Anyone know of a good gear shops in the Portland area? Want to look at some Canon lenses and bodies

Nope, never been but Pro Photo has best reviews. Hope they're not fake is all, lol.

If Pro Photo is the place I'm thinking of it's good. Kinda like Glazers, big, independent shop. Are you down here in the Portland area this weekend? I wanted to go take some photos but the weather was crappy so far.

I'll be down there for the day today and thought I would check a few out if I have time

camera world in downtown.

I was in downtown Portland today, went to Camera World and Shutterbug. Camera World was the closest thing to Glazers in Seattle, but I went in for a few things and they were out of stock. Shutterbug was a couple blocks away, also downtown, and was more like a Kits Camera - smaller place but did have what I needed in stock. Go figure.

Damn you guys could have came out to the track where Tina and our son Justin where doing the track day. Just about 30 miles outside Portland, but nooooo

Camera World probably has the best selection in Portland

I know it's analog and won't be of much help, but Blue Moon Camera and Machine is a fantastic shop full of cool old gear. I love old cameras and I always stop by there if I'm in Portland.
Edit-whoa, just looked at the date of the last post.

Pro photo supply at NW18th and NW Johnson Portland. Way better than camera world and shutterbug.

pro photo is by far the best store down in p-town. With the typical cool rental policy of half off after 3 pm (or something like that) on fridays...and you get to rent over the weekend for the price of one day.
