Reviews of Pictureline
Scott Wall
From the first time I went in the store they have treated my fantastic. They listen to my concerns and answer my questions. Recently I have been working with Colin and he is outstanding. He showed my all my options, answered all my questions and then allowed me to make my own decision. He has been willing to help me out with problems and even willing to got out with me and help me be a better photographer. I would highly recommend Pictureline to anyone. Thanks for your honesty and integrity. I am not done yet using their services.

All the crew over at Pictureline are amazing. They have taken care of me on 2 major projects including cameras, gear, lenses, bags, lights and more. And are my go to in a world where we buy most stuff online, but need knowledge and inventory when we need it.
Kenny especially is one of the most knowledgeable camera experts I’ve ever worked with. He was helpful and shared the great analogies that make someone who isn’t a true camera expert understand why one product makes more sense than another.
I prefer to give my money to local guys over the web no names when possible. And these guys are top of the list.

Even as a seasoned photographer, I still get intimidated at photo stores. However at pictureline, I feel welcome and Chase always makes sure I get the right equipment for what I need. They make renting equipment a breeze. Price wise, they are competitive so I rest easy knowing I got the best price. 10/10 I love that place. It also always smells really good.
Dane Lee
Pictureline is hands down, the best place to go in the Salt Lake Valley to acquire anything camera and lighting related. The staff are top notch, actually talked me into a lower priced model. Not something you experience often. They are not there for the sale, they are there to make sure you get what you need. They also hold classes for those looking into learning photography.
I can't recommend this place enough.
Matt Fairbourn
If you are looking for new gear check Pictureline first! Pictureline is the best camera shop in SLC bar none! High quality items, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and a great selection. I have had amazing customer service every time I have been in the store. They always are helpful and make great recommendations. Colin is the best! Thanks guys!
Ciaran Burton
Pictureline is always my go to one stop shop for all things camera gear. I have been a professional photographer for 5+ years and have come back to these guys time and time again. From lens calibration, cleaning, gear rental, to new purchases I have been nothing but impressed with the knowledge of their employees. Colin recently helped me decide on what gear would be best for my business when I purchased my new camera body and was so patient when I went back and fourth on my decision. 10/10 staff and service!
Amy D
The staff at Pictureline is professional and extremely knowledgeable. I go to them for all my cameras and equipment. I always look forward to talking through my questions and feel like I come away having learned a lot and excited about my purchases. The owner is wonderful and I would recommend Pictureline without hesitation.
Robert Thomas
This was my first time buying from Pictureline and it could not have gone better. Chris B. kept me on the list and got back to me as soon as the lens was available. The sale and service was smooth and I received my lens in two days. Prompt, professional and courteous. They’ll be the first place I look in the future. Give them a try you won’t regret it.
Katie MacMillan
Highly recommend the Introduction to Photography class with Jens and can’t say enough good things about it! Very thoughtful, informative, and fun! Jens is a gem of a human and an incredible photographer. So happy I took this class…I can finally take my camera of the shelf and put it to good use!
John McCallum
I have been shopping at Pictureline for almost 20 years and I'm happy to say their service and the quality of their store is even better than before. They have updated and adapted with the transition from film to digital over that time and kept pace with all the current tech for photo and video. They will always be my first choice for new gear!
Ceelie Talbot
I wish I could give an endless amount of stars to this place.
I do wedding videography and recently lost footage to an entire wedding filmed 4 hours away. I asked if they could have their tech check the SD card I had used and given back after renting one of their cameras and recover the missing files. Low and behold, they recovered EVERY single file. I am beyond impressed with the customer service I've received from them doing rentals, purchases etc. They are extremely responsive and quick to find solutions when you need them. I've been a loyal customer for 3 years in the industry and will continue coming back! Ignore any low reviews and walk in for yourself. I couldn't recommend them enough.
Monique Cho
Jens' passion for photography is infectious. He is a great speaker and a story teller with a great sense of humor as well. Collin was a wonderful presence as well, and I got a lot more comfortable with my camera. Recommend very highly!
samuel shakhov
The employees at pictureline were so helpful!!! My friend and I came into the store the other day to pick up some 35mm film, which was fully in stock, and cheaper than most places. I had some issues with my light meter for my film camera and they were able to replace the battery and get it working again. They also helped my friend who was getting into film photography and help her understand how to use her new camera.
I will be coming back to pictureline for any of my photo needs!
Jamen Littlefield
Wow. This place is pretty incredible honestly. I’m not one to leave reviews but I was impressed with the customer service and individual time that was given to me as a customer. I was planning to buy some camera equipment over $5k and Doug walked me through every single question or interest I had. They had everything I wanted in stock. I stopped at a few shops on my commute to Salt Lake and none of them were half the shop that pictureline is! Thanks, highly recommend.
L Mitchell
I was attending a conference in Salt Lake City last weekend. I decided to rent a camera and head to Antelope Island in hopes to capturing some images of the world class mule deer that I've been looking at online for years. So thankful I ran into Collin. He told me where to go for the mule deer and he was spot on. I was able to take some incredible pictures that I plan to frame. Jon was also helpful in getting my images off of the camera and into my google drive. Highly, highly recommend these guys. First class operation and will definitely be back on my next trip to SLC.
Shawn
If you’re looking for camera gear, look no further! These guys have a huge inventory and they’re very knowledgeable. Great selection on accessories too. I had an opportunity to deal with Chris B. about my purchase and he went above and beyond. Thank you kindly.
Kiley Williams
Got my first prime lens here after hearing the high praise Marina Williams @marinawphoto gave this place, and I’ve gotta say this is the first camera store that I’ve actually liked. Despite it being a bit out of the way for me to get to, it was definitely worth the drive. I can’t wait to go back to get some rolls of seamless background paper, and I will definitely be going back for any of my other camera needs.
Madeleine Bettridge
This Intro to Photography Class was amazing! I learned so much and loved how hands on it was! The instructors were so helpful and informative. I met such neat people and had a lot of fun. I would highly recommend this class to anyone!
Andrea Medina
Ive been a customer of pictureline for years. It is by far the greatest place for everything photo, they are knowledgeable, they are kind, they make you their priority and if you get the opportunity to work with chase do it! He has made my career excel in every direction. He gives you his full attention, he is patient, and he basically wrote the how to on all photography equipment. Chase thank you for helping me grow as a photographer, and for being an amazing person. You are a vital piece of pictureline and all its success.
Jerry Hadam
Once again Pictureline puts me in the right gear. I needed some of the newer gen of CF cards and some SD cards. I didn't do all my research and Hans got me into a better setup right away, checked stock while I was on the phone and guided me towards a software solution instead of a hardware solution. The tripod they put me on years ago is the best tripod I could have imagined. This store rocks.
Dylan Simpson
PICTURELINE SAVED MY LIFE (and my business)
I’m a wedding videographer. Have been doing weddings professionally for almost 3 years, almost 40 weddings done and it finally happened… I wiped a card before importing the footage. I took it to them and there was nothing they could do. They gave me a refund for the footage they couldn’t recover but Kenny walks up to me and says he wants to try one more thing. He takes me to his computer and he asks me to leave the SD card. VERY doubtful I’m getting my lost clips back I start drafting up the horrible news to send to my client. A few hours later I got a text from Pictureline and it was Kenny saying he found the footage! He absolutely did not need to do that. He 100% went the extra mile to help me fix a big mistake I made. Words cannot describe how much that extra mile has saved me. Incredible service from not only him but the whole staff. 10/10 from me
ORANGExOAKLAND
Always helpful and accommodating. Wonderful knowledgeable staff. I highly recommend this store for anyone looking to purchase photography equipment. They are my default shop. Cheers!
John Bruehl
Beautiful new space at Pictureline. They have an amazing staff with knowledge to assist you through every project you might have. They are one of the top Sony Imaging Retailers which stocks all products
Laramie Paulick Ercanbrack
I was able to take a “Get to Know Your Camera” class through Pictureline. The most incredible thing to me was that the owner himself, Jens, was teaching this class. He’s taking the time to teach us the basics along with weekly assignments to put into practice what were being taught! I’ve learned so much and would do this investment again!
Tonytone.anthony
I spoke to a handful of people here. Those are,
Rich from the gopro both who got me on the hero 11,
Dave from sennheiser who got me on to the studio headphones and the shotgun mic,
Pete from panasonic who got me on the GH6 and a few lenses,
Max from picture line who is very knowledgeable about freelancing and Chris from picture line who is a pleasure to work with at checkout.
The grand opening event as a very good turn out. The store is very nice and best of all it smells very good inside 😂. Picture line gets extra stars for that.
Overall very happy with my experience at this event and store. I highly recommend doing business here. This place is handicap accessible. This place has a very calm and relaxed environment. I will be a returning customer.
Kara Weber
Pictureline is incredible! I had a friend put me on their wait list for the FujiFilm x100v and xe4. These cameras are currently in high demand and sell out really quickly. Pictureline got their hands on a few xe4 cameras and contacted me immediately. Chris set me up to purchase and the camera was shipped to me out of state the same day *despite it being the day before Christmas Eve!* The Pictureline staff are friendly, know their stuff and work in a timely manner! The camera also had NO markup and was an incredible price compared to their competitors. So happy to have my new camera and can’t thank the Pictureline team enough!
Martin Cryer
Excellent service, very relaxed atmosphere. Replaced a defective new Fujifilm lense with no issue. Very good prices. Really nice physical store. Best camera store I have ever bought from.
Isaac Dial
Pretty much everything that you can image is here for photography. Great selection of multiple brands, tons of accessories, great selection of camera bags and an excellent, knowledgeable staff that are extremely helpful. They get you in, educate....if necessary and get you out of the door quickly.
They have an awesome rental program and offer classes as well.
From lighting, sound and photos, they have you covered!
Hollie Orton
Pictureline always answers my questions quickly and completely. They always help me with all my photography needs whether in person, on the phone or online. Colin Bigelow has been particularly helpful to me with questions, setting my equipment up and sharing good photography locations.
Joe Ennesser
Great experience overall buying a Leica Q2. Checkout was easy and Pictureline reached out to me by text after to check in on the purchase. I bought it later in the afternoon and it arrived 36 hours later. Super fast shipping. Thanks!
Chantel Gunther
Just finished the Getting to Know You class. Such a great way to get an overview of my camera, photography techniques and even practice what I’ve learned. Highly recommend! Thanks, Jens!
Roger Rugg
I would recommend this class for all beginners with new cameras to learn how to begin to take photographs not just pictures. Instructor is great and has an assistant at each class to ensure everyone is gaining the knowledge that the class provides
John Lavall
Great customer service, great prices and communication! I’ve purchased my Canon C70 and recently a DJI High Bright monitor here and couldn’t be more pleased.
Lil Will
I had the honor of meeting the most helpful people. I’m new to the camera industry and Colin, Natalie and Luke helped me out TREMENDOUSLY! So if you see this, Thankyou so much for helping me out! If I had the power to give this fine establishment of people a raise, I would lol!
A Bender
Amazing photography store! If you want/need friendly, knowledgeable staff, a great selection, and quick shipping across the country for those distant purchases, this is your place!
Kelly Flint
I’ve relied on Pictureline for 25 years for my photo equipment. Great people and great selection of products. I highly recommend them.
Tomasi Brown
Loved the class and the instructor. Jens is the best! Just the tip of the iceberg as far as learning how to use my EOS-R and how to take better photographs. You won’t regret taking this class.
Sachiyth A
5 stars isn't enough! First I called the store and talk to Matt about my interests in camera. He took his time and guide me to what i needed. Then I made a trip t the store and met the amazing staff. Talk to Berkeley at the store and he addressed all my challengers that I had. This store has everything you need. Don't buy online. Go to this store and see why buying local is amazing. You build a one on one connections. Nothing beats that! and you become a member of the photo family. Go visit Pictureline. I highly recommend. You won't be disappointed.
Dan Williams
Luke Hansen is the best!!! Give him a raise now! In all seriousness, he was patient and incredibly professional. Thank you Pictureline!
