Sapporo's equivalent of Samy's or BH?

[mikeshu]

So I'm here on the outskirts of Sapporo about a week away from a shoot, and just wanted to know if anybody has shopped for camera gear around here before. I have all that I need but there are a few creature comforts like additional brand-name LP-E6 canon batteries (totally hard to find in the U.S.) and assorted stuff that I want to be able to nab.

Any suggestions for those who have shot in this neck of the woods before?

Thanks!

Well I went to Yodobashi electronics store today... which is like the end-all store of everything that you plug into the wall... plus model hobbies and toys. Everything is suuuuper expensive here. Buying from the source isn't really a discount because of the tax system here I guess :-S. Best to go back to America to stock up on Japanese gear :-S
