The 60 Year Old Camera Shop

Camera Shop Celebrates 60 Years in Business: In this age of online shopping and warehouse outlets it is unusual to find independent camera stores. In this episode we visit a shop in South London that is celebrating 60 years in business. We chat with the owners about the business, their love of Leica cameras and how their shop is the favourite of a Hollywood super star!

Very sorry to have to report that Reg Roach, a great and beloved friend to many of his customers, passed away at the age of 91 on 2 May, 2022. And, unfortunately, the store is closing down--Reg's son Paul will continue the business in some form, but he is moving to only online sales. I was privileged to have frequented the store, and enjoyed Reg and Paul's company, for nearly 15 years. There was no other place like it, and its loss--and the passing of Reg--will be deeply felt by many.

The good old, black and white camera was the best, just like the movies, back then, the best

Cool video. You'll need to watch out for that Hands character though. He'll be starting his own YouTube channel, he's a natural. :-)
