    Try John Gunns Camera shop. He always has a few in stock. The best place after that is Adverts.ie as none of the other shops really deal in film cameras any more.

    Or Ebay ? I've picked up ... a few ... on ebay over the years. Adverts ? Meet your friendly boards members and buy cameras ! What's not to like.

    I was in there yesterday. There was a Canon T-70 on the shelf - I don't know if it was for sale or not, but there're usually a few second hand for sale.



    There's a second-hand shop on Talbot Street towards Connolly Station end, that 'had' some old Soviet Cameras in the window. I don't know what condition they were in mind.


    Needful things on Aungier Street sometimes has old cameras - but they're often non-functional. I did get a lightmeter for a Canon P there by sheer serendipity.

    Of course, that's exactly why I went in.

    Bought a Canon P while I was on holidays and, a week after I came home on the way to Gunn's to get me photos developed I dropped in and - sure enough - they happened to have a lightmeter for a P. And nothing else off one. A strange accesory to find orphaned, when you think about it.
