Just got my Sony a7R V from 42nd street photo, and I couldn't be more pleased. I got the camera for $100 dollars less than the lowest price of the competitors online. I was a skeptical buying from a company I didn't know too much about, but they exceeded my expectations. I called their customer service for a shipping date, got through within a minute and they got it to me exactly when they said they would with free shipping. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a great price and great services.
I shoot in very dusty environments and try not to have to swap lenses mid-shooting. Jonathan was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful helping me pick a new camera and lens. I love the Sony a7iii with a new EF 70-200mm f2.8. The camera is simply superlative. I love every single aspect of it. Good for video and photo, it's the best price/quality in the market right now. The kit was amazing because I got an amazing bag and memory card for free. Great choice, good products.
First-class service. I bought a 70-300mm XF lens over the phone Saturday morning, Jonathan H. Had it packed and ready for immediate pick up and had it delivered to St. Louis. I received it the next day. I live in Missouri but I buy all my camera equipment from 42Photo. The knowledge and friendship of Jonathan cannot be beaten!
I was have a hard time deciding on this camera. But after talking to the folks at 42nd street photo they helped me make the right decision. Ordering was a breeze! Great service, quick delivery, and the guy even called when I placed my order to make sure I was ordering the right camera for my purpose. I'm glad I purchased it and will continue to purchase from 42nd street photo again
At half the price of the G-Master series lenses, this lens is a great value-sharp as a prime lens. Bought it secondhand from 42PHOTO. Described as excellent and boxed,it arrived a couple of days later, well packed and as illustrated. I'm a big fan and will buy lenses from 42PHOTO in the future!
Sony A7RIVA ordered. I was fully aware it was a grey market camera with no warranty.Matthew called to tell me it was cheap because it was in Chinese and had no wifi.Grey market is supposed to be the same as USA camera without the warranty,the only difference. I also paid to overnight the camera and he said UPS doesnt deliver on friday or the weekends,lol. I said cancel it then and he said he already had never charged my card.He hung up on me. Then tried to call back.I am really sick of unethical businesses.I have been a photographer for 50 years.I know the scams.I will no use 42nd,it used to be a good store, and I suggest anyone using them be very aware they are lying.
The Sigma 50mm F1.4 Art DG HSM lens was dispatched amazingly quickly on the order day (Thursday) and could have been delivered by the next Tuesday had I not changed delivery to Friday, and it was delivered on time. Since this lens was sent from New York to Oregon, the shipping time was excellent. The lens was well-packed and in new condition. It's working perfectly. Thank you!
Excellent in all respects: quality of the site, convenience, competence, accuracy in shipments and care of its customers. 42nd St PHOTO is the best reseller in North America. I buy equipment for my small media firm all over the world but I often go back to buying even small parts from 42nd St. PHOTO thanks to the convenience of its pricing and the overall service quality. Excellent in all respects: quality of the site, convenience, competence, accuracy in shipments and care of its customers.
I am a Red owner and I'm in Wilmington, my only regret is I cannot capitalize on the benefits of 42nd St. PHOTO service for RED products due to manufacturer's supply policies.
I always follow Silvio on YouTube, his insights are a new pair of eyes and the quality of his demo is always top-notch!
The camera search tool of the website is handy, seamless and very useful!
So, thanks 42nd St. PHOTO.
I am an experienced photographer who needed an additional camera. I decided to buy the Canon 90d because of the price and it was lighter than my other DSLRs. 42nd street photo had a great set of refurbished cameras and this was one of them. I am very happy with the quality, even though it was refurbished it came with everything I needed. I am very satisfied with the service and how quickly my camera came after I ordered it.
I am a professional sports photographer for universities, high schools, national sports academy websites and a life-long Pentax user. All Pentaxes have been purchased from 42photo, you can't go wrong with 42photo. They recognized our tax exemption status unlike other companies in New York.
