Asia Camera Museum (GPS: 5.417705, 100.329240) is a private museum dedicated to celebrating photographic equipment and photography. It is housed on the upper floor of 10 Burmah Road, the building which once house Kuan Lok Bakery in the Seventies. The group floor is occupied by Canon Image Square.
The Asia Camera Museum should appeal to camera buffs, people who are particularly into cameras, especially vintage cameras and the history of photography. There's a whole lot of old cameras to look at. For example, you can go through the different models of Canon SLRs from the pre-digital to the digital age. Then there's an array of medium format cameras and the entire set up of the Siow Seong Photo Studio, complete with dark room.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
