This afternoon I stopped by the annual classic camera fair at the Takashimaya in Shinjuku.  This was one of but many display cases containing photographic equipment totaling several times what I spent on my college education.

Cheap film at Kitamura camera, West Exit of Shinjuku station (and across from the burger king).  178 yen a roll (about $2.00 US) isn’t bad, but it used to be 100 yen a roll a year or two ago. 
This Kitamura shop has a good used equipment selection up on the 4th floor. The bigger shop is in Akihabara across the street north of the Yodobashi Camera there.

Remember that Black Paint Leica MP with a well worn 35mm Summicron?   The owner was kind enough to send me some pictures of the M4-2 which that lens was mounted to and shot with for the past 31 years.  Check them out here.
