Geschreven door het bedrijf

Honest, Impartial Advice, Since 1990: Starting out in 1990 as a camera repair workshop in Bailiff Street, Northampton, we soon found a demand for both new and used photographic equipment. So we began to venture into the world of photographic sales. As demand increased, we found ourselves requiring bigger premises and in 2002 we moved to our current location on the Wellingborough Road. This allowed us to hire more repair technicians and also increase the photographic services on offer, such as onsite developing and printing, ID photographs, video transfers, photo editing, sensor cleaning and photo gifts... to name just a few. Five members of the Skears family still work in the shop, whilst other members of staff although not blood related, have worked for us so long, we count them as family! We aim to provide our customers with the latest technology but with traditional customer service. Ask us any question, at anytime, we may not know the answer, but we endeavour to find out!

A very good repair job

A very good repair job. It took a long time for the repair to be done but that’s the same with most camera repair workshops because they’re backlogged and so busy.
The communication was reasonable and there were updates to keep me informed.
I’ll use them again in the future.

I sent my Mamiya 654 1000s for a CLA which was excellent even when dealing with an issue that occurred when I started using the camera. So yes I would recommend Skears for all your camera repairs and maintenance. Thank You

Amazing service from Skears

Amazing service from Skears - excellent advise about which camera, films and DSLRs for my needs of landscape and wildlife photography. So friendly, great listeners and delivery of my old DSLR after servicing. They knew what I was on about and know their field well. Thanks sooo much !

Old Minolta lens back in use!

Everything went as planned, the repair was to a 1990 vintage Minolta 85mm f1.4 lens for which I am told there are no longer parts available, although Skears had a stock of some in their stores from way back!
Delighted with the service especially as this lens has sentimental value, so doubly happy!
Very impressed, excellent performance by Skears!

Excellent value on used equipment

I don't live anywhere near their shop, so called them about a used camera I was interested in. Maks, who took my call was excellent. Answered all my (many) questions clearly and honestly and promptly sent me additional photos of the item as per my requests. Once ordered, the camera arrived very promptly and exactly as described (its one minor fault had been clearly explained to me). Price was more than reasonable given that Skears had serviced the camera and give a 12-month warranty. Sure, I might have found an equivalent item sold "as seen" from a private seller for less, but for a 50 year old camera, that warranty's worth a lot.

What a great buying experience today.
Super super knowledgeable customer service from Malcolm - who steered me gently in the direction of a super wide angle lens. He know everything and is obviously passionate about his profession.

Fantastic customer service

Fantastic customer service. In a day and age where internet sales dominate this shop stands for everything that is good about retail. They were helpful, especially Maks, and the used camera I purchased is excellent. They test everything properly and explain features and offer support. I have not shopped there before but would go back in an instant.
