One question I would like to ask, what is worth buying in Japan?
Any particular model? Am going there this coming September.

I'm going to Japan this mid September. I understand that it is Autumn and the view will be very nice when you can see autumn leaves everywhere. But I did some research and they mentioned that normally the leaves started to turn brown from early October to November.

In another words, that means I do not have chance to enjoy the beautiful scenery?

Depends on where in Japan are you going.

Each year, starting in mid September, the "koyo front" slowly moves southwards from the northern island of Hokkaido until it reaches the lower elevations of central and southern Japan towards the end of November. Some trees around Tokyo and Kyoto remain colorful into early December.

My itinerary is mostly southern and central part of Japan.
Any example of how colourful it is?
