Where to buy GG Loupe in Atlanta Area?

[Andre Noble]

Hello, I am travelling and left my grounnd glass loupe in L.A. L.A. shops didn't have one either.

Is there a LF store in Atlanta/Columbus area where I can buy one?

[Vick Vickery]

KEH is in Atlanta (2310 Marietta Blvd...464-892-6905)...seems like they have almost everything!

[Ted Harris]

Quality Camera ..... a solid large format supplier and KEH of course

[Andre Noble]

Is KEH a walk-in type store? I leave Atlanta Monday afternoon for Canada.

I don't think KEH is a walk-in store, at least they didn't used to be. They used to have something on their web site or in their ads saying not to try to go there to buy equipment.

I hear tell you can put in an order and the go to the store and pick up the order. Call them.

I'd go to any drugstore and pick up a magnifying glass -- almost better than a loupe since you can angle it in the corners when using wides. I've been using one for years and secretly felt a little heathenish about it, but no more after reading that Soth sometimes uses a magnifying glass instead of a loupe too.

The alternative to a magnifying glass in a drug store is the reading magnifying glasses in frames with upgrade increments of .25 magnification up to 4X. You can't do the angle at the corners but you are hands free for focusing. Pick your priority.

On the other hand for a loupe here is Quality Camera Co.’s contact info, Jeff Wheeler, 382 Trabert Ave. Atlanta, GA 30309 tel: 404-881-8700. If he can't supply you, he probably has local knowledge. A hobby store or jeweler’s supply could also assist. Have a great trip.

I had a pair of +4 diopter glasses made at my Eye Doctor's office for about $40. I never use a focusing loupe now, well almost never!
