I bought two pro DSLR cameras and a bunch of accessories from these guys. They know cameras, they understand your needs. Don't be shy to ask for a discount. They won't be able to give you a big one for cameras (since profit margins on cameras are pretty small), but you can get a nice one for accessories.

Decent camera store located at very convenient location.
Staffs are great, much better than Aden and Vistek, but short of Henrys from what I experienced so far.

For great service, advices and deals, this is your 1 stop location. George, Harry, Stan and the other staff are the best people you can get to help you out finding the appropriate gear for your needs. And George is probably the best guy in town to take passport photos: they were absolutely awesome! The best photos I've ever had taken for my passport and he makes sure that it meets all the... more
