I was impressed by the customer service in person, online, and over the phone. They were educational. Jim headed me in the right direction on a mirrorless camera. I was so overwhelmed by the choices! Jim helped me understand the features I did and didn't need based on the photos I'll be taking. I was also impressed with how many staff were present. I was there at a busy time of day, and they were able to help people quickly.

I'm perplexed by the negative reviews. My experience at Schiller's was above and beyond. When first calling the store, they told me the 8mm film I had that I needed to convert to digital would take 6 wks. When I told them that my son needed the film to use asa prop in a play, they said they would try to expedite it. They had it ready for me in a week! When I went into the store, there was someone available to help me immediately, even though there were probably ten customers in the shop at the time. My experience at Schiller's was top of the line and everyone I dealt with was extremely helpful and friendly. I will definitely steer business their way whenever possible.

Had my DSLR Sony camera's sensor cleaned last week and WOW. Didn't realize how bad it was. Schiller's did a GREAT job, customer service was fantastic and the fact that it is done right there on the premises was a great relief. Turn around time was 24 hours, so I was back to snapping photos on the weekend!

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Schiller's Camera | Feb 18, 2022

Hello Joe, We suggest looking at a few options. 1. Rent a 70-200 2.8 lens as needed for $35 for a day or the weekend. 2. Look at our selection of used gear. 3. Consider a Tamron 70-200mm 2.8 lens. They are fast and great quality.
