I've always found Calumet staff in Bristol to be extremely helpful with a great product knowledge. I recently purchased two Hoya filters cheaper than I could get a single one locally, so very happy with the pricing as well.

Bought a Canon 760D body, great price, great service in their shop in Belfast. Even gave me £50 worth of accessories free. Great deal highly recommended. Mike. Holywood.

Very surprised indeed that the holding choice of monochrome film was low , likewise filters, Cokin P , range of solid reds and yellows, the orange and greens, dare one suggest infra red....equals inverted water melon smile , that means looking glum. Cheer up chaps, the monochrome revolution is on the rise.. alot of pros are beginning to dislike digital and are going back to film, thats what photography is all about. Try it your self, and you will be surprised.

Unfortunately do not take notice of emails. Asked and confirmed not to have items delivered before the 28th of June as no one available to take delivery, only to return home on the 27th after a weeks holiday to find a card that said tried delivering on the 24th!!

I went in to purchase a few items from my local store and the staff sorted out methods for me to purchase an item and I had an issue with the finance copy and they were always happy to help out and very patient with everything and took extra time to help as much as possible.

My recent purchase was actually a place on Gary Perlmutter's street photography workshop run out of Calumet Drummond Street. I can't speak too highly of this. Gary was outstanding and Calumet's backup was excellent.

I bought a Bowen's 400 rx twin light kit. Delivery. Was fast as was the checkout process. When the package was opened on Thursday one of the modelling bulbs was smashed. Turned the heads on and they appeared to work fine. Working with them Saturday one of the heads stopped working after approximately 5 minutes ! Managed to complete the work and went home slightly miffed that my brand new kit wasn't what I'd hoped. Rang customer services who were incredibly helpful. Took the time to listen, understand and gave me a solution. 60 miles later I turned up at the showroom on the Hagley Rd in Birmingham. The showroom was spotless and I was immediately spoken to. The guy who served me was fantastic. Really pleasant and helped me out. He waited until the light failed again, answered my questions and gave me great advice . They swapped over the faulty light and delivered really great customer service. Thank you to all the staff I've dealt with. You have all been a credit to your company. I will definitely be buying further equipment from you!

I purchased an used DSLR. Very fair price which included bag,charger and 1 year warranty. Friendly helpful staff with minimal sales pressure. They also offered to bring in stock from branches on the mainland. The only downside was the rather limited range of secondhand cameras but I suppose that depends what comes in the door. I'd definitely buy from them again.

As with all my contacts with Calumet, both in person at Bristol and through central telephone ordering, this order was no different. I called to get a second battery pack for my Nikon. Having experience of Calumets own brand I ordered one, however, it was put on back order due to manufacturing issues in Japan. I was kept up to date on delivery. The staff are very knowledgeable, friendly and give a feeling of people centred service - Excellent. I also find Calumet a fantastic location to go and see equipment in a relaxed atmosphere.

I had excellent service from a very patient expert in the Glasgow store. He explained all the choices for a cropped frame camera, gave me stuff away to read and helped make my final decision to buy a lens. I'll definitely go back there. Thanks
