ABOUT PANDA CAMERA

Take a photo, take it easy.

I believe that photography allows urbanites to find a temporary escape from the fast-paced, stressful life of Hong Kong.

Over twenty years ago, I began shooting with film. However, as digital cameras rapidly became the mainstream, many brands stopped producing new film cameras. Consequently, I often had to hunt for the gear I wanted in second-hand shops. Due to the high cost of rent in Hong Kong, these stores were typically cramped and cluttered—a situation we all simply got used to.

Everything changed during a trip to Japan. I discovered that second-hand camera stores there were spacious, tidy, and impeccably organized—a stark contrast to what I knew back home. That experience inspired me to open a shop with a comfortable atmosphere and friendly service, creating a welcoming space for fellow film enthusiasts.

Thanks to the hard work of our team over the years, we have expanded our services and our product range. We have grown from carrying just a few types of film to offering the most comprehensive selection in Hong Kong today. Additionally, we now curate top-tier cameras across both film and digital categories. My hope is that everyone who visits our store finds something that speaks to them and rediscovers the pure joy of photography.

Let’s take some photos!
