Originally posted by mikemike Thats cool, will have to go check that place out when I go to houston this labor day. I can dump the wife at the galleria and go there since it looks like it is a few blocks away.
P.S. It would be cool if there were a section of the site to post local camera shops that carry or specialize in pentax gear
It's a nice store and you can spend an hour or so there, but don't expect a lot of Pentax gear. Before they stopped carrying them, they just had a small section. I asked the manager and he was pretty honest. He said he liked the Pentax stuff, but it was just much safer from a business standpoint to push the big two. He mentioned how he was burned pushing Minolta in the past, so I can see his point of view.
Still, it's a nice independent store. Another one is Houston Camera Coop, but they're several miles away, and they've never carried Pentax that I've seen.
