Where can I buy a camera in Hong Kong?

About going to Hong Kong to buy photographic equipment

When buying photographic equipment in Hongkong, the first choice is Fengze and Broadway, two time-honored electrical chains, and Yong Cheng/Wancheng, who started from selling cameras, so professional aquatic products will be better than the above two.

The above companies sell genuine digital products, so the quality is guaranteed. As for the price, licensed products are basically the same, of course, more expensive than parallel imports, but there is a domestic warranty or at least the original factory warranty.

Where can I buy a camera in Hong Kong? If we go to Hong Kong to buy electronic products, many friends will immediately think of Mong Kok. In fact, Mong Kok is a place where shops are very concentrated, especially large chain stores like Okanagan Valley, Broadway and Laser (some of which are similar to Suning and Gome in Chinese mainland). So it is really convenient to buy your favorite electronic products, including cameras.

But if you want to buy a camera, it seems that there are more concentrated shops in other places. You can know that there are many non-chain camera shops scattered in various districts of Hong Kong, especially stanleystreet in Central, Hong Kong Island and Champagne Building in Tsim Sha Tsui. Let's take a look at the specific goods and prices, and provide consumption reference for everyone.

Mong Kok, Hong Kong:

English: Mong Kok, located in Yau Tsim Mong District, Hong Kong, is to the west of Kowloon. There are many new and old buildings; Most floors of old residential buildings are shops or restaurants. With Nathan Road as the boundary, shopping centers are concentrated in the east and residential areas are in the west. Electronic products stores are mainly concentrated in Xiyangcai South Street, Mong Kok Computer Center and Xianda Square. Consumers can buy all kinds of cameras in Broadway, Okanagan Valley, Laser and other large-scale electrical chain stores, Yong Cheng photographic equipment stores and other large-scale photographic equipment stores, as well as small camera stores.

It is very famous and convenient to buy cameras in Mong Kok, but there are also many profiteers who are fooled, so be careful to be cheated.

Stanley Street, Hong Kong:

Stanleystreet, also known as Stanley Street, is a crowded street in the middle of Hong Kong Island. Located near the central subway station, it runs east and west, balancing between Queen's Road and Wellington Street. Stanley Street is a very historic street. Now there are many specialty food shops and camera shops with very old qualifications. Of course, for photographers, shopping around is also a very good choice.

How to get to Stanley Street in Central?

In Hong Kong, subway is a very convenient means of transportation. The subway in Hong Kong touches almost all the prosperous areas, which is extremely convenient. Our first destination is Stanley Street in the central part of Hong Kong Island. There are two subway stations nearby, namely Hong Kong Station and Central Station, which is a little closer.

As for pedder street, tvb once had an office sitcom "Beat One's Own", which was set in this street.

The overall introduction of Stanley Street camera shop:

There are not many camera shops in Stanley Street, but the rumors are very old, and these shops are not next to each other, but scattered all over the street. More importantly, these camera shops will not be as crowded as Wangdian in Mong Kok. We can choose products slowly and have a very good communication with the owner. It's easy to say that the owners of these stores are easy to talk to. For example, when Bian Xiao offered to photograph the price for friends' reference, the shopkeeper would readily agree.

The camera shops on Stanley Street are all mixed brands of equipment, selling new and old products, and not only digital cameras. There are also many new and old film cameras and various interesting accessories, such as filters and camera bag holders. There is a simple reason. The rent of shops in Hong Kong is expensive, and this setting is really convenient for consumers to spend in one stop.

There are also several print shops (some of which are located in camera shops) on Stanley Street, which are engaged in film processing, digital printing and other businesses. The price of printing 3r/4r photos is about 0. It's HK$ 7 each, and the price is ok.

Apart from the camera shop, Stanley Street is a Jin Duo restaurant, which not only has many distinctive Hong Kong-style meals, but also some exotic styles.

The Lu Yu Tea Room seen above is a famous shop with a history of more than 60 years. You can buy a camera and enjoy authentic Hong Kong cuisine!

Products and prices of camera shop in Stanley Street, Hong Kong:

Canon's machines and cameras still have a price advantage in Hong Kong. It is even more worthwhile to buy a more expensive machine like 5dii in Hong Kong. It was in a shop in Stanley Street, Central that we got the lowest price of 65,438+05,000 Hong Kong paper.

Compared with Chinese mainland, the price of Canon lenses is also very attractive, and some are cheaper than mainland licensed products 1000 yuan.

The following are the prices of Panasonic products. The price difference of gf3 dual-head machine is good, and the m4/3 system is 20mmf 1. The price of 7 is also more reliable.

The horse-passing lens also has a certain price advantage, and the price difference is maintained within several hundred yuan.

In contrast, the price difference of Nikon products is not big, and some products are equivalent to the quotations of some mainland merchants after conversion.

