Where to buy?

Maybe I should of put this up earlier? Let's face it, if we want a camera at a deceit price where should one go? Fortunately I live in New York the Mecca of photo, video and film production and only a train ride away from the best photo and video store in the world. no, they didn't pay me to say this but B&H Photo Video is by far the most resourceful place I've gone or sent anyone to purchase a camera.


This company was started and is run by hasidic jewish people so check their store hours before you head over. Another store similar to theirs is none another than Adorama on 17th street and what separates them from B&H is that they rent you merchandise. That's awesome because you may not be able to afford an expense lens or camera and if you rent on a Friday you can use it for the whole weekend. I have to warn you I'm sure when you first start your account you may have to put up the actual amount a product cost before borrowing it. Just like another favorite of mine K&M Camera and if you start an account with them as a student they keep you in their system so when you go back to rent that $1500 plus lens you can get it for at least $100 a day or for the entire weekend. I rent weekends!



Also guys keep in mind each of these places offer free user tips, either as a seminar where you can go and speak to a professional or a video you could watch online right now. I encourage you sign up to their monthly newsletters and stay in tune with the latest happenings. Cool stuff right?
