ร้านกล้องฟิล์ม UNIT Film Cameras
อาคาร Lido Connect, ชั้นที่ 2, Rama I Rd, Wang Mai, Pathum Wan, Bangkok 10330
Start with the Contax and Leica section if you know what you want, but the mid-range Japanese SLR wall is where the value sits. Prices run honest for Bangkok vintage camera retail. Worth the trip for the sheer density of working film gear in one browsable room.
You step off the escalator at Lido Connect's second floor and the camera counter is already visible. UNIT Film Cameras imports every body, lens, and accessory from Japan, then sorts the inventory into clearly marked sections by brand and format. The Leica M6 sits in the premium case at 88,000 to 97,000 baht. Mid-range film bodies from Canon, Nikon, Olympus, and Minolta occupy the center shelves at 4,500 to 19,000 baht. Budget digital point-and-shoots line the entry wall at 1,500 to 8,500 baht.
The shop operates seven days a week from 11AM to 8PM. Phone and walk-in inquiries go to the same counter. Every used camera carries a seven-day warranty, stated upfront. The staff answers questions about shutter count, light seal condition, and lens fungus without overselling. Most of the room is devoted to 35mm rangefinders and SLR bodies, with a smaller section for medium-format Rollei and Contax models. Lenses get their own dedicated wall, priced up to 52,000 baht for fast glass.
UNIT also sells online via Shopify, Lazada, and Shopee, so the physical stock rotates as orders ship out. The shop does not offer repair services or film development. You are here to buy working vintage cameras, not to service them. The selection skews toward collectors and working film photographers who know their way around manual focus and aperture priority modes. If you need a functional film body and want to inspect it in person before buying, this is the densest concentration of tested Japanese imports in central Bangkok.
