Jim's Cameras 1313 Ne 43d SEATTLE, WA 98105 - 5802 (206) 547-1440
While not carrying new Pentax 35mm equipment, Glazer's just south of Lake Union may have some used Pentax stuff, and is generally the best place in Seattle to find a big selection of photo gear in general.
Glazer's Camera 430 8th Ave North Seattle, WA 98109 (206) 624-1100
Several blocks east of them is Optechs. Maybe has some Pentax stuff, but an interesting photo shop.
Optechs Camera Supply 433 Fairview N WA (206) 343-9900
Maybe the biggest carrier of Pentax new gear in the area that I new of was Kenmore Camera:

Dear all,
As my Washington State trip may be limited to wandering around Seattle, can anyone who knows the area recommend some good photographic stores to visit? Given the current advantageous exchange rate of the pound against the dollar I won't be able to resist the opportunity to part with some cash.
In particular, I'm looking for a decent wide-angle prime, maybe the 20/f2.8 or 24/f2. Or will the new 14/f2.8 be available by mid-June? The S4i is also very tempting...aargh!
Thanks,
Andy
