Try:
Samys on Fairfax
800-321-4726

They are hugh and I have never had a bad experience in dealing with them. They also usually have everything you need in stock.

Good luck.

Hello,

I'm French and will visit LA at the end of September. I want to buy the new Nikkor 24-120 f/4 there. Last year in NYC I visited B&H (which is a great shop), but where should I go in LA to find one unit of this lens ?
Many thanks for your help, Thomas

I'd expect it to be most likely available at Samy's, and there are several branches of Samy's. I'd also expect that prices will be very similar at any of the sources on a new product like this (and one that I think is likely to be popular from the start).

Besides Samy's, there are also several Calumet locations in California depending on your travels, they might not be out of the question, either. Santa Ana is in the greater Los Angeles area, to the southeast, about 1/3 rd of the way to San Diego, the San Diego/Escondido location is about 30 miles north of San Diego proper and near the San Diego Wild Animal Park.

Canoga Camera is also in the Los Angeles area, to the northwest of the main part of the city and they also may be a good possibility. I've done business with all three of these firms and might also suggest Bel Air Camera as well. These stores all have websites that can provide phone numbers, driving directions, etc.
