Hi, try PHOTOSTOCK (the name says it all):
126, boulevard Serurier 75019 Paris. 33 (0)1 4200 2625. http://www.photostock.fr
clientele@photostock.fr
That's where I buy all my films. I don't think they speak English though.
 
These's a shop in the 6eme, maybe on Bd. St Germain, called Odeon. Good service, Leica dealer. Check 'em out.
 
Bd. Beaumarchais is also known as the Bd. de la Photographie. Métro: Filles du Calvaire, and walk AWAY from Bastille. But it's more oriented to hardware than to cheap film.

Cheers,

R.

A quick Interweb search indicates that it is at 72, avenue des Gobelins 75013 PARIS... which matches well with the street number in the left-hand side of the photo :)

EDIT: Near the Place d'Italie metro station, apparently.
 
Yeah, it is pretty easy to find. From Place D'Italie walk down the avenue like you are headed right to Les Gobelins station. It's on the left, before you get to the Manufacture des Gobelins museum (if memory serves). BUT, it was always shut when I went by so I never got inside.
 
There is a FNAC store in the 6th I think. They have a range of film and will probably have a photo exhibition s well as they are great supporters of photgraphy. In that area look in at Chambre claire bookshop and gallery at 14 Rue St Sulpice 75006.

Bon voyage and enjoy that beautiful city.
 
There is a FNAC almost right next to Gare St. Lazare if you're in a pinch. They usually have an OK selection of film and memory cards if needed.

You beat me to it, it is on St. Germain, not far from Metro Odeon, where two lines metro lines converge. They used to have two shops, connected, one for new and one for used. Very nice people, they cleaned out my Nikon once for me after I dropped it in some sand.

No charge.

It is Odeon Photo, it is on the side of the street toward the River, North? Across from the movies, toward the post office. They used to have a good stock of MF and 35mm films.

I used to stay near Place Odeon, at Grand Hotel del Balcons, I hear Alexander is still at the desk, if you wander by, ask if he still has the Nikkormat I brought him. ;-) It is a 3* hotel at a 2* price, charming place, on Casimir De La Vigne, No. 3.

You might find some photos at the street markets near by, the Pont Neuf is very close.

You will be treated well.

FNAC is a chain, you might find one in a number of locations, a friend worked at one near Chatelet.

Regards, John

Most dangerous street in Paris. ;-) Maison du Leica? A Nikon shop there has an amazing wall of Nikons.
