You know, the type that pros use. Big, bulky, heavily padded with lots of zippers and compartments.

I can’t find a real camera store anywhere in Panama City.

I went to Allbrook, the home of everything under the sun. I went to Panafoto, Photura, AudioFoto and Photovision. With names like these you might think they would have some camera equipment, above and beyond the snap and shoot cameras that every store in Panama seems to sell.

Unfortunatly, what I learned was that if you are looking for blow dryers for your hair, a microwave, a beard trimmer or an air-conditioner, these places are great.

However, if you want camera gear, the best bet I’ve found so far is to go online and have it shipped. Yeah – sucks.

Does anyone know of a camera store in Panama?
