Great value on a wide selection of lenses and cameras. The best place on the net. I was a little bit worried at the beginning because of the prices compared to Italian market. Communication was wonder... See more

Brilliant online camera store
Superb company, great service and prices. Quick delivery via dpd. Highly recommended for camera equipment.
Great service.......Great prices
Ordered a new "long" lens for my Canon EOS after searching the Internet for a good price. I was pleasantly surprised with the price offered and with the service I received. The product arrived within the quoted timescale in perfect condition even though I was concerned when DPD delivered it in a damaged box, luckily thanks to expert packaging the actual box containing the lens was untouched. Originally I was a bit apprehensive about ordering from a company I hadn't heard of but after reading the reviews I was reassured and I would recommend anyone looking for camera gear at a great price to give them a go !!
First class
First class. I will definately be using Cotswold again. Great prices, they keep you informed throughout, delivery well within my expectations.
Good Price but Delivery takes a while.
I was pleased to find the camera I was searching for at a very good discounted price. Of course there are compromises when you get such a saving and in this case it was delivery time. This was no "next day" Amazon style service, with a 10 day or so promised delivery. There was a mix up (at my end) with payment and I was disappointed that it wasn't possible to telephone to resolve it. However, we communicated by email and the problem was fixed. Delivery was made within the specified time.
Overall I would love better communication, rather than waiting for a response to an email, but at that price I have no real complaints. I'm happy to recommend them.

Ordered Canon R6 MK3 on sale. Best price in the UK.

I will definitely use them again for future purchases.
Absolute spot on customer service
Absolute spot on customer service. Reply to email query quickly. Items sent in good time. Lenses and camera perfect working order after over a year.
Great value buying a lens from Cotswold…
Great value buying a lens from Cotswold Cameras, lowest price I could find on the internet. The brand new lens arrived within the 10-14 working days delivery promised.
No issues with courier and the item was well packed and delivered to EU address without a problem.
The customer service was excellent and very helpful, replying to questions within 24 hours.
All very satisfactory and would use again
It can always be a bit unnerving…But no need to be
It can always be a bit unnerving ordering nowadays when you see a good price. But I had a great experience with Cotswold Camera, the communication was great as I had a couple of issues on my side, the delivery was as promised and tracking was perfect.
I wouldn’t hesitate to order again
Excellent price and early delivery.
I ordered an OM5 MkII with 14-150mm lens, my third purchase from Cotswold Cameras. The delivery date range spanned a period when we’d be away. So, I asked if the delivery could be delayed to ensure we would be in to receive the delivery. Cotswold replied “ no problem”. Much to my pleasant surprise, Cotswold sent the kit by Royal Mail Special Delivery to arrive well before our trip. Excellent, professional service. Thank you.
Great value and service
Another great experience with Cotswold Cameras.
Camera and lens arrived just into the expected time envelope, registered with OM Systems for the extended warranty.
What a camera the OM-3 is. I've barely scratched the surface figuratively speaking, but already loving the built in ND filters. The quality of photos are fantastic, matched with the 12-45mm I am really impressed with the sensor.
Sold my Canon 6D mk2 and really wasn't convinced I was doing the right thing.
I am now.
Pounds saved …
An excellent price compared with other retailers and rrp.
A good email conversation with David because their website wasn’t showing Sony products. He gave me a direct link to purchase x2 teleconverter.
I’ve not used it yet but hope to soon.
Excellent service
Excellent service. Great communication and outstanding prices. Well done all round.
Absolutely brilliant service provided…
Absolutely brilliant service provided by David, camera purchased at last minute before a trip and David assisted with arranging a swift delivery which actually saw the camera arrive a day before expected. Best pricing on the market too - will be back to purchase again ! 5 star service

Cotswold Cameras have provided superb customer service throughout my buying process. When I was deciding on what camera to purchase I made many enquiries to Cotswold Cameras seeking information and advice. I can say without hesitation that all my questions and enquiries where dealt with professionally and promptly. I am hugely impressed with Cotswold Cameras, the staff are superb. I will not hesitate to buy from them again.

Was a bit apprehensive about purchasing through Cotswold Cameras but have to say everything went as hoped and to their promise.

Would buy again from them and many thanks to them for saving me a fair bit of cash.

Bought several times from them
Bought several times from them, its always a pleasure doing business with them. Great prices quality cameras etc with spot on delivery within the time scales they say. I always go to David for advice before i buy hes always very fair and knowledgeable.
I must add great warranty too.
Great experience purchasing my new lens.
Great experience purchasing through this company, the delivery service was really quick and the price was fantastic for a brand new lens. I’m sure I’ll be back to buy something else soon, many thanks.
Glad to have taken the punt!
Read the reviews and took what felt like the plunge but turned out really well.
Order confirmation and updates were good and communication with David at cotswold cameras was quick and helpful.
Had a bit of a delay getting the parcel from DPD but that’s not Cotswold’s fault, and when I did get it everything was packaged well - seal broken on the box as advertised on the site for quality checks, but everything in great working order and for a fraction of the price of other sellers.
Will definitely be using again for my next purchase, order was out for delivery after 8 working days and ended up receiving it within 2 weeks of order date.
