Recommendation for a camera shop in Dallas? - 11-24-2011, 10:20 PM


I have a family member who is in the market for a camera like a Nikon 1. She needs to visit a good camera shop with knowledgable staff. Located in uptown Dallas. Any suggestions for a good shop?

Arlington Camera is a great store in that area.

Arlington Camera is your best bet... plus they support the local amateur and pro organizations, so we should give back when we can. :)

I like the staff at competitive camera a little better than at Arlington, but they are both great shops. Competitive is closer though.

One last vote for competitivecamera.com/. I almost always work with Eugene, the son. Take the time to get to know them and they will quickly become your friends. I noted on their web site that the Nikon 1 in both V and J version are in stock.
