Shops in St. Louis, MO

[whereshaldo]

I'll be in St. Louis, MO in a few weeks and I'm wondering if there are any interesting camera shops worth checking out. I'd prefer a good selection of used vintage equipment, but I'd browse almost anywhere that isn't a mega-chain.

The two that I would have recommended 5 years ago are no longer in business.

Creve Coeur Camera's location on Olive has a good selection of vintage gear at times. You might want to call first and ask for Craig. He knows more about the vintage stuff than the others.

Also check out Schillers. They have some great prices on used stuff but they don't have much vintage gear. Last Sunday, someone told me that he just bought a used DW-4 (6X finder) for his Nikon F3 at Schillers for $50!

When will you be in STL and for how long?
