Tax Rebates May Go to Digital Cameras at 42nd Street Photo

New York (PRWEB) May 13, 2008

Surely, the closest Best Buy looks like a promising deposit for that tax rebate, however, one may want to consider their recent tax rebate as an investment in higher quality. Local electronics stores are often overlooked because they can rarely offer the discounts and savings of large scale electronics stores.

However, it is no secret that privately owned businesses are more personal and the staff, accordingly, tends to be more helpful in one's search for the perfect new gadget. In addition to these things, they insist on the highest quality products, those which will often outlive their price tag. Those who are in the market for a new digital camera may be shopping around their neighborhood or online but those in search of high quality photos need only look as far as 42nd Street Photo. Many may want to take advantage of this rare opportunity of having extra cash in their pockets to spend a little extra on the better bet that they might not have been able to afford before.

While New York City has contained within it's vast borders a large selection of digital camera stores, few can boast the history and reputation of 42nd Street Photo. In business for over 40 years, the shop has more than its fair share in experience and knowledge. It is also a good bet that the staff at 42 Photo are more knowledgeable of the products than the average Best Buy or Circuit City associate. In addition to the experience and quality, there will always be a relationship between private companies and their customers that cannot exist on a larger scale. This kind of bond is one that cannot be given a price tag.

Those who do not live in New York City have the advantage that anyone can by shopping online with the store's newly re-vamped website. They offer many products on their website, often have great deals and there has never been a better time than now to shop with them. The new Canon EOS-40D is their latest addition. With 10.1 Megapixel resolution, 28-135mm IS USM Lens and its sleek design, one can tell simply by looking at it that this digital camera will last for many years, lifetimes even. Some may not consider the life-span of a product and buy based on price but most people will tell you, in their experience, that an item like this is well worth the price.
