Where to Buy Camera in the Philippines

Here are some stores where you can purchase that latest digicam, parts, accessories and other such items.

You'll find practically everything here. Among the more interesting things:

* Darkroom chemicals and supplies, papers, tanks, trays, and (few)enlargers;
* Enlargers and lenses, albeit few and far between these days;
* Second hand curiosities like Dual Lens Reflex Bronicas, Nikon Fs, the occasional Leica, old Mamiyas and Yashicas? lots of neat stuff, in various states of wear or disrepair;
* Camera repair shops who will clean lenses and fix mechanical;
* All manner of films from the plain (Kodak Gold) to the slightly esoteric (Ilford 3200's), and even a few that defy categorization (lucky, colpan, etc);
* Rechargeable batteries and their accompanying rechargers;
* Bits and pieces–lens caps, body caps, cables, filters;
* Tripods galore, Manfrotto and Slik among others;
* Studio lighting, strobes and bulbs, diffusers, umbrellas, softboxes;
* Camera bags and lots of other accessories;
* Film and digital cameras (and accessories) across all major brands, and, of course;
* Everything Nikon and Canon.

While the selection may be far from complete, it sure beats any mall-based store you can find. And everything is within walking distance.
