San Francisco Camera Shops?

Title pretty much says it. I'm spending two weeks in San Francisco and want to know where the decent shops are. Hopefully I will be able to pick up a nice wide angle lens way cheaper than here in the UK.

There's Calumet in the city and Keeble & Shuchat down the penninsula in Palo Alto, to name a couple.

Whatever you do, don't mention "wide angle" in the shops on Fisherman's Wharf. They'll try to sell you 0.5x screw-on filters.

Then again, they'll try that even if you don't talk about it

I'm getting the vibe that I should avoid camera shops in the fisherman's wharf area? lol
