DC Local Photo store?

[luismr]

Finally I'm upgrading my camera, 40D it will be.

The thing is, I'll be in DC next Monday and if I find a good deal probably I can jump up to the 50D; anyone knows about a decent local store?

Thanks in advance.

Where in DC will you be? I know of one store in Springfield and another in Burke. I have not seen any in the actual town on DC...

Photocraft in Burke is great. They also have a sister store in the area.

I love Photocraft - but they have one in DC...? Is it called Photocraft...?

I use Penn Cameras in Laurel and talk to Don (http://www.penncamera.com/) but noticed there is one on 18th St in DC.

I just came back from the store. They have recently combined the stores and are only at the Burke location now. The do list Embassy camera on their website, but I don't know the connection between the two.
