man, gotta love this type of help, including the detailed map. i was in paris and pondered grabbing a new cron 90mm asph at a shop there. i didn't for various reasons, including wondering if i'd need to pay a tax when coming back to the states, wondering where the warranty would be good, wondering if i could be my VAT tax back, etc. (i really hadn't looked into any of this beforehand, so it was a little much to be pondering on the fly.) alas, now i'm back in the states, where there have been no new cron 90mm asph lenses in shops this summer and fall ... wishing i had made the purchase in france :(

The by far best shop for Leica in Tokyo is "Lemon Sha" in Ginza. It's in a modern church building on the 8th floor. They have a huge selection of used Leica gear and all the new stuff, too. And you'll find all the accessories as camera bags and A&A products and so on. I really love the shop and visit it everytime I'm in Tokyo.

If you check the Lemon Sha homepage (try google, it's available in english) you'll get a very good description how to find easily the shop.

Have fun in Japan!

Thanks for posting this Nik. I've been to Tokyo dozens of times and had never heard of this store. I'm next there for the week commencing 8th November and will be sure to check it out.
