Convenient; good inventory; some salespeople more helpful than others You cant beat their hours -- open 7 days. Certainly convenient if you need to pick up any camera accessories at the last minute, instead of ordering online and waiting for the UPS guy to show up. Some salespeoples are less than helpful. But others have been very knowledgeable and easy to talk to.

Always willing to help Jason is always helpful whenever I make a purchase. He's always patient and takes the time to explain the product to me. He makes sure that I know how to utilize all the functions so that I'll be able to do it on my own.

Hit or Miss at Samy's Pasadena Its been hit or miss for me at Samy's Pasadena. Sometimes the staff is great and sometimes they suck "sweetbreads". At least they are equal opportunity discriminators. They discriminate equally against everyone regardless of if you are buying a point and shoot, or a full professional studio full of cameras and equipment.

Everything Was Perfect I have limited experience with photography and even less with selecting film, memory sticks and printing. But I really wanted to be able to take some reasonably good pictures on vacation of friends and family. I was helped by a very nice and informative young lady at the counter. She took the time to find out what my experience level and equipment was and what I was hoping to do. She made several recommendations and did not push me into something for the sale. I ended up purchasing everything she sugge... read more

The good and the bad Great Selections for pros and kids alike. The price is not too bad if you buy on sale.However, I have the misfortune to get Kevin, a staff that has a attitude, as if he is doing me a favor by selling me a camera, and told me to my face that he has no time to devote as much as 20 minutes to me, since don't I see how many other customers are waiting for his sevices????? He repeated the "20 minutes' four times to me, He said: "what if I spent a whole 20 minutes with you and you decide not to buy, I would be... read more

First Class Customer Service This is the second Samy's I have been to. The first was Fairfax to make a purchase and also to attend a free intro class for the Canon T1i I got. The seond was Pasadena to get another lens. First of all, after reading so many diverse reviews on the staff one can get a little skeptical or intimidated by going in. STOP READING REVIEWS AND EXPERIENCE IT FOR YOURSELF. This was my first DSLR purchase and the staff at Fiarfax was thourough and understanding of my needs. All my questions were answered a... read more

The staff was very knowledgeable and helpful. After going to best buy to find a HD camcorder I went to Samy's to do some comparative shopping & while they were busy I found the staff to be very knowledgeable and helpful. Not only were they running a no tax promotion but as they were out of the advertised unit they upgraded me to the next model up at the same price. Walked out paying over $100 less then Best Buy wanted for the next model down(on sale). I will be back for my next SLR, tripod and possibly a new 3D camcorder.

Samys Camera An ad in the LA Times prompted me to go to Samy's. They have a good selection and friendly staff, but I would say their regular prices are just ok. They have great sales, though, so if you find something in one of their ads, it's probably cheaper than the competition.
