Anyone know a good Nikon repair shop in Tokyo? (Preferably near-ish to Chiyoda.) Managed to drop my camera last night and would like to try to get it fixed versus shipping it back home for repair. Thanks!
If you didnt buy it in Japan then they will not repair it (no matter how much you offer to pay), just warning you now. This is pretty standard across anything in Japan, though I don’t have personal experience with Nikon, other Japanese brands have refused to repair products they sell in Japan just because I didnt buy it here.
Kitamura camera has lots of locations across Japan. What a previous poster mentioned if you can go straight to Nikon, that’s probably going to be best. If not kitamura is a good second https://www.kitamura.jp/

Most of serious repairs will be sent to Nikon anyway, so just bypass the middleman and directly go to Nikon Plaza in Shinjuku.
You need a reservation.
