Completely happy with the whole experience from start to finish. Website was clearly laid out and easy to use, communication from the company once my order had been placed was excellent and regular, exactly as they had promised and the whole thing was well within the time frame that they specified for the order. When the camera arrived, the instructions were clear, easy to follow and very detailed. Can't recommend 42nd street photo highly enough.
Don't believe any positive reviews you see. They are all "planted" by 42 St Photo. They will rip you off! I ordered a Canon R6, one of their sales people called and told me the camera is an import and everything is written in a different language, which is totally false. Then they try to sell you a USA model for much more, which they don't have because they are not an authorized dealer!. Call Canon and they will tell you that they are not! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Excellent customer service, I purchased a Canon ef 300mm lens that matches all my needs. The service was first-class, next day delivery was added because I wanted the lens ASAP. Best price on the internet for the product, ordered Saturday and arrived on Monday. Well packaged, factory smell and neat service. I can't think of anything negative about the experience other than when will the next stock be in?

This is the first time I have bought from 42Photo, but certainly won't be the last. Not only was the price cheapest in the segment plus Free Delivery (Amazon were charging $30more...) and communication throughout was top drawer-I was kept informed what stage the order was at. FedEx and DHL are the right combination for quality delivery so good choice made by 42Photo. Ordered Monday and the Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DG DN Art lens arrived within 3 days. Really happy customer thank you

BEWARE - ordered online a Nikon 55-300 lense. Was given story that the one I ordered wasn't compatible with my d3200 and he had only one in stock that would work - $180 more than the other. Arrived in a non- Nikon box with no receipt and no product warranty or spec book. DO NOT USE
I just bought a three piece JVC HM250 camcorder with everything but the kitchen sink! Package came in around 17 days. 42 St Photo surprised me in providing both superb service and competitive prices. Great service with 42Photo. 100% merchantable quality and authenticity. They are helpful, quick delivery and a great warranty.

Everyone I interacted with was super-helpful, patient and light-hearted to my novice questions after getting rid of my SLR. They didn't push any items on me, I was given comprehensive pre-order advice and packing with extra foam that my contents could survive a Gaza missile strike! Highly recommend for photographic equipment and optical accessories.

This was my first time ordering from 42nd street photo, but it won't be my last. I received updates at every stage of the process, from ordering to delivery, which was extremely useful. The Canon RF 24-105mm f/4 lens itself is excellent quality, set up was totally straightforward, and the customer service has been faultless. Thank you!

The next day, they called and said that was the international version of camera (no such info on the website). They also said that if I refuse the order, they will keep 6% of the order amount. I refused the order, but the money was returned in full.
📸 Friendly, courteous and proficient service...
Bought a Z6II in pristine condition at a great price during 42 St Photo sale.
I'll definitely use 42 St Photo again for other camera purchases. Highly recommend way of expanding your Camera/lenses collection. Thanks to John in New York!
I wanted a BMPCC6K kit and was referred via a link from the manufacturer to 42photo.com. I found that they have clear and honest descriptions with illustrations of all equipment with complete product information. Excellent customer service and securely packaged next day delivery are a game changer for me. 42Photo will be my first port of call when researching video equipment.
These folks went out of their way to help me find the correct Zhiyun gimbal stabilizer to work with my camera. I highly recommend 42nd street photo to anyone and will definitely be doing more business with them in the future! Easily one of the best online purchasing experiences I've had. Thanks again.

On their website they have great prices. Once you place a order they send a email stating they need to talk to you regarding your order.My camera price was around $1500, great deal. They called and said, that is the "International Version" with no warranty. My price shot up $500 more. I sent a email and inquired about a SD card, not to place a order but only ask. Apparently they store your credit card information WITHOUT your consent and in checking my bank account they charged me $200 for a SD card without my permission. Although they have a great selection, ship fast, be aware of how they do business.

The delivery was extremely quick after talking to the team at 42nd street photo. They directed me to a camera that would match my need to capture youth sports such as soccer and basketball. I have been using the Canon 90D camera for several weeks now and the quality of the pictures and ease of use is fantastic. Thanks so much 42 street photo for pointing me in the right direction

Fantastic as always with the Leica's premium quality DNA! It's a fantastic all-purpose and is quickly winning over my heart as a go-to lens as was recommended by the store owner at 42PHOTOs. I also spoke to a customer representative through a LIVE CHAT, I got a shoulder strap and a lens bag, which is A++++++++
Highly recommended for Leica!

Well packaged, prompt delivery of a superb canera-FujiXT4. I'm not sure how competitively priced it was as 42PHOTO-was the only place I could find one just at that time, but the price seemed about right. All good from 42PHOTO-I thought.
