We had an awesome experience in the store. We went in looking for a camera for a 14 year old that is interested in photography. We found they had used equipment and were able to purchase a very reasonably priced camera with all the accessories for less than a new camera. The staff was VERY knowledgeable and didnt try to sell us the most expensive items in the store. I would highly recommend this store as a wonderful local business!
They go above and beyond! Sito helped me with a jammed lens at no charge. Thank you!!They’re always helpful, kind and extremely knowledgeable. Love to shop local and support our community.
Needed a lens for my Nikon d610 but didnt have more than $800 to spend at the time. They had a Tamron 35-150 that fits the bill rather well. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Would much rather do business with a local brick and mortar than one of the mega internet companies. Will definitely be going back for future purchases.
Absolutely recommend this place! Their knowledge is top notch, and most importantly, their service is outstanding! I cannot express my gratitude for the friendly and helpful service Ive had each time I shop here. Thank you Sito!
Quick and great service.. Sito was super helpful and knowledgeable when it came to the repair of one of our cameras. If and when we have a problem in the future OPS will be the ones who will solve it!Thanks again,Dom Green
The customer service is the best! They always go above and beyond and are very knowledgeable. Shop local!
OP Photo Supply Prices for Canon Cameras & Lenses are equal to, or less than, the Prices on AMAZON, B&H Photo, Adorama etcIt appears that theyre even more Competitive on the Lens Prices than those of the Big Box Stores.(Im from NYC, so I have Personally shopped at the big NYC Camera Stores. B&H Photo actually takes up a whole NYC City Block.)
Helped me problem solve a big spot. Diagnosed the issues (huge spot), got me the tools, and most importantly walked me through the steps of how to clean it appropriately without smears or damage. Worked perfectly. Thanks!
Ive been shopping here for several years and always been happy. They have an amazing selection of gear...Im always surprised by how much they fit into the shop. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful and able to answer any questions. Camera stores are harder to find these days, so its great to have such a great store that is local.
Called to see if they work on Nikon cameras. The lady I spoke with was very helpful and friendly. Have me some helpful tips to try and said they’d be happy to diagnose possibly what might be wrong with it. Appreciate the helpful advice and friendly service.
They are very knowledgeable and helpful. They have a little bit of everything for cameras. Even some used equipment if you cant afford the name brand stuff. I recommend this store for any of your camera needs.
Incredibly helpful and has an incredible selection of accessories. Love the used selection as well.
Great place for finding what you want for photography. They seem to have a little bit of everything you might need. The customer service is excellent, very friendly answered all my questions and took the time to show me a few things around the store. Definitely plan to make this place my photo supply store as long as I live around this area.
Excellent customer service. One stop shopping for all your digital and film camera needs. Great knowledgeable staff! Highly recommended!
Great store, very knowledgeable amd friendly staff. Found what i needed and more
Very knowledgeable folks and very helpful. Whether buying, selling, trading, seeking info, this is a local gem.
Overland Photo offers the best photography classes! Just went to my second class given by Sito. He freely imparts a great deal of knowledge, wisdom, and creativity along with slide presentations and handouts. He has already helped me improve my photography skills and I cant wait for the next set of classes! I highly recommend the knowledgeable staff and if you want to improve your photos from ordinary to extraordinary - this shop/classes are for you.
Camera stores are hard to find these days. This store has a little bit of everything to please beginners to seasoned professionals. They have knowledgeable staff the prices are pretty decent.
I came in yesterday to look at telephoto lenses. I am not a experienced photographer at all. What a wonderful and extremely helpful and informative experience you presented. I bought the Sigma 150-600mm for my Canon. You can be certain I will be back time and time again.I just went up to Loess Bluffs Wildlife Refuge to play with this new lens. Thanks to the young lady (sorry I don’t know her name) she showed me the features and advantages that I used today. I came back with some great photos!I will be recommending your shop at any and every opportunity! Thank you ! Thank you! THANK YOU!I’ll be back! Soon! Because of the great customer service.
