DigitalHeMan Posted January 25, 2014 Share #2 Posted January 25, 2014 There is a large camera store that sells Leica close to the Hilton Osaka. Sorry, can't remember the name, but if you walk past the Hilton coming from the station it is on a street on the left. You could try there....

Do you remember its only a store or a store with some repair service? It's just a store I think, but since they also deal in secondhand there is a fair chance they will know where to get things repaired, if they can't do it themselves Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ecar Posted January 26, 2014 Share #7 Posted January 26, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) Ouch. A similar misadventure happened to me years ago (not in Osaka, though). I had brought only one lens with me on a short trip and the aperture blades got jammed. Since I could not locate a suitable repair shop - or one that could do the job quickly enough - and smartphones were yet to appear back then, I ended up buying a very cheap (20$ or so) used Russian lens, so that I could keep taking pictures. FWIW, I still have (and occasionally use) the lens... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find that store and they manage to get my lens back but camera is not ok unless i left it there for a week. So this film trip turned to be another digital trip...I also bought a camera PENTAX Q7 there, maybe spend some money will bring me some good luck. Thx a lot and i will move to kyoto tomorrow.
