I turned up with a broken 20 year old Nikon to get a replacement. The staff member was extremely knowledgeable and gave me a few options and an hour later I had acvery cost effective upgraded Nikon D750 that they had in stock. I couldn't be happier with their service.

Exemplary service in buying pair of secondhand Swarovski…
Reviewed a secondhand pair of Swarovski binoculars in their website on Sunday, spoke to them on Monday and after getting the really helpful information I needed over the phone, ordered them - received them (we live up on Skye!) on Wednesday. Exemplary service all round. Condition of the product was nigh on perfect and at a remarkable price. Many thanks and will continue to use you again

Ordered a smart telescope and tripod head online, got conformation almost immediately followed shortly after by a dispatch note, and then in no time at all an email from the carrier saying they had my parcel.
Kept up to date from the click of a button. Parcel arrival at the time stated. Very happy with the service, and will use again.

We had a great experience with Clifton Cameras Gloucester store.
Chloe was very knowledgeable and took time to understand our requirements. She was very patient whilst we tried out many different binoculars. It was good to be able to view the countryside from outside the store which greatly assisted us to choose the perfect product.
I would highly recommend Clifton Cameras and Chloe in particular.

Vey helpful service
Vey helpful service. I ordered a camera battery and charger The charger took a while to arrive due to shipping delays from the supplier but Clifton Cameras sent my battery separately by next day delivery as I needed it for a photography course.

Great service and choice in-store & online
I’ve used Clifton Cameras for cameras and lenses in the past and always received excellent service (and great prices). This time though, I wanted hands-on as I’ve retired and wanted to try top-end binoculars from Leica, Zeiss and Swarovski, and Clifton is one of the very few places nationwide where you can do this. I emailed in advance to check they had demo units on my shortlist and received a quick response. When I went to the showroom I received a warm welcome and excellent advice, no pressure, and was able to take my time. They even had a distance ‘eye chart’ for my bins try-out. Walked out happy with my fabulous new binoculars, and even bought a second compact set online a fortnight later as I’d tried them in store and could see how they complemented my main purchase. Very happy indeed.

Sublime Packaging! And Thankyou!
Today I received the DJI Air 3S, and want to send out a big thankyou to Clifton Cameras. The packaging was exceptional. A good amount of bubble wrap on the product itself, and surrounded further more with foam. This enabled the Drone, and packaging to arrive in fantastic, and unscathed condition. Clifton Cameras has, and always will be my go to Camera Shop. From start to finish, the whole transaction has gone smoothly, and with superb communication.
