I had a wonderful experience buying some gear. Robert was extremely knowledgeable, kind and patient. Thank you so much for your help and for answering all my questions Robert!I highly recommend the store. Competitive prices and wonderful service!
In all aspects, this store deserves a 5-star rating. The selection is unmatched - they always have what I need, in stock. Even the hard-to-find items are somehow always somewhere on the shelves when I ask. The store is very clean and organized. Parking is never an issue and its nice supporting a local small business in the Design District. The staff is simply the best. Its a finely-tuned family business and it shows. From the owner, Eugene, down to Robert and Scott, these guys know their industry and their products, to the finest detail. Their policies are strict but fair. Prices are somehow always as low or lower than all the major retailers liker B&H and Best Buy so theres really no reason for me to shop anywhere else. Dont ask for a price match before you hear their price because youll likely cost yourself an unnecessary expense! From the amateur hobbyist to a seasoned pro, Competitive Cameras simply offers more than any other store ever can or will.
Eugene sold me a teleconverter at a competitive price; it was delivered by courier the VERY NEXT DAY...no longer any perceived need to get this stuff from major retailers in NYC; he also advised me about the manufacturers firmware updates that had to be made to the lenses and camera bodies for this all to work. its all done and all works. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP. Its great that a camera store like this exists in the area so you can actually look at and evaluate something you might be considering.
Competitive Camera was suggested to me by a friend for my new lens purchase. Called the store to place the order and talked with Eugene, then followed up emails, I was surprised how fast he responded to every one of them. Absolutely the best to do business with. Shipping was quick and double boxed. Thank you for the great customer service.
This is the only place I will ever buy camera gear from EVER. I use these guys exclusively for all my camera needs. Service after the sale is off the charts. I send all my friends here. Eugene and the boys are amazing. Camera gear can be expensive. Dont trust your camera purchase to some random mail order guy in a New York basement cubicle. Use Competitive. They are AWESOME.
I cant say enough good things about the folks at Competitive Cameras. The entire staff is incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. There selection and in-store inventory is second to none in the area. Ive bought several camera bodies, lenses, lights, gimbals, tripods, and other accessories from them. I am never disappointed with their recommendations. I dont buy camera equipment anywhere else.
Eugene handled an image transfer of a loved one with great sensitivity. Thank you for the quick and professional service. Highly recommend this business.
A great collection of new, high quality gear. The rep we talked to knew what he was talking about- however he was very aggressive when it came to selling you on stuff. Overall though, knowledgeable and helpful.
Found Competitive Camera through a Google search. Before that, B&H was my go to place for camera gear but I tend to be impatient and like to see things in person. Visited Competitive Camera and was completely impressed. Extremely friendly, knowledgeable, very helpful, and great stock on camera gear. Got questions? They will steer you in the right direction. I have worked with Eugene a couple of times now and he’s awesome. Stop in, you won’t be disappointed. This will be my exclusive store from now on!
My Nikon D7200 didnt seem to be taking photos as well as I hoped. I found Competitive Cameras with tons of good reviews, and now I know why.I was impressed first with the steady stream of professional photographers in and out of the shop in the short time I was there. The service guys were straight business, got to the point quickly.When I picked my camera up, they explained, gently, that everything with my equipment was functionally fine, but that my lenses were sub level to my cameras capabilities. They made recommendations, changed some settings for me, and I was out the door with a clear understanding of the issues and how to remedy them.The price on the lens they recommended was in line with lots of other stores I later checked. I would think their prices overall are appropriate, and they seemed to have just about everything in stock.Theyve earned my future business for probably everything camera related.
Always the most professional experts in the business. Always go the extra mile to be helpful. Can’t thank you enough.
I love shopping for my pro camera gear at Competitive Cameras. Sales staffs like Eugene were pleasant and knowledgeable when I ordered my Sony lens and bodies over the phone with them recently. Shipping was fast and promptly packaged. I definitely will come back. Thanks!
