Hi Sonja:
The best field guide is Mark Brazil's "Birds of East Asia", although
it is not so light. Another good one is "A Photographic Guide to the
Birds of Japan and North-east Asia" by Tadao Shimba.
There is an app for birds of Japan, which you can download from iTunes
but it doesn't cover all birds recorded in Japan.
Cheers,
John
