jason_ware Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I'm passing through Kansai airport, Osaka and I'm hoping to pick up a K100D and perhaps another point and shoot for the Missis. I arrive late afternoon and fly out at lunch time the next day. Can anyone comment on duty-free prices at the airport or the logistics of getting into town? I've heard that Naniwa Camera is good but is it easy to get to and do they speak English?Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill a. Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Not sure where you are located, but my experience so far traveling in Asia (from the US) is that the only place where I could get camera items less expensive than in the US has been Hong Kong. (for me, this includes Taiwan, Japan, and Korea). That includes duty free and just shopping around town. Maybe I missed the good stores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert x Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Kansai airport is the coolest airport on the planet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chepas_nigs Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I find it more expensive to buy in duty-free shops specially in Japan. Kansai Airport is an island relatively far from the camera stores in Osaka City's electronics/camera shop district. If ever you manage to go to Osaka Station - Yodobashi Camera is just right outside of the north exit. You can get good deals there also. がんばって！ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rene11664880918 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Hi! I live in Japan but I'm 6 hrs. away from Osaka. I can find out for you. Request my mail ad and give me a few days to find out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason_ware Posted November 22, 2006 Author Share Posted November 22, 2006 Thanks for you replies folks. I understand that if I get the right train from Kansai I can be at Osaka station reasonably quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chepas_nigs Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 It would be cheaper to take the bus to Osaka Station from the airport. The bus terminal is right under the train tracks of the Osaka Sta. facing Yodobashi camera. If you have more time, you can visit the electric city. Good luck!