Erin Madsen
20 YEARS of trust. I have been going to Pictureline for over 20 years--they are trustworthy, knowledgeable, and they care about their clients. Their customer service is the BEST of the best. Their prices are amazing, but even if products were to cost more, I would still choose to buy there knowing I have not just a business to contact for help--but a friend.
The Pictureline staff knows their products and are great to answer questions without making you feel inferior. They will never try to oversell you. When renting equipment, I have appreciated the time they have taken to make sure I know how to use each item. They have always been patient and never pushy.
Berk is a lifesaver and has gone above and beyond to help me in comparing products, renting the right equipment, and taking care of camera repairs. He treats clients like they are the most important person in the room because he believes they are!
You really can't find a better place to buy camera gear.
Brian Baity
Super knowledgeable staff and friendly too. Well stocked for numerous camera manufacturers. The building is modern and clean. I went there to look in to off camera lighting and they had amazing choices. They offered future help as well with my purchases. Matt was the employee helping me and I would easily recommend him for your questions and needs. At the time that I write this update, this is pretty much the only source for camera gear in the salt lake valley that also offers technical support for their equipment
Laurence Boswell
Pictureline is a great store for any photography needs. The staff, especially Jon B. was super helpful and insightful on what equipment I should buy, the pros, cons, etc. Jon spent a lot of time with me which I appreciated. Great customer service and great products.
Michael Scott Photography
I've been going here for years and years. Whether you need backdrops, lenses, new lighting, a tripod, card reader or just want to rent new equipment to try before you buy... pictureline is your trusted one stop shop. You won't meet a more professional, knowledgeable and friendly staff. They have been with me since the beginning of my career and have felt like a part of my journey as a photographer. Love this company and team. Support local. Check them out for anything you need. Just got a new tripod the other day and am in love.... I'll never go back to cheap tripods again.
Alesya Krauchunas
I’m a photographer and I decided to upgrade my gear. My choice was the Canon EOS R3 camera. But unfortunately it was back ordered everywhere except Pictureline. So I asked Chris B. a few questions and in four days I got my package. Excellent service with fast delivery. Thanks)
JD Fitzgerald
The nicest camera store I’ve ever been in. Great selections and they were in stock of all of the newest products including a few that I didn’t think they would have. The store is very clean and the interior has a modern feel. I was greeted by several different employees who wanted to help me with anything. This is how camera stores should be done.
Jonathan House
Love Pictureline! Their staff are professionally trained and are as passionate about photography as you are. I highly recommend taking their GTKYC class or any training they offer.
Charlie Lansche
Best full-service camera store in the West. Utah photographers are certainly fortunate to have them locally. Thank you Picturline for taking care of my needs, your expertise, and your excellent commitment to service for more than a decade. Berkely and Colin literally keep me shooting!
Jung
Excellent customer service.
Chris B. ordered out of stock item from manufacturer just for me.
They will go above and beyond to make me happy. Thanks.
Dexter Davies
Was on my way to a football game and needed a battery right away to film. Called ahead, they had it ready to go and all charged up for me. Best customer service around.
Deanna McLaughlin
This was my first class here and I loved it. Jens is passionate, knowledgeable, and a great communicator. I was actually sad when it was over. I can’t recommend Pictureline enough.
Russell Gunther
Jens did such a fantastic job teaching this class. I’ve photographed for many years and learned things that I hadn’t realized.
Shaun Stahle
Masterful. Very energizing. Thoughtful and entertaining. I’ve shot since u I was 5 years old and had my understanding stretched. Eager to take the course again.
Jave Bjorkman
Very easy experience; package came as expected and in great condition! Financing available was also an easy process and got us our order in no time!
Chris Matthew Nielsen
Best place for anything photo and video hands down. They even sell SD cards cheaper than Best Buy and Amazon which blows my mind. Super competitive prices, incredible customer service, and everything you could want in stock. Berkley is the best!
Meagan Larsen
I can't say enough good things about Pictureline!! It's my go-to place for anything photography related. It's not just a camera store. It's the perfect place to ask questions, test out gear, and to work one on one with someone who knows way more than most of us do. They've solved problems for me in ways that I didn't even know were possible! They also have contacts with companies and can order in special parts. I've come here for years and have loved my experience each and every time. They always have your best interest in mind and aren't just looking to make a big sale. I've worked a lot with Colin recently and was impressed with his expertise and patience while we walked through tons of different options regarding a tripod purchase :)
Can't recommend enough!!
Ryan Osborne
I live on the east coast where there are many options, but Pictureline is the cream of the crop and where I choose to do my business. Their customer service, selection, and reliability is impeccable. I just received my Z9 and Chris B was there every step of the way to ensure I received it in a timely manner. He even checked in to make sure it arrived safely. Prior to my career as a photographer, I worked many years in high end retail and have insight into what a well run retail company looks like - this is it. As a photographer, there is no other company I trust to get me the gear I need, when I need it.
Seth White
Best place for all things photography!! The staff are so helpful and kind and so knowledgeable.
Megan Sirrine
I took the intro to photography class and I’m blown away with how knowledgeable Jens is. I feel ready to go out and take some beautiful photos!
Catherine Dean
Awesome store for photographers. Kenny was super helpful in walking me through some things for my new Canon R5 and harness systems. It's great to talk to people who actually shoot on the equipment they're showing you. They aren't on commission so you don't get a pushy salesman feel at all. Thanks Kenny! You were so helpful and I really appreciate knowing that I buy my gear at a place that will help me with any questions or concerns I have!
Dave Smith
My favorite place to buy gear. Knowledgeable, friendly staff who go out of their way to get you the right equipment for your needs. I tend to do a lot of research before I buy an item and I've never been able to stump them with a question.
I've worked on many photoshoots in my career with some very elite photographers and they are quick to say how lucky we are to have a shop like this in Utah.
Utah Wedding Photographer
Pictureline is the best camera equipment rental and sales place in the Salt Lake City area. I’ve used them countless times to rent backdrops, lighting, cameras, and even lenses. Their staff is amaze balls. They’re always attentive and thoroughly answer questions, even make suggestions to something other than what you’ve come in for, even if it means making them less money.
Their pricing is in line with most of what you’ll find out in the retail market, they always have the latest gear on hand. It’s kind of like a toy store for adults.
Nancy Wang (Nance)
Great experience, Berkley was super helpful and I’m so excited to shoot with my new camera! Will come back soon with all my camera needs!
m deppe
Pictureline is my go to camera store. When I text them they are very responsive. Great customer service!!
Ryan Hinman
Always a great experience. They’re great at reaching out when stock comes in and I consider some people on their staff as personal friends. Also, the store is beautiful. Sort of not a necessity, but it helps with the guest experience for me. I like shopping in nice places. Everything is well laid out and the staff can get me to what I need very efficiently. I’m hoping the new store addition will bring me downtown more for events. It could be a great resource for building the photo and video community here in the Salt Lake Valley.
I’m a very loyal customer.
Hannah Wilde
I have been a loyal customer to Pictureline for over 10 years now. I teach high school photography and yearbook and have depended on the employee’s for all of my photography, lighting, and printing needs. The staff always goes out of their way to help you choose the equipment you need. They will sit and teach you everything you want to know and then some. I will always be a loyal customer because of the incredible and knowledgeable staff. They actually care about their customers. I highly recommend making Pictureline your go to store!
Utahtravels
Pictureline is my favorite photography shop with the highest quality lens rentals, most options for camera supplies, and offer great advice. I've gotten some great photos of wildlife using the canon 400 mm you can see below.
Phil Tuttle
I just wanted to provide my experience on how impressed I am following an interaction yesterday with the exceptional customer service at Pictureline.
I had submitted an order for some camera items from a DIFFERENT vendor in October that they have sadly been unable to fill. I know times are hard right now with particular items but I thought something "more" could possibly be done. The employees at Pictureline went above and beyond to not only find my items (which will be here THIS WEEK😄), but they were super knowledgeable, kind, and professional in the process. They definitely talk the talk and represent Pictureline very well. I will be making all of my future camera and accessory purchases from Pictureline.
I was simply impressed and I feel obligated to write this review so others can experience this level of exceptional work performance and customer service.
Thanks Pictureline!
Mitchell Brooks
Chris at Pictureline has been great to work with. I asked to be placed on a waiting list for a camera that was on back order and was contacted as soon as it came in. Extremely fast shipping and amazing customer service. I will be ordering more equipment from Pictureline in the near future.
-Mitchell
J Slater
Easily the best camera shop along the wasatch front. I’ve gotten a number of lenses, peak design camera cubes, and my peak design travel backpack there and been very happy with everything. They have a great selection of top notch gear and can price match.
Tiffany Lindner
I found this company on a Google search while looking to purchase a camera harness. I called them to inquire and spoke with Kenny. He was extremely helpful and guided me with my purchase that I have no regrets about!
He even followed up by phone to ensure I was satisfied with my new harness!
I longed for the days when companies cared about you and the purchases you make; This company does that. I felt confident in my purchase and had the knowledge from Kenny to do so.
This won’t be my last time shopping with them. Thank you for being a great company and giving me that “long-time” customer feel.
heather waegner
Anytime I go into Pictureline I know I’m getting the best advice on what camera to get or which lenses they like the best. I never feel like they’re trying to sell me anything based on commission. They’re super friendly and great to work with! The store is always so nice and organized unlike other camera shops I’ve been to.
Russell McBurnie
I purchased a Nikon 600mm F4 as well as a Manfrotto tripod from here. With such a big purchase I was a bit nervous to choose a store, but I was able to text the store and discuss. This made everything way more comfortable, and then add on that they shipped it same day with overnight shipping from SLC to Florida for pretty cheap, I can definitely say I'm way satisfied with my service here. I will definitely be returning to this store for any future equipment! Also, my equipment came in excellent condition in terms of packing. From end to end their service was everything you want
Edwin Shih
Over the past year, Pictureline has become first choice retailer for my photo gear.
My first purchase was for a Smallrig L bracket for my Fuji GFX 100s. At the time they were the only retailer to have an L bracket for the new camera. Transaction was flawless… fast shipping, fresh product, great packaging, great communication.
I preordered a Nikon Z9 the day of announcement and only ordered with Pictureline as I appreciate their personable customer experience as compared to the larger online retailers. They called me 3 days ago and notified me of the availability of my preorder. As they don’t charge until the product is ready to ship, they sent me a payment link to complete the transaction.
Just received my Z9 today. Pictureline communicated perfectly, packaged the product flawlessly to protect from UPS’s best efforts, delivered a perfectly factory fresh unopened Z9 box and shipped immediately after I paid.
Don’t hesitate to buy from Pictureline.
Thanks to Chris B at Pictureline.
Kyle Allen
I started wildlife photography a year ago and was not sure what the best camera/lens combo was for me. Colin helped me go through the pros and cons of several different camera setups and he gave feedback on what he used and liked. I ended up going with a Sony and Colin has been a reliable, knowledgeable resource for me ever since. Pictureline has the best service and product inventory in the state of Utah and probably the region. I would absolutely recommend this store to anyone with photography needs.
Forrest Anderson
For almost two years I have wanted to buy a Nikon mirrorless camera but I needed a hands-on experience to know if this was the right decision. I contacted Pictureline and they invited me to come in and take a look. They handed me a Nikon Z6ii with a 24-70mm lens and told me to take all the pictures I wanted. By the time I was done I had made up my mind to move ahead. The staff was kind, helpful and friendly but not pushy. I appreciate the professionalism and the respect. It was a great experience that I will be repeating in the future.
Rachel Sharp Waddoups
My absolute FAVORITE camera store! I won't shop anywhere else. I'm a professional Elopement Photographer, and any time I need more lenses, camera bodies, flashes, or any camera gear, I always come here first! They are always so helpful and help me find what I need.
I don't go anywhere else to get my lenses & cameras cleaned or calibrated. They really are phenomenal!