These guys rock! If you have ANY camera needs, this is your place. They are quick with their service and unbeatable with their knowledge on cameras! I purchased my a6500 here and constantly come back for lens rentals because they are just that dynamic. It feels like I have a team that is there when I need them. Would definitely 10/10 recommend! Thanks guys!!
It was a good store, seem to have all the things you would want pertaining to photo and video.
Many thanks to Eugene, took a while but we finally got the Sony 600mmF4 in, stayed in his store probably an hour, had it by noon the next day in California. Outstanding service, same with the Sony A1, hit the store for maybe an hour, in California the next day.
Really great place with great people. I was helped immediately upon entering - I was trading in a lens and buying a used one. They gave me an assessment of my lens value and let me examine and test the lenses I was interested in. I was in and out in 15 minutes! Super friendly, super knowledgeable
Eugene helped me out with a camera lens today. He helped me with all my questions and he was quick (I was on my lunch break) Will be back!
The local store I go to for my backdrops.
I have been a customer of Competitive Cameras for many years now. I have always found them to be super helpful in meeting all my needs. Their pricing is always competitive and they almost always have the product Im looking for in stock. I wouldnt buy my camera gear anywhere else. These guys are great!
These guys know their business! Buy with confidence. They treat you with respect & fairness.
Had an awesome experience at this place and Eugene was very helpful. They didnt have in stock what I was looking for but, he helped me order it. Cant wait to receive it now!!!
I have been shopping at Competitive Cameras since the mid 1980’s, first at the Garland store and then their Irving Blvd. location. The original owner Ramsey and now Eugene provide the consistent professional service you expect from a family owned business. They have incredible product knowledge/expertise and will point you to the exact gear appropriate to your needs. Their inventory is vast and includes all of the latest equipment; they have had literally everything I’ve needed over the years in stock and at a great price.
Staff is always knowledgeable and helpful. I’ve had bad experiences ordering expensive gear from big box stores. I’ve never once had a bad experience here. Highly recommended.
You won’t find a more knowledgeable and helpful camera store in DFW. They will keep your gear in great shape. Quick, efficient, and excellent service. Highly recommend! Especially if you think your gear is beyond repair or that you have a lemon. It’s usually something simple they can fix quickly.
I have done business with Competitive Cameras for nearly twenty-five years, first with Ramsey when he was in Garland and now largely with Eugene. They have been consistently fair in their pricing and beyond professional in their sales and service. Both know what equipment I have, remember what Ive bought from them, and often know what I need better than I do. I trust their judgement to the point that when Ramsey or Eugene has set an item on the counter and told me that its the one I want, I just take their advice without question. Everyone in the store is matter-of-fact with their advice and recommendations and Ive never felt I was being sold - just helped. The entire crew is happy to help whether Im buying or just wanting to know how to improve my skills. I dont buy online and I no longer shop anywhere else.
Great place to find what you are needing in camera supplies
One of the best service companies I have ever dealt with. Their knowledge of the products they sell coupled with their knowledge of the photography industry is amazing and they are always on point to answer every question or solve any issue we have. Its never a thought to go to someone else when you already have the best support with Competitive Cameras.Shannon FordDouble T Photography
I have done business with Competitive Cameras for over twenty-five years, with Ramsey, before he was in Garland, when he was in Garland and now with Eugene back in Dallas. They have always been consistently fair in their pricing and beyond professional in their sales and service. Over the years I have not needed as much equipment since my initial investments in gear, but whenever I need something of substantial investment, they usually have it, at the price I want to pay.Everyone in the store is a pleasure to talk with, whether it about the current state of the photo industry, equipment comparision, or just what is going on around town and in their life at the time. Never any high pressure sales tactics from anyone. Everyone there makes you feel welcome, whether buying or just stopping to say hello. Great to have such a great camera store local to you that has all your needs or can get them in a shot time.
Everything I needed and well-informed staff that didnt waste my time or try to upsell me. Youre better off going here than ordering online, because you can actually handle the equipment before you buy.
