I suppose it could be possible to contact Fuji directly since some folks do register their purchase with Fuji if they bought it from on on line source and enjoy guarantee rights

Another possibility is getting in touch with the local Greek police.

 

Obviously that would have been the first place where the owner of the camera would have gone. If he or she were tourists there is a high likelihood that they were insured with a travel insurance which normally also covers theft or losing things like these. The insurance claim procedure would have compelled the owner to go to the local police since you cannot claim the insurance coverage without a police report done where the item went missing.

 

I don’t know what made OP take the camera with him or her (to Japan?), maybe he was in a rush with his tourist tour and didn’t have the chance to go to the proper police station, but in Greece, the police, like anywhere else in the world, would have had a regular form to fill and the camera would have been placed in official custody and wouldn’t have been disappearing in the pockets of some clerk. If not claimed or the owner could not be found, then the finder would have got the item after some time and become the legal owner. At present,  being probably this reported as stolen for an insurance claim, OP might be in possession of stolen property without realizing that!

 

I don’t know why OP thought of not doing that and to go to a internet forum to find the owner ( despite what we might think of fora and ourselves, there is still a minority of the Fujifilm users who also frequent fora) but the likelihood of finding the rightful owner this way is certainly minimal.

 

Good Luck!

 

 

This is a link to useful numbers in Meteora, it includes the number of the closest jurisdictional tourist Police office in Kalabaka, which, of course, would have dealt with a report of someone losing the camera in Meteora.

here all the tourist police, the Kalabaka is at the end of the page.

    • Ahoy ye hearties! Hoist ye yon Jolly Roger and Cascade away. NGC 1502 The Jolly Roger Cluster:

      This is the equivalent of 43 minutes, 40 seconds of exposure. NGC 1502 is a neat little cluster located in the Camelopardalis Constellation. This region of space was thought to be fairly empty by early astronomers, but as you can see, there is a lot there. Kemble's Cascade (a.k.a. Kemble 1) is named for Father Lucian Kemble, a Canadian Franciscan friar who wrote about it to Walter Scott Houston, an author for the Sky And Telescope magazine. Houston named the asterism for Fr. Kemble and the name "stuck". NGC 1501 is the Oyster Nebula. A longer focal length telescope is needed to bring this one into good viewing range, but it is well worth the effort.

    • Looking for input; there are some decent deals and might want to take advantage to expand my lenses for my 100s already own: 110/2 32-64 35-70 100-200 + TC   Shooting mostly family shots, bringing my kit to capture family outings indoors and out. Tracking the 63/43 effective FLs on the two, but has anybody used both? Would the 55 (covered by two zooms right now) be redundant? Would the 80 be too similar in character to my 110 for portraiture?
    • See what I mean? Two instantaneous ads. Worthless.   
    • What's the deal Fuji X Forum? I'm noticing there are seldom replies to any topics - except for advertisements posted as replies. Really lame. Anyone else noticing the only reply they receive to a question is an advert?  🤠 fotomatt in Colorado
