According to the 1925 census, Tottori had a population of 472 thousand (and was the sole prefecture with under half a million people). The populations of Tokyo, Osaka, Hyōgo and Kyoto prefectures were, respectively, 4.49M, 3.06M, 2.45M and 1.40M. (Aichi, Fukuoka and Hokkaidō each had a population of over two million.)

Shinkō shashin (新興写真, literally "new photography") "differed strikingly from Pictorialism, which had been the leading form of art photography in Japan. The goal of the New Photography movement, which flourished from about 1930 on, was creative expression possible only through photography, making effective use of the mechanistic nature of the camera and lens."

Shiotani's pseudonyms: Sadako Shiotani (塩谷貞子, his wife's name), Sōnosuke Shiotani (塩谷宗之助, his first son's name), Gyokkō Shiotani (塩谷玉光), Yukiko Inoue (井上幸子), Kaoru Ōyama (大山香), Sadayoshi Shioi (塩井定好). (When printed until the late 1940s, 塩 would normally have appeared as 鹽.) By contrast, Teikō (the name by which he came to be known as a photographer) was not a pseudonym but instead a yūsoku-yomi [ja; ko] (reading used for professional purposes) of his actual name 定好 (first intended to be read as "Sadayoshi"). Most references to Shiotani in Japanese do not specify the pronunciation of 定好; where specified, it is usually "Teikō" but occasionally "Sadayoshi". Some early prints are marked "S.SIOTANI" or "SSIOTANI"; the example here of the latter is from the 1925/1926 print, also shown in this article, of Bird's-Eye View of a Village. ("Siotani" is the equivalent in Kunrei or Nihon romanization to "Shiotani" in Hepburn romanization.) By contrast, many postwar prints are signed with the single character 塩 (i.e. "Shio"); these include plates 78, 79, 81, 82, 84 in The Age of Art Photography. The form "Sadayoshi Shiotani" was used in (i) the travelling exhibition Fotografia Giapponese dal 1848 ad Oggi (as evidenced in both the Italian- and the English-language book that accompanied it), (ii) the Photokina exhibition Fotografie 1922–1982 (as evidenced in both its bilingual catalogue and a review: Renee Bruns, "The picture shows", Popular Photography, January 1983, p. 181), and (iii) the March 1988 Photo Metro.
