In addition to the gorgeous cameras occupying the sleek shelves of the depository, the pinned pictures and photographs explain the procedure behind film photography, developing pictures from reels, and the like. Besides, it also has an elaborate display of ancient antiques including earliest flash equipment, vintage photographic films, enlargers, light meters etc. The depository is the only one of its kind all around and is a must visit place for photography enthusiasts- both professional and amateur.
