What customers say
You'd think that such a small place on front street would be just a place for money grabbing wouldn't ya? Well, you'd be wrong in that. This place by far has the most knowledgeable folk about all things photography or otherwise. From the old style to the digital they got ya covered.
I made a call to the store and let them know I would be in the following week to sell some use equipment. When I arrived I was greeted with kindness and professionalism. The person in charge wasn’t there that day but they made a call and talked to him about giving a quote.
Staff is so incredibly helpful and kind! I shopped here a few years ago as a new photographer and they assisted me big time in choosing a couple lenses that would be perfect for me. Fast forward to now and they're still helping me grow as a photographer!
If you have any questions or are looking for solid recommendations for any and all camera equipment this is the place to go. It felt like you wanted to sit with an old friend and talk shop.