The newly-purchased K-3 Mark III excels in low-light performance, sharpness/detail resolving/visual clarity, and wider FOV versus crop-factor. Exceeds Expectations for Sports Photography! I highly recommend Pentax and I am thrilled with the K-3 Mark III!
I have spent a lot of money over 10 years with 42photo and never have they dropped the ball once. I love it. It ships fast and comes with so many accessories. You can't beat this deal, especially when shipping it to PA is tax free!
Great service, advice, prices and ease of understanding their website and ordering details. Also, quick and hassle-free returns. In the last month I have purchased the Nikon Z6 2, several Chiaro filters, the z24-120mm S lens, the 24-200mm f4-63 lens and this 14-30mm S lens. Several items are new and several are used with a 9+ rating. I also traded in 6 different cameras and lenses. In each transaction the 42nd Street PHOTO's service was outstanding. I always buy from them and have never been disappointed. Finally, the Nikon Z series lenses and Z 6 2 camera are much better, in every way, then my previous Nikon equipment. Thanks Nikon and 42nd Street PHOTO.
Best customer service ever. I had a virtual visit to see the tripod and it was fantastic experience, I got to see my model camera and lens on the tripod. It actually was the Nikon Z7 with the lens on the Gitzo GT2542 Mountaineer Series 2 Carbon Fiber Tripod with GHF3W 3-Way Fluid Head Kit. I was impressed with the size of the Fluid Head kit and was also shown how it work. Excellent service once again and a awesome deal.
I've owned Manfrotto products for years and have been very satisfied with them. I ordered a Manfrotto Aluminum 058b tripod and was extremely surprised and pleased with the quick response and fast delivery of the products. Also, very happy with the free shipping! The tripods were exactly what I needed. I would recommend 42photo to anyone shopping for photo/video/audio products!
We went to 42photo and bought PTZOptics 30x, we are using it in a worship livestream setting. Our pastor who is old says it's easy to set up and configure. The 30X zoom is perfect for the distance and works impressively in low light. The salesman recommended these for our contemporary service. We couldn't be happier about the performance of this PTZ camera. 42photo is a local store and a win-win for our church. Spent $2000 and this was a game-changing tool, and I'm completely satisfied with our choice.
Excellent service, purchased a secondhand 12-100 Olympus lens from 42nd Street Photo, arrived well packaged and exactly as described, this is the third lens that I've bought from them and it's the only I would buy second hand gear from un-inspected, I know if an item is not exactly as I want I can return it and their service is always very prompt and polite.
Can't recommend too highly.
The camera is a game changer for wildlife photography, fast autofocus performance and shooting speed for fast moving deer. 42photo's online service responded to my questions. I bought this camera six months ago. My early tests with the z6 Ii for wildlife, sports and portraits, frame rate hits the sweet spot! Best purchase on 42nd Street photo so far. Excellent and as advertised!
War sehr hilfsbereit, als er mich informierte und mir einen Kostenvoranschlag für eine Hausratversicherung machte. Sehr einfach reibungslosen Prozess.
I contacted 42nd street photo to purchase a new Mirrorless camera as I wanted to take up photography again, they advised on best options for the camera I had chosen, offered me alternative choice to consider and then designed a package that suited my needs. I had a really easy and helpful experience with the sales team; I would highly recommend them to anyone
I upgraded from the 24mp A7III to A7RIIIA. Sony hit a home run with this camera body. Best for the money. I'm using it for portraits, bird and Macro photography. Still one of the best in 2022 for the price. The accessories kit was just awesome and threw in everything I needed without separate transactions. This is another timeless product from 42nd Photo, they have great selections, prices and services. Highly recommend 42nd St Photo to everyone. Thank you
I've ordered various photography gear from New York, B&H and now this GFX 100S from 42nd PHOTO. I left a positive review and their excellent service has not wavered.
42photo.com's $100 and above Free Shipping to Canada, Henry's pales in comparison, and this is a huge difference.
42nd photo is always teeming with a full Fuji stock, treasure troves of information throughout the website, FAQs, and product reviews.
