What customers say
I had an amazing experience with this store. I rocked up, of expecting to buy a lens, but to see what they had. The employee let me try out a couple of lenses on a body in store and then on our own camera body. After testing out a couple and deciding on one, we went off to drive south on our road trip.
Phenomenal customer service. I went in looking for an old PC flash cable, but they were fresh out. The staff were so helpful, they even went through some yet-to-be sorted cables that had just come in to see if they had another one in back.
I had a camera rewind my film early, then stop working when I messed with the battery. Staff member at the desk helped me get it running again (I just had the battery in incorrectly!) and also did a quick clean of the inside for me, to try to combat that issue in the future.
I was looking for a very specific battery charger and fortunately they got it in stock. Prices are similar (if not the same) to price you find online, which is good. Looks like accessories for older DSLR may be hard to come by. They were very kind and prompt. Will definitely go back if I need last minute items.