I called about possibly having some repair work done to my Nikon D90, but they arent able to service that model. That being said, the gentleman that answered the phone was very polite and helpful. He did give me a couple of things to try and see if it might correct my problem. Definitely recommend the store based on my interaction!
Great shop friendly people. Unfortunately they only do Canon and Nikon only, so cant support local to buy my Fujifilm cameras and supplies, but definitely would! Good luck OPS, Ill definitely drop by if I need accessories.
Very helpful they offer to update my Sony G lens firmware for free.
Great service and selection and price.
My go-to place for photography ever since they were at their old location further south.Great selection, super helpful, Bart seems serious but he’s a super cool cat.Support local!
I am by no means a professional photographer, I do it for fun but went into this store had the kindest, most encouraging workers that helped guide me in this field. They really took their time to work with me, talk me through my camera issues and help provide feedback to how to get better pictures without spending money! It was all about me as a person not just a customer in the store. We talked for a good 30-40 minutes. I felt so comfortable and really excited to get back out there and try again! Josh and Sito were miracle workers and I just feel so lucky to have bumped into them. This store cares and I won’t go anywhere else! Thank you so much y’all!
This place is awesome and the last photo supply store in the metro area people are resourceful and they wear their mask.
I really like this store. The staff are friendly but not pushy, they know their products, and I dont feel like theyre trying to upsell things I dont need. They have a good selection of most of the equipment you could want, including lenses, bodies, backdrops, lighting supplies, tripods, packs, and darkroom supplies (black and white only).
Great customer service, no hard selling. Sito was very helpful and offered to further help me by looking at some images when I can get back in there with my computer.
This place has everything a photographer needs and helpful, courteous staff.
I have been shopping at Overland Photo Supply for the past 3+ years. Being a business owner myself I have always been thoroughly impressed with the level of professionalism and overall friendliness received each time I visit. The staff not only takes time to learn about your needs yet also educate you about the pros and cons for each purchase. Having the ability to talk to a person face-to-face is hard to replace. I also like supporting locally-owned businesses. Thank you Patty, Sito and team!
Great staff, good selection, but sadly no Fujifilm gear, meaning I only shop for accessories there, and check out the used gear for deals(sometimes have KILLER old stuff in there!)
Friendly staff, very helpful, nice selection of equipment.
Sito is the BEST! He is knowledgeable and generous with his time and talents. He chose true customer service over pushing quick product solutions my way. I strongly recommend Overland Photo Supply. Lets support KCs last photography store!
The best customer service! Helpful and knowledgeable
Seems to be the only source of Kodak film this side of State Line. Nice selection of darkroom equipment.
Great place full of all the photo gear you need and advice.
Prices a lil high, staff was very helpful & curious.I would come back.
I came in super frustrated over my Sony a6000. It would not display photos on my memory card and the wifi connection/app was glitching between the camera and my phone. The professionals at Overland Photo Supply helped solve all the issues and gave plenty of time and information so I could troubleshoot this on my own if it ever happened again. I am so so pleased that they were able to solve the issues- not just with my camera but helped me understand the navigation on my own phone. They were so kind- definitely gained a lifelong customer!
Very knowledgeable and friendly. I buy everything from here vs. online because they provide so much insight and help with getting the most out of your equipment. It really is invaluable! Thank you!
Good variety, glad they have video supplies as well. Also glad to see used items available and vintage lenses. Will definitely be a returning customer
We are fairly new to Kansas and LOVED the kindness we received from Overland Photo Supply! My camera needs attention and they kindly directed me to a shop in Kansas. While they could have just said they do not repair cameras - THEY WENT THE EXTRA MILE! Kudos to OPSInc!
