Looking around the Y-Tube I found this interesting little film/advert about a slice of heaven in a shop in Paris.

Have anybody here been there?
If so please tell everything, this looks like a shop you could spend a entire day in. (And ruin yourself financially at the same time)

Excellent find. I love the self lacing projector at 0:35. Is the song by Nat King Cole?

Any super 8 spots in Paris?

Great store. The projector is a Hokishin we had one when I did a 16mm projection course back in the 80's......along with 8 other types!

Wonderful"hole in the wall" [Wink]

Such a shop would starve in Auckland.In the late '80s an 8mm store opened in our local Mall.It had masses of Chinons and Sankyo's plus a good selection of new digests.Although everything was "dirt cheap",the place attracted zero custom and within a month folded!;-(
