  I have only positive things to say about my experiences with B&H. I've bought several cameras and lots of gear from them and have never had a problem.

Search the Q&A on this site for B&H or B+H or bhphotovideo.com and you will find that lots of photographers recommend them highly.

  Erin, B&H has outstanding reviews, and for good reason. Check BizRate or the other survey sites to see - but I can tell you from personal experience; upwards of $10,000 worth of gear purchased over 5 years and 20-ish orders (from big stuff to little) that they are consistantly outstanding.

  Erin, if you want to see how good they really are, you can see reviews for B&H at http://photo.net under the "neighbor to neighbor", photo dealer review section. I can't remember how many years I've been purchasing nearly all my supplies, film, chemistry, paper, and miscellaneous new items from B&H. Like Chris, I highly recommend them.

And for used camera gear, I highly recommend KEH.com.
Take it light.

  Erin:
I've been purchasing from B&H since 1988. I always recommend them when I am asked for an online dealer. Shipment is prompt and any problems are handled quickly.

I agree with Mark about KEH. Even their bargin level equipment is good.

  Hi Erin,
I've shopped at B&H for several years and hate to go anywhere else for camera gear. They have a huge selection, great prices and good customer service. My only complaint would be if you're at the store (I use to work a block from the store in NYC) they aren't "overly" helpful in answering your questions. When you go in knowing what you want it's a very smooth transaction.

  I have had very good luck shopping at B&H Photo. Never had a single problem with them.

  I have ordered a few things from them and have always had a great experience with the company. Just recently I ordered a camcorder for my husband for Christmas and it was supposed to come with a free extra battery but it wasn't in the package. It was absolutely no problem to have them send it and I think they even upgraded it. To me, customer service is HUGE.