Ive picked up a few products from Overland Photo before and have always been impressed with the knowledge that the employees have and the extensive variety of products to choose from. That alone is 5 star worthy.But my recent experience here left me compelled to write about the outstanding customer service that this sop provides. I had been having serious issues with my Canon camera and mic set up. Canon customer service wouldnt help me, and getting ahold of the mic manufacturers was proving to be difficult. Knowing how knowledgable the staff at Overland Photo are, I took my camera in for help since I was out of ideas.Sito was incredibly kind and patient. It took nearly an hour to get things up and running, but he was never rude or cut corners. Ive experienced less than kind customer service at other supply shops, and it can really make a person hesitant to reach out for help. Not the case here. After much testing and looking for solutions, the problem was solved and my camera was functioning like it should! I was thrilled since I had really been at my wits end trying to figure everything out.As a result, Im a customer for life!
Great selection of anything and everything camera related. I needed some batteries for my Nikon D5500, and ended up shopping some of their used products also. Very sweet people and a great stop on our way through Kansas City.
This is one of the best camera shops in the Midwest. Knowledgeable in all camera makes & models, they are true experts.. Everyone there shot film first & it shows. I always learn something. I just purchased a Nikkor 70-200 2.8 VRII from their used section & it is stellar. Drop in once & you will be back.
This is THE Kansas City photography shop and its the only place I go for digital AND film gear. Not only do they carry everything I need, they know all there is to know about it. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, as well as honest. If you come in looking for something you dont really need, they will tell you. I cant speak highly enough of this place.
Last legit photography store in KC metro? Love this place. Unfortunately I have so much stuff I dont get to come here often 😆. They are always very helpful, same faces have been there for years. Great variety of camera brands to choose from. Also some film photography gear if you are old school like me!Call them up if you have questions!
This whole store is my wish list!! All of the workers have the best Patience, Are very knowledgeable.
This is a great Camera Shop! Big shout out to Sito Colon who helped reset camera settings so my lens and camera body could function properly. I received a used camera with lenses. There were several settings that gave an error message and prevented both photos as well as autofocus. I had put several hours into trying to resolve the problem at home and he found the several step solution in about 15 minutes. I really appreciated the help!
Picked up a new tripod today. Price seemed fair. Sales help was very attentive and helpful. This is a one stop shop, they should have most anything you might want. Seems ironic somehow that I dont have any pictures to attach...
Nice folks. Very helpful!
Great store. Wife loves to go there everytime we are in town. Staff is wondering.
Always helpful and nice.
Stopped in on a terribly snow/ice day to find friendly staff willing to answer the few questions I had. Couldnt really tell how bad the streets were with the amount of people in there. Awesome shop!
Great place to purchase cameras has everything you need very friendly people they are very helpful with what ever you need
These folks are the Best Ever!! Always Friendly, even when busy. Always as helpful as they can possibly be. Great Selection of EVERTHING!!! I have Never left Disappointed. I had a SUPER Stuck Lens Filter, and after some time, they got it off for me, no charge... I dont know where Id be, without these Great people. I am Blessed to have them almost within walking distance of our home... Thank you Guys....YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!
Im from out of town, and the guys here were able to hook me up and answer all my questions. I had an issue with my card and they were patient and helpful.
Kansas City spot for photography and photographers who need gear, help on setup and explaining how-to, or just friendly faces who welcome you into their store. All the staff a trained in photography as photographers but are likened to old friends or someone to help when the camera or gear does not work like you thought. Lots of choices to choose from, great prices, and service that you can appreciate year after year.
We had a great time with Sito and the boys. Good experience and great customer service! We will be back.
Super friendly staff. Very helpful, not a repair shop but they helped me out anyway :)
I dropped my digital camera and bent the lens cover and while It was a simple fix, most people wouldnt touch it. The guy here took care of it no hesitation and no charge. They really know cameras and all things photography! Great store, great staff.
I am so grateful for all the help I received today, I have been to a few different places trying to find out what was wrong with my camera (I am not familiar with camera settings in depth) but I came into Overland Photo Supply today and Sito went above and beyond my expectations. Completely fixed my issue and my camera is now taking beautiful pictures better than it ever has, he also explained to me what he did to fix my issue so I now know how to properly correct issues in the future if they ever come up! I will definitely be going to one of their photography classes on November 13th to learn more and I would encourage anyone else to do so as well!
