Edit: As of July 2007 Castle Photo will be closed! Here is what you missed:…read more Castle Photo seems to be the only real camera shop in the Lansing area. It's quite small, and hard to find - in a strip mall in the Frandor area. The size of the store belies its purpose as a one-stop shop for the amateur photographer. Castle Photo stocks black and white chemistry, film of most sizes up to 5x7, paper, and of course cameras. They also have a consignment section, so if you want to buy or sell an older camera, Castle Photo will help you out. The staff is knowledgable and will advise you if, say, you don't quite know the right orange filter to buy. I've been pleasantly surprised with their answer to any question I come up with. Also, they process and print B/W negatives, and have a darkroom for rent where you can print anything up to a 6x6cm negative. So yeah, they're a great resource. Unfortunately they don't stock Polaroid films, something I love to shoot, so that brings the store down a small notch.

I had done a bit of research online ahead of time, but wanted to talk through it with someone and get a better sense of feel and how it works/looks in person. Ended up walking out with a used Sony Rx10 iii in excellent condition and associated accessories (bag, extra battery, SD card, card reader, lens protector) and technicalllly under the budget I had stated... :) So far so good! A couple days after this purchase, I ended up going back to upgrade the bag to a slightly larger one that could hold some additional items. Now technicallllly slightly over budget lol but I'm happy about my items so far and the customer service/help!

I had fun designing my own invites, Picture This got them printed for me and they look amazing. They were also so wonderful about providing me with information about what would be most cost effective for me. After printing invites I started asking about other things they could print for me (outside of photos - which I'd done long before the invites) and honestly, were able to help me out with printing anything and everything (giant posters, making stickers, programs, thank you notes)!!! AND they were able to do all of this at a lower price than what I was finding online, plus I'm supporting a small business in my town!!! I can't wait to see how everything comes out (because still working on that) but they have made this bride's life so much easier and cheaper. I dont think I will ever go anywhere else ... Raving about Picture This all around town. Thanks Team!

They were happy to share their knowledge and wisdom with us, and for me that's very important.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Daves Camera Repair, and I can confidently say it was…read morean outstanding experience. What truly sets Dave apart is his extensive expertise in the field. Having repaired cameras and lenses for NASA and Hasselblad, he possesses a rare and specialized skill set that few can match. It's clear that he has a deep understanding of the intricacies of camera mechanics, and he approaches each repair with meticulous attention to detail. Additionally, Dave has an impressive inventory of hard-to-find parts. This capability is invaluable, as it allows him to tackle repairs that many other technicians might find daunting due to the unavailability of components. His resourcefulness means that even older or rare models can be serviced with care and precision. In my case I had a bent focus shaft on my Mamiya RZ67 II. This is a common problem and these shafts are impossible to find. I called every Mamiya repair shop and no one had them. A bent focus shaft puts a lot of wear and tear on the gears. The camera came back super clean. He was able to bend the shaft back into shape, adjusted the bushings, and checked all the functions. The focus is much smoother now. He also packaged the camera very carefully. In a world where skilled camera repair professionals are becoming increasingly rare, Dave Easterwood stands out as a true master of his craft. If you're in need of camera repairs, I wholeheartedly recommend his services. You won't find a more knowledgeable or dedicated technician anywhere else.
