    Thanks for the glowing review, Keith! However, if you ever have a problem with an order from Adorama Camera - or AdoramaPix - I hpe you would contact me directly.

    Wow! She's everywhere! (I mean that in a nice way.) I've seen her address comments on Amazon, resellerratings.com, and other places.


    I'll add my praises for Adorama. I get a lot of stuff through eBay (mostly used) but, when I buy new gear, it's always from B&amp;H or Adorama, if possible, depending upon the prices, shipping, etc. Some things are available only from one or the other. (Adorama has Think Tank gear, for example, while B&amp;H has Wimberley lens plates, etc.) I, too, have Amazon Prime (free 2nd day shipping on many items bought direct from Amazon), but that seldom makes much difference. One thing that I've noticed is that Adorama charges shipping on items sold through Amazon that, if bought directly from Adorama, for the same price, have free shipping. That probably helps make up for the commission that Amazon charges. (I've even bought something from Adorama via eBay--it was used.)


    One thing I found out: if you use the links from this site to Adorama, B&amp;H, or Amazon, Bryan gets credit/commissions on essentially anything you buy on that session. I use the Wish Lists to make a collection of what I want, then leave Adorama/B&amp;H, come to the-digital-picture, use the link to go to the merchant, and fill up my cart.

    Helen is Adorama's "Ambassador of Quan"

    or completion. It's a loosely defined quality, combining or uniting
    skill with love and respect, as well as money."

    Not recently, but I've certainly seen it more than once...that was one of my favorite parts of that movie.
