I walked in, sat for the photo, and within 15 minutes I had my two passport photos. The cost is low here, about $15 for both passport photos. This is a family owned business, and the workers here are friendly. They are located on a large shopping plaza. Parking is sometimes hard to come by if you come here on a busy day, and other times its a breeze. Their work is great, my passport photos always come out looking well. The quick turnaround times and decent pricing make this an excellent option for photos. I wish the DMV would learn from them.

In terms of the qualify of the photo, they don't really do any editing or touch up like some other photo studios so pretty straight forward. It's a bit pricey if you want both digital or physical photos but I do like how they can also adjust the photo for different country's requirements. Was able to pick up the physical copies the next day!

THANK YOU DEAN!!!!…read more A month ago, my Canon Gx7 mark III broke after 3 years, and I had no idea what was wrong with it. The touch screen stopped working and I couldn't focus on anything. I tried to get quotes from various camera repair shops around LA and no one could fix it. I was thinking about going to the Canon repair HQ in Costa Mesa, but they are only open on weekdays and I work in LA, I'm not gonna go all the way down to the OC. Then I found Dean! I read all the reviews about him and decided to take my camera to him. Dean was so nice and professional, he knew exactly what was wrong with my camera and how to fix it. It took about a month of repairs because he had to order new parts, and it's hard to come by because the camera became really popular over the last couple years. but I just got it back and it's like it's brand new! Worth whatever I paid for the repairs and avoiding having to buy a new camera! He only takes cash, but get your debit cards ready and go to the ATM, because he's totally worth it!!

Amazing and quick service! Gave some CLA to my Canon-AE1 and was also able to point out several…read moreissues which he was able to fix as well.

But instead, I had to argue with the salesman and dispute the charge with my credit card company. I have yet to receive all of my money back. Very poor business practice. After I posted the review above, rather than apologizing and trying to rectify the situation, I received an email from the owner threatening litigation. Despite that I feel the information in my review, is accurate, I have included additional information to support my review. Top Lens Rental stated that they witheld 4% from my refund to cover the cost of the credit card transaction. They advertise that they "are a mail-order rental business which is a mailing/shipping operation" and that the only place they don't ship to is Canada yet they refused to give me a full refund when they wouldn't ship my rental order to Washington.

I was expecting at least some hassle or a restocking fee--but they gave me a full refund, no questions asked. What really blew me away, though, was their honesty. I ended up switching to a Fujifilm model, and the staff member let me know that another shop back east was running a $500 discount on it--and then matched that deal for me on the spot. I had no idea about the promotion, and they easily could have charged full price. I still would have been happy based on the return experience alone. Friendly staff? Check. Great customer service? Check. But that level of honesty and integrity is something you just don't see anymore. That's what sets this place apart. You really can't put a price on that kind of trust.

Visited today and saw the new Leica section. Also received a Nikonos V, and wanted to have a better understanding of the camera.

So lucky to have these enthusiasts in our community and what a great store.
