On my first visit to the shop i was a little bit shy, but the personal service made me relaxed, because i was able to talk freely about my NIKON D7000 Camera. The service was Fantastic and i'll be in the shop again soon. I bought 2 items & i'm very happy with both.

The free delivery quoted on your website for orders over £100 do not apply to large areas of the UK. High surcharges are applied to many UK mainland and island areas which your chosen delivery suppliers regard as less profitable. This is unfair and prevents you from doing far better business with customers in these regions. I like your website and products and have recommended you to colleagues but the excessive delivery charges are unacceptable.

Always EXCELLENT service from ALL the team at Manchester Calumet. Everyone has a wealth of information, which they are always happy to share. The team certainly helped me to launch my photography business in 2013, don't know what l would have done without them. Their advice when l purchased my camera and lenses was invaluable and they really helped me make the right choices. Must mention in particular...Richard and Paddy…they are awesome! Wishing you all the best for 2014 Karen Hesmondhalgh

I had a great time, to buy on calumet photographic. The safety officer to communicate with customers, it is prepared, professional, helpful and very polite. The only slight negative is that some things just can not be her via email, but only over the phone. And for people like me who buy from Italy, is more complicated and expensive to communicate by phone. I recommend everyone to buy on calumet photographic.

The staff will give time and expert help and will not pressure you into buying the product you want or new products, if they think a similar, different or even second-hand would be more suitable to your needs. Fab!

Excellent service, from phone call to collection. A pleasure, in this day and age, to be served by friendly and knowledgeable staff to whom nothing seems too much or any trouble.

Only ever use the Manchester branch but always good & efficient service plus good pricings and this stems from the recommendation of my son using them prior to his moving to Australia , and again I`m sure he would say he would say a very good service

I live in Fife, Scotland. This was my first purchase with Calumet and it couldn't have been more straight forward, i am an avid Amazon purchaser and tend to always lean their way but the value was better for the item i ordered with Calumet (Fuji X-Pro1 +free accessory). Glad i took the leap, i can't comment on customer service as nothign has gone wrong with my purchase. Thanks Stuart

I've bought quite a bit of kit from Calumet in the last couple of years, mainly online. The website is easy to use and navigate, I have no complaints with the prices or service as I rarely have any contact with a human being at Calumet and do my research online before purchasing anything. However, I purchased a battery pack for my speed lights last year and couldn't get it to work. After a fruitless phone call to the Calumet help desk it was suggested I take the battery to my nearest store where it could be checked for faults. After travelling to Manchester from Doncaster the fault was easily resolved (I should have also had batteries in my speedlights to complete the circuit) & something that I feel staff on the help desk should have known. It cost me a train ticket and half a day out of the studio to find this out, pretty annoying. The staff member in the store was very busy and not at all apologetic which made it more annoying.

Looking for a camera bag. Excellent range and choice. Free to look in great detail and try to see which bag fitted particular lenses etc best.

As usual, my recent purchase of a Nikon Sb700 flash unit and Calumet soft box was a most pleasant experience due to the excellent service I received from the sales assistant. I prefer to make the 15 mile journey to the store so that I can actually see the Items I am buying before purchasing, and also because any questions I may have are always answered by people who are knowledgeable and keen to share their knowledge. This sort of service is all too rare these days.

Friendly, knowledgeable and helpful staff who know their regulars by name. Competitive pricing (not always the cheapest, but still very competitive), and a good stock. If you want something and you want it now, Calumet’s the “go to” choice.
