Before digital cameras really took off I regularly used Jessops to develop all of my disposable…read morecameras. I have always found the service to be very efficient and the staff helpful and professional. This was definitely the case recently when on honeymoon our digital camera died on us and appeared to wipe all of our honeymoon photos. After a frantic call to Jessop's we went down and they managed to recover all of our photos and load them onto a CD at no charge. The process took a few hours and not once did they moan and they completely sympathised with my upset. The manager was brilliant and when we wanted all the pictures printed they gave us a really good deal. It is always busy in there with people asking advice on different products and I have always found the staff very knowledgeable.

Seriously, forget what your professional photographer friend said about Canon, it's the Practika you need". Let you get hands-on with stuff, so you can see it working - which is a huge bonus. But, after all that, then you have the pricing. Good web sites beat John Lewis by around 30%. John Lewis beats most high street stores by around 10% - and often give a better warranty. Other high street stores are probably 10-20% cheaper than Spectrum. When you add it all up, the real cost of buying here is phenominal.

Had a passport photo taken here. It was only after the photo was taken I was told it was the…read more'£12.99 special' which is more than double the price you would pay anywhere else in London. Nigel who took the photos was very friendly however I was not shown the photos or given an option before printing. The photos provided were unusable and rejected by the passport office as they were taken against a dark grey background. I went back in to the store the next day where I was offered a replacement however as the photo printer was broken I would need to wait 20 mins. In fairness the background was much improved but instead of receiving a set of 8 different photos (as with the first attempt) I was given 4 photos - of what I assume was the worst shot. This is not a photo I will be using in my passport. I have since given up and gone two doors down where the cost came in at £6. It also turns out this is where Nigel had gone to print out the photos charging a considerable markup. To cut a long story short - avoid at all costs. Rip off merchants.
