Apparently since there is no crime in Japan, the police have nothing better to do than to be nice to people.
I stayed at this cafe i heard about through couchsurfing where about 5 or 6 travellers stay. We met for supper at the cafe at 6pm. Then at about 9pm, a girl from Norway was brought to the door by the police. Apparently she had been lost and couldn't find the place (it was tricky to find even during the day).
I told the people my camera plight and one of the travellers from Wales said he lost his mp3 player on the train and the police soon conducted a all-points-bulletin. He went to one information counter and all the stalls had little papers saying that said something like "if you've seen this man..."
So, i'm heading back to Kyoto today in hopes of finding my camera. Wheeeo...

Hey Marlon,
Sorry to hear about your camera. Nagasawa-san, our Japanese friend is here for lunch. He's from Kobe and also suggested that you try contacting the police in Kyoto, or if you lost it on the train to tell the attendants at the train station. He thinks there is a good chance you would get your camera back. Good luck!
Tim
