WANG CHEN Photography Museum, hidden downtown in Tian An Cyber Park, Futian District, accommodates a variety of Wang’s collection of iconic equipment, including cameras and film projectors.

These collections endured the long course of history and witnessed the development of videos.

Currently the museum exhibits thousands of pieces of photography equipment.

From June 5 to August 1, the museum has an exhibition of spy cameras, with a total of 21 different cameras being displayed to the public. They were modified to resemble things like pens, cigarette packs and pocket watches, and once served as tiny and secret weapons to collect photos and information.

Wang Chen now works as the deputy chairman of China Photographers Association and chairman of the Entrepreneur Photographer Association (Shenzhen). (Chen Siqi)
