The only shop with stock!

ProAV was the only shopping having the Kinefinity EVF on stock. Monitored tens of shops the past weeks but "normally shipped within 2 - 4 weeks" doesn't give me a warm feeling. Shipping to the Netherlands went fast. I am happy.

Mind blowing service

Mind blowing service. Excellent service, speed and communication. I’ve ordered before from these guys and wouldn’t hesitate to order again. They are the bee’s knees.

I wish I found this company years ago!

I was in the market for a significant purchase, but as someone with limited experience in high-end cameras, I really needed guidance. Carl and Jordan couldn’t have been more helpful — their advice has been incredible. Since making my purchases (so far!), I’m genuinely thrilled with the workflow I have now and the quality of the gear I’ve invested in.

ProAV are now my go-to for all future purchases. They take the time to listen, understand my needs, and even highlight solutions to improve my results in ways I didn't even know possible!

No complaints

No complaints, whatever, about Pro AV, but the delivery company let them down, drastically.
The parcel was left on the front doorstep, in full view of passers by. This will be proved, by viewing their own photo. The door was not open.
We were both in, awaiting the delivery. The bell was not rung, nor the door knocked.
It was found by chance, later in the day.

Hello Edward,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We will be taking this up with the courier to find out why your parcel was left. We have a strict agreement with them that all parcels must be signed for and will be ensuring this does not happen again.

Kind Regards
Proav
