Hello everyone,

Here we'll go again, here is a 10+ days road trip through California, Nevada, Utah, and Arizona, so I am looking for good advices about camera shops still providing film (35 mm and 120) in the area, i.e L.A, Vegas.

I also spotted two years ago the neat Terry Alderman Camera shop when driving through Kanab, UT. However, I am a little worried about the current status of the shop, since the website domain seems for sale, and there is very few hints of recent activity on the Net past March 2018.

This town will be about 45 miles from one of our stay, it's surely worth a drive, but only if still open :smile:

Thanks,

Regards,

Raphael

On google maps Alderman is still open! https://www.google.com/maps/@37.048...4!1skQ9qG1JPdJ8Sh4rKfTW0Uw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656
I walked past last November and it was close but there was a sign with a phone number on door, pity because there were some cool vintage cameras in the windows. If you go I'd recommend Kanab Creek Bakery too, and there's in interesting gallery next door.

I've bought extra film at B&C camera in Las Vegas, stock is not huge, black&white selection is good, alas, they where out of 120 Ektar when I was there. Good store, but I'd call if I wanted to buy a lot. You can also just bring your film, haven't had trouble flying in and out with film.

Valley of Fire is awesome!

Thanks to all of you for your answers !
@Sirius Glass : not sure for Red Rock Canyon, but Valley of Fire is on our must-do list :smile:
@gijsbert : Many thanks ! There is good chance, then, but I will try to phone first, maybe. Thanks a lot about the Bakery advice, good to know ! I have noticed also B&C Camera, but opening hours (even on Sunday) will probably not match our first stay at Vegas.
@Arklatexian : thanks :smile: But sadly, not enough time for us going New Mexico and a little more to the South. We are going to make a loop to the North-East, Arches, Zion, until Great Canyon, Flagstaff, and back to Las Vegas.
