On September 30, 2004, Kubodera and his team became the first people to photograph a live giant squid in its natural habitat. With his partner Kyoichi Mori of the Ogasawara Whale Watching Association, Kubodera captured photos of the elusive giant squid with his special cameras, after three years of attempts. The cameras, which were able to store 600 photos, were programmed to flash and take a picture every 30 seconds.
