SavageduckThe owners are the direct descendants of Jews who were trained in optics by Ernst Leitz, in order to save their lives. There is a lot more to the story than the link shows.

Strange! There is no mention of a branch of B&H outside of NYC on their web site.Perhaps a local Orlando, FL. resident could provide some more information on this "very tiny" branch of B&H in Orlando. You say they are located at "The Loop" in Orlando. However, the loop doesn't seem to have B&H Photo Video listed as a tenant. < http://www.attheloop.com/kissimmee-orlando/store-directory.php >Sandman
Right, it was across the street, not actually in the loop.Savageduck
That is Best Buy, not B&H Photo Video. They are not the same. B&H only exists in NYC.
Yeah, dumb error on my part, my mistake.
OK! Take a deep breath, slap the side of your head, grab one of your preferred beverages, sit down and relax.
...and one of these days consider a visit the B&H Photo Video in NYC, or at least their online presence. The closest retail equivalent, also only located in NYC is Adorama. You will note that B&H is owned and operated by an observant Orthodox Jewish family which hold to tradition. < http://www.bhphotovideo.com > < http://adorama.com >
Best Buy could only wish they had the photographic inventory and business of these two stores.
