Wellington Photographic Supplies reviews
53Had 3 images merged into one and the team were very considerate in taking quality care of my original images and producing samples prior to sending through the final image of high specs for a memorial. Will 100% be using them again in the future.
Highly recommend these guys' knowledge and services. I had some photographic work, in poor condition, expertly restored for a commercial framing project. I'm am Mana Picture Framing and the quality of my finished product needs to be the best. The images below are from the original frame, to the newly presented frame. The photo bares no resemblance to the newly restored photo. Very happy.
Great advice received about digital camera storage solutions. Appreciate the detailed explanation. Thanks!
Staff were very knowledgeable and keen to help - didn't make me feel ignorant because I'd forgotten much of what I used to know. Expensive to get our old manual camera serviced and repaired, but that's standard with expert services for a fading technology. Down to earth realistic advice, and all the peripheral gear we needed in stock. Definitely recommend - but save up first.
They're always helpful. They know their products. And help solve photographic problems that arise.
Great service, friendly and helpful staff. Always happy to advise, never pushy with sales and fair prices for trade ins.
Been in 3x the past month weighing up my options. Staff have been really helpful. Was willing to spend the extra money to shop here as they don’t talk down to me as a woman who’s not super technical as I’ve experienced at other photography stores in Wellington. They explain everything in depth in a way anyone can understand.
Very happy with the consistency of how good and quick their lab services are. Jacob and his team have been developing my films for years now - turnover time has always been prompt and quality maintained. Keep up the good work!
I needed to get my camera sensor cleaned and was recommended this place. I couldn't be happier with how it came out, looks brand new again. Always a fear leaving your camera gear in someone else's hands, but I wouldn't hesitate to go back. I would definitely recommend these guys!
Exceptional work! I appreciate Phil's efforts in converting 9 Hi8 home video tapes to USB. It was a significant job because four of the tapes had snapped (unknown to us) and Phil repaired them. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Friendly and knowledgeable staff here. Glad to have found a local store that's pretty well stocked, even had this phottix boom/stand which normally has to be ordered online. Make sure to support your local stores else you'll miss them when they're gone.
Had a wonderful experience at WPS, and was well looked after by the Staff there. Rupert did an excellent job on cleaning my cameras sensor and two lens which went in pretty grubby but came out so much cleaner, he also took the time to explain my lay questions and not make me feel like an idiot for asking them…cheers guys, customer for life here
The guys are all very knowledgeable and helpful. A great new site with lots of equipment for the amateur through to the professional. I would highly recommend them.
Great advice re dust inside my camera lens and these guys are pretty quick when turning around your gear after cleaning.
Friendly. Knowledgeable. Fantastic.
Great service, was able to help us get what we needed and they have a large range of products for all needs.
The staff are helpful and friendly. And their photography museum at the front of the store is super cool! I really wish they stocked Leica, particularly M mount lenses as I'd prefer to give them my business due to their great customer service. Also, please sort out your website so that it is easier to purchase online.
Over the last ten or so years we’ve bought several cameras from WPS. We have always had great service, good advice, and no pressure to buy, and there’s no trying to push us into more expensive options.
We recently bought a rather expensive pair of binoculars. I had lots of emails with a nice young man named Liam, offering me some very good advice and suggestions. They didn’t have the pair that I was interested in stock (Fujinon 14x40 TSX1440) in stock, but arranged to get a sample in for us to look at. We were very impressed so ordered a pair and they arrived within a couple of days.
We are VERY impressed with the binoculars. They bring things so close, and they have a built in stabiliser which makes it great for those of us with shaky hands. They are definitely not cheap, but like everything in life, you tend to get what you pay for.
Liam was very helpful and patient with us. We highly recommend WPS for any camera/binocular etc related needs.
Good service, very friendly and helpful.
Have spent over 10k here just from that, no mucking around.
Yet to use their print service but will do that soon.
Extremely helpful and friendly staff, passionate about their work. Liked the classes for camera buyers.
Staff always glad to help and answer any questions. Always friendly and greets you when you walk in. They develop film fast and to an exellent standard! My go to camera and film shop! Recommend this place for everyone! New or experienced photographers!
