn(NK05)

高野線 8300系 回送

I heard an unusual train came that day.
I was waiting at Nankai Tenkajaya Station [NK05]

Then an unexpected forwarding train appeared
But a few seconds before that,
One man goes to the X zone in the figure above with a dash
Taken with the body on the track
As a result I protected the manner
I was shooting
I was messed up by a man

NG Photographer 2

At Nankai Mikanodai Station【NK71】

高野線 南海8300系快速急行 迷惑行為 鉄オタ 鉄道ファン

I am adjusting the performance of camera equipment.
Take a train

This station is difficult to collect audio-visual information indicating train approach

Are the previous photographers safe in terms of safety?

But this fast train
How many times did you get this kind of shoot before coming here?
I slipped into this station a few minutes later

Advanced shooting

It is not always necessary to shoot from the beginning.
Rather, it seems more foolish to shoot every time from the beginning

Then don't go to the top
If you hold the lens at the boarding position about 20m-30m from the beginning
Sometimes good results

​Request for consideration of portrait rights to railway workers

According to the inquiry form of Nankai Electric Railway

It seems that some users are informed that "I want you to upload it so as not to identify an individual".

So when you shoot a bazooka on the stand of Mikanodai and upload it, let's make a mosaic.

​Portrait rights NG OK criteria

I think the back view of the uniform is OK

I don't think it's an infringement of portrait rights if you're wearing clothes that don't identify you personally and you're in the back.

In addition, the amazing driver is like Namba / Hashimoto and the old direction version.

Writing on a bag I have also seen a so-called senior bag driver on a commercial train.

Of course, the bag will be a treasured image of the inside person, but the Nankai treasured image collection of the inside person is amazing ...

​About operational survey

Recently, people who can not move flexibly are complaining about how to use hashtags such as "# Nankai operation", but since hashtags are the property of each SNS company, others will be different for each hashtag. I don't remember being told the cause.

"I have been harassed to unify the format for the purpose of reprinting."

However, there are accounts in which the person who is speaking should not say such a thing .

Please confirm the position of the account and RT or reprint the third party

If you're an adult, don't you want to hit the words of unfair competition prevention law violations, collusion, and abuse of preferential positions?

Half that is power harassment!

I don't like being reprinted, so some numbers may be changed before delivery.

If you can create a site to reprint, I would like to say that it is preferable for the operation survey reprint site to create a Twitter account and reprint only the tweets of followers, as in the photo contest.

――――

​ As an individual, I would like to know what time and minute B01 formation express Yuki Hashimoto is at A station, so I would like to purchase railway information without being bound by the train number.

At the end of the sentence

Japanese railway photography culture is said to be the world's most relaxed

However, a photographer without such quality will destroy the shooting location
As a result of breaking
Even a good railway company like Nankai someday
Strict regulations could be put in place

Why do not you take a little train when coming from abroad?
Of course, please shoot with safety
