Hi,
I am looking at buying a pre-owned Nikkon 18mm-200mm lens for my DSLR camera. Are there any reliable shops that sell 2nd hand camera lenses ?
Grateful for all prompt replies.
Try Mirama Camera on 25 Stanley Street. They normally have a good selection.
thanks axptguy , stanley street has been recommended to me by others as well, will definitely look them up. I am a bit surprised that despite such a vibrant camera market, HK has very few choices on lens exchange :(
I hear you. As I have noted before on these forums, HK looks like a great place to shop but is in many ways quite mainstream. Obscure items are often tricky or impossible to locate.
Also, and I am generalizing, but my impression is that locals typically want to buy new when it comes to luxury items. Certainly the car market is like that. Locals buy all the new BMW and Mercedes. Expats pick them up second hand.
Hing Lee (i think that is the name) on Lyndhurst Terrace, just under the escalator. Good people. Mostly Canon stuff perhaps, but he might be able to help.

Ask these guys Photo Scientific Appliances Ltd.; 6 Stanley St., Central, Hong Kong; tel: 2522 0871
thanks Ed & Rasbro. I called Photo Scientific Appliances and they sell only brand new lenses.
Axptguy - couldnt agree with you more. People in HK def like to purchase new luxury items ; I get such amusing responses from camera shops when i inquire about a second hand nikon lens :)
You can also check out the second hand lenses at Dragon Centre in Sham Shui Po. I saw a lot of 2nd hand lenses near one of the Nikon dealers there. Don't know about quality though.
Punter - great, that Sham Shui Po's Dragon Centre sounds like a good place to check these out !
Dipper - as an aside I would not classify the 18-200 as a luxury item. To OP, your best bet is to post a WANTED post in review33.com Someone is offering to sell their 18-200 along with DSLR. Maybe you can ask if they will sell separately. Get a Chinese colleague to help you as this site is mainly Chinese.
dipper, I'm glad to be proven wrong on that one! ;)

I checked out dcfever.com and located more than 20 listings of 18mm-200mm, thats amazing, it's in cantonese so had to have my assistant work on a user ID

We've been to the place Dipper mentions for camera repairs. Its on Kimberley Rd, opposite side of the rd to Knutsford terrace, but slightly further down towards the junction of Nathan rd. They do have lots of second hand lenses
Lots of nikonians here, anyone know what the market is like for Pentax gear? Love to find a 50mm f1.4 or f1.7. Maybe even a good macro lens.
I am looking for a Minolta f4 600 and Minolta TC's
any ideas which shops could possibly have this?
Any other lists other than dcfever.com (something in English) I dont have help in cantonese
I finally got my Nikon 18mm-200mm from Sham Shui Po. There are quite a few shops on the perimeter of the golden computer mall that are dedicated to selling/buying lenses - new and second hand. Would recommend them.
Hi...
Is there anyone know where could I sell my pocket camera Sony DSC-J10, still in good condition only 2 month old.
Thank you,
Ivy
