Seen quickly on the Drummond St. shop by a knowledgeable salesman who pointed out key features on SB910 flash I was buying. In and out in 20 minutes - excellent.

Good service generally but I wasn't happy that the second Matthews 40" grip arm wasn't available and it took 2 calls to find out that you couldn't get hold of it.

I have always had good service from Calumet, Bristol, so I have no complaints about anything at the moment. I always recommend Calumet to friends.

I was initially very impressed by your staff in your Belfast office. I travelled from Dublin to purchase over £5000 worth of camera equipment (Nikon D800e with grip and extra battery, Nikkor 24 1.4, Nikkor 50 1.8, a Gitzo Traveller tripod, and a Billingham Hadley Pro Bag) late last year. Your representative was very knowledgeable and had stock shipped in from other branches to ensure everything I wanted was available. I was very happy with my purchases Three weeks later; however, I decided I wanted to purchase another Nikon lens (70-200 2.8) and when I contacted your Belfast branch for pricing, I was only offered the standard Nikon cash back discount, which is available to anyone purchasing the lens. I had hoped after spending over £5,000, and looking to spend an additional £1600 that I would at least get an extra 5% off. I was very disappointed with this, and travelled to Belfast where I purchased the 70 - 200 lens in Jessops because it was marginally less expensive. I really appreciate great customer service, but I also shop around for the best prices; and Calumet lost a customer because of this. Regards, Justin Mahon jbmahon@gmail.com

I've dealt with Calumet in Glasgow for a few years now and I'd recommend to anyone wishing to make a purchase of any photographic gear the staff there to anyone. The guy's are very very knowledgeable, helpful and professional and will be more than delighted to discuss your needs. Calumet may not be the cheapest compared to online box shifters but at the ned of the day if you need support of help with a purchase I know who I'd rather be dealing with compared to an

I have made several purchases and I have found the customer service levels on occassions to be below expected. You refused to accept my student discount as it had expired but had done so because I was waiting for an item of your own brand merchandise to come back into stock. Wheelie bag. I always shop around before coming back to you to make any purchases.

The big problem was that the courier wouldn't leave the delivery on the porch as requested, so i had to drive several miles through a toll tunnel to collect the package from the depot. the courier said that this was Calumet's policy, not the courier's. Apart from the inconvenience, it added about £6.00 to the cost, so I'll probably use other suppliers when I can.

The bag is great, perfect for what I want it to do (carry one body with a couple of lenses, a flash and a tripod), but the rain cover does seem a bit flimsy and I managed to rip it within a couple of months of getting it whilst hurriedly trying to cover my bag during some rain.

I drove 100 miles each way for a grey background roll. When I arrived there were 2 there slightly different colours. I knew this before as I had called the day before. Someone had called and reserved both rolls, they only needed one. So I left empty handed as the other customer was coming in the next day. Great for him. For me I guess I've spent over 50K with calumet, not good business. Really I'd expect some form of compensation.

Always a pleasure to buy in a shop where the staff are invariably very knowledgeable. Just wish I had more money and could afford to shop at C more often. But I might be tempted by a lease deal to update my DSLR later this year.
