idphotography Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 What is the best DSLR camera store in Washington State? Seattle or north of it. Best price? Best selection? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leicaglow Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 I haven't visited stores in Seattle for awhile, but good stores used to include Glasers and Optechs. One or both were pro shops with lots of inventory. Both are located in Seattle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthew_silberstein1 Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 My vote is for Kenmore Camera, just outside of the Seattle downtown area. Bob and his crew do their thing without attitutude. Decent inventory and great prices too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
images_in_light_north_west Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Glaziers or Kenmore, both over priced, I do deal with Kenmore with not bad results, but will save lots of money on line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idphotography Posted October 30, 2006 Author Share Posted October 30, 2006 Kenmore's price compare with B&H online? What about Rainier Camera (Dick's camera)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthew_silberstein1 Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 I have shopped everywhere in Seattle and find that Kenmore is super reasonable when it comes to prices. I believe in supporting the local merchant if they do their job well. Kenmore Camera is not perfect, but who is? Online should be of last resort-you take risks with online even from places like B&H. Ask for Bob, the owner, and you will be treated really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akajohndoe Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 You have them. B&H, Glazers, Kenmore, OpTechs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachel_sekely Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 i found the best camera shop just 2 blocks from my house. it is called pacific camera and it is beside the irish immigrant bar on university way. it isn't your typical retail store, but the guy who works there (owner?) is very helpful and has been in the photography business for years. i'm not sure how much he deals with digital cameras, but i have heard him discussing them with other customers. i, myself, was focusing on older manual cameras so i didn't really look around at the full stock. he does repairs too and did a wonderful job on my old pentax. i know this may not be so helpful in your case, but just wanted to throw my support out to the little guy.