On a recent trip from Houston to Oklahoma, I decided on a whim that I needed a new lens and I needed it now. While the wife drove, I did a quick google search and quickly found Competitive Cameras. As fast as I could I dialed their number and explained my situation to a gentleman by the name of Ramsey. We were still about an hour, or so out from the store and our eta had us arriving about 5-10 minutes after they closed. Ramsey stated that if we could make it within that timeframe, he would gladly keep the store open for us. True to his word, he did. I am fairly new to the camera world, but even so this is by far the best customer service I have ever received. I never thought living in a city as big as Houston that my go-to camera store would be located in Dallas. Thank you for everything, Ramsey.
Great staff and selection. Ive been coming here for a couple of years now, after coming in to buy the camera I thought I needed, but the owner listened to my requirements and recommended a much cheaper model that does everything I needed, and more. Its obvious to me that they care more about their customers than making a profit. I highly recommend these people for all of your photography and videography needs.
Each time my business partner and I visit this camera store we are always treated with great customer service. They also have great deals on all your video and photography equipment needs. We are constantly upgrading and purchasing new equipment and this has over the previous month become our favorite place to shop.
Glad there is still at least one real camera store left in DFW. These guys know their product well and can offer help at any level from beginner to pro. Definitely way better than relying on mail-order, Amazon or big box stores for your photography needs. Go here first before guessing what you might need online.
Ive used Competitive Cameras for over 15 years. Theyre just so good! I buy all my equipment from them. The staff has always been honest, helpful, and given me high quality advise...Their customer service is unmatched. (I frequently call in just to get their staffs opinion on new products!)
Excellent. A real camera store that you can buy local at!
Love this place! I had my camera stolen right before moving to Dallas. I came in for an upgrade, and the staff was able to give some great recommendations for the perfect equipment. I bought the body, lenses, bags, and tripod here and everything works great. Every time I come in, the staff is ridiculously helpful. Thinking about shopping online? Check out this store first, you wont regret it.
I love this place! Always willing to go above and beyond! I appreciate them so much! And so excited about my new tripod bag at an incredible price! Thanks again! 😁
First time visiting Competitive Cameras today. I walked in fully expecting to leave my gear and rent another. Eugene literally had my camera and video tip top and out the door in 10 minutes. My priority for the day was tackled with professionalism and extreme promptness. Im in awe and can say with certainty that Ill be back! Thanks Eugene!
By far the best camera store in the DFW area- If you want people who know their stuff AND have the best customer service around, then this is your place. Ive bought multiple cameras and lenses from them over the last 10 years and Eugene and the rest of the staff are always helpful and honest with their reccomendations rather than trying to be all sales-y which I appreciate. On top of that, if you have a problem with anything, they will literally walk you through fixing it ( and off of the ledge!) over the phone... the best!
This has become the only place I purchase camera gear from. I live in Kentucky and simply give them a call when I need a new piece of equipment. I shoot Fuji and they always have what I want in stock and get it shipped out immediately. Theyre knowledgeable, friendly and fast, and offer great prices and support. Thank you specifically to Eugene for being prompt and helpful. I will be a customer for as long as youre in business. -RyanUpdate: Every time I purchase new equipment I am reminded of how much I love Competitive Cameras. If I could give 6 stars, I would. Thanks again for being an incredible asset to our photography/videography business!
The staff here are very knowledgeable and always helpful in getting me what I need. Whether it is a camera, lens, or any other accessory for a project, I know I can always rely on these guys to get me going ASAP.
They can sometimes come off as know it all wise cracks, but theyre actually a really cool group of guys that seem to enjoy helping their customers. Im very glad to have a camera place for things like repairs and new cameras or gear, and their seamless background options are at a significant savings when compared to ordering from online retailers. Im a regular customer here ever since I heard about them.
