New York stores
-
Hi am heading to New York in 2 week’s, Any body know or recommend any good camera stores,
Well I suppose the obvious one would be B & H Photo on 420 Ninth Avenue
they seem to have everything a photographer could ever need!The best….B & H. Good prices and knowledgeable staff. Also the system they have there I have never seen anywhere else, quite interesting. Let me know what you thought.
Ah B&H….. dream sequence :) go in with a list though or you’ll be in there forever :) ….. Thats from experience ;)
Adorama isn’t THAT far away (42 West 18th St). Have not been there though; only to B&H.
There are many, many other interesting/specalist and secondhand shops there too, depends what gear you’re into.
Here’s a reference:

Another one for B&H, great shop, helpful staff and everything you would want gear wise!!
As Mark said not open Saturday, it is a Jewish owned company and my advice get there early, I would recommend being there when it opens as it gets very busy!!
Enjoy NY…great city and lots to photograph!!
Heading Stateside myself in September. already have the list ready for B&H. For me, its the only store. If you think this might be the one for you, and you have an idea of what you’re after, check out the life chat on their website. They are extremely helpful and insightful. They’ll give advise and options. Good to get before you enter into the store which, if you’re like me, will be a bit like a child in a sweet shop!! I use their live chat before I make most purchases. As all have said above, not opened on Saturdays or, indeed, any Jewish Holidays. So check none fall during your visit. Have a super time in NY.
Thank’s all, Head’n this Thurs, going to spend awhile up state New York close to the Connecticut border, an then to Pennsylvania for a few day’s, an the rest of the hol’s in long island, going to be alot of travelling, so i Guess it’s B&H in the city let’s just hope it’s not a Saturday that we go to the city, biggest thing in mind is a flash for my 60d an a few wee nick nack’s, depend’n on the budget, Thank’s again.