Where is the right place to buy SLR lenses in Hong Kong?

1. When you go to Hong Kong as a stranger, you may not find Yong Cheng, dcfever, Henghui, Broadway and Okanagan Valley in Mong Kok, and if you don't have any activities, you won't have any price advantage. It is better to go to Taobao buy buy to buy it, and the price is probably cheaper than going to Hongkong by yourself. This is my experience in buying electrical appliances in Hong Kong and Japan, which is really not as good as Taobao.

Generally, you can swipe your credit card several times to raise money, but sometimes the merchant may disagree because there is a handling fee.

3. Generally, there is a duty-free allowance for bringing a camera back, which seems to be HK$ 5,000 per person, but in fact, as long as you throw away the packaging and bills, no one will check you if you only bring a camera back. Except for a few times, they are not very strict.

Where can I buy a camera with good reputation and moderate price in Hong Kong?

Tsim Sha Tsui can be said to be a paradise for photographers, because there are not only a large number of concentrated camera shops, but also a wide range of them, and the prices are the most affordable. Of course, this benefit refers to the price of parallel imports. Let's talk about the distribution of each store first. Want to buy a new parallel machine, there are two stores worth visiting, Tian Xiang Photographic Equipment Company and Salon Audio & Video. Tianxiang, located on the ground floor of Dongying Building, Nathan Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, is a must-see place for many mainland and even foreign photographers to come to Hong Kong. Because of its complete variety and large scale, it can cater to the different needs of experts from all walks of life. Almost all well-known brands of cameras can be found here, with new and second-hand goods gathered together, and even small accessories such as camera bags have a variety of choices. Tianxiang's boss claims that his specialties are European brands, such as Kangtaishi, Lulai and so on. The price is not too cheap after many comparisons, but its victory lies in the goods, reputation and quality are guaranteed. The location of "Salon Video" is hard to find. In Yichang Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, although it is only a few minutes away from the Tsim Sha Tsui subway exit, take the coastal defense road at the exit of Kowloon Park and turn into Hankou Road at the second crossing. There is a small crosswalk of tens of meters in the middle. The storefront of "Salon Audio-visual" is also very inconspicuous. The window facing the street is not filled with equipment like other stores, but some posters of cameras are posted. There are only packaging cartons on the shelves in the store, which contain all kinds of camera lenses. The variety of this shop is not complete, most of them are Japanese brands. It's best to think about the model to be bought in advance, ask if it is in stock, and then ask the price of parallel imports directly. General quotations will be cheaper than other stores, which is their advantage. Since they mainly do wholesale, you won't be too keen on buying only one or two things. Buying a camera is not as simple as buying clothes and cosmetics. If you have determined the purchase target, I suggest you call the stores to inquire about the current price before going, and make a comparison with the price of your photographic equipment before making a decision, because at present, the parallel prices of some photo studios in Guangzhou are very close to the level of Hong Kong, and the bargaining rate of new parallel imports in Hong Kong is very small, about 5%. If you are interested in second-hand photographic equipment, you must go to the Champagne Building Mall at kimberley road 16. It can be said to be a second-hand photography concentration camp, such as Friends, Loyalty and Hello. The most famous is the "Chen Baking Camera", which is quite famous in mainland photography. Mr. Chen Baking's business card is printed with the words "buying and selling cameras and all photographic equipment from famous factories in various countries". As long as you walk into his three small shops, you will have a deep understanding. Countless camera lenses and so on occupy almost all the space where you can put things. The biggest one mainly sells 135 cameras, two small ones mainly sell 120 cameras and a larger professional landline. Hasselblad alone is dense. The price of aged baking will be relatively high, but don't forget to pay for it. You don't have to worry about the quality when you buy cameras in these old second-hand shops, because you have been an expert for many years and have excellent integrity. As for bargaining, it depends on personal ability. Generally, you can cut about 65,438+05% of the treasure in Champagne House, and there will always be surprises.

Finally, it must be reminded that there are many shops in Tsim Sha Tsui, with all kinds of brand-name cameras and neon lights flashing "tax-free" at the door. Please enter carefully. These stores usually don't have their own store names, and they are all engaged in tourism business. Some deceived people and local friends in Hong Kong have repeatedly warned us not to enter these stores, because although the people in the stores are very enthusiastic, some tricks have to be guarded: for example, if you want to buy that machine, he will say that it is out of stock, and then recommend the so-called updated models to you, which are actually other models with higher prices; It is clearly parallel imports, and he will use various means to claim that it is licensed; It was clearly displayed in Chinese, but he said that only Japanese or English was displayed, and then he said that he could help you convert it into Chinese, but it would cost 300 yuan more. In short, you must shop around before buying a machine, so as to wake up the spirit. I quote it here; FID = 35 tid = 149 1 PID = 3960 page = 1 extra =
