Just wanted to drop a quick note to thank the folks at Arlington Camera for their patience and excellent service.
I went in to buy a lens yesterday. The level of professionalism, patience with customers, open and frank discussion, all in all a good hour plus spent checking out and shooting with the Nikon, Tamron's, and Sigma variants, I settled on the Nikon 24-70mm zoom. I tried out 5 different lenses on the demo SLR they had available. The sales person who helped me was extremely courteous and the two others who offered their input were about as professional as one can expect.
Arlington Camera was able to give me a good deal on the lens and I ended up buying a film camera from their used inventory as well.
This kind of service (and pricing) will keep me coming back to support the local stores rather than spending money at online retailers like
B&H or
Adorama.
Regards,
TY