Sad to say this place has poor business practices and potentially con artists. There were two large format photography papers that did not have a price on them (this shouldve been the first red flag) so I went over to the counter to ask the price and one was really high (He said about one hundred seventy something) which I slightly expected for this paper and another one which was a lot cheaper than I expected (about seventy something dollars) and after he told me the price I said Oh! I thought it was gonna be around $100 And he jokingly said $100 and we had a chuckle. I asked what all three together would be and he calculated it out, and said he gave me a break on it and BRIEFLY showed me the total. Turns out he changed the prices but didnt really change the overall price just to make it seem like he gave me a deal to gain my favor of this store. He brought the higher priced paper down to $169.95 and bumped up the cheaper paper to $80.00. Lemme say, before this stunt, the store already had my favor, but I dont appreciate the facade of generosity.
Eugene and Scott are alway willing to help and answer questions. They have sold me most of my equipment. My 6500, the sigma lens that goes on it. My Zeiss 85, (my other 2 lens came or the web) just this morning, I was able to be the first person in the entire state of Texas to own the new A7Riii. I could not have done it without them. They are my go to place for my photography needs.
Absolutely fantastic selection of products and super knowledgeable staff. I go here for any and ALL needs for my photography business. Cannot recommend them enough!
The only place I trust to buy camera gear in Texas.
I returned the equipment a day late, and they charged me the same price for three days.The sales representative(might be the owner) was very rude in person and on the phone. I drop thousands a year on equipment and one simple positive transaction could have resulted in more business. The representative was dismissive, seemingly annoyed with my questions and eager to get done with the transaction.Also, they reached out and asked me to change my review, claiming that I didn’t understand the term of the rental. I picked up the equipment on Saturday and was asked to return it by Monday at noon for $27. I wasn’t able to return the equipment by noon on Monday because of all the chaos surrounding the virus. I replaced the equipment Tuesday and was charged double(additional $27).Perhaps I did misunderstand the rental terms and was under the impression that I was renting the equipment for three days(Saturday - Monday), but that doesn’t change the behavior of the staff. Also, I found it super aggressive that they took the time to figure out who wrote the review, go to my business website, send an inquiry asking me to change my review. It’s just not a good vibe. I’ll take my future business elsewhere.
Amazing place. Great people. Unrivaled selection.
Scott and Eugene are always super helpful and knowledgeable, so glad to still have an actual camera gear shop in Dallas
Super helpful on the phone, visited and even more helpful in person. Eugene was knowledgeable and friendly.
Best camera store around that has top notch customer service, services and products! Eugene is the BEST!
Eugene is so knowledgeable and was so helpful in helping me find the best camera for my needs. Can’t recommend them enough. SHOP LOCAL!
This place is without a doubt the best camera shop in Dallas. Im so happy I purchased my camera here. Ive been in multiple times since with questions, and theyre always incredibly helpful. Eugene in particular is exceptional. Hes always so nice and patient. That would never happen at a Best Buy! This is the only store I will ever go to for camera equipment!
I absolutely love this place! I love that they are a local shop that I can go to and get the gear I need and my questions answered by experts in photography. Thank you Competitive Cameras for not only being competitive, but for being a strong company full of experience and a great shopping experience!
I will give Competitive Cameras this. They have a massive selection, and you can probably find what you need. But for some items, they quoted me prices that were higher than whats on the manufacturers website to buy directly. If you dont mind buying through Amazon or B&H, you can save almost literally half on some items. Not similar items. The exact same, brand new in the box item. When I balked at the prices, the guy seemed to change his friendliness factor quickly. They want rich people willing to spend too much on everything for the ease of having it all in one store. They dont get my vote!
This is a REAL camera store. Service is fantastic, even from across the country. I had been trying to obtain an impossible-to-get lens for 6 months and Eugene, at Competitive Camera, was able to do it when none of the big on-line dealers could. Price, service, communication, shipping, everything was as good as it could possibly be. Cant wait to actually visit the store. Thank you!
This place is so outstanding! I have been renting/purchasing gear from them for about 15 years and every experience has been phenomenal. The staff is informative, efficient and helpful. The prices are totally reasonable. I have not been steered wrong a single time!And if you are really lucky, you might show up on a day when they are sharing a sheet of fresh baklava with their customers! 😋 Love these folks!
