when i was travelling in nagano, the rewind knob of my new film camera fell off and went missing. i came into this store to ask if they had the parts and the kind owner and his wife spent a lot of time searching through their spare parts to help me. even though they didn't have all the complete parts, he fixed the camera for me, got it working and even cleaned the inside as it had some mould i hadn't noticed when i bought it the week before in kyoto. on top of that, he only asked for ¥100 for all this effort. i bought a roll of film to thank him and he helped show me how to load it as it was my first time using this camera. thank you for going above and beyond in your service!...

I asked the manager for a quote on my own equipment and his price was fair. Film...

I came in for a manual slr but the seller recommended an automatic slr with a very high zoom lens, and i am very happy i listened to him it is my most favorite camera. Will definitely come back for my second camera when i am...
