Since its inception,  the philosophy of MW Classic Cameras has been to provide the widest possible selection of quality classic equipment at competitive prices, backed up by the high quality of service that customers have come to expect.

MW Classic Cameras was launched in July 1998 by David Woodford and Mahendra Mohdi who, between them, bring 27 years combined experience of working internationally in the collecting business. Since 1987, the pair have been travelling extensively throughout Europe, determined to find the widest range of classic photographic equipment to offer customers all over the world. Their aim is to bring you the best choice and fastest turnover of interesting cameras, lenses and accessories – and, for the mail order customer, the most accurate and helpful description of each item. Grading equipment has always been a difficult and imperfect discipline, which is why MW Classic Cameras has opted for a percentage classification coupled with more detailed descriptions, all adding up to a clearer idea of condition.
