Good Sservice and honest advice – I do not uunderstand the bad reviews these guys are getting. I went in despite the bad reviews and received very good advice even though I only bought a battery charger for my Canon EOS 5D. I ended up buying a lens cap and UV Filter as well. They mad nice compliments about my lens as well. Two days later I called to compare their price with Amazon for a Tamron zoom lens. They said they had the lens but it would not work well with my camera. I nearly busted $654 at Amazon. I think these guys ... read more

DON'T BUY FROM DISCOUNT CAMERA! – DO NOT BUY FROM DISCOUNT CAMERA. Last year when I was in the market for a DSLR, they quoted me a price for a NikonD90 that was about $400 more that Best Buy and Wold Camera. That was when I decided they definitely do not provide a "discount". Needless to say, I didn't purchase my DSLR there. When I was ready to purchase my Canon S95, I did my research thoroughly and knew what I should expect to pay. I went in to Discount Camera because they offered the same price. A month later, I started ha... read more

Unethical, Rip Off, Warn Your Friends – A friend from Australia was sent by a hotel concierge to this place to buy a camera. She and her -20-month old shopped and were treated well during the initial process. She got home to find that they had given her a lower grade camera for the higher grade price -- a $200 plus dollar difference. When se returned to exchange, reciept in hand. They refused and started to rough her up until she called for the ploice. They literally were manhandling a woman with a baby in a backback in the ... read more

Do not shop here – If you are a traveler do not shop here. They heard my accent, asked if I was from overseas, then ripped me off over $200 on the purchase of a new camera. When I went back to confront them they told me to get lost. The fact that they don't give out proper receipts should have been a warning. Stay away from this shop.

Most expensive in town.... – As my camera went dead while touring California from France, I had to buy a camera with no time to go around shops, compare prices, or buy from the internet... I was abused by the "discount" word... People there look much too clever .... to be honest! Now back home, I could have a look at market prices, and I found out, with no surprise, that I finally paid around 20 % overprice for a Panasonic FZ28 camera, and 50% overprice for an a-data SDHC 8GB class 6 card... Keep away from that store, that i... read more

No Price Quotes – Living in the east bay and looking for the best deal on a Nikon D80 is most practically done on line or by phone, as taking a leisurely jaunt into the city isn't cost effective or practical for the purpose of price shopping. This company will not give price quotes over the phone, even when they stand to make a $1000+ profit. Not good business in my book!

Horrible – Go in and take up a lot of time looking at every camera in the shop- then go and buy yours online from B & H for half the price.

Avoid it like a plague – Everything in this store is extremely overpriced (Nikon D200 + 18-200 kit: 2,700$, 2GB memory card: 190$, ...). Avoid this store like a plague. Benjamin.
