no i don't trust, but he seems to be the only person invited by tokina to do a review or something. japan got many pros (that's what they are called literally) i must say some are really good, some are mediocre. actually you can really call yourself a pro if you own a slr/dslr in japan, because the average folks have no interest in owning one, those who own are either cash-rich old and retired or working pros. others just use pns :bsmilie:
