I spent weeks researching the purchase of new lens for my son. He had requested a Canon 85mm f/1.2L II USM lens for an upcoming film festival, and I wanted to find the best deal. I searched all of my regular sites, but then ran across 42nd Street Photo's website. I had never made a purchase here before, and in fact, I had never seen their site. But what I found was a NEW lens for a price that was CHEAPER than advertised used lens from competitors. When trying to finalize my order, the staff was also very helpful as I selected an UF filter to protect the lens, and cooperated in helping me get expedited shipping to ensure it arrived in time for his film festival. In the end, I saved over $350...and I got a NEW lens, delivered on time, with exceptional service...and my son was excited! A win-win purchase and encounter. A+++++

I am looking to purchase a canon 16-35 mm f/4 lens and 42nd Street Photo has the lowest price as usual. I called them this morning and Michael recognized my voice immediately and it felt good speaking to a friend instead of a stranger. I have been shopping at 42nd street photo for over 10 yrs. I bought a canon T4i, Canon 6D, 24-70 mm f/2.8 Lens, 70-200 mm f/2.8 Lens and Macro 100 mm f/2.8 Lens from 42nd Street Photo. I trust them with my camera’s gears. 42nd Street Photo is my 1st choice.

Not only are the prices significantly lower than any other place I could find on the web their customer service is really what stood out. They contacted me two three times after my purchase letting me know the details and asking how my experience was, very professional and will do business with them again.

Always great prices, great packing & shipping. Never a problem with these guys. We have two companies and have been buying equipment from them for over a decade.

This my second(or third,can't remember!) purchase from 42nd Street Photo. Customer service second to none, they even call to see how you like the product you bought,etc..Shipping was lightening fast. Would recommend these guys anytime!

I've purchased several items from 42nd Street Photo and keep coming back because their prices are better than any where else. I always buy name brand items that are new. They have always been shipped promptly and are received in good condition. In January 2018 I purchased a Canon EF 1.4X III Extender TeleConverter for Canon Lenses and it is identical to what I would have purchase anywhere else and exactly what I wanted. Other purchases in the past year include a Canon EOS 5D Mark IV DSLR Camera body, a Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6II Image Stabilized Lens and a Canon EF 24-70 II USM Autofocus lens. I've saved hundreds of dollars by shopping here and I wouldn't keep coming back if I wasn't completely satisfied.

Purchased a SIgma F4.0 24-105 DG Zoom. Lens was a great price and was delivered as described on time. I also called them about some warranty questions. Answered questions with no pressure to upgrade warranty. Lens is great too.

Great deal on a brand new lens, well below amazon, fast and safe shipping. I simply could not be more pleased. I called in to order and found the clerk very helpful and polite.
