#2月好去地方2025
The Asia Camera Museum can be said to be a photography treasure house that integrates academics, art, history and information. For the photography community, it has the mission of inheriting history. For Penang, it records the trajectory of time.
The Asia Camera Museum in Penang is not big, but in this small museum, there are thousands of never-before-seen cameras and photographic accessories, some of which are over a hundred years old.
The founder will share his photography insights, academic experience, historical anecdotes, professional knowledge, and antique camera collections that he has accumulated over the years to open everyone's eyes. There are about a dozen old cameras here (single-lens, dual-lens, panoramic, super telephoto, etc.) for you to play with and take pictures. It also demonstrates the photo editing techniques that had to be done on film or photos in the early days when Photoshop did not exist, as well as the restoration of the dark room.
