Got off the train at Penn station so wandered around the block to B&H. That place is farking amazing. If willy wonker was orthodox Jew and liked cameras instead of chocolate, this would be his factory. Thousands of items, hundreds of staff all connected by an amazing automatic delivery system. Just crazy walling about watching the action.

broke yet?

No I'm poor. I wanted a hitech nd grad filter but the guy couldn't understand me or find it Ana said it would be 14 days or some crap. I decided to go cheap for a play around and ended up with a cokin holder and ND8 grad instead to learn with for now

The Brooklyn bridge is really close to Grand Central , too bad he goes through Penn...

I was standing about 5 feet from that same spot on Friday morning Dave. I took my wife there for the first time (I needed something for a wedding shoot), and she said pretty much the same thing.

So when I make a trip to NYC, go there but leave the wallet at the hotel?

Definitely go there and look for the magical elves that make it all work. It's a little ofputting as you can't browse a lot though as it's behind the counter and you need to talk to a rep and know what u want.

but if you are in person to take it and try it out first, what's the biggie? My guess is that they inverted the 2 and 1. Hey guys, gotta honor your advertised price!
