Between myself and my other half, we have quite a lot of camera equipment that cost us rather a lot…read moreof money. We know nothing lasts forever, but that said - we need to be able to rely on our equipment, and make it last as long as we can before replacing. Lots of places offer servicing of cameras - but normally they're mail order services where you post your camera off and cross your fingers it'll come back in one piece. (Yes, I'm paranoid!) We've been lucky as (touch wood) nothing serious has ever happened.. so as yet, we've just been in need of sensor cleans to get rid of those annoying bits of dust that can get trapped inside the body. That's where HPC comes in - when we discovered this local place where we can take the equipment and see who we're giving it to, it was a massive weight off our minds. Over the past few years we've regularly taken our cameras for sensor cleans here, and everything has always come back as good as new! Brilliant!

As you do, my partner and I both failed to do anything about getting our camera fixed for a long,…read morelong time.. But with our holiday fast approaching, we realised we had to get it fixed, quickly. I'd only heard good, if not brilliant things about John and the Halesowen Photo Centre, so I decided to head on down with my camera, having no idea why it was being so temperamental, to see if John could fix it. With over a week before we left, John politely asked if we were in a rush and to rate the urgency of the matter. Despite admitting it wasn't of the up most importance, he had it fixed in a few days and I collected it, yet to experience any problems four months later. Everything about this place is fantastic, anyone with a camera predicament, see John.

I headed for Jessops after a bit of a camera crisis this morning. I'd been out taking photos of…read morecentral Birmingham when my main camera lens cap decided to get jammed. I needed to take more photos so posted a panicky message on Facebook. Ling, one of the other local Yelpers came to my rescue in seconds and suggested Jessops. Anyway, from the top of the Cube, I headed over to Jessops with a few diversions. There was a greeter on the door so I asked if anyone could help with my lens cap problem. The greeter then took me over to one of the counters, fiddled and prodded the lens for a while, looked perplexed then tried again giving it a huge tug and off it popped showing no signs of damage. This made me very happy as I'd only had the lens a couple of months! Top scoring for a quick and cost free service. PS I must go back to Jessops and have a look at their equipment later.

Ag Photographic operate as an online shop - however for those eagle eyed brummies who want to save…read moreon post and packaging, you can go and visit them in Aston where you can browse through the hefty range of film and developing equipment available to buy. The two blokes who run the shop are really passionate about photography, full of advice not just on the products they sell but on where to go for other services such as processing. They also take a genuine interest in what you're working on, and if they're not able to help when you next visit they'll be full of questions about how you got on. Example stock - 35mm film, 120 film, wide range of papers to print onto, chemicals to develop - basically anything an analogue photographer could need. They're currently in the process of developing their own darkroom facilities, and rumour has it they may offer membership to those who're interested in using such a service. Eg - ME! Exciting! (Hurry up, I'm impatient! :)

If you are looking for gifts to buy for someone who is celebrating an anniversary, birthday etc, you might want to come here. On so many occasions I had driven past this shop and yet I didn't go in it until last week. From framed photos to clocks to birthday glasses, these are some of things you can purchase from here. In terms of prices, the items on sale are not overly expensive and there might be one or two bargains you might want to snap up from here. If your looking for someone to frame a signed sports shirt or any photographs, Smiths could be your answer. I strongly recommend locals to come here if you are looking for special gifts for that special one. Staff are first class and they will help you.
