Great service
I decided to reaquaint myself with a previous hobby of photography. Having done some research on entry level cameras, I settled on a Sony a6400. I chose to purchase it online from the London Camera Exchange. I've got to say the communication was fantastic. I received update emails every step of the way. The camera arrived the next working day following me submitting my order and was well packaged. I would certainly use LCE for any future photographic requirements.

LCE is my favourite place to get lenses
LCE is my favourite place to get camera equipment secondhand. It’s always the best prices and the quality is as described. It’s a bit scary buying secondhand lenses over the internet because you can’t fully see how good it “really is”. Every time I’ve bought from them with quality described as “excellent” it truly is. Can’t find any flaws with the glass. It arrives the next day when ordered before 1pm, and it usually comes earlier than expected. Delivery often says 5-6pm but it has arrived in the morning more often.
