searching Kuala Lumpur for photo dealers

[sebastel]

hiya folks,
during my stay in kuala lumpur, malaysia, i was looking for photo gear shops - and found many, just none offering used gear and/or rangefinder gear.

does someone here know?
recommendations would be sincerely welcome.

by the way, probably i'll not be able to login here again before monday, so, son't be surprised not to find a response from my side before.

se ya soon,
and thanks again.

regards
sebastian

Keat Camera, Pudu area, KL. Tel: - 03-21480447
YL Camera, Pudu Plaza, KL. Tel: 012-3806733 / 03-21487810, ask for Desmond. Email: ylcamera@yahoo.com
J-One Camera Service, Amcorp Mall P.J. Tel: 03-79577778/012-2892858 Ask for Jason. Email: j_one@streamyx.com

These are probably the only ones with good secondhand gear. Keat is more high-end, regularly has Leica SLR and RF gear in their second-hand cameras display case. Desmond at YL Camera has a more mixed selection. Jason has the smallest selection, but he's a skilled repairman who used to work for Nikon service in Malaysia.

You can also browse FS or post WTB notices here:

Also check out Photo Malaysia at www.photomalaysia.com - there are some RF people there.

Cheers,
Nick