Robert Brown
What a great store! I wanted a Fujifilm GFX100S and, amazingly, Pictureline had them in stock. The store is beautiful, and the staff was very professional and helpful. I shopped at the big New York electronics retailer for years, but recently they sent me supposedly new items that obviously were returns. If I am paying thousands of dollars for a camera, I expect a new one. From now on I will be buying everything photography related from Pictureline. I highly recommend them!
Tom Scott
Luke was wonderful. He took the time to answer all my questions. I purchased the perfect camera for my daughter. The location has limited parking during construction, however, the expansion will be great for customers.
Lucy McDonough
Went in to buy some color film. Super nice atmosphere and the man who helped me was extremely friendly and helpful. We even talked about where I was going to go to take pictures on this film, and he told me some great places in southern California that I could go to. Overall an amazing experience. I am so glad I came here instead of buying film online. I will be back!
Chad Collier
Pictureline comes through in spectacular style! I was looking for a lens nobody had, and was reached out to personally before the store opened to tell me they thought they had one and would get back to me at opening time. They had it, and shipped it same day so it can go as part of my gear to Africa! Great job over there!
Gabby Pleatman
I rented a Canon R5 so I could test it out before I commit to buying one. The workers were very helpful and attentive, I will definitely be coming back!!
Casey Carberry
Outstanding service! Expert knowledge! And super friendly service! Where can you find that anymore? Right here at Pictureline!
My name is Casey, professional photographer and video camera operator, for over 40 years.
Hasselblad, Nikon, and Sony. Are my working tools of the trade.
I know, I have experts, just a phone call away, to fulfill, and recommend, the latest equipment available for a working professional like myself.
I just wanted to let everybody know, I go to one place, and it’s not New York! to get what I need for my projects.
Thank you, Chris B. Berkeley, and Dave.
I’m super confident, and when I’m investing $25,000 in equipment, in the last four months, there’s good reason why I continue to choose, picture line!
I will not work with anyone else!
Thanks again guys! More projects are coming!
Mike Nelson
I have been a customer of Pictureline for years. they are extremely helpful and knowledgeable with the purchases of cameras and lenses. being able to see and try camera equipment and discuss it with knowledgeable professionals is far superior to ordering it online and hoping it is the right product. they provide many classes at their location as well as photowalks to help further peoples photographic skill and knowledge.
I would highly recommend this place for anyone in need of any photography equipment and advice.
Robert Holman
I’ve been a Pictureline customer for almost two decades, and have always had a positive experience. A great space, competitive prices, and most importantly—an outstanding team. Friendly and knowledgeable—as devoted to their customers as they are to the art of photography.
FitzArthur
Excellent Customer Service. The Pictureline Team are very responsive via the chat bot or email. Response to questions are near real-time.
They are going to be my first choice for on-line purchase for my digital camera accessories.
Highly recommended!!!
Kate Turley
The absolute BEST part about shopping at Pictureline is the employees. They’re knowledgeable, experienced, thrifty, and helpful ALL without being condescending. Kenny took time to help me set up my new R5, pick out a lens, and give me his practical advice for a shoot I had coming up. Best experience ever and I cannot recommend them enough.
George Mckella
Great customer service experience I had with the guys over there at Pictureline. I had requested an alert for availability of a lens, it came available and Chris helped me through getting it paid for but then there was a mix up with shipping. So Chris along with the of Colin they resolved the situation. Guys they went out of there way to ensure I got lens much faster than it would if left alone. But get this they got the lens from elsewhere something that they didn't need to do. On top of that, as frustrating as the situation was they were so calm and easy to deal with very amazing people thanks guy.
Steve Luckenbach
Max was the absolute best!
I couldn’t be more grateful for his assistance.
He completely set me up to rock n roll with my brand new camera.
Very excited and all the more so because of his assistance.
Thanks Max!

Fantastic! Extremely knowledgeable and friendly staff, and they have a great selection. We went to buy a new mirrorless camera and they helped us find a body and lens within our budget that did what we needed. They went over the benefits of different brands and models and answered all of our questions. It gave us great peace of mind to have an expert opinion. Love our new camera! Would highly recommend.
Tyler Westphal
Pictureline is the one-stop shop for all camera gear. I’d say they have the best selection in all of Utah and great customer service. Right when I walked in they were attentive to my needs and helped me find what I was looking for. If you’re looking for someone great to help you at Pictureline, look for Colin. He definitely knows his stuff and has great recommendations.
Kelly Poppleton
Fabulous business! We have been a customer for about a year now and been nothing but impressed with Pictureline and its staff. They are a classy, top notch photography company who has been willing to help me with my camera any time I need it, even if I wasn’t purchasing anything at the time. I attended a photo walk at the Utah Capitol building yesterday and was very pleased. The staff helped everyone on the walk individually and I learned so much! Pictureline has our business forever!
Payton Preston
Finally got to visit the physical store and was not disappointed. Pictureline has been my go to store since I became interested in photography. The staff is very knowledgeable and accommodating, and respond to questions quickly online. They are in the process of expanding the store to allow for more inventory and gear. I will continue to choose Pictureline in the future and look forward to watching them grow. Thank you for everything.
Jenn Woo
I will not buy my equipment anywhere else. Their service is phenomenal. Not only when your purchasing the camera but after.
Special thanks to Max and his patience and exceptional service.

Great customer service, walk in looking for options to upgrade to a better camera and lense for my wildlife photography, Colin took the time to advise me on my purchase, I used for the first timé and the results are incredible, thank you so much Colin, definitely the place and person to go to for the best service

Pictureline is hands down the best camera and video equipment resellers I have ever purchased from, and I am proud to be a frequent customer! I fondly remember the days when I would browse the shop with my parents while in high school, and i found it amazing to be able to chat with Dave outside of the parameters of Skills USA, which is where I was introduced to Pictureline. Every time I drove up to the store to ask a question or rent something, (sometimes I ended up doing both), the quick drive to salt lake made me feel like a kid in a candy aisle with the service provided. Equipment stock aside (worth noting that it’s amazing to be able to buy brand name items when the big stores in NY have them heavily backordered) the staff who works on site are first class in all aspects, especially for customer service. I feel like I have great friends who are there to inform me of my technical questions regardless of the value of the items I’m buying, which I value highly. Everyone at Pictureline is amazing but I gotta shoutout to two of my favorites. Building a video production business is tough work, and I want to give credit where it’s due! Much of the technical successes I have achieved is due to the solid advice I have gained from Berkley and Chase. Thanks guys.
Patricia Bittel
Eye opening in so many ways. Am looking forward to new experiments with my camera.
Mary Perry
Picture line has always been a great experience whether I was just looking or ready to purchase. I appreciate their staff for their knowledge and recommendations.
They become like family with encouragement to pursue your photography dreams.
Max Rutherford was my to go guy but all the staff has been incredible over the years.

Money well spent.
I came to this class as an absolute beginner. My knowledge of my camera was limited to on/off. I was concerned the information would be presented in a way that was difficult to follow for someone like me but decided to give it a try.
By the end of the 1st of our 6 “Getting to Know Your Camera” classes, I felt like I had gotten my money’s worth and then some. Each class provided even more value. Money well spent.
Coming in, I could not have told you what an F Stop was or what it did. After finishing the 6 classes, I can manually adjust shutter speed, F stop, and ISO based on light conditions.
There were many in the class much more professional and educated and they also found value in the classes. I would say regardless of your skill level, this is a great series. I look forward to taking more classes from Jens at Pictureline and also joining the events to continue to develop and hone my skills.
Thanks for everything Stephanie and Jens. It was truly a great experience!

Shopping at Pictureline is always a great experience, mainly thanks to Kenny. Not only is very knowledgeable about cameras and photography but he's also an amazing person to talk to all things photography. You really are being taken care of and you can always count on a very professional experience of shopping. This is my go to place for all photo related purchases and i really want to thank Kenny for helping me out always!
James B
Pictureline is my goto place for my video and photo needs. They are always attentive and knowledgeable.
I recently purchased an adapter for my Canon C70 but quickly realized it wasn't what I wanted (my fault). They quickly made the exchange and sent me on my happy way.
Cory
I stopped by Pictureline where I was greeted by Stephanie who showed me the different FujiFilm camera options I was interested in looking at. After asking all off my questions I made the decision to purchase a camera which happened to be out of stock everywhere due supply chain issues. Knowing that I had an upcoming vacation planned in a few days, the staff at Pictureline worked with Fuji to get the exact camera kit I was after overnighted to their store. The entire experience was very positive and I am very happy with my purchase. It was great to see that personalized service still exists by people who enjoy their jobs. Pictureline will be my go-to store in the future.
Hillary Sweet
Wonderful class. I am a beginner that wanted to learn how to use my camera so I can capture images of my loved ones. There were also professionals in the class who were furthering skills. All the classes applied to everyone! Jens is a great teacher with wonderful enthusiasm for the art. The classes always flew by and each one has been useful in furthering my photography knowledge and skills. All in all, picture line is an amazing company that really cares about their customers and wanting to help however possible with photography needs.
Kelly Green
Love the Pictureline team. I have purchase 3 lenses from them and they make the experience easy. Always helpful and always the best price!
AAPROMEDIA (AL)
Best place to get ANY photo/video equipment with the best staff you will ever find in any retail store.
Dave Showalter
Purchased a few items including a new Manfrotto tripod and head today in Pictureline. Stephanie was wonderful! She was knowledgeable, friendly, and very personable. The store carries a huge selection of top brand photography products for professionals and amateurs alike. I would recommend Pictureline and Stephanie to anyone looking to purchase anything in the photography world.
Scott Candelaria
Pictureline and Colin are amazing to put it mildly. Colin is always willing to take the time to educate you and show you the products or services that best meet your need. I know personally he has spent tons of time with me while I agonize over a decision but he is always putting the customer first. Pictureline is a great store and people like Colin, Dave and others keep me coming back.
Ashton Hawes
I don’t normally even leave reviews but this is justified. Stephanie helped me purchase my first camera today. An A7 3. She was so patient and friendly. She was very knowledgeable and took the time to answer all of my questions. Pictureline has a new customer for life. The rest of the staff was very nice and the store is very nice and well organized.
Gary Rohlke
Responsive to questions. Fast delivery. Product delivered as and when expected. A no hassle experience with excellent support.
Bryan B
This is the only camera store I will use. Period This is Utah's premier photographer store. The staff are photographers who know the industry because they typically work on the side as a photographer. I can't stand walking into a camera store, asking a question and the sales rep starts lying about features and products to "show their intelligence". This never happens at Pictureline. Plus the majority of the staff know me on a first name basis.
Paul Madsen
Pictureline is my new first stop for any pro photo or pro video equipment. I have been looking for a store that is reliable and trustworthy and this is it!
I have found it hard to find a photography shop that has:
1. The best equipment at good and competitive prices.
2. Friendly helpful staff that knows the craft.
Pictureline has both those elements to their business. I live in another state and was looking online for a camera that has been hard to come by. Nick, one of the managers at the shop, helped me to find the camera and answered all of my questions...I had a ton. He was so patient and put the time in to make sure I had all the answers I needed. And on top of it...the prices are amazing.
I think it's the first time buying pro equipment that I felt supported. These guys are fast, friendly, and go the extra mile to help creatives get the answers and equipment they need.
Do not hesitate to buy from them. They are constantly in touch with their reps too, they know all the current gear and info. I would shop here before going to any of the other big online sellers. Thank you Pictureline for the awesome experience.
Jil Tardiff
As an avid photographer for over 40 years and a long-term NYC resident I have purchased my gear from many different places. I discovered Pictureline about 5 years ago after moving out West and they are now my first choice when I need gear. Great selection, outstanding (and personal) service and they always go the extra mile to help. Twice in the past 3 years they have come through when I was trying to track down an elusive (and popular) camera. Service like this is hard to find and I'm thrilled that I don't have to shop around any longer!
Samuel Sadler
Any place can have a 5-star review when everything goes well, it's what they do when things don't go well that really tells me who I am dealing with. I have a shoot to do in Dallas and my flight leaves tomorrow. The tripod I was buying was putting up a fight as someone had jacked it up when showing it to another customer. Berkley took the time to get everything working correctly and make sure it would meet my needs. Classy people that know what they are talking about.
John Parker
I've been renting gear and purchasing gear from Pictureline for years and I'm so impressed by how consistently awesome the experience has been. I love the layout of the store and the products they offer. The employees are always amazing and helpful. There is always a good energy when I walk in. It's pretty much the perfect small business experience so thank you to everyone at Pictureline that plays a part in that.
Brandon Colton
Pictureline is simply the best. They have amazing customer service that is very responsive, and they ship fast and very well protected. The packaging is the best I've experienced, they care very much about what they are shipping.
Scott Nebeker
Knowledgeable people with an incredible selection of almost anything you'd need for a production.
The atmosphere is open, clean and welcome.
Rental proving used to be wildly out of sync with local competitors but they've dropped significantly and have the latest and greatest of all the major brands up for rental INCLUDING HASSELBLAD!
If you're new here or haven't been for a while, go check it out. It's worth it.
jenny hayes
My boyfriend and I go to this store pretty much every time I am in Utah and it is always a good experience. This last time Sylvia helped us and she was very knowledgeable and friendly. She listened and helped us make several important purchases. We left really happy and wish we would have put up this review earlier. Not sure about sylvia's hours because I didn't see her there before, but if you go there you should look for her!
Lexie Chamberlain
I went to picture line and they were great! They are very quick to respond and quick to do the service. We had a little miscommunication, but they were quick to fix the problem! I also was having a serious issue with my lens and they were able to help me fix it. I will keep going back to them and highly recommend them.
Lucy Jackman
Such an awesome place. I am a very very new person to photography, the staff was courteous and helpful with no pressure. I got exactly what I was looking for, and didn't feel overwhelmed. The store itself is very clean and orderly. Cool art in the parking lot. With as busy as they were, we waited only about 3 min until someone spent as much time as we needed with us. Shout out to Berkley Pack for getting my husband and I cameras that suited each of our needs. We will be back soon
Steph H
Kenny Coverstone and Nick Gilson are awesome! Kenny helped me when I rented a lens and then I had ordered one that Kenny helped with and while he was on vacation Nick made sure there was a smooth process. Highly recommend this store for all your camera needs, rental and purchase. Everyone is super nice, knowledgeable and helpful.
Ellie Edith
Kenny was really helpful while I was trying to figure out what I wanted, would definitely recommend checking them out!
Rachel Guzik
My experience at Pictureline was better then I ever expected! I came in with so many questions and EVERY single one was answered. Berkley went above and beyond to make sure I got the best camera and lens that fit me for my photography business. He was so helpful and made sure that I got the best deal that fit my budget! I came in looking for something specific and went out with something completely different! This is my new favorite place and I am excited to go back and buy more stuff!! Highly recommend!! Give this guy Berkley a raise!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Cara Harker
I very much enjoys the GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAMERA course! It was fun and loved having assignments to put learning into action
*Knowledgeable and fantastic. Looking forward to my camera purchase and workshops to help me with the learning curve. 👍
Additional:
I am SO EXCITED to have my dream camera! And Collin took great care of me! Their time has guy, Chris, helped me make the best choices. They are amazing and knowledgeable and helpful and I cannot say THANK YOU enough!! Their gear is exceptional and Quality, and they know their stuff here. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Paul Tenzel
The Intro to Your Camera class was such a great experience. Highly recommend to any novice or even intermediate level photographer. You will not only better understand how a camera works, but gain a significant appreciation for its ability.
Jaime Blasongame
My favorite camera (and much more) store! The staff is always friendly, kind, and so so helpful. I always leave happier than I was when I got there. 10/10 highly recommend.
Brent Ovard
I recently attended the photo walk at the state capitol. As stated previously Pictureline had a permit and technically should have had the building to ourselves. There were several other small groups taking wedding and family photos and that was OK, plenty of room for all. I'm sorry that the bride to be who left the negative review had a bad experience. But, the Pictureline group , after waiting as requested by here photographer for about 5 to 10 minutes moved out. And if she had just asked for more time we would have given it to her. Communication is the key, not complaining after the fact. Pictureline is a class act with great people.
Bernard Alexis
I was in the process of upgrading my gear and was on the market for a new camera. Most places were on backorder but Pictureline was showing it in stock. Being a skeptic, I messaged them on the site to confirm availability and they immediately responded via text!! I honestly thought that was the coolest thing!
After placing my order, they quickly notified me that they received it and shipped the camera that very same day! My new camera delivered safe and sound and I couldn’t be happier!
That’s the kind of service you want; and I will definitely be purchasing more from them!
I would highly recommend them to anyone!! 5 Stars was too easy to give these guys! :)
Brandon Croft
Pictureline is the best camera store I've ever gone to. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. They helped me pick out the perfect camera for me and answered all of my questions.
Sadie Banks
I love Pictureline! It is my go-to for all camera gear. I love that they have the option to rent gear so you can try before you buy!! Their staff is SO knowledgeable and so willing to help with any questions. I have never been disappointed by any interactions or shopping experiences at Pictureline. Highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend for all of your camera gear needs!
James Wilkinson (Ulfsone)
Pictureline is a great photography store. The people are knowledgeable and very friendly. Both in store and out on one of there many events. What can I say? If you love photography as much as they do and live in SLC, stop by and see for yourself.
Becky Moore
Had a great experience at Pictureline from the moment I walked in the door. I was helped by Colin who gave careful consideration to what I was looking for and gave me several options that would suit my needs. He is friendly and knowledgeable and an excellent photographer himself. I walked out the door with exactly what I needed. I will definitely go back to see Colin at Pictureline 👍🏻
eric balog
Kenny & the team at pictureline are the best in the business. Sure, these days you can order anything online, but there aren't many places left where you can speak to PHOTOGRAPHERS who shoot on a daily basis with the gear you're interested in.
Cannot recommend pictureline highly enough!
Jason S. Calderon
I haven't had the pleasure of visiting this store in person but I definitely will the next time I'm in the Salt Lake City area. It was refreshing to deal with such a friendly staff over the phone who is clearly focused on providing the best possible customer service. A special thank you to Colin for helping me select the perfect full frame camera and accesories. I look forward to making future purchases.
Patty Low
I have been a customer of Pictureline since 2018, when I bought my first DSLR camera. I have returned many times to buy new lenses, bags, filters and other camera supplies. I have never felt pressured to buy anything. All of the employees are very knowledgeable about all of the cameras and present the product, give you pros and cons and let you make your decision.
This year I started participating in the monthly photowalks and have enjoyed myself so much! Pictureline does a great job of finding a location for different photo opportunities. There is always someone there to help if you need it or to try different equipment. I always learn something from the photowalks. This month we were at the State Capital building for the architecture and the photos I took were stunning. Jens, as always, was full of great information and makes the photos fun. We also had a model so we could use flash photography, which was a new experience for me.
Thank you, Pictureline for all of your hard work to make photography accessible to all. See you at future Photowalks.
Jackson Wall
My wife and I have been coming to PictureLine for a few years now, especially my wife. We recently had our first less than perfect experience here. As soon as our situation was made known it was quickly resolved by the owner. He was quick and very kind to help us out and make sure that our experience was AMAZING! We are happy to know that PictureLine stands behind having each and everyone of their customers happy and ensures that every experience here exceeds expectations. We highly recommend using them to purchase or rent equipment from! 😁
Ashley Johansen
I worked with both Kenny and Chris at Pictureline and they were so helpful! I wanted the new Canon R6 camera and the 28-70 /2.0 rf lens which were both out of stock. They notified me as soon as the camera was ready. When it appeared I wouldn't be able to get the lens I wanted, they called me and talked me through what I would be using the lens for and made recommendations for equipment that would best fit my needs as a photographer if the lens couldn't be found. After I expressed that I really wanted this specific lens, they went above and beyond to make arrangements to get me the lens I wanted! I was thrilled with their service, and when I went in to get my new camera, Kenny took the time to walk me through the setup process and showed me how to use the special features and recommended the best settings for my style.
I would highly recommend any photographers looking for equipment to go to Pictureline as you'll receive exceptional service!
Ashley Palmer
Ordering an expensive piece of photo equipment online can be a bit intimidating, but the staff was attentive and answered my questions so quickly over text message. I am so happy with my purchase and will definitely buy from them again!
Shane Hite
I have purchased multiple orders with Pictureline and they exceed my satisfaction every time. I pretty much have Chris on speed dial at this point because of how well he treats me as a customer. They always have what I need and ship fast!
RailFanEnthusiast
I can't say enough good things about Pictureline!! Since discovering them, it has become my go-to place for anything photography related. They are very professional, answer my questions and take care of my needs with quick responses and delivery.
Anya Taggart
As a fotographer I can spend a lot of time and money here. They have latest gear and oh so much more!
Sterling Moore
I needed to send my camera back to Nikon for repairs. Colin was super helpful. Pictureline was able to expedite my repairs and I was able to get my camera back much sooner than expected. Thank you to Colin and Pictureline for your friendly and professional service.
Kristina Braud
I needed a battery charger for my Sony Rebel T6, and called Pictureline. Traveling from Louisiana, I left my charger in my last Air B&B and was 4 hrs round trip away. There was no turning back. I was going to drive thru Salt Lake City and Stephanie saved the vacation by saying she had one for me and would put it on the side for me to pick up. She was super friendly and knowledgeable, and said they are local but can also ship. I will keep her contact card handy!
Kirsten Manriquez
Highly recommend taking the Get to know your camera course. Jens and Stephanie were fabulous teachers and very knowledgeable. Listening to them talk about photography and hearing how passionate they are, sparked that desire to grow myself within the photography world. I cannot say enough good things about these classes.
Greg Johnson
I am no expert in Camera equipment. But I am glad Kenny and the team at Pictureline are. I looked at a "chain" store and talked with the "camera expert" that was as close to a expert as the Apple store genius is to being a genius. Kenny and the team at Pictureline were able to recommend products that I was comfortable with and fit my needs. The information and knowledge the team provided, helped make it easy. Thanks for your help and patients answering all of my questions. You guys are providing great service to novice camera folk like myself.
Greg
Michael Powell
I had an incredible experience at Pictureline today. Hans was the absolute best. We were helped immediately, and funneled to their film camera technician. Hans diagnosed the problem, fixed it, recommended appropriate batteries and film, and showed us how to properly care for the camera. I’ve actually never felt better after a retail experience. Thank you Hans!!!
RP - ryan poelman
This is hands-down the best camera shop in Salt Lake City. They have the biggest selection and largest knowledge base in the city.
If you were looking for pro level gear and great service this is your option. They have mirrorless cameras from every brand. They also have cinema equipment as well. They offer great rental prices and they usually have everything in stock for additional needs. I highly recommend this place
Josh Ashdown
I have been a customer of Pictureline for about 7 years now. During these years I have been in the store numerous times both to buy gear and to simply window shop for gear I want to own. Regardless of if I planned to make a purchase on these days or if I just wanted to look, the staff has always been top notch, friendly, and made me feel welcomed. The staff is very well versed in all of their products and can guide you in the right direction with your purchase. During my many trips to the store I have also found the management and owner to be great people who are always happy to see you.
In the days of everything being sold online (which Pictureline also does) it's very refreshing to be able to walk into an actual store, see the products first hand, have staff help guide you and get outstanding service. Places with this level of customer care are getting to be very rare. Pictureline is now the gold standard for customer care in my book.
When you buy a product online from an out of state retailer, you take a risk of not being satisfied with your purchase and the customer care you get is only over the phone. If you have even the slightest question about what to buy, go into the store and see why this place is known for great service, knowledgeable staff and a wide selection of the best gear.
I have bought thousands of dollars worth of gear from Pictureline and made numerous rentals (Yes, check out the rental selection!!) and I have always been impressed with this store.
Go in, check it out & be impressed!
Brian Curnow
Love this place! I have rented many cameras from here for real estate photo shoots. Hands down best place in town.
John Evans
Great service and a good way to get products fast. Only annoying thing would be the return policy. If you pay with a card they'll charge 3% to return it. They get charged that fee so I understand them not wanting it to come out of their pocket, but B&H and Amazon don't require that fee upon a return and that's the competition.
Zach Kincaid
Pictureline took the extra step to make sure the products I ordered arrived in good stride and with great care. It's so nice to have a go-to for all kinds of equipment. Pictureline makes an effort with actual humans to serve you, not just databases and auto responses. That makes the process the way it ought to be.
Pepper Nix
Pictureline is the best and anyone who doesn’t buy from them is just nuts. Anytime I need help, I can call and someone answers my questions! I can take them a photo and they’ll help me reverse engineer it so I can shoot the same thing for my client. They’ll take time to walk me thru a menu on a new camera I just bought. If I need something but I’m on my way to a shoot they’ll ring it up ahead of time and run it out to the curb for me. I’m not saying I advocate anyone doing that but sometimes things get crazy and when you’re in the trenches, Pictureline is there and has your back. Broken lens? No problem, they’ll rush the repair and rent you a new one. I have told numerous photography students in all seriousness that they should major in anything else and hang out at pictureline to learn. Buy your stuff there and they’ll teach you how to use it! Big national retailers never did anything for me. Pictureline? They are my family and I will continue to support this incredible locally owned business and their families. Service and knowledge are off the chart. They know exactly what I need and I know they will do anything to help me achieve my goals, whatever they are. I would give them a million stars if I could. And Jens, I cannot wait for the party you’re gonna throw in November for your customers!! 😀😀😀
Erin Sorensen
The guys at Pictureline are fantastic. They were incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. I purchased a lens and speedlite from them. I originally was going to buy my equipment from Amazon but the turn around time with Pictureline was light years faster and I knew I was buying from an authorized dealer who would help me if I had any questions or problems in the future. I will be using them for all my further photography needs.
Ben Ocon
Enrolling in the "Get to Know Your Camera" class hosted by Pictureline was the best decision I've made in a long time. I can now operate my digital camera with confidence and am no longer intimidated by the many functions and buttons of my camera. Jens Nielsen is an excellent teacher who makes the class fun and interesting. I highly recommend this class to anyone who wants to know more about their digital camera.
Stuart Stanek
Huge best photo class I have ever attended. I went from knowing about 20% of what my camera can do to about 90%. While I have a way to go in terms of practice, getting real live coaching is invaluable. The staff at Picture Line is a bunch of all stars.
Thanks Picture Line!
Keli Masquelier
Wonderful class!! Jens and Stephanie are brilliant ambassadors to the challenging universe of photography. You can learn a lot by reading a manual or watching online videos but there is so much valuable insight to absorb from being in the same room with people who know the tools and the craft of photography from years of experience. Jens teaches the academics of your camera, the buttons and menus and concepts, but the class is so much more than that! Jens inspires you to dive into your camera, push buttons, change settings, look through the lens and see possibilities that you hadn't considered yourself capable of. A good teacher realizes the challenges and obstacles a newcomer must overcome in order to arrive at a place of joy in the new art; this class will move you from a place of confusion and frustration with your camera to a place of understanding, fun, joy, interest, eagerness and curiosity!
Ethan Tweedie
I have been using Pictureline since 2003 and have always loved their store, it is the Apple Store of camera gear! To this day I still use my Manfrotto Carbon fiber tripod I bought from them over 15 years ago when I got to visit the store. I just bought the Profoto B10 Plus Duo kit to lighten up my travel gear and I could not be happier with their service etc. Chris B on the help desk/chat was great, he answered a few questions I had for shipping etc. Also since I live out of the state of Utah they do not charge sales tax!! Thats a savings of over $200 compared to other competitors! Thank you to the team at Pictureline!
Ethan
Deborah DeKoff
Utah photographers or photographer wanna be's - go here. There's nothing like the service from those at Pictureline when you have a question about the camera you just bought. From classes, to help understanding what the best new lens for a certain type of imagery should be - this is where I go. Jens has created a superbly helpful environment with staff willing to go the extra mile to assist you.
Kevin O'Brien
I can't say enough good things about Pictureline. Chris and his team always come up with stuff I can't find anywhere else. When I really need it. They always make it easy. I love them. Go and check it out, you won't be sorry. I live in Philly, but they are my go-to guys when I have anything hard to find.
Andrew Winegar
Look no further than Pictureline for your Photography gear needs. Absolutely the best, expert advice from staff, If you are a Sony user see Colin he is their Sony expert. Shopping anywhere else is futile. Jens and his staff are truly one of a kind. GOAT.
Matt Olander
I have bought a few small items from Pictureline over the years, but recently did a major upgrade. The staff was very knowledgeable and accommodating, even with the various social distancing restrictions we are facing. With this upgrade some of the product was hard to get and the manufacture was basically useless and unresponsive to my needs. The staff at Pictureline was accommodating and made me happy that I didn't choose an online retailer that wouldn't have been able to offer the personal service that I received. Thanks Again!
Bharath Raj
Phenomenal place for cameras and accessories. Extremely friendly staff. Highly recommend
Alek Sabin
Excellent service and a great selection. I always check at Pictureline first when purchasing new gear. They feel like part of your team, and that can be invaluable for professional photographers and videographers.
Brent Robinson
It seems that most retailer do not have staff that are knowledgeable about their products. Pictureline is an exception. I've always had good service from their staff. If one person doesn't know an answer to my questions they found another person who could help. Salt Lake is lucky to have such a fine establishment.
Colin Nielsen
Although extremely expensive, the staff there is absolutely awesome! Anything you want to learn or chat about to help you understand something, they're there to help. Their rental service is also extremely awesome and affordable.
Matthew Keller
Chris was excellent in helping me with my canon order. They didn’t have a lens in stock (neither did anyone else) - he worked with his canon rep and next thing I know they have one set for me. Excellent customer service, will be porting all my gear purchases through these guys now
Christopher Carl
This is my go-to place for everything photography related. Great, attentive staff. Willing to special order products that they normally don't carry and with a quick turnaround time. Quick shipping. Better than the big NYC stores which can be huge and unresponsive. Had some new gear in my hand while bigger stores had it on backorder. Would highly recommend this company to anyone who is looking for a seamless buying experience.
Mele 'Ilikuone
What an amazing store and company! I cannot rave enough about Pictureline. I started renting camera equipment in May and have been back every week because of the great customer service they provide. Chase and Matt in the rental department are superstars. Everyone there is! You can easily see what’s available online and all their equipment is listed on their site. They have an impressive catalogue of gear you can rent. You can hop online, check availability and reserve what you need and pick up — SO EASY! As a busy professional and side hustle photographer, I love that I can reserve equipment quickly and easily. But what keeps me coming back is how Pictureline treats me as a customer. They are professional, knowledgeable, courteous, and kind. Don’t go to any other camera store, I promise you’ll be happy with Pictureline and all they offer!
Jason B
5 stars for great service and excellent customer interaction / experience. I actually had no intention of buying a camera at that time, but after watching a great video on YouTube, done by Nick at Pictureline in SLC, Utah, I decided to inquire and ask some further questions. As a result, I purchased the very camera reviewed. Nick was informative, didn’t push in anyway, but rather asked great questions, found out my criteria, and ultimately through our discussion, led me to make my purchase. I couldn’t be happier with my decision. Nick and his colleagues are very professional, helpful and obviously care about their customers. My camera is on the way, and I’m super excited. The good part is the customer service experience isn’t over yet, Nick has encouraged me to call in when I receive it, so he can help get the settings set for me .. super cool ! Thank you Nick, et al. I fully recommend Pictureline and Nick and his team. 9/2020’

Was only there to return a camera my friend had rented, but upon entering it I felt like a child entering a huge candyshop.

The staff at Pictureline are very professional and responded to all my questions immediately. It`s nice to work with dedicated staff members who know what they`re talking about. On another note, one would be hard pressed to find a camera store that packs/ships their merchandise as well as Pictureline.
Gabriela Syarova
This guys are amazing! My camera quit working 3 days before our vacation. I had to buy new one and get it delivered before we leave. They responded after hours so I can choose the right shipping method and get it on time! Customer service above and beyond! Will be buying all my lenses and accessories from them from now on :)
He Said She Said
Pictureline matched a offer that a competitor had for a free USB dock without any hesitation. All over their messaging app. Thanks again!
Liberty Blake
I highly encourage anyone interested in improving their knowledge of photography to take a class at Pictureline. I learned so much over the six week class! Now I can use my digital camera in manual mode quite competently!
Andrew Scott
Great place to buy camera equipment from! I’ve bought multiple products and the customer service is the best I’ve ever had!! They are experts and have called me back multiple times to give additional help when I’ve needed it. They stand behind everything they sell!!
Katie Coverstone
Kenny is amazing! He knows his stuff and is so passionate about everything photography related. pictureline offers a friendly atmosphere, making it fun to go in often. I send all my photography friends here.
Candice Andrus
You guys are wonderful!
Here I am in Idaho 10 years after leaving utah and you guys still have the BEST, most genuine customer service.
Dave Ward helped me today nail down what I needed.
Burke Lewis
Pictureline rocks! Competitive pricing and great staff that are always responsive and helpful.
MC Greenwood
A great go-to place for camera equipment when you dont want to wait for Amazon delivery.
Brittany Davis
I have rented camera lenses from Pictureline many times and most recently bought a new camera body. The model I wanted was out of stock, and they went out of their way to notify me when a new shipment came in and held one for me. Their staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. Their rental process is so easy and streamlined. I really love being one of their customers!
Jill Rivers
I want to take this opportunity to give a big shout out to someone from PictureLine who helped me this week. I had watched a YouTube tutorial to help me understand how to use the Epson V600 Photo scanner (as Epson doesn’t provide any instructions or videos on how to use it). After figuring out how to use the scanner by watching the video the person said if I had any questions to contact PictureLine. However unannounced that the message was really for people who actually bought their scanners from this PictureLine store. Regardless not only did this person answer all 4 of my questions he/she did some research add photos and provided thorough information. Sorry I didn’t catch your name but thank you very much. -Jill (sunny SC).
Jerry Lawson
Pictureline understands the art of customer service. With a friendly and knowledgeable staff you get a personalized experience each and every visit. They are up to date on all the latest and greatest gear.
Cary Peterson
Best and only place to shop for camera gear and rentals. They are knowledgeable and friendly. Any business should be taking notes about how to run a business in this era of online delivery.
BC Vanz
I have been a Pictureline Customer for years. Pictureline is the most pleasingly polite and professional photography company I have delt with in my career. Along with an extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and professional staff, they offer classes onsite and Photowalks in real-world locations. Photowalks are “training by doing”. A Great way to share their knowledge, experience, and improve your skills. I attended Saturday’s Photowalk at the State Capital and it was a great hands-on learning-experience.
When you need Equipment or just have a question about photography, Pictureline is the solution. I go to Pictureline for all my photography needs.
Pictureline and their friendly staff are the BEST!!!
AJ Bernstein
The customer service at this store is awesome it felt like dealing with a small neighborhood camera store where the people who work there really cared about how happy I’d be with the camera choice I made. I cannot say enough good things I have been on the fence and a long conversation help me to really decide after a lot of indecision! It’ll feel good to keep doing business with the store I like a more personal experience than the corporate sales attitude
Nicole Aston
No place can beat Pictureline! All the gear you need + the most helpful and friendly staff ready to assist with any questions or just to ensure you get the best gear for you. Max, Kenny and Berk always help me out with calibrating my gear or purchasing the next item! Love Pictureline!
Wade Bricknell
Always friendly and helpful.
Purchased a number of items from them, all in the Sony line of products
Jimmy B
Stephanie helped me today and Colin has helped me in the past, both are amazing employees. I had a small issue today and Stephanie still made it a world class experience. If you need help with photography equipment this is the place to go!
Malissa Mabey
This place is the real deal people. I’ve been coming here for years and every time I leave the store with what I needed and more. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced. Shout out to Max, Chase, and Kenny. Y’all have helped me tremendously with my photography and I wouldn’t go to any other place!
Karlee Bowles
Me and my husband absolutely love this store, we are a photography team and have spent a lot of time and money here. Jens helped us this past week with a big purchase and was amazing! I highly recommend him. He was very knowledgeable, accommodating and just all around great to work with. Every staff member we have ever worked with has been so helpful and great.
Andy Sutalo
I walked into the store this afternoon 9/15/2021 and a very kind young lady asked if she can assist me. I handed her my challenge and she resolved it in ten seconds. Wow! I then came to the conclusion it's time to increase the strength of my glasses from 1.75 to 2.50. She was thoughtful enough to save me from my embarrassment and suggested I might need a wire for the shotgun mic I brought in. We walked over to a wall display and quickly found the appropriate wire. We then walked to the counter, where she opened the package to make sure it was the exact item I needed, it was a sure fit.
Stephanie is a professional who knows her profession but in all actuality she had me at "Hello".
Lance Valdez
5 star from me. If it went higher I would go higher. I’ve been visiting Pictureline since around 2010. They are like family to me now and it’s all love when I enter those doors. They know my name and I know theirs too. I can’t imagine going to another store. Questions and advice they have always stopped and took the time to teach and show me what I need to know. I have brought many friends and family to this awesome place. And they too now have brought many as well. An excellent team that feels like it was hand picked. Thank you Pictureline for all that you do to make sure that we walk out your doors satisfied. Lance. L. L
Sean Whipps
I had the good fortune of being able to swoop in on an elusive Leica Q2 from Pictureline shortly after they received stock.
The camera arrived quickly and was packed incredibly securely. While these two notes may be small, these are truly the types of things that makes shopping from an independent shop all the more worthwhile.
Braun Thueson
Pictureline coming through again! I needed the Rode GO II wireless mics before I left on a business trip. I couldn’t get them quick enough from Amazon and Best Buy didn’t have them in stock. So of course pictureline had them! When I got back home I realized I had left my wallet at the table when I was checking out. When I called, they not only confirmed I left it but they offered to bring it to me so I didn’t have to drive back 40min to get it!!! Are you kidding?!? This is a level of customer service that keeps people coming back! Thanks again!
Mike Hairston
I had the wonderful experience this company some months ago and I wanted to express how professional and how great they were in assisting me in placing my order after I had called and had an issue.
I felt so bad about how everything went ad they handled it precisely in a very professional way. They have a great product that I'm very happy with using and it still worls very well. I encourage all to view and order their products. Also, their Instagram account has some of the best pictures out of any company.
Kris Richardson
Best photography class around!! The class caters to photographers of all levels. It is fun, fast paced, and full of great info-from technical to creative. Yens vast knowledge and passion for photography will make you want to “up your game”. We are so lucky to have a resource like Pictureline in SLC!
Aislinn Macintosh
Super helpful staff. The store has a variety of brands for cameras, camera gear, memory cards, cases, lighting and more. There are cleaning and repair services as well. Super clean store and easy to find what you are looking for. Great experience and reasonable prices. We found a nice camera bag that was the same price on Amazon.
Jim M
As a newer participant in photography I really enjoy the staff here. They take the time to listen and answer my questions on different equipment and will it do what I’m looking for it to do. I drive over 40 minutes just to shop in person and support local business.
Tolu Awosika
Amazing and expedient service with a personal touch. Was recently in the market for a new camera. I had one on preorder with one of the bigger stores on the east coast, couldn’t get a straight forward answer on when my product would stock and ship. Got word that Picture line had the same camera in stock, and immediately got in touch with Chris to put in and order and by the end of day, the camera was shipped out to me. Will definitely be doing business with this company moving forward.
Dan Carvajal
This is the best contemporary camera store I've ever been to. Great selection with extremely knowledgeable staff. I got on the waitlist for a very rare Nikon lens and they had it to me within two weeks instead of months compared to online vendors. Also they have very reasonable rental prices, on paper they look pricier than some of the online rental places but you don't have to pay for shipping so it all evens out.
Patrick Brandenburg (PBBPhoto)
The staff is super knowledgeable and informative, they have a huge selection and the best options. They will get you dialed! Whether it’s photography, film, editing, or printing, it has always been my experience that they are trained and staffed to help you get the right equipment. Happy to have such a great local shop.
Neil Fernandez
Chris B, Max ,and the entire Picture Line team are on point with their customer service! They are knowledgable about their products and are quick in responding to all things. Honest, loyal, and loving people who care about their clients!
Alex Jenkins
Tom helped me and my coworker both times we went to spend our money. He made me feel better about blowing my company bonus on something I probably didn't need but definitely wanted.
Everyone there is nice and helpful, unlike other camera stores. I don't feel stupid asking questions and know I am getting good direction.
Rachel Anderson
I am new to shopping at Pictureline, but I think I’m going to be a lifer! Nick was so helpful, knowledgeable and funny. I had such a great experience and will be back. And… I would be remiss if I did not mention those long flowing locks? Yum!
Aaron
Unparalleled costumer experience. Hans gave me a lesson on how to use my Spotmatic film camera… did not expect this. Over the top service for newbies. Excellent. I’m a loyal costumer now.
Benjamin Chen
Very responsive customer service. It was a pleasant purchasing experience. Thanks.
Jackie Siggard Photo & Video
I go to Pictureline for all of Lens calibrations and this year I switched all of my gear over to Canon and Berkeley it was super helpful and anytime I needed a new lens or camera I would just call in and they would order and hold it for me. it it’s always a good experience when I go there! 10/10 would recommend
krystal furniss
Hans is so helpful and informative. I have had the best experience and upgraded my camera because of the staff here. They are so helpful. The layout of the store is amazing and it’s clean too. Pictureline is my new home!!!!
Joe Ratliffe
Colin--My Man!
I had pre-ordered a camera from B&H Photo and Amazon that was one of the more expensive purchases of my life. Two months later, both companies were unsure of when I would receive the camera, estimating that it may take 4 more months.
I called Pictureline to see if they knew when they would get the camera in stock, and Colin told me it would be about two weeks. The next day, he called me and told me that they got one in and he would be able to get it to me in 2 days!
Colin deserves a promotion, a raise, and a throne somewhere in the store with his name on it. I can't begin to describe how helpful and kind he was through the process. This is the type of employee that makes me want to continue to buy from a local business. Thank you Colin!
Matt Huesmann
The team at Pictureline is top notch. Communication, shipping everything I’ve ever ordered is always been delivered on time just as ordered and these are 4 figure dollar orders!. Highly recommended!
Bob Lacourse
While cleaning my sensor my Nikon D500 went into error. I tried everything to fix the error issue with no success. Finally I looked on google for the closest camera repair store in the Kanab area. Closest one to me was Pictureline in Salt lake City. I spoke with a Rep over the phone and we both agreed I needed to bring camera into the store. Kanab to Salt Lake is 324 miles one way. 5 hour drive one way. I arrived at store and a different Tech looked at it. Perplexed, he said it had to be sent to Nikon.
Another Tech sitting next to us heard our conversation and asked if he could look at camera. He brought it in the back area, and 2 minutes later came out and told me the problem. The shutter curtain was not opening because one of the tiny brackets was bent. He informed me it was a 50/50 shot at fixing it.. He brought it to the back room again and not even 3 minutes later came out with it fixed. No Charge.. Pictureline Camera Shop has the best customer service I have ever encountered.
Kathryn Brookshire Brown
I am interested in buying a new mirrorless camera, so I rented the Canon EOS R with the 50mm lens from Pictureline before a photography workshop in Denver last week. Even though I had the camera to myself for a few days to learn its bells and whistles, I was still a bit confused by a few items. So before I headed out for Denver, I swung into Pictureline and had a great, quick tutorial with Berkley who was so kind and helpful. He gave me his card and told me to to contact him or anyone at Pictureline if I needed last minute help while I was at my workshop. Sure enough, I was on location and had a quick question. The response was quick and Chris answered with just what I needed. Thank you Berkley and Chris for making my workshop such a success and thank you Pictureline for giving such great service!
Mary Edwards
I'm new at photography and my experience here was the best! I was immediately greeted and helped. I felt at ease asking my very basic questions. I wish I had bought my camera here instead of online because they were so helpful. I'm passionate about supporting local businesses. I'll be taking classes here to learn about my camera and I plan to continue shopping here for all my photography needs.
David Perry
Real people with real answers. I could spend all day online searching for solutions, but Pictureline has helped my business succeed because they are the true experts that actually answer my questions. I’ve purchased all my cameras from Pictureline for over a decade, so when I started a podcast and had questions in this new area of production I gave them a call. Kenny not only provided the equipment I needed, but helped me in getting up and running when I hit a few bumps setting things up. I know I can count on them to take care of me.
Save yourself time and money and reach out to Pictureline. Highly recommend!
Aurea Parker
The salesman I talked to was very helpful in what I needed for my camera. The store was very clean and busy and lots of helpful people.
Devan Squires
I've only had good experiences here. Sometimes it takes a while to get someone's attention if you actually need help (especially on weekends), but they are also very nice and helpful. I bought my first real camera here, including the lens and lens filter... fast forward 8 years, I brought in the lens after dropping it and breaking the filter in such a way that it was stuck to the lens. They were able to cut it off for me for free. Pretty much all their inventory is full price.
Vinh Lu (Vinhgetsin)
Great place for photographers. I came in one day without any knowledge of lenses and they spent a while teaching me the ropes. I felt very educated after this visit and ended up renting a few lenses to try out. Their staff is really friendly and I have referred my friend to purchase a high end canon camera from them.
infinityphotorob
I have been shopping at Pictureline for 12 years now. They were there to help me navigate buying my first DSLR to now supporting me with great products for me as a full time professional photographer. They have the all the good stuff in stock. And that is a rarity in the camera world. At pricing that matches or beats everyone out there. I recommend pictureline to friends all over the country because if they need a hard to find camera or lens Pictureline generally has it in stock. Why even look at a box store or Amazon when we have this resource right in Salt Lake.
Shane Hite
Pictureline is a life saver! Chris went above and beyond after I contacted them asking about a back ordered lens that I was needing by a specific date for a wedding. I was given a text 1 month later informing me one was on hold for me. I just received the lens and couldn’t be happier with the customer service! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
t monterosso
The Pictureline staff go so far above and beyond what any other camera store in the world does. They’re polite, courteous, never looking down at you (even though their wealth of information is endless), and unbelievably kind. I’ve stopped buying from B&H, Adorama, or any other online retailer because I want them to have my business. Thank you guys and gals so much and I can’t wait to come in again soon!
Abhirup Das
Always delivered for me. I reached out to the store on two separate occasions inquiring about product availabilities and right before travel plans. Each time I've had a phenomenal experience with the staff who assured me about the product, walked me through the fit, and made it their priority to ensure I received it before my travel plans.
I typically shopped Adorama, but now look to this store mainly b/c of their unapologetically attentive staff (especially Chris) and the bucks I save on tax.
Dixon Media
Always friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff! There is no better choice for your photography needs. We rent gear on a regular basis for our wedding videography business, this place is legit!
Recently, I had a $700 CFast card I purchased here fail and start corrupting my files. After calling them, they had a replacement card ready for me to pick up the next morning. Exceptional service! I love supporting this local business!
Edith 92
They are very people, they can finde the way to fix the issue without tour cameral.
Mine needed to be send to the manufacturer, they help me with that. My only problem is that they should keep you updated about your stuff. I have to called several time to find out what was the next step. After many weeks waiting I guess my lense will finally arrived next, the week hopefully.
R Roma
Berkley provided amazing guidance with my Sony FE 100-400 lens purchase. The love he has for photography was shared with kindness, humility and respect which is rare when deciding on purchasing at a specialty shop. He made me a fan and I will keep coming back to feed my photog addiction. First purchase I made in a long time that did not come with buyers remorse after leaving. Looking forward to upcoming visits to this great store.
Richard B
Thank you very much! I purchased some lenses for my wife. On the invoice notes identified it was a gift. Ultimately I did not want them to ship it with the product packaging visible. The team at picture line went above and beyond! They wrapped a gift for me. What excellent and caring service
I had hoped to add a picture but it looks like that’s not available
marti king
Recently went in and reserved a camera and lens for a special shoot. When I went to pick up the equipment I had a few problems and left angry but the sales person and manager reached out to me and went above and beyond to rectify the problem. Thanks Berkly and Jens in my book you both went above and beyond to make this work for me and that is truly what counts when you realize you slipped and do whatever it takes to fix it. You will always have my business. Thanks again for great service and products.
Taylor Spencer
Pictureline has an amazing selection of top-grade camera gear. I recently had some major issues pre-ordering a new camera through some big online retailers and finally canceled my order with the other companies because, of course, Pictureline came though. They texted me when they had a camera available for me and were always quick to respond via text.
Jacom Stephens
I've been using Pictureline for a LONG time and have always been very pleased. The people that work there are super friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. As a professional photographer, Pictureline is my one-stop shop for all my photography needs.
Glen Schimmelpfennig
Great class covered the basics I had forgotten from college. I trained me the my Nikon could be used in the same way my older Nikon was used. I would recommend it to any photographer. Thanks it was fun.
Trevor Hansen
Purchase video equipment, great staff and great experience, will be back for sure. Really happy with my semi-pro Sony AX53.
Chris Lindblom
This store and their website are awesome. They only sell top-quality brands and all their products are on the cutting edge of photography technology. Most of all, their staff members are incredibly friendly, personable, and helpful. They're very knowledgeable and have the answers to all your photography questions. Whether you live in America or in the Outback, I would recommend pictureline to any photographer in the world.
Zay Angel Alvarez (José)
Update:
To summarize my experience, fantastic customer service.
Though they didn't have some of I needed, they brought me alternatives to SOME of the items. I ended up getting them because I was rushing. When I got home, the equipment wasn't the best fit. Owner reached out to make it right. I will be coming back, I would recommend.
H R
Pictureline is by far the best location for any and all photography needs. I choose them over Amazon and anywhere else. They maintain very competitive pricing, and provide exceptional customer service going above and beyond to get you what you need, answer any questions, provide tips or instructions and even offer fantastic classes. Seriously look no further, go visit Pictureline and you’ll experience exactly what I’m talking about. Cheers! 📸💛
Eric Kristy Adventures
Wow what can we say that Stephanie and team saved our Butt! Had a problem with a memory card that we thought we lost over 200 pictures from Zion National Park. They did their magic and saved the day. And we didn't buy the camera from them. Because of that, we were researching getting the latest GoPro 9 Black and decided to buy it & some extras from them. Stephanie walked us through it and answered our questions. We will be back for more upgrades. Customer service is everything! TY 😁
Geno Atencio
This ended a long search and I was very pleased that Pictureline had the lens I was searching for.
Great store and great staff, I also love the outdoor photography events.
Sabre Tooth
Colin is a helpful, well knowledgeable and professional asset to the Pictureline sales team. Colin is always able to answer all technical questions about camera bodies, lenses and ancillary support equipment
Pete Fote
Jacob Hinmon
I bought a product from these guys and it had technical issues, straight out of the box it was DOA.
I took it in and they not only took care of exchanging it but Berkley spent a whole afternoon setting up the replacement, updating all the software and making sure I didn’t have to deal with the same thing twice.
They’ve got all the great products, sure. But the customer service this team delivers is above and beyond.
Jackson Robins
Incredibly helpful employees! I was going to a photo job in SLC, over an hour from where I live, and realized I left my spare battery at home charging and my camera was dead (my bad). I called Pictureline to see if I could purchase a new one for my job and they even charged the battery for me while I was on my way! Excellent business and staff! 👍👍
Kristin Schreiner
After complaining about cell phone AI pictures looking fake, my husband surprised me with a very cool camera with a gazillion settings from Pictureline (gulp!). Thanks to the 6 comprehensive and successive sessions in the Get to Know Your Camera class, I learned settings, techniques, creative basics, and I'm having a blast with my new camera! I can't wait for photowalk continuing education opportunities. Thank you, Jens & Stephanie!
Guy Tal
You can purchase photographic gear in many places but as a working professional you know that what differentiates one store from another is the quality of the staff. In my years of working with Pictureline I always encountered friendly, helpful, and responsive people. The store is well stocked - a fact I'm always grateful for when I need something on very short notice - and it is always pleasant to visit. As a Utah resident I'm also impressed with their willingness to go the extra mile in support of local photographers. I recommend them highly.
Aaron Clemans
I am a photography novice and needed a camera and lenses for an event. Pictureline made sure I had everything I needed and when I forgot the shade for one of the lenses, they offered to deliver it to me. In addition to excellent customer service, the prices were completely reasonable. I couldn't have been happier with my experience. I will trust Pictureline for all of my photography needs in the future.
David Van Gundy
Great place for photo equipment and supply. Highly recommend.
Brad Gull
Great place filled with so many knowledgeable people!
John Innes
If your looking for local or national camera shop, Pictureline in Utah is my new go-to shop in Minnesota great service via text,phone and email ability to go above and beyond for the customer. We need to support small business! Pictureline has a great staff that know how to do customer service the right way.
John L
I have been a customer of Pictureline for some years and always find them very helpful and pleasant to deal with. It's nice to have a local photography shop that can provide such great customer service. They made sure I was happy with a recent purchase and that goes a long way in my book.
Peter C. Davidson
I had a fantastic experience buying video equipment here. The staff were very knowledgeable, extremely helpful, and respectful of my needs and budget - they were more interested in helping me find what I was looking for than in making a bigger sale. I worked with Nathan, and he was a great help and answered all of my questions with clarity and expertise. I'll definitely come here again when I have equipment needs in the future. Thanks a lot!
Steven Nichols
These guys are great. They found the Leica Q2 I've been looking for and got it out for shipping to me in less than 24 hours, all with plenty of personal service and great follow through. They are my new favorite photo store!
N Brown
This is "THE PLACE" to go for any serious photography need. They are amazing and very deserving of 5-stars. Not sure how they fit so many employees in the store, but WOW you will be helped and have any question answered not just by sales associates, but by staff that know the product, and shoot.
I was initially hesitant to shop here versus online, but they have the exact same prices that you will find online, and most of the time the product is on the shelf and ready to go! I have done some custom orders with them and they always are able to get products in the store much much faster than anywhere else. Great experience! 5-Stars!
Matt Wells
Love the customer service here. Everyone is extremely knowledgeable and willing to help.
Tyler
Update: A high end camera shop indeed. It carries all the brands you would want or need. The staff are very nice and will walk you through different cameras and equipment. Previously I said their prices are usually higher than others, but they now have price match and financing options. Its been the only place I buy cameras from for the past 15+ years and that's because of their customer service.
Brandon Scott
Fantastic service, excellent selection, AMAZING prices. I used to buy stuff on Amazon, but Pictureline had everything I wanted in stock better prices than Amazon for the phantom 4 bundle and Nikon 360 camera. Staff was incredibly knowledgeable and I didn't have to wait for Amazon to deliver it. Great place.
Taylor
Every time I've been to Pictureline (in person or online) I've had a great experience. The staff are some of the friendliest and most helpful you'll encounter in any retail environment.
A few months ago I was tasked with doing a large live streaming project for work and I needed some help picking out the right equipment. Pictureline was my first stop. I got some great advice and purchased some high quality equipment from them afterwards.
If you are shopping for any photo, AV, etc. products, please consider Pictureline over big box retailers. As I found out today, they will price match so it's a no-brainer for me. I submitted a price match request and they got back to me within literally 2 minutes.
Thanks Pictureline!
Rory Brown
After shopping online for a camera I stopped in to Pictureline to get some advice and look at a few things in person. Colin was awesome. He listened to my needs and was extremely professional. So glad I stopped in and am excited about my new Canon.
Jake Swoyer
Love Pictureline! Great people and a clean looking store. Berkley is the man and has helped me with my last few purchases and it has been seamless 👍📸 …
Michael Shane
The class exceeded my expectations! The course material was well organized and presented in a way that was easy to understand. The weekly assignments were really appreciated. I only wish the class was longer. I look forward to more classes and opportunities to work the outstanding staff at Pictureline.
Rob Gilchrist
AMAZING SERVICE! I purchase audio/video gear a few times a year (at least) and Pictureline always comes through for me. Chris B. is super helpful in helping find what I need and making recommendations (which I need a lot of). Couldn't be happier with them!
Alyson Galbraith
Burkley is amazing! This location opens promptly at 9:00 AM and the employees are so kind, attentive and willing to help with any camera question. Thank you Pictureline and especially Burkley for giving such amazing service. Can’t recommend this location enough for all camera and equipment questions and camera purchases.
Brannon Richardson
Sometimes you wanna go where everyone knows your name. That's been my experience with Pictureline. In the rare instance when I have had an issue with a rented item it's quickly been resolved. Friendly staff and well kept equipment.
Kent Miles
I have been a customer of Pictureline for 25 years and I think they are one of the best managed and staffed outfits in the business. The location is easy to access. The store space and layout is inviting and logical and hands-on. Jens and his employees know their products and provide information and training whenever I ask for it. They stock the items I need, and consistently look for new products and trends that will be of interest to their customers. On top of providing a friendly, attentive and low-pressure shopping experience, Pictureline supports the photographic community by sponsoring and hosting events, speakers, and trade shows. I can't think of a better place to do business.
Pete Stott
I can’t say enough good about Pictureline and its staff. Everyone is friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and make an effort to make a personal connection with you whenever you’re in the store.
I’ve had opportunities on occasion to attend workshops or other events hosted by Pictureline and they are always punctual and the necessary preparation has been done to make those events a success.
I’d recommend Pictureline to any level of photographer.
Mark Petrie
I walked in and bought a Sony lens. Got in my car in the parking lot and looked up local classifieds and noticed the same lens for sale at a significantly lower price. I had been looking at the classifieds all morning but I made the mistake of not checking them again before buying. Their in store policy says returns are only given as in store credit. They agreed to just refund me my money since I had bought the lens only 10 minutes earlier. I am extremely thankful for them helping me out with my return. I will be back for future camera needs.
Adam Jacox
I wanted to surprise my wife with some new photography equipment, but had no idea what to look for. I was helped by Berkely who went through each option, gave me recommendations and explained all the necessary aspects of the equipment. After purchasing the new camera he even gave me a ride to the train station so I wouldn't have to walk across town holding the equipment. I never leave reviews, but this time I was so impressed by the entire shopping experience I had to pass it along. I will definitely go back whenever we need photography equipment!

This company is the best at customer service and taking extra steps to make sure you’re taken care of. I’ve called so many times with questions on my equipment I’ve rented and they’re always so willing to help! Very kind employees and they have so much to buy and rent!
The staff is so knowledgeable and extremely kind. They’ve helped me over the phone figure out equipment I didn’t purchase or rent from them. They are simply there to help. They are my source of learning. And now I only rent from them. They’ve earned my loyalty with dozens of interactions with them and never once having an experience other than phenomenal.
Love PICTURELINE!

I have been visiting this store for the past few years. As my interest in photography has increased, I find myself going in more and more. Not only are they fully equipped with every need as pertains to gear, the staff is simply outstanding. Every single employee is Intersted in helping you and informing you, rather than selling you something. You can’t ask for a better customer service experience.
My most recent trip today was out of desperation as I was in a bind with my limitation of photoshop knowledge. I was in need of major help with a project that was over my head and required photoshop experience of which I have very little.
Not more than 5 min after walking in the store, and I was getting a one on one tutorial by one of their in house graphic designers who knows the software inside and out.
He literally sat with me for 40 min showing me and teaching me the tools I needed to use in photoshop to fix the images I had been asked by clients to adjust.
Like, is that even a real thing? I knew they were accommodating, which is why I went there. And I did come prepared with my laptop on the off chance that something amazing like this would happen. But I didn’t believe it was going to be that helpful and that over the top.
If you are a novice, or a pro, Picturline should be your go to source for any photography related need you may have.
