was looking for a basic tripod and took a short trip to this store I've read some positive reviews…read moreon. as I got in, the nice two gentlemen offered their help, showing me what i was looking for and stuff that was a bit more expensive but they thought would worth the expense. these guys are professionals, they give honest and reliable service and as a matter of fact, I ended up staying in the store for about 20 minutes after i finished my purchase because i enjoyed our conversations. a wonderland for every camera-man- very keen service, loads and loads of gear of all kinds and even more knowledge to share. super!!

Great range of product. Miserable staff (but actually quite…read morecharming). Hardcore sales tactics "You are wrong, we are right. Seriously, forget what your professional photographer friend said about Canon, it's the Practika you need". Let you get hands-on with stuff, so you can see it working - which is a huge bonus. But, after all that, then you have the pricing. Good web sites beat John Lewis by around 30%. John Lewis beats most high street stores by around 10% - and often give a better warranty. Other high street stores are probably 10-20% cheaper than Spectrum. When you add it all up, the real cost of buying here is phenominal.

Who would have thought that one day it would become a novelty to have photographs developed …read more.. Every now and again a social media share just won't do the trick and a paper copy of your favourite selfie is required - in my case, when parental birthdays are looming. Snappy Snaps is one of the last truly useful shops left on Portobello Road and they print your photos while you wait. Staff are superfriendly and know what they are talking about. They also stock films for die-hard analogue photographers and offer all sorts of gift ideas.

Located virtually next door to the Savoy Hotel, is the London Camera Exchange in the Strand;…read morethis shop branch is just part of a nation-wide franchise, under the LCE Group and they have other branches up and down the UK, trading under the same name. The only thing, I like from this shop is the Think Tank camera bags. But I have strongly dislike the customer service from these people. You'd be better off shopping at Richard Caplan (Pall Mall), Classic Camera (Bloomsbury) Aperture Photographic (Fitzrovia), Calumet (Euston & Soho) and/or Fixation (Vauxhall)

Went here while on vacation, and I was very pleased. Robin gave an excellent consultation and I…read moreleft happy with a new piece of equipment. Yes, it cost more than ordering online or purchasing in the US, but I would have missed all those extra shots without my new 18-270 Tamron. :) Well worth it. Go check them out! Look at their used filters/lenses/etc because they have lots of stuff to choose from.

Photo development with a little sharing of life dreams added in there…read more Really nice salesperson helped me fill out my film developing envelope, let me know that getting a cd of the pictures would cost more later, and then ended the transaction with telling me her life dream is to go see Celine Dion in concert in Las Vegas (after discovering where Im from). A 35mm roll of color film plus cd was about 9 pounds. I might skip the cd next time and just scan the ones I want to post online later. But great experience there. I was there ages ago for passport photos. Easy peasy process that time too.

I went to get some passport photos for my kids from here as it's only place which does them…read morelocally. I managed to get my photos and they were provided in minutes which is good but I just wanted to raise a couple of issues. Firstly, I had to pay for 6 photos per person as this is the minimum number they provide. I only need 1 photo for my kids' passports and I dont need an additional 5 photos as they don't have any other forms of I.D. Normally the minimum number of photos is 4. Therefore there is a lack of flexibility and it's just an excuse to charge more in my mind. The second issue was the smell inside the shop. It wasn't pleasant and I couldn't wait to leave.

I live very close to Willesden Green Station and I use frequently this shop to print my photos and…read moresometimes create (using their help) a nice photo-gift. Their customer service is very friendly and they are always happy to see me and generally all the customers entering their shop. They have a range of photo services including ID & Passport photos. The last time I needed photos for my passport and just a couple of minutes after they had them ready. And the price they charged me for these photos was really good!!! If I was going to have them in the photo-shop next to my embassy they would have asked me the double price.
