Accessory shopping in LA

[Longshot]

Hi there everyone! Long time no post. Been very busy.

My family and I will be going to LA tomorrow for a week's worth of vacation. So, I've held on all this time from buying my lenses and flash in Toronto since I've heard from quite a few people that I'd save quite a bit if I bought State-side.

Would you guys please recommend some reliable and reasonably priced stores I can visit with very good reputation that I can check out and purchase lenses and flashes.

Greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Well, 7 days in LA and got my first lens for my XT! Yay...happiness! :D

I got myself the Canon EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM and found it $100 cheaper than getting it from Canada. I was hoping to get a flash there as well but the diff was only $11 so pointless to get it in LA.

I really like the lens. Very very nice. Then again...I only have the kit lens to compare it to. :p
