So I have been here in Tokyo for about 4 months now just looking around. Area after area, shop after shop. Feels like I have been up and down Akihabara 1000x looking for analog video cameras but I never find any. Do anyone know any shops that specialize in that or if any other place got any.
Regular analog camera gear is plenty but I specifically are looking for video cameras. Old canons etc.
All help is appreciated!

I’ll sell you my [Canon L2 Hi-8 camcorder](https://global.canon/en/c-museum/product/8mmvc373.html).
Did you check that one shop on the main drag of Akiba that has a ton of film cameras? It’s on the side of the street opposite the station. South Asian guy runs it IIRC. I feel like I’ve seen analog video cameras there before.
What do you mean Analogue video cameras? Are you talking about something that records direct to film, like a pre-00s film movie camera? Because any consumer technology since the 80s has all used analogue to digital converters in some form or another.
Search analog camera shops in shinjuku!
Nakano has camera shops that have old film camera too. Fuji Camera? Worth trying them
