If Pro Photo is the place I'm thinking of it's good. Kinda like Glazers, big, independent shop. Are you down here in the Portland area this weekend? I wanted to go take some photos but the weather was crappy so far.

I was in downtown Portland today, went to Camera World and Shutterbug. Camera World was the closest thing to Glazers in Seattle, but I went in for a few things and they were out of stock. Shutterbug was a couple blocks away, also downtown, and was more like a Kits Camera - smaller place but did have what I needed in stock. Go figure.

I know it's analog and won't be of much help, but Blue Moon Camera and Machine is a fantastic shop full of cool old gear. I love old cameras and I always stop by there if I'm in Portland.
Edit-whoa, just looked at the date of the last post. |

Pro photo supply at NW18th and NW Johnson Portland. Way better than camera world and shutterbug.

agreed
pro photo is by far the best store down in p-town. With the typical cool rental policy of half off after 3 pm (or something like that) on fridays...and you get to rent over the weekend for the price of one day.

I would agree that Pro Photo is a good store. Helpful and knowledgable staff (usually) and a great selection. I visit there when I'm in town, and have purchased a lot of my gear there.

Pro Photo Supply is awesome!! Great prices. Staff has great knowledge about everything. Once I did deal with a not so friendly staff member, but other then that, no complaints!
