Came to B&H to buy a new camera. This place is huge and packed to the rafters with all types of cameras, video, audio, computers, printers etc. it can be overwhelming. There are floor staff that can direct to the area that interest you. I was interested in a DSLR. I've had 35mm film cameras and have a small Nikon digital point & shoot. I took a friend with me who knows digital cameras. We went to the Nikon booth and the salesman Gerry was very helpful & knowledgeable. Discussed what camera might give me the type of functions I've known in a film camera and quality of picture. After much discussion and Gerry's recommendation I decided on the Nikon 5600. Its a lot of camera and I have a lot to learn. It came with 2 lens, 1 battery & 1 charger, 1 SD card and a camera strape. I also bought 2 UV filters, camera case, lens case, extra battery & SD card. This was my B'day gift to myself. Oh and it came with a program download sent to my email address. I think it does some kind of wireless transfer of you photos. And they had a credit card offer where they reimburse the taxed amount to you so you get an add'l discount. You have 30 days to decided if you happy with your purchase or return the camera for a full refund (so hold onto all the packaging just in case). They also have one-on-one teaching for your new camera. I'll be back there next week.
