Thanks for the link. I had a chance to visit B&H a couple of weeks ago. As soon as I got out of Penn Station, I started seeing B&H bags. What a great way to see and handle gear. This was my first stop in NYC. Second was he Empire State Building. B&H is amazing.

I'm hoping to make the pilgrimage myself this summer. It'll be my second time in NYC and what's compelling me to go? A camera store. lol

Ah...you did it backwards.

When I went to NYC last, I went to the Empire State Building and got a gift certificate for B&H when I bought the tickets to the obs deck.

Got a cool green tote bag from them when I picked up a lens for my Canon. :)

I just got back from NY and bought some stuff at B&H, xl-2 and a wireless mic. I love that place. The sales guys are very helpful. Plus you get to play with everything before you buy it. I wish they had a chain of them around the country. I too got the empire state building coupon, unfortunately it was saturday and they were closed, so I never got to use it.

I don't know if there needs to be a chain, but having three in the United States would be nice. Besides NY maybe somewhere in the middle and California.
I've walked by the store twice but they have been closed both times.
