AmCam is one of the older distributors of photographic goods in the USA. Prinz is one of their many brand names. They sell only to camera dealers, not direct to consumers, and only in case quantities on most items. When I had a camera store I used to buy odds and ends from them, and when I was running an import/distribution business I sold to them.

They sell everything from point and shoot cameras to picture frames. They even used to sell a wooden view camera made in India. What name did they put on it? Why they called it Prinzdorf!! No lie.

Anyhow, they are at 601 Academy Drive, Northbrook, IL 60062. Their 800 number says "For dealers only", but maybe if you call it they can point you toward a nearby dealer. 800-323-8360.

They were marketed by Satter, the people who handled Omega enlargers. The site is http://www.satter.com/ but it's lame.
