One of the largest and best places to buy video production equipment is B&H Photo. B&H has long been a favorite among video professionals.  They sell home equipment too.   They carry all kinds of video equipment as well as still photo equipment.  Computers.  Accessories.  You name it they sell it.

I’ve worked in the video business for 30 years and whenever it was that I first became cognizant of video equipment retailers, B&H was the one.  It still is.

WHY IS B&H PHOTO SO POPULAR?

Two reasons.

1. They have everything.
2. Their prices beat most others.

B&H is HUGE.  They carry absolutely everything.  If B&H does not carry it, then it probably does not exist.  Their catalogue weighs about 10 pounds and could easily be mistaken for paperback version of War and Peace.

Their prices are great too.  Every TV station I ever worked for approached spending money like Scrooge.  B&H Photo made them smile.  OK, I can’t go that far.  B&H made them grumble less.

When I worked as a high school TV production teacher, they were even stingier.  I had to PROVE (in triplicate) that I was buying the least expensive equipment available.  I bought almost everything from B&H.  It was the easiest thing to do since they carry everything and that was the only way I could keep the paperwork manageable.

If I am in the mood to research video equipment, I immediately head over to the B&H Photo website.  Since they carry everything on the planet, it is an absolute wealth of information.  I can spend hours clicking through their website, drooling the entire time.  Hey-I’m a nerd that way!

So if you are in the mood to research or buy any video production equipment, check out B&H Photo.   It is a fun time guaranteed!  Right now, they are offering free shipping on Apple computer products.
