I am in Vancouver/Burnaby and after 6 years so many things have changed. I want to know if anyone can suggest a store with DSLR goods: lenses, filters, bodies...etc would be. I started my photography in Japan so I know where to buy in Japan...just not Canada. Anyone?

There numerous camera stores, of course. Leo's is the best.

Leo's is pretty useless to him as a Nikon user.

I'm not in Vancouver anymore, Jason, so I'm afraid I don't know what's there now. Perhaps Broadway Camera?

I use Technicare here in Calgary for my printing, and they've been great. I know there's one in Burnaby, too.

And why would that be? Their Nikon stock is probably the biggest in town.
Lens and Shutter would be my second choice (chain).
Black's is another option and dedicated to Nikon.
Beau Photo isn't half bad either.
Then there's Kerrisdale Cameras in Burnaby.

The Pros go to Leo's.

Well if that's the case, they should show some of those Nikon products on their website. I found nothing under cameras, lenses, or lighting, not to mention the "Digital" page does not mention the brand anywhere.

I've never been there, so you would know better than me. But based on their website, why would a Nikon user get the impression to go there?

Agreed. It's not the grandest website. The store, however, is patronized by professional photographers from anywhere in the West, including from south of the border.

Good to know. Next time I'm out there, I'll check it out. Thanks for the info.
