Situated in the heart of Herberton - the historic tin mining town,
an area which offers abundant wildlife and impressive waterfalls.

Cameras have been an important part of our known
history. Housing this fabulous collection is one of Herberton's
oldest historical buildings - the Jack & Newell General Merchants
building built in 1880. This represents the starting point for the
development of North Queensland.

by ex Intelligence Operative Roy Jacques and his own personal spy
cameras are still on display.

police pocket watch camera 1904, KGB Russian spy cameras, Hitler
German cameras and Leica Gold cameras. Come and see the Nikon million

artist. The Museum also houses a massive library featuring many
famous camera and photographic books.
