Here in North America, we're fortunate to have several camera and photography stores dedicated to keeping film shooters like us happy. However, today's guest recognised a need for such a store in the city of Porto, Portugal. Fourteen years ago, Pedro started a small shop dedicated to selling cameras, watches and other antique technologies. Calling it Máquinas de Outros Tempos or Machines Out of Another Time. Today, they sell cameras and film the hungry population of the city, and business is good. In addition to sales, they also handle film developing and scanning. Every camera sold is refurbished by an in-house technician. But that isn't all, there's also Cinemot. Cinemot started as selling respooled Kodak Vision3 motion picture film, complete with a custom-built remjet stripping machine, but today sells exclusive emulsions manufactured in the EU for Cinemot. More recently, they started reusing disposable cameras, loading up Cinemot films, putting their film into these cameras, branding them and giving them a second life away from the e-waste bin.
You can visit Máquinas de Outros Tempos in person at: Rua dos Mártires da Liberdade 154, 4050-359 Porto, Portugal
