I would say B&H as a top choice but they are Jewish as well.

Arg. Yeah they're also closed. Goddamn it.
I can pay 1400EU for a lens, or 1400USD... ouch.

What you looking to pick up? I just picked up a nikkor 17-55 f/2.8, but took the fnac route (fingers still burning!). A bit stiff on zoom, but otherwise a fantastic fast lens

Canon 17-40 F4 L (my current one is fucked)
Canon 70-2000 F4 L (my friend took his one back home..)

The price difference between EU and USD actually is worth the flight over ;)

70-2000?! That's worth a flight to the moon.

If you've never been to B&H adjust your trip to make it there when they are open. You'll be happy you did.

Woops, 70-200 ;)
I'm more of an adorama person. The prices between B&H, Adorama and 17th street photo supply are all the same, but the latter is open.. I guess they get my $ :D
