42nd Street Photo

Had a very good experience with 42nd St Photo. Purchased a Canon 60D and the buy was great. Everything that was ordered was in the box and came on time. The customer service was great, questions that I had were answered. If your looking for camera's and or accessories i strongly suggest this business. more

Had a very good experience with 42nd St Photo. Purchased a Canon T2i for Christmas and feel like I got a very good deal for the money. Least expensive place on the web to buy this camera. Very pleased with the speed of delivery. Camera was at my door within 3 days! I'll be back. more

I purchased a sony DSC- HX1 the day after Christmas. I got it in 3 days!! I searched for the best price and 42nd Street Photo was the cheapest by far! Got a follow up call confirming my item and the address, and it was at my door 2 days later! I am very happy with my new purchase and the camera works great! I will definitely do business with 42nd Street Photo again in the future!!! Thank you! more

I purchased the Sony DSC-HX1 the week before Christmas and it arrived within 3 days. The price was the best on the internet by far. Product arrived in perfect condition and I am extremely satisfied. I will definitely consider doing business with them again the next time I'm in the market for a camera or other device. more

I bought the new Sony NEX-5 from 42nd Street Photo and it is a GREAT camera (photos, video and ""looks"") so far! I wanted a simple, but “professional” camera for my wife, and this camera is perfect.\r \r I choose 42nd Street Photo because their price for the NEX-5 was much cheaper than anywhere else and a friend told me they were a good business. 42nd Street Photo's internet site was easy to use and make my purchase and a sales rep called me the next day to confirm the purchase and answer any questions I had. The sales rep suggested a UV Filter because it would help prevent scratches on the lens and keep dust out. It is much cheaper to replace the UV Filter vs. the lens, so I’m glad he suggested that. He patiently answered all of my questions (10 minutes worth!) and told me I was getting a free lens cleaning kit with my order! \r \r As soon I received the camera, I upgraded the firmware to version 3 (it was shipped out as 2) and had no problems (version 3 helps extend the battery’s life and makes the controls easier).\r \r The photos we have taken so far have been great. You don't even need to use the included flash (low light shots are amazing and no flash going off and “washing out” our picts) and the depth of field looks so much better (of course) than our “old” ~$350 point and shoot.\r \r The NEX-5 has HD video (1080i) and I am very particular about the way video looks (resolution, lag, etc.) and have the best equipment (50 inch Plasma, HDMI cable, AVCHD capability on my PS3) and the video on the NEX-5 is great (low light is AMAZING!)... The only negative about his camera is that it was a 50i (“i” version is imprinted on the bottom of the camera) vs. a 60i (meaning this NEX-5 was the European version, not North American version) and the battery charger was the European version, so there was a cord vs. being able to plug the charger straight into an outlet)…But I don’t see any lag with the 10i difference).\r \r Note: I am using two SanDisk Extreme (Class 10) 4GB SDHC cards (~1000 picts on fine and 30 minutes of HD video) and they are FAST (can handle the 7 fps and the 1080 video well)! I also went ahead and purchased an additional battery (same as the one that was sent with the battery (lasts ~300 shots) and a screen protector (other reviewers said that the screen scratches easily).\r \r I am so happy with 42nd Street Photo and our new Sony NEX-5! \r more

I bought a Sony HDR-CX550V camcorder from 42nd Street Photo. I bought this right before Christmas and I was not expecting to get it very quickly considering the time of year the order was placed. I was surprised to find the camcorder was delivered within 3 days. The price was better then any retail store that was selling it in my area. Free shipping too. I would definitely buy again from 42nd Street Photo. more

42nd St. had a really good price on my Canon T1i. They shipped the same day, and I had the camera within a week with free shipping which was really nice.\r They convinced me to buy an extra battery and a memory card, which is fine, but they told me I could only get this ""great deal"" at the time of purchase of the camera. The salesman I spoke to greatly overexaggerated the value of the memory card that I bought, so this ""great deal"" turned out to really be normal prices for what I received. Overall though, I am still happy that I got a good deal on the camera. more

The crew at 42nd St were very accomodating, as I tried to get delivery before Christmas. I was quite pleased with the deal and with the friendliness with which i was treated. The product speaks for itself, but the service needs to be spoken of, and in this case was excellent. I'm very happy with my dealings at 42nd St - and my wife is most pleased with her new camera! more