Went in with a Nikon D5100 that would not take pictures. Sito looked at it got it fixed in the space of five minutes. Asked how much and he said this review was my payment. Saved me $200 bucks and earned a client for life. Simply outstanding!
My camera had a hair on the sensor and was ruining all my pics. I took it in for a cleaning which would have cost close to $70. After the staff assessed the situation, fixed it for FREE after working a good 15 minutes carefully removing the obstruction. Super enthusiastic about cameras and all things associated, as well as their customers. KUDOS!
Great customer service.
I had a small issue with my camera, so I called and they told me to come in. They helped me fix the issue. The staff is very friendly and extremely helpful. Their selection is very nice as well.
This is a gem! A real full line photography store with a comprehensive inventory and truly knowledgeable staff. You can get your questions answered, share expertise, and talk with an actual person about your concerns. Cant get close to their great service in todays online environment! Prices are very good, too.
Best place in town to get anything camera related. Bought 2 camera straps and they took their time to put them on my cameras for a piece of mind. Employees go extra mile on customer service and have good stock of equipment. My go to place. Thank you OP photo supply!!
I have never purchased from this store but have been there a couple of times with issues with my cameras purchased previously from another store. This did not make any difference. They are always very helpful and were successful in resolving my problems. I will definitely buy my next camera from them.
A great location for camera gear in the KC area. The staff is knowledgeable if not very talkative. I have been there several times and have yet to get a consistent interaction. Despite that I still prefer being able to handle gear before buying it and I think supporting a local store is important.
Excellent staff. Very helpful and patient. I come here from Columbia,MO (2 hours away) for my needs! Check them out! You will be happy you did!
I called trying to buy a replacement lens for my Fuji s1000 (for my daughter to play with before spending $$ on a serious slr camera). He complimented the camera, but explained to me why it wont take a replacement lens. He was also very helpful in pointing me towards a quality camera rental place nearby to achieve the same end.Bottom line: he was very helpful and spent time with me even after it became clear I would not be making a purchase. His only pitch: If you ever need any photo supplies or decide to purchase a camera, please come see us.I will!
Ive been going to this store for almost 20 years. They have a huge inventory and are knowledgable about most things related to photography and video. The staff is friendly, professional, attentive, and helpful but dont hound or follow you as you explore.Their prices are comparable to what one can find online and I often shop there because the prices are so competitive. Kansas City is lucky to have a store of this caliber.
Every trip to Overland Photo is a learning experience in one way or another. Bart, Patty & co are always very courteous and helpful. Their collective knowledge of photography and the products they sell make it my go-to place for gear and supplies. I like having such a great resource locally. I would rather deal with them than some East-coast web site any day!!
Super helpful employees. All are very knowledgeable and won’t try to sell you stuff you don’t need unless you ask them to! Some things are priced higher than online, but not so much as to not shop local. It’s the only camera shop in the city! Let’s keep it open!
I had a problem with my point and shoot camera and the staff on Saturday was very helpful explaining what the issue was. They were able to give me a nice band-aid fix which will help me decide if the issue is terminal. No pressure to buy, they just have a passion for all things cameras! Totally recommend!
Best spot in Kansas City for all of your digital, equipment, and film needs. Years of elite photo and video knowledge coupled with an excellent stock of in-store inventory makes this a one-stop shop.
I have done business with the owners for nearly 30 years going back to when they worked at J&J Camera. They are very knowledgeable and great to work with. A beautiful store with great selection and sadly the last of its kind in this area.
Called about a repair issue, and even though they do not offer that service anymore because the repair man retired, the gentlemen on the phone went above and beyond assisting me in trouble shooting. We went back and forth with questions and offered solutions for a good solid while. Even offered a recommendation on a good repair shop in the greater KC area. In the end, he indicated to call for any questions, if it helps you save a dollar. The kindness and assistance was truly heartwarming. They didnt have to help me; could have simply said, No, we dont do that anymore and hang up like most other businesses. But even though they were not making an immediate dime, they still treated me like I threw down a thousand in their store. I will definitely be in soon and want to let people know how great they are at customer service. I am a small business owner myself and hope to achieve that level of care in each client at the end of the day.
