Camera Craniums: The Photography Community for Enthusiasts

If you have any shops you'd like to recommend to the members, please post them in this thread, and I'll add them to the list in this first post. And to the link page.  Thanks.  :tup:

You have ebay listed several times.   You should include Amazon, I buy most of my stuff from the .ca site!  Also include B&H, they ship to the UK and will list UK prices if you use a drop down box.

Should have added this link to my other post about the new battery grip.
Anyways, I have used these a few times for buying gear and they been fine.

THey will also buy your gear if you want to sell, but the last time I offered them some stuff the prices they quoted were not great. You can also part exchange.

I've just gone down my bookmarks, and hopefully I've eliminated any already in, and checked that the links work. SOme are rather specialist interest, reflecting my photography.

Mainly of interest to photographers using film

http://www.retrophotographic.com/
http://www.silverprint.co.uk/
http://www.ag-photographic.co.uk
http://www.frugalphotographer.com

Professional type dealers - possibly limited range but I've used them all.

http://www.robertwhite.co.uk/
http://www.morco.uk.com
http://www.teamworkphoto.com

General photo dealers and a paper supplier
http://www.wilkinson.co.uk
http://www.waltersphotovideo.co.uk/
http://www.on-linepaper.co.uk

Second hand - site awful to navigate unless they've improved it recently.

http://mrcad.co.uk/

Large format film camera dealer and manufacturer (just ordered a camera fro Mike Walker).

http://www.linhofstudio.com
http://www.walkercameras.com

Local dealers - Brighton and Hailsham. Limited stock, but worth a look if you're physically passing. Not many places sell 5x4 film off the shelf - Clock Tower Cameras do.

http://clocktowercameras.co.uk
http://www.camcentre.co.uk

Slight OOPs - RetroPhotographic aren't trading any more, but their site contains useful links rather than items for sale.

Film buffs may find this of use. I visited the showroom last month and was surprised at the range of products available.

Re Mr Cad at Croydon. Well worth a visit to marvel at the s/hand stock there and the way it is all laid out. Not so much an Alladins cave more like Fagins kitchen! :o

Add www.camerapricebuster.co.uk as it lists the prices from most of them shops, with links to them.  :tup:
