For those that have never visited the store in NY - it's the single biggest photo store I've ever been in - simply amazing.

Huge range of demo stock, very knowledgable staff, great prices.

Closed on Saturdays, but open on Sundays - Jewish owned business, so on key Jewish holidays the store will also be closed.

One of the few reputable discount stores in NY.

Here's a shot I took on my first visit - note the stock coming overhead in bins to the checkout!!

If you're ever in NY - go and visit, but leave your credit card in the hotel safe or it may be expensive

I've taken delivery of a friend's Nikon 400mm lens before now from B&H - and then UPS'd it to him in Blighty...

Saved him a fortune - shipping from B&H to me was cheap - UPS to Blighty was more, but still left him with a significant saving over buying in the UK.

I have also had mates fly in from the UK on business or vacation to NY - and plan to buy kit whilest there.

Their savings paid for the flights....
