What customers say
Fantastic experience! If you miss the old days of solid customer service, this place is for you. A little over a month ago I went in to buy a film camera (no knowledge or experience) and the person who helped me couldn't have been more welcoming, helpful and generous with their time / knowledge.
I have sold several cameras to Seawood Photo on 4th St. in downtown San Rafael, CA. Staff are knowledgable, maintaining a nice selection of cameras, vintage lenses, & flashes. Seawood offers digital imaging services & more. ★★★★★
