B&H Photo Emerges as a N.Y. Institution

Submitted by Matt, Mar 15, 2007 19:30

I've been living in Florida since 2002 - but before then, I visited and bought items from B&H since 1987. I just loved the superstore when it opened, and did so right up until I left NY. I made a return visit in 2004 to take pix at a friend's wedding - got some stuff there for the shoot. There's a severe lack of good photo shops in Florida that have everything under the sun at their disposal to purchase, view, and pay less for. Ritz is a poor substitute, and the small shops don't have the inventory. I walked into store, got the earful of sound, the sight of the gear, and my eyes practically welled up with tears as I said to myself: "I miss this place."
