I've been buying from this place for well over a decade and they have never let me down. The latest order was a replacement hood for an old lens I still use. Packed carefully and the box arrived intact. Prices remain sensible and the site has got easier to use over the years. Nothing to complain about, I'll keep coming back.
Read moreCompared three shops before picking this one for a lens hood. The hood arrived fine but it was the wrong size for my lens. Sending it back was a bit of a faff, the returns form was fiddly and I had to ring twice to get a label. Eventually sorted but it took the best part of two weeks.
Read moreI purchased a replacement lens hood for my older camera, as the original had cracked when it fell off a bench. The site listed it as fitting my model and it did, the fit is snug and sits straight. I was glad not to pay the manufacturer's price, which was considerably higher. The order arrived within the week and was carefully wrapped. I found the whole thing very straightforward and I shall…
Read moreCompared it with the lens that came with my body, and this one is clearly sharper in the corners at f2.8. Shipping was next day and the packaging was fine. The only snag was that the tracking page didn't update until the evening, so I was a bit in the dark for a while. Otherwise good value for what you get.
Compared it with two other sites before ordering and this one came out ahead on the price for the same lens filter kit. Ordered on a Tuesday evening and it turned up the following Monday, which was fine. The only thing I'd change is the checkout, it asked me to create an account twice and I had to go back and log in again. Otherwise no complaints and I'd happily order again.
This is a bit more than the rival site I usually use, but the lens cap and filter came in a nicer box so I didn't mind. Delivery was quick and the tracking worked. The checkout asked me to confirm my address twice which was slightly annoying. Would probably order again.
I have been ordering from this site for around six years now and it's still my first port of call for lens accessories. Prices are steady and the stock levels are usually good. Once a delivery went astray and it took a few days to get sorted, which was annoying but resolved. Still a good place to shop.
Needed a spare battery in a hurry for a day out and wanted something that wasn't a fortune. Compared a few sites and this came out on top for price. The order took a couple of days to arrive which was fine. Battery works well so far. The one thing I'd say is the checkout asked for my details twice.
The stand out thing for me was the range of flashes and how well they described the differences between them, which saved me a lot of reading. The flash I chose came quickly, but the second item in the same order was on backorder and arrived almost a week later. I wasn't told about the backorder until after I'd paid. Otherwise a sensible place to buy from and the price was right.
