Hi Leon,

There is Pentax Forum (show room) in Shinjuku area.  The
nearest station is Shinjuku.  It's on the 1st floor of
Shinjuku Mitsui Bldg.

You can also find many camera shops in Shinjuku area, I
believe.  Well, I don't know much about Tokyo...

> Also what is Tokyo like for English speaking travelers?  I can manage a

You can count on English (alphabetical) signs everywhere. 
However, not many people speak English, and, I suppose, few
speak German...

Some Japanese words; "Kon'nichiwa" means hello, and
"Arigato (stress on "i")" means thank you.

Hope this helps.

Sincerely,
