Seller's Story
Based in Tokyo, I have 10 years of experience and have handled over 10,000 vintage cameras—from Leica and Nikon to medium and large format cameras.
Having inspected over 10,000 items, I understand that "a perfect vintage piece does not exist." This is why I personally and honestly inspect every item for issues like fungi, haze, or separation.
Your order will be cleaned and packed with the utmost Japanese care. I am committed to a transparent and sincere transaction for every collector.
