I note on the shop=photo discussion page
Even though shop=camera redirects here, the description does not
actually include selling cameras (or similar electronic photographic
equipment). So do cameras belong into shop=electronics? Aceman444

So do cameras;
A) belong under shop=photo?
B) belong under shop=electronics?
C) or should they have there own shop?
I'm against B).
Either A) under shop=photo .. with major change to the wiki on
shop=photo!!! OR C) new shop=camera.

the wiki for shop=photo "A shop dealing with photos or video in any way."
humm .. does not necessarily sell cameras ... ?
and 'develop photos'? errr .. that is now a specialist activity given
the reduction in film cameras.
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:shop%3Dphoto
Where as a camera shop does sell cameras... but may not 'deal with
photos'
So someone has a redirect up on shop=camera... and the redirect says
'everything with photos'?
Would it not be better to call them what is most common?
I think there are now more "camera shops" than "Photo shops" .. take a
look in a phone book?
:-D Mine has a redirect to "Photographic Equipment" !! So what do
I know?
Maybe the wiki page for shop=photo needs to actually include
cameras?
"Photographic Equipment"?

I would say that fits very well with shop=photo, which can be found
further down the page under "art, music, hobbies", and to which the
link that you created now redirects (because someone in 2011 already
thought "shop=camera" would better be "shop=photo")

Hi,
I've added the tag shop=camera on a node .. reflecting ONE shop I have
mapped.
There are others that I can tag (when I get to them).
They sell cameras, video or still, tripods, memory cards, filters
etc etc.
Any idea for a better tag? .. just fishing for ideas at this stage!
I've placed it in the wiki shop 'electronics' section .. best fit.