A friend of mine Alex Phan recommended Competitive Cameras Ltd and Eugene when I was looking for my Sony A9II and 200-600. I called Eugene and he took my order and it was on the dock and here in one day, Texas to Illinois, holy cow no one has service like that. Then I called back for a 1.4 Sony extender and that came the same day also, heck thats even better than Amazon Prime. Best buying experience ever.
Superb service and expertise. Just about anything you want for the pro, the enthusiast and the beginner can be found here.In the five years or so that Ive been coming here, I have never been pressured to buy anything, my questions have been answered patiently and expertly, and I have never been disappointed with a purchase.
I recently had an equipment malfunction for an item purchased at the store. I called Eugene and the problem was resolved quickly and professionally. Great service and great help. Many Thanks
I came in on a Saturday when they were extremely busy. I was helped by Ramsey. He helped me pick a camera while being able to help at least 2-3 other people as well while I looked at the item I wanted to purchase. I never once felt ignored. All of my questions were answered. I left with so much knowledge, and I was extremely impressed with his customer service. I felt like I was buying my camera from a friend. I have always purchased previous items online because of cost/convenience. I won’t be doing that anymore. The interaction and guidance I received from him is priceless. This will be my go to store for all of my photography needs.
Eugene and staff offer stellar products, support and good old-fashioned customer service.One of my pro bodies was malfunctioning, they diagnosed the issue and will arrange a repair. They even offer rentals to support work flow during the repair.
My very first experience at Competitive Cameras was this past Saturday afternoon. I had a Sunday shoot and was in desperate need of a 32 bounce umbrella with black backing and white/silver interior. And wow was I amazed at their selection. In fact all the gear I had ever ordered elsewhere online was all stocked here! And the staff was super knowledgeable and helpful. From now on, Ill definitely be saving on time and shipping costs by shopping at Competitive. Cheers
This is the best store for first camera (me) and for people who have the expensive cameras and lenses. We upgraded my husbands Canon and bought lenses. He is absolutely happy.They ask lots of questions about what type of pictures you want to take to fit you with the best camera while also keeping in mind your budget.You might say it is too far to drive, it is not for the quality of service and the knowledge of the people who own the store.
I deeply appreciate the team at Competitive Cameras!! I have purchased equipment from there, as well as had gear repaired and cleaned with them. Every experience has had me leaving the store with a skip in my step. Over camera gear?? You bet! You could easily purchase camera equipment online without having to get in your car and fight traffic... But they add value to their product line by being trusted advisors who spend the time with you, steer you in the direction you need, give you the best deal possible, AND give you THEIR BEST POSSIBLE. I am a 10-year photography veteran and have never experienced this kind of customer service in a camera store in my life, and it is the same every single time.I recently went in with a lens that was not connecting to my camera. After a quick glance at the lens while I was standing there, they determined the problem and saw it was a quick fix... and took care of it within minutes! They couldve easily just bagged it and put it in their service lineup, not informing me of what an easy fix it was, and having me pay for the full repair. Not only was I able to walk out with my repaired lens after thinking I would be without it for 7-10 days, but they did they not charge me for their time! If possible, I will never do business with another camera distributor because this level of customer service is unmatchable in my opinion!
Absolute best place in Dallas to get your gear cleaned, fixed, looked at, etc. Why send it in when you can speak to someone in person? The guys at Competitive are very knowledgeable, helpful, and kind! 10/10 recommend this place.
Great staff, Great pricing and they even brought it to my house Ive wanted the camera that I purchased from them for the longest! Highly recommended doing your big purchases with them!
First time in an actual camera shop and it was a very good experience! I didnt catch the gentlemans name that helped me, but he was very knowledgeable and willing to teach me about the camera I purchased if needed. Whilst I was waiting to pay, another employee that was helping another lady was also very informative and respectful with his vernacular while she asked about particular cameras. All in all it was a great experience and I plan on doing more business with them seeing as how they are close to my work.
