Flying through Dubai once again, I simply could not allow myself not to capture the prices of photographic equipment for my fellow photographers who are choosing a place to buy their stuff.
DUTY FREE at Dubai airport is simply huge, but I think the department for cameras and lenses could have been bigger. But the good news is that almost all the products a professional photographer needs are presented here.
Below is a series of photos where you can read the prices in both AED (local Dirhams) and USD. Some products have prices only in AED (1 USD = 3,673 AED).
My son and I walked through DUTY FREE. When the sellers saw a man with a stroller and a large camera on his neck, two or three people immediately started approaching to see what kind of miracle camera it was. When the eldest of them looked at my Canon 1Ds Mark III, he asked suspiciously: “Is this a Canon 1Ds Mark III?”, “Yes of course,” I answered.
He was delighted and called the entire department to see the top camera of the previous generation in person!
I can imagine what state 1 DX would have put them in!
If you have any questions, ask them directly in the comments, and I will try to answer them.
