A series of fortunate events brings me to Tokyo and Kyoto next week. Can someone recommend photo galleries in Tokyo and/or Kyoto? I am not above fondling some collectible cameras either!

Thx,
Jon

I was just in Tokyo. I visited a few photo exhibits, but none were galleries selling prints.

here are a couple of notes:

lunch at megutama photobook cafe was kind of fun
http://megutama.com/en/what-is-megutama/
I almost walked right pas this place, did not immediately recognize from the web site photos.
They have an English menu

photo gallery (I did not make it here)
http://gallery916.com/access/

totem pole photo gallery (did not make it here either)

Tokyo Metro Photo Museum -- Hiroshi Sugimoto exhibit and new photography exhibit
Most of the Sugimoto exhibit is not strongly photographic, but still very interesting
much info in English here

enjoy your trip!
