I ordered the Fujifilm XT-5 with 16mm-50mm lens online after first discussing options in the store in Exeter. The camera was delivered promptly and without fuss and trying the various products in the store itself was very helpful. Overall I am very pleased with the purchase, the product and the experience itself.
arrived promptly and as described
arrived promptly and as described, what more can you ask?
Good experience…
Whole process was efficient and painless. Delivery was next day and condition of used camera and lens bought was just as described...as new. Wouldn't hesitate to use again based on this experience.

Great communication and very helpful staff. Excellent!
Excellent service
I wanted to try out a couple of lenses on my camera, one of which the Exeter branch had in stock and the other not. They sourced the second for me and could not have been more helpful. This is customer service as it should be. Excellent product range, competitive prices and great service. I am very impressed.
Delivery problems.
I purchased a Canon PRP-310 printer at 2.30pm on a Thursday afternoon, I realised that I was close to to the time limit for next day delivery but all of the correspondence indicated that I would get the next day delivery. However the printer was eventually delivered on Monday. The box was clearly damaged and had been sealed with a tape with the message 'repaired by DPD'. The printer was not damaged. and deserves Five stars.

Camera arrived well packaged and slightly ahead of time. Good price for the bundle.
Excellent service from Jason and Ben!
Excellent service from Jason and Ben!
Purchased from this shop to obtain a genuine Panasonic UK warranty rather than an online 'import' that looked like a UK purchase.
After experiencing a problem with the camera it was replaced without quibble!
Highly recommended.
Excellent service.
Speedy delivery and excellent support.
Speedy delivery - well packed.
Very helpful when I called about an issue with claimback.
Great service again
There aren't many, if any, decent photographic shops where I live so I usually end up with a bit of a shopping list when in the UK, and it's always a pleasure to deal with LCE. Communication is good and delivery reliable and quick.

The Exeter branch provided an accurate description of a used Canon EF 50mm 1.4 lens, with a very competitive price and speedy delivery.
LCE has been my first first choice for buying used Canon gear for several years now.
On the one occasion when a product disappointed there was a speedy no quibble refund, which is a good test of customer care.

I recently made a purchase from London Camera Exchange on a used lens.
The overall experience was great from start to finish.
Once I had placed my order I received emails telling me the progress of the order.
I also received a telephone call from LCE thanking me for my order and explaining parcel tracking details.
The lens arrived on time as described on the website which made the whole experience faultless.
I would recommend LCE and will be using them again.
