Hello all
A slightly off-topic question for those of this group living in California or better, in the San Francisco Bay Area Two friends of the French medium and large format forum galerie-photo.info will visit San Francisco soon and are asking about recommended Photo bookstores, galleries and photo shops to visit in San Francisco and surroundings.
I've stayed in the SF Bay Area in 1990 for 6 months, so I'm interested by the advice for myself as well, all I know is now probably totally obsolete. There was an Ansel Adams Gallery downtown close to Gasser's, I know that this AA gallery has been closed for a decade or so ; is it possible to see some prints by Saint Ansel in the SF Bay area, or do you have to go to Carmel or Yosemite ? or any other place in California for this ?
I also doubt that present photo stores will show as many Rolleiflex & classical cameras in their used department as 20 years ago.. for a soon-to-be member of this group, coming from Europe, California photo stores were often kind of dream stores with shelves stuffed with medium and large format cameras in quantities and varieties hard to find in France. Good old days !
