Sooo looks like I'm the odd man out. But I won't go extreme and I won't go easy on this place either. Definitely not a 5 star experience but certainly worthy of 4.
I really liked this shop. Now that I finally made it in to see what they're all about I was impressed with their selection. Being closed on Sundays is a bit of a downside for me because it's one of the only days I can usually make it down this way. The selection was awesome and they had everything you could expect as a professional or hobbyist photographer and then some. They're the only place I've seen in the area with Ilford film for example.
There were at least 4 guys working here when I went in. Of them only ONE came and asked me if I needed help and was even nice about it. He was an older gentleman named George. He was extremely helpful and even insistent on helping me find what I was looking for to accessorize my old 35mm Pentax K1000. But when I went to check out and pick out some film on the other side it seemed like the only thing the other guys could even muster up was some kind of stupid inside joke amongst themselves. It's unfortunate that a place with such great potential has a majority inconsiderate staff.
In my interactions as a photographer and assistant working with other photographers I have found that many of them really are inconsiderate, pretentious and down-right pompous. It's one of the things that has really turned me off to being a photographer. I'll stick to being a hobbyist.