Amazing knowledgeable, attentive and funny staff. There’s is always someone there to help you when you’re looking for something. You can get lost in the mountains of gear, I know I have. I’ve bought and rented from them, their prices are fair and sometimes even better than online. Whether you’re a novice or a expert, THIS is the store to visit.
Great service, nice employees and very helpful
The staff is awesome, and very helpful. They are straight shooters that tell me exactly what I need, which is awesome being a newbie photographer. I greatly appreciate them, and Im glad I found them. Thank you!
Had an opportunity to buy a lens from CCL via Eugene. VERY responsive communications and timely delivery. Happy to do business with them again
I am very pleased to have recently discovered Competitive Cameras. Everyone is very knowledgeable, pleasant and very helpful while being respectful of the customers needs without any up selling. The amount of selection is impressive as are the prices, equivalent to Internet prices and on some products better. To have a source of equipment locally including actual feedback, recommendation and advice at great prices, as well as availability of rental equipment is invaluable. Thank you Eugene, Ramsey and Robert, I greatly appreciate your good-natured professionalism and patience.
The owner of this shop is amazing! He is the nicest man. He really cares for his staff and in my personal experience, his customers. I purchased a Canon 70D last year and the owner sold it to me for $100 less than what I could find on Amazon. And he said “I believe in you, you will take many great photos.” He also threw in a nifty 50mm for $50. I used the camera twice and then it sat in my house until 3 months ago.I took my camera with me home 🏡 to LA and a friend asked if I could take headshots. I immediately got online and for 48 hours straight took an online camera course and watched 20+ YouTube videos to learn my camera and how to shoot! Today, this is not only my passion but my business. I shoot every day and my clients range from family portraits to fashion photography. I recommend this establishment, not just because they are willing to work with you in proportion to your passion. But, they know their stuff and they truly are in it to help Photographers capture the best and create quality work.
I have been going to Competitive Cameras for well over 10 years. Eugene and the great staff have never let me down. Their advice has always been spot on. Now that there are fewer camera stores I really appreciate them even more, and much prefer a brick and mortar shop to big online stores. They have a very comprehensive inventory. I am really grateful for their presence in Dallas
Absolutely phenomenal staff. The guy who works there picked up my camera and instantly knew what was wrong with it. The fix was so easy and incredibly affordable!! I’ll definitely be back and recommend people here.
Very pleased with this camera shop! They were very helpful and accommodating. I was calling camera shops around the United States looking for a Nikon D850 and they had them! They shipped me the camera in 3 days. If youre looking for a D850 I believe they have a few left so give them a shout!
This has to be the best camera store in Dallas, TX. Whether youre renting or purchasing new equipment, they are the ones to rely on. Great customer service, strong knowledge of their products, and friendliness are what keep me coming back.
Always a great shopping experience. Staff is always knowledgeable and very willing to help. Will definitely recommend to others.
These people are friendly and extremely helpful. They went out of their way, way more than necessary, to make sure I was happy with what I was getting and had a positive experience.I would definitely recommend this shop for anyone.
Weve been going here for years and everyone who has ever helped us has expertly led us in what was right for us and our business, not what was right for them and their bottom line. They know their stuff and are always open about the best tech out there. I am a customer for life!
Ive been a customer of Competitive Cameras for many years and have always received excellent service. Eugene Jabbour has advised me on all my major lens and camera purchases, with great results. He always knows just the right option for my amateur uses, skill level, and budget. Eugene has a similarly good track record in helping me make gift purchases. He has an impeccable memory about camera features and can quickly and effectively provide a customized set of pros and cons for each purchase. Because of his personalized assistance and tremendous advise, Ill keep coming back for many more years.
This is why we have retail stores.As ubiquitous as the web is, nothing beats help in making decisions. Eugene and his staff excel at that while their pricing is the equal of Amazon’s – I check. It’s why I’ve bought seven camera bodies and too many lens to count at Competitive Camera.