The friendliest staff! Great knowledge of gear and always ready to help.
Theres really no other place I would go for my photography needs! Sito is great he assisted me with my first camera & lens and has helped me since. Highly recommend everyone to pay them a visit you wont be disappointed!
Fast and friendly service. Knew what they were doing. Also up to date.
Beyond a doubt one of the best photography companies around. I’m an avid amazon consumer, doing what I can to get the best deal for what I need. BUT there are times when amazon just wont cut it.I’m an out of towner, working an event at the WWI war museum, taking celebrity photo ops. I was running out of paper and still needed enough paper for the following day. I called OPS and spoke with Sito, two minutes before they closed, and told him my situation. He was generous enough to work after hours to allow me to pick the needed paper up.THIS is the reason to continue to shop actual stores. For the customer experience, for the knowledge they can bestow, and for the compassion in times of need.Thanks OPS and thank you Sito! You now have a returning client!Andi NorwichThistle Do Nicely Shop
This place has top notch customer service. Each time we have come in for a camera repair or question, they are eager to help in any way they can. I would highly recommend this place for anything photography related.
Fantastic service. This is one of few real camer shops left in the KC area. I highly recommend this business.
Locally owned photography/video store. Super helpful in determining which products are the best fit for your upcoming shoot. Well-staffed so you dont have to worry about waiting for them to finish with someone else prior to answering your questions.
Friendly helpful service with a good selection of new and used gear. Support your local camera store! Their prices on NEW Canon lenses are less than the used / refurbished lenses on the Canon website. Superior service, great education on whats needed -- and whats not. I will continue to do business here for the best price and selection.
Super nice inside, able to help with no issues, they also buy used cameras which was nice to be able to email them first then walk in with the camera that I wanted to sell. Still waiting for the answer but Ill give it a couple of days....
I try to buy things from this store as often as possible because its one of the few camera stores left in operation. Honestly the prices are a little high on just about everything, but they do have a large selection and if you need something fast its helpful to have them around. Supporting local businesses can be more expensive, but it is nice to know your dollars help your community.
Honestly saying, this is the best photo supply store in the Kansas City area. The staff know what they are talking about, and are extremely helpful and knowledgeable.They will never pressure you in to buying what they want you to buy.If you looking for the latest equipment, and even some that you just cannot locate anymore, at pricing that is right on the mark, give them a call or stop by and check this place out. I am sure glad that I did!
Lots of stuff, helpful low-pressure staff.
Today I met Sito Colon regarding an issue with my camera. It would not turn on. Sito quickly determined that the battery was defective, then he offered to charge my spare battery. This is not the only time that Overland Photo has been so helpful! Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jim
The folks that work at Overland Photo Supply are always well informed and eager to explain how a product works. I visited recently and couldnt be happier with the speedlight accessories I needed for a senior photos session--the client was stoked with the results; see attached.I also must commend their staff (one gentleman in particular) for being honest and literally saving me money. As I was leaving the parking lot, I heard a shout coming from the storefront. Once I looped back around, an upstanding OPS team member handed me $40 that had fallen to the floor as I was checking out. Thanks again for always being a place I can count on!
Great store! Knowledgeable staff...Patient with newbies... Prices are competitive. Allows you to try before you buy.
As a professional photographer, Overland Photo Supply has been my go to place for many year. The inventory is very complete and made it difficult to browse in their old location. But, theyve move to a bigger, more accessible location not far from the old place. If you havent been there in a while, you should stop by.Ive always found the staff knowledgeable and eager to help.
Got everything here and they were real knowledgeable about everything.
It’s so great to have a local camera store to go in to to look at cameras and equipment. Every single employee is very knowledgeable and kind!
Extremely helpful and knowledgeable staff; especially Cito.Great selection of equipment for photographers.Definitely want to visit this place when you have a chance.I travel for work as a photographer, I know when Im in town, theyll have what I need.
