Hi Don, Where have you attended camera shows/swapmeets in the USA? I'm in the Los Angeles area and have a couple of pretty good shows to go to. One in Buena Park and the other is in Pasadena. There are also from what I have heard anyway a good show in Santa Monica and one in San Diego, all in California.
