About Japan Camera Hunter
Welcome to my site of many wonders, feel free to contact me if you have any questions
My name is Bellamy Hunt, AKA Japancamerahunter. I live in Tokyo and love exploring the city, taking pictures and sharing my photographic knowledge with people. If you are ever in town drop me a line. You cannot miss me, I will be the guy walking around with a camera, a camera bag, a camera T-shirt and a nice shiny head. Chances are you will see me in one of the many camera shops around town.

I source quality cameras and other photographic equipment from Japan to customers around the world. Having built strong connections in the camera industry over the past seven years as a buyer and broker in Tokyo I am able to quickly and expertly meet the needs of each customer on an individual basis. No matter what it is you are looking for Japan has it, and I can find it. Contact me here to learn more.
Now then. There are lots of questions about what I do. Which I have answered in some cases. But just in case you missed them then you can follow the links here:

I also take pictures sometimes and some of my images can be seen on flickr. You can also follow me on twitter .
Oh and I have a tumblr too.
