Default Test drive

Hey, just wondering, where could I test a candidate camera? Since Im finally in the market for a lower end DSLR, I would like to test out a few before dropping the five hundred some dollars.


- Thanks
Taylor

Depends on where you live. In my area, most of the smaller camera stores have gone belly up - they can't compete (or don't know HOW to compete) with the big mail order shops. I was in Bethesda, MD a few weeks ago on an assignment and found I needed an ultra wide lens. There was a Penn Camera next to my hotel... the rest is history! Just about every good sized town has at least ONE place where you can find what you need.
