Can't wait to be back to get more photos developed!

I'm so impressed with George's customer service. I would give ten thousand stars if I could…read more I'll admit it: I'm an impulsive buyer. Once I decide I need something, I get fixated on it and need it in that moment. I typically buy my electronics from Best Buy, but they didn't have the flash I wanted in stock locally, and waiting a few days for delivery clearly wasn't an option for me. So I started looking up local camera stores and found George's Camera. Lucky me! I called, and they told me they had ONE left in stock. At that point, I wasn't taking any chances. I immediately asked if I could purchase it over the phone and pick it up that same day. They were more than accommodating. Now, this is where my poor planning comes in. The store closes at 6 PM, and I risked it all by getting there around 5:56 PM. I was already slightly panicked knowing I had cut it way too close, but what I absolutely did NOT anticipate was pulling up and discovering a Farmer's Market happening and nowhere to park! At that point, I knew I had officially pushed my luck. I called the store in a panic, and to my surprise someone actually answered the phone. Yes, I was suprised because the average business would of just watched it ring. By this time, I had circled around the store again and noticed the metal gate in front of the store was partially closed. My heart dropped. I knew there was no way I would make it in the store before closing. I explained the situation and asked if there was any way they could bring my purchase out to me. At 5:59 PM, ONE minute before closing, a staff member came outside and handed me my flash. Now THAT is customer service! They absolutely didn't have to do that, especially when I was the one showing up at the last possible second, but they truly saved the day. I appreciate them so much. And now, thanks to George's Camera, I'll be up all night practicing (yes, I've never used one ) with a flash I probably had no business impulsively buying in the first place. But considering they had exactly ONE left, let me buy it over the phone, and somehow got it into my hands at 5:59 PM despite a farmers market standing between me and my purchase...I'm choosing to believe I was destined to have this flash. Thank you soooooo much! George's Camera definitely gained a new customer today!

If you're a photographer - professional or hobbyist - George's Camera is where to go! This place…read morehas everything: lighting gear, camera bags, lenses, and enough accessories to make you question whether you've ever truly taken a "real" photo in your life. The staff? Walking encyclopedias. I'm convinced they collectively know every camera ever created, including the ones that were prototypes, rumors, or fever dreams. I brought in an old Canon my brother gave me--so old it probably qualifies for Social Security--and the gentleman behind the counter with the long white beard took one look and immediately knew its entire genealogy. Extremely helpful, extremely patient, and honestly, I'm 70% sure he's a wizard. If you're in North Park and need anything for your inner shutterbug or just want to bask in the glow of pure photographic tribal knowledge--George's is the spot!

I started going here a couple months ago for film development and negative scans and I've been…read moresuper pleased with the results. Compared to other places the prices are super reasonable and all my scans have come out great. They have multiple options for scan quality, and if you wanted to get super high quality scans for prints they offer that too. My normal turnaround time for scans has been 2 business days every time I've been, which is faster than a lot of other places and they hold your negatives afterward for 30 days I think, so the next time you bring in film you can just pick them up then.

Other stores I've visited are frequently out of 35mm color film, but Camera Exposure regularly has various types. Their film development prices are the cheapest I've seen. My photos are scanned and shared with me via Google Drive usually within 1 week of drop off. They also have good prices for prints, especially smaller sizes. The staff is friendly and helpful, and there is plenty of street parking near the store. They are closed on Sundays and Mondays. I am just learning about film photography and don't know much about digital photography, but the shop has plenty of cameras, lenses, and other supplies worth checking out!

My experience with this company was very disappointing. From the beginning, the service was…read moreexpensive, and despite the cost, they were unable to solve the problem I hired them for. What concerns me the most is that when I requested warranty service, they refused to honor their warranty and instead tried to charge me for every shipment, even though the issue was not caused by me. In my opinion, a warranty should stand behind the work performed, not create additional costs for the customer when the original problem has not been resolved. I expected a higher level of professionalism and better after-sales support. Unfortunately, my experience was negative, and for that reason I cannot recommend this company. I hope they improve both their warranty policies and the way they treat their customers.

I rented a video camera and related equipment from another place (due to proximity) but even though…read moreI tested everything in the store, the equipment wasn't working at my location. I wasn't given the manual and all I could find online were PDFs that would only load with Flash player (thanks iPhone) and websites of sarcastic owners scolding people to "read their manuals." I was completely SOL, about to miss the entire event I was supposed to record and there was probably no way they were going to refund the cost of the rental equipment. I pulled up Yelp and began seeing that all camera stores in my area where now closed (8:45pm on a Friday night), except for one who didn't list a closing time. I called. Trevor answered. He was just finishing up a shoot and was in my neighborhood. Minutes later, we were on the street, troubleshooting my dilemma. Within moments the issue was resolved. Trevor refused payment, shook my hand, and was off, like a superhero into the night, not looking for gratitude or reward...just out there, doing the right thing. Trevor, thank you so much! Next time I rent camera equipment, I'm coming to JFO first!

Been glad for a long time that they're around to rent from!

Upon the day my custom order was to be completed I called for tracking information. Due to COVID their office hours are compromised, all I got was voice mail, which is fine, I also sent a email. I got a response via email that tracking would be provided that day, however, I was told my item most likely would be delivered that day before they could provide tracking. From there I got no response for 8 days, no matter how many emails or voice mail I left. Luckily the logistics company tracked us down and called us directly. There response to why my item was never delivered is no one from Display Warehouse would return their call or emails regarding delivery of our item. I understand that we are in a pandemic, but how hard is it to answer a email or pick up the phone. I have clients that are waiting on this to complete their project, for two weeks I had to keep moving the date back and apologize. My client is very angry and this makes us look bad. Not a good experience.
