Workshop is the name of the photography school which the first class was held April 22 1974. This school was comprised of classes by six important Japanese photographers: Nobuyoshi Araki, Shomei Tomatsu, Masahisa Fukase, Eikoh Hosoe, Daido Moriyama, and Noriaki Yokosuka, who also edited these issues. As part of the last four editions of Workshop, this issue is stapled in vertical layout, and is comprised of photos, texts, and dialogues by these six photographers. The editing differs from the first four issues in that there is not necessarily a specific organization of the subjects depicted by the photographers.

This issue's main subject is "women". Fukuo Ikeda, a Geribara member, was invited to participate to this issue by Araki. It features, as well, the series "Kako" by Osamu Takizawa, and interviews.