I was looking for a specific Nikon lens, which is back ordered at every major camera store I checked, including Nikon itself. When researching on the Internet how long I may have to wait for a back ordered lens, a gentleman said that he got this lens rather quickly from Eugene at Competitive Cameras in June 2019. A second gentleman also said he got one quickly from Competitive Cameras in August 2019. So I emailed Eugene to get on their wait list for this lens. I was shocked when he immediately returned my email to say they actually had one in stock. Eugene had the lens sent UPS 2 day aIr and I had my news lens much quicker than I ever dreamed. His price was the exact same price quoted everywhere else, but with free shipping and no sales tax. I highly recommend this shop for quick and professional service.
I came from New York to work with a client on a video project and Im lucky to have considered Competitive Cameras as my go to. Eugene was the consummate professional in assisting me with all my video needs! He was quick, and on point about everything I would need for my job assignment. I have a few more trips to the client site in Dallas and I will definitely be going back to Competitive Cameras.
Im sorry there is no way to give them 6 stars. Fantastic customer service. I explained my problem-going to the arctic in a few weeks to photograph polar bears. I needed a special impossible to get lens on short notice-they got it for me. Im knowledgeable about my photo needs so a quick online order is easy. But online cant give this kind of service so I will buy everything I can from competitive, because they are more than competitive, they are superb. And they have a large, large stock to boot and fun store to browse for all those little accessories that every photo bug just cant do without.
All three of my trips here so far have been great. Scott and Eugene we’re both extremely helpful and even sat and explained some thing to me that I had questions about. They easily could have given me a quick answer but they took the time to really help me learn and understand. All of the gear I have purchased and rented from here has been great- I haven’t had any issues. They will continue to get all of my camera business!
In my opinion, Competitive Cameras is the best place to buy photography equipment in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. I have purchased my cameras, lenses, and related products from them for years and have enjoyed doing business with the owners who are knowledgeable, trustworthy, and personable. They know their products very well, and they know their customers by name. I appreciate that. I also appreciate that they will not sell you more than you need. They are in the business of establishing trusted relationships with their customers by selling quality products with honesty and integrity. I wish all businesses served their customers as well as Competitive Cameras.
This is a great company to buy from. They are very knowledgeable and helpful. I recently called them from my office in Plano about a lens. They said they had it in stock and would courier it to me. I was not in a rush, but in todays times of getting things the same day and overnight, it was refreshing they offered to deliver it to me at no charge. It was here in 2 hours! Great Service!
Great service! Super helpful when buying first camera from them.
Professional service. Very knowledgeable staff. Took care of servicing some cameras for me one day before a shoot. Rental equipment is a very helpful feature. The only camera shop I will use in Dallas. This is a good example of a brick and mortar successfully competing with online.
Theyre great! We have been renting gear since we started our photography business and we love working with them. They know us personally, and are always so helpful - we just keep going back!
Great store, very knowledgeable staff. They always have what I need at very competitive prices. As a professional photographer, I rent and buy equipment from this store all the time. I would definitely recommend them over online stores for purchases and rentals. Great resource for my business!
My favorite place to rent lenses and get my equipment cleaned. They have great customer service and are fast and reliable!
They are just amazing. They know their stuff and I have called them multiple times over the last year in a pinch. They have truly advised me as I grow my photography business. Very very knowledgeable!
From the moment I walked in, I felt very welcomed by the sales staff. They are very helpful and knowledgeable about both camera and video equipment. They are very honest, down to earth people and never try to over sell you on purchasing equipment. When I’ve had an indoor shoot and needed some guidance with lighting, the sales staff member offered advice on several solutions to help me improve my results. So happy this place exist!
I’ve been coming to competitive for nearly ten years and without a doubt these guys are the most helpful and experienced in DFW. If they can’t fix my problem, they know someone who can and are happy to refer you. They even had my film camera that I thought was toast repaired and fully functioning in less than an hour. I’ll be a customer here for years to come.