Checkout was extremely easy online and 42nd photo definitely had the best deal out of all its competitors online. Received a confirmation call few days later which was nice, but didn't really like how the person was somewhat pushy in trying to sell me a memory card and a warranty. That annoyed me, but I understand it was all out of good intentions to insure that I had the right memory card and knew that I had the option of buying a warranty. Overall, good experience. Shipment didn't come in time for Christmas, which was a bummer, but my brother said the camera was well worth the wait! more

This was a great experience. I ordered online (good low price) and was then called by a PERSON! to verify my name and address and item purchased. He asked if I had any questions about the order or the product (I didn't) and was very low-key-didn't try to sell anything, though when I mentioned I'd dropped my former camera, he did ask if I wanted insurance (I didn't). When I asked about the double memory offer, he verified that it's not from purchasing the camera, but purchasing the memory, but, again, didn't push to sell. Very pleasant-available, offering, but not pushy. The camera arrived in 2 days! Fast service, too. And it included an offer for a free camera case and screen protectors just for writing a review-great incentive to encourage reviews. Very pleased. A good source for cameras. And they've been around for a long time; trust them. George Nettleton Willow Street, PA more

I purchased the above camera for my husband for Christmas-I'll have to say, I was very leary using an internet company that I was not familiar with for this purchase. i was very pleased 42nd Street Photo. I not only got the camera cheaper than every where else, but I ordered it a few days before Christmas and got it on time--which I was very concerned about. The salesperson was very polite and knowledgeable. I would not hesitate to use this company again. Very pleased with the entire transaction. Thank you for such great service and a great camera. We love it! more

Dec. 29, 2010 imcl2332 says: 42nd Street Photo had the best on-line price for the Canon Power Shot S95 I purchased, with free delivery. I was pleased that a salesman contacted me before the shipment went out and suggested I purchase a memory card, in a two for one sale. Despite estimating a week's delivery time, the package arrived the following Monday after placing the order on Friday, well before Christmas. Impeccable service, I would certainly recommend them to anybody who asked. more

Perfect service, followed up with me right after the online order has been placed on a Sunday and asked for additional need. Bought a Canon EOS 60D with the 24-70 F/2.8 glasses. Really good and fast service, can highly recommend. more

42nd ST. Photo had the best price online that I could find for Kodak's Z981 Camera. Ordered it and Sales Rep contacted me right away to confirm order and offer 50% off memory card. Items arrived very quickly with free shipping. Very pleased with this transaction and will recommend to friends and family more

Was looking for a Canon T2i camera with a Canon 28-135 mm zoom lens. 42nd St Photo had the best price and the items were in stock so they shipped the same day. The customer service rep was very helpful. The package arrived on time and in perfect shape. I will be shopping here again. more

I received a gift camera for Christmas. The camera and the accompanying memory card and cleaner kit were exactly as advertised. Good service and good prices. more

Was very familiar with 42nd St. Photo. Purchased there many yearsago back in the days of rolled film. Now, that I'm getting back into digital photo....thought of them first.\r Still good pricing and great c.s.\r \r thanks. more

Did a price search, and 42 Street Photo had the best prices by far. Had read reviews and expected shipment to be held up until a service rep called to verify the order/try to sell extra accessories. Would have found this irritating (extra unnecessary delay, since it took 3 calls each to finally connect w/ them)... However, turned out to be a non-issue bc free shipping was very fast! Camera arrived within days (sure, NJ isn't far from NY, but with the holidays I was expecting the worst), with accurate shipment tracking and the added bonus of a free lens cleaning kit. Thank you for the excellent service. Will definitely recommend to friends! more

I was looking for a Sony camcorder a few days before Christmas. 42nd Street Photo offered the Sony HDR-CX 350V at the lowest price anywhere. I bought it online on Monday and expected it to be delivered after Christmas but to my surpriee I received it already on Thursday. I could not believe how quickly and efficiently the sale and shipping were executed. more

I had a phenomenal experience with 42nd Street Photo. I placed my order for a Lumix GF1 early in the morning. I received the obligatory confirmation/sales call mid afternoon, which was quick and friendly. My camera shipped later that afternoon. It arrived exactly as expected, and their price could not be beat. I will definitely shop here again. more
