Walch Optics has relocated to 197 Harrington Street, opposite St Mary’s College near the corner of Patrick street. We are sharing the premises with Full Gamut, Master Printers. Our repair workshop has more space and we have a showroom for products we sell. Our opening hours will be 9:00am to 5:00pm Monday to Friday, and there is free parking available at the front of the premises for customers.

As we are a fairly diverse business this is a reminder of what we offer:

• Photographic equipment sales – We will no longer keep display stock but are happy to take orders for new equipment
• Second hand cameras and lenses – We will continue to buy your gear and sell a range of photographic equipment second hand, with several months’ warranty.
• Binoculars, spotting scopes, magnifiers and other optics – We will have a good range in our new showroom to test and compare.
• Microscopes and accessories – We are agents for Leica Microsystems and we also have a range of student / beginner microscopes which still have good image quality.
• Surveying equipment and construction measuring equipment – GPS, theodolites, laser and dumpy levels, laser distance meters, and more.
• Repairs – In our on site workshop we repair cameras, surveying equipment and medical equipment. We are factory approved for calibrations of most brand laser levels and other surveying equipment.
• Data recovery and image restoration, conversion of old home movie to digital etc.
• Insurance reports
• Film Processing: Colour and black & white all now done on site.
• The list goes on!
