Cameraworld.com was bought out by Ritz in the past few days, and the brick and mortar Camera World is up for sale or a sale is pending. For those that ever had the opportunity to visit the Camera World shop in Downtown Portland, Oregon it was a unique experience. Camera World used to bring the experts into their shops quite regularly and it was always an education to go down there and talk with the pros.

A few years ago, Camera World decided to become a dot com and the results are evident (They dumped the Olympus line when they went Internet savvy). It's too bad they lost their focus (which they had for over 25 years) and became quite greedy. Maybe a lesson for us all. My 0.02 USD
