I disagree entirely. The salesperson is paid to stand there all day anyway. The OP might choose not to buy the camera in that store, but return (if they receive good service/helpful advice) for future purchases of, say, accessories on which the savings aren't so significant as to warrant buying online. I bought my last camera online, but went back to the local shop for a bag and a tripod, even though I could have saved a few euro somewhere like Amazon.co.uk.
If handling/trying out goods in a retail shop were considered a waste of the salesperson's time, most shops would go out of business. Handing over €300 or €400 for a camera you haven't held in your hands is asking for disappointment later.
No, I suggested the OP rely on his own research, but ask to handle the camera in a store before deciding which model to choose, as "feel" is an important factor in choosing between otherwise quite similar models.you want advice and first hand experience...
