Agree with that - great place, staff very helpful.
Be weary of the smaller shops dotted about, I'm sure there are some genuine ones but in the main they are cons, with lines like 'you can't have that one, it's the display, come back after lunch and we'll have got a sealed one from the warehouse....'

Agreed. Watch out for the opening times though, they observe Jewish holidays.

Whatever you do don't get caught down in Brooklyn by the scam artists. B&H or 17th St Photo (www.17photo.com/default.asp) are the best being proper Nikon and Canon dealers. I wouldn't try anywhere else. They both have good second hand stocks too, all of which is top notch.
