While visiting my son, a student at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, Virginia, I stumbled upon a
camera store that had B&W chemicals, B&W film, and a surprisingly large collection of used 35mm lens,
35mm film cameras, and used medium format equipment. Quite a nice surprise!

(I have no financial interest in the store... just want to pass on a great resource!)

I drive nearly three hours to go there... like a photo store from the old days PLUS all the digital cameras, papers, inks, etc.

The owner, Bill Moretz, is also an expert repairman and has a full machine shop to make parts from scratch - if you have the scratch. For me, he has CLA'd, calibrated rangefinders, tweaked the curtains in my RB Graflex 4x5, etc. Best walk in camera store I've seen in ages - and the staff is well informed.

It is a combination of a museum and going through a time warp.
