Lonely Planet review for B&H Photo-Video

Visiting the city’s most popular camera shop can be an experience in itself – it’s massive and crowded, and bustling with black-clad (and quite knowledgeable) Hasidic Jewish salesmen bused in from communities in distant Brooklyn neighborhoods. Select an item and it gets whisked away from you and dropped into a bucket, which then moves up and across the ceiling to the purchase area (which requires a second queue). It’s all very orderly and fascinating, and the selection of cameras, camcorders, computers and many other electronics is outstanding.

    Top photo store

    remelila recommends this,

    This is a top NYC photo store, where real photographers go for equipment. (Remember, never buy anything from the electronic stores in and around Times Square.)
