Originally posted by micromacro Next month I will be very close to the BH store, and I can find time to shop there. I wonder how many Pentax stuff they have in actual store compare to online? I mean cameras and accessories as well. Also, do they have used department stock there?
I've never been in big photo store before, and really want to see it!
It's certainly an interesting experience, as the store feels more like a showroom/playground than a retailer. All the camera stuff is upstairs, so you'll want to head there first. The used department has its own entrance right next to the main store. As for what's stocked where, the website should be able to tell you.
They have all current Pentax cameras and lenses on display in the store, but since they group everything by brand, Pentax probably doesn't get the exposure it should if things were grouped by category (i.e. beginner DSLRs, enthusiast DSLRs). That's just my opinion though. So someone who walks in wanting an entry-level DSLR probably goes to the Canon stand, then the Nikon stand, then chooses their preferred body and leaves.
