Hong Kong is a paradise for various hobbies. For me, the top Vintage Camera shops in Hong Kong are the following;
1. Metour HK. Joe is a nice guy and this is the shop where I got hooked into photography. The shop is next to CWB MTR and its a cool place. I bought Keith and myself our own camera here. Joe has many vintage and new Leica cameras. However, if you are new comer who needs advice, better wait for Joe to be in his shop before you visit (after 330 or 4pm). Shop have many rare Leica Black paint camera M2, M3..be careful...be preprared to pay.
2. 9 Days Photo & Camera. Daniel the owner is a nice guy who often is willing to take the time to teach and educate new photographer like me. He has many nice camera with a clear focus on vintage Leica. As a result of his excellence service and the willingness to teach, I have bought several rare Leica camera and lenses from him. Shop closed on Sunday and Monday. Be careful as he has many nice gears and be prepared to pay.
3. Fotopia. I have not been able to visit the shop owing to relocation. I ahev managed to whatsapp them for enquirers but have not have a close up experience yet.