Full disclosure, I’ve spent under $100 total on merchandise and rentals from this store. Yet they treat me like I’m spending $5,000 every time I’m there. Needless to say, my next major camera purchased will be through this store. They are hands down the best in the business and without a question the best source in Utah. I vouch that they are genuinely more concerned about the service they provide, than pushing product and sales on you as the customer.
Consequently, that approach is lasting and creates loyalty and ultimately is the key to their success as a company.
Thank you Picturline, for always going above and beyond. No matter what my needs may be.
Danny Divine
Great store, Great people, and lots of Great inventory, it was actually very refreshing to hear, "Yes I do have that in stock". As opposed to the new normal "I can order it for you". I will be back again!!
Todd Sala
Now that’s how to take care of a customer.
I came into the store from out of town and walked out with my dream camera.
Sabrina, nick and Chris (via texting 😄) all took amazing care of me. They listened, asked questions, gave advice and now I get to rekindle my love for photography.
Thanks
Todd

Pictureline is THE BEST! I am a professional photographer and as I was going to edit one of my previous sessions, I couldn’t find it anywhere. I always back everything up and save all of my RAW files and I couldn’t find it anywhere. I started to panic, I immediately brought it in to Pictureline and they were AMAZING! One of my SD cards was corrupted and they restored ALL of my files (and more). I was able to continue to edit and send off my sessions as I did before. I could not be more grateful for the staff at Pictureline—they truly cared. Every individual that helped me was so knowledgeable and personable. I will definitely be going back for any future need I have with my business!’
Ed Erkes
Great Service! Colin called and texted me updates on the status of my order. Pictureline is now my camera store of choice!
PC UT
Went last week to buy a canon camera strap(we live up in Park City, nothing!) for my daughter and received “outstanding, professional and the friendliest service ever” Thank you again!! I strongly recommend this store if you are looking for knowledgeable and qualified staff.
Steven King
What an amazing experience! Jens and Stephanie were so knowledgeable and helpful, and I learned so much. This is a huge amount of material and skill practice packed into a relatively short time.
More than worth the time, effort and money!!
Aubrie Tolman
I had the best service today! I used the online chat to check on a product. I’m super happy with the selection and price - but ESPECIALLY the service! Nick and Chris were both super helpful and quick and personable.
Roch Tauer
Called for advice on cameras and was given quality info not price based sales push. Ordered camera from out of state and Chris made it simple and followed up to ensure it was filled correctly.
Michael Buske
Great experience! I was traveling from my home in South Dakota to Salt Lake. I have a Fuji XT2, and was having difficulty loading the latest software upgrade. I called a few days before arriving and talked to Stacey. I told her that I had not bought my camera there, but needed help. She told me that when I got to SLC, she would help me, which she did. I was so impressed with the store (beautiful) and Stacey’s help, that I will try to purchase all of my future equipment “needs” from Pictureline!
Cali Warner
Can I just spend hours in Pictureline?? My favorite camera store ever. Every single staff member is knowledgeable, super helpful and overall freaking awesome. Always feel taken care of and like I have a backup team for my photography & videography business. #themuskratisintheden
Mike Curtis
The salesperson Kenny, was very helpful. He answered all my questions. The store was first rate, well stocked, and staffed. This was my first visit to Pictureline, but it won't be my last!
Matt M.
When I started coming here years ago as a novice photographer, I felt like the sales people were unapproachable and maybe a little arrogant. I was wrong. After countless casual film purchases to last minute needs for same day shoots, I've discovered that they are just extremely knowledgeable, which can be intimidating to the beginner. I've also discovered after living out of state for a short while, that we are extremely lucky to have a store like this. I now go out of my way to support this local gem whenever I can.
amraKarma
Went in yesterday to get some lighting for my eBay listings and my green screen. Staff (Tom) was very helpful in describing & finding me the right set-up. I'm happy with my ring light. Thanks!
Thor Kallerud
Get To Know Your Camera Class
Outstanding Class by Jens Nielsen! Jens' positive energy was inspiring and contagious. Great combination of learning about the camera, how to shoot great pictures and hands on experience outside of the class room. Highly recommend taking this class. Thanks Jens!!
Eric Larson
I really love Pictureline. I feel like they always cater to me. Gotta love that personalized service. I just want to go there and talk about gear all day, and I bet they would let me! Go Pictureline!
Joe Clynes
I don’t usually write reviews but I feel that when I receive service above and beyond my standard expectations I need to acknowledge it. I was in the market recently for a Canon R5, NOT a cheap purchase. I have been a dedicated B&H Photo customer for almost 20 years so for this major purchase I had every intention of using them again. Think again, the R5 was out of stock with no ETA. Guess I will try Adorama...out of stock, Unique Photo...out of stock.
I was bummed. Read on the DPReview Canon forum others complaining about no being able to find the R5 in stock.Another forum member wrote about their great experience with their local camera store, Pictureline having stock. I was convinced that they must be mistaken, NO ONE HAD THE CANON R5 available. Went to the Pictureline website and started a chat via text with Chris B., long story short... I had package on my door step a few days later with the impossible to find R5 in it!
Thank you Chris B and Pictureline, your response, communication and service were above and beyond GREAT. I am a new and dedicated PICTURELINE customer. Cannot wait to work with Chris and the staff there again soon!

Lochlan Olson
Pictureline is the absolute best spot for every photography need imaginable. Their customer service is wonderful, we met with Berkley, who could not have been any nicer or more helpful. He, along with all of the staff, was/were so knowledgeable about each product we had questions about. They will demonstrate things for you and even help you put things together. Ha ha! Berkeley is now a friend for life!! So happy to have such an amazing place to go for all of my photography needs!!

Jill Tabatabaei
Pictureline has top quality service; I am so impressed with how knowledgeable and friendly everyone is that works there. I ask so many questions every time I go in and they have been able to answer every single one. They are also quick to help me every time. I’ll never go anywhere else for camera supplies/advice.
Andrew S
Best camera shop in Utah! Every time I go into Pictureline they always have what I’m looking for (and usually more) Colin is always extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the products and equipment they are selling!
Joanna McIntire
We are professional photography company from Cincinnati Ohio here in Utah shooting a wedding. We had problems with our equipment and found this company on the web. Their prices for rental are reasonable, the guys there are accommodating and very helpful. If we are ever in town again we will definitely come back.
Zachery Wall
Very smart knowledgeable staff. Went in to rent a lense they had it in stock at a very reasonable price. Last second we changed our minds to a different lense and they helped us out and swapped it even though we were being difficult. Great place would for sure recommend it. They have a ton of great products and it's a great price.
Ernie Maldonado
These folks are AMAZING. Responsiveness is World Class. I have been dealing with another vendor for years but the experience with Chris and Pictureline has been so awesome that I have decided to switch vendors.
Thanks Chris and Pictureline. You have gained a customer for life.
Kevin Low
This is one awesome place to come to get your camera fix. Incredibly knowledgeable staff and great selection of brands of cameras. They carry everything you need or want camera related. They sell GoPro and DJI quadcopters and teach camera classes and the list goes on and on. By far the best camera store I have ever been to. My advice is to just go there and experience what I have experienced and learn and spend your hard earned money. They will never pressure you into buying a camera or anything in their store. They will work with your budget and get you set up with a camera that will bring you some joy in your life. Thank you Pictureline for all that you do for my wife and I.
Ralph Torres
I’ve had a Great experience shopping with Pictureline .They have great customer service. I get all my stuff on time and in perfect condition. I wouldn’t shop anywhere else.
scot zimmerman
Like Kent Miles, I too have been a loyal Pictureline customer since they opened. Its a comfortable place to do business with friendly, knowlegable staff. Their prices are fair and the after sale support amazing. As a commercial photographer people often ask me questions about photo gear. My simple answer is always "just go down to Picturline, they'll take care of you". Jens and his staff have truly earned my business.
Brian Dobson
Tom is my go-to for anything needed, and has never steered me wrong. Everyone is exceptionally personable, very knowledgeable, and the equipment and accessories are all top shelf. Not inexpensive, but when one really looks at "online" neither are they. I always prefer to shop local as well whenever possible, and Pictureline's customer service and product offerings make them an easy choice. My only wish might be later weekday hours, or perhaps extended weekend hours. The online store and rental options help ease the shorter hours though. 5 Stars
Jake Law
Everyone here is always so helpful, I went once wanting to buy a specific camera and walked out with a different one that was much better. The rentals are very great too! They always are on time, have what I want, and the items are clean and in perfect working order.
Pictureline is the best.
Chloe Huang
The staff were super friendly and helped me with all I need! I got my camera cleaning kit and they also taught me how to use it. You’d feel like they treat you like a 5 star hotel customer.
Ashley Doane
Pictureline is AMAZING! I have been a wedding photographer for about 3 years now and I will ONLY go to them for all of my camera needs. I love being greeted by their upbeat, amazing team each time I walk through their door. I’ve heard a few horror stories about photographers and weddings with corrupt card issues or damage, and I had yet to experience something like that. Recently I shot a wedding in Arizona and when I got home my card said there were NO IMAGES... I couldn’t find them anywhere. I panicked and felt sick thinking of what this would mean if I couldn’t recover someone’s wedding memories! But I felt confident that if anyone could help me, it was pictureline. I went immediately to them and they were able to recover everything on my card for an awesome price. I highly recommend them!!
Dave Taylor
I would highly recommend Pictureline for all of your camera needs. My brother and I have been using their services for the past couple years and have been enormously impressed with their customer service. I love to stop in their store and browse around at the latest gear and have always found the staff to be very professional, helpful, and yet, not pushy at all. Having rented their equipment on several occasions, I recommend them without equivocation!
Jeff & Jeneane Everett
I have never written a review for any company or service I have received. But I have to say how much I love this store! Yesterday I was helped by Chase. He went above and beyond explaining various items I was interested in. Being relatively new to photography he never tired of my questions. He could have shown me items far above my novice level. Instead he helped me with those things I was interested in that would work for me, even though the items were less expensive. This store will be the only place I will purchase anything for this wonderful hobby of mine. The staff is very knowledgable and friendly. I have been in a couple of other camera stores and was made to feel unwelcomed. Love this store and keep up the good work.
abhi k
This review has been pending since long.. was browsing to look at the availability for a new lens to pre-order and found picture line, ordered it right away and started bugging the store on the status as the item was back ordered due to high demand (BTW it was a Sigma 24-70mm Sony emount - heavy but the pictures are sick). Max was the person who helped me get my lens one-time, infact a day before. If you are planning on buying any lens or sensor, he is the go to guy. Every one in the store are very patient in answering your questions. Going forward this will be my store to order stuff.
Brian Childree
UPDATED: I had an issue with a piece of Pictureline equipment that damaged a piece of my own personal equipment. They have gone above and beyond to rectify the issue and make sure my equipment is back in it's original state. Their dedication to resolving the issue and getting me the help I needed is top notch. I will continue to be a customer of Pictureline and recommend them to anyone looking for high quality equipment rental.
Donna DellaPietra
What an amazing experience ordering from Pictureline. The customer service was top notch and Chris B was more than helpful. This really means alot because you just don't find that kind of service anymore.. I will shop here for all my photography needs!!
I will also recommend to everyone I know :))
Thank you so much PICTURELINE
J Dial
YESS!!! Honestly one of my Favorite stops in the city for anything camera. Pictureline and Allens Camera are really the best players in the game in Utah. They have great middle range camera/camcorders and high end medium format options.
The are a little more $$$$ but they really have all the bases covered. I've been happy with every experience.
I had a problem with my Fuji XT20 and they helped me every step of the way. Def a happy customer so far.
Michael Bell
Recently Pictureline went well out of their way to take care of me. I didn't even have to ask, they proactively did the right thing. We are very lucky to have a store like this here in Utah, the few bucks you MAY save buying online doesn't compare to the value and peace-of-mind that comes with the service you get buying from Pictureline. Thanks again.
Ryan Mills
If you're looking for a spot to do all your photography shopping, Pictureline is my go-to. I'm always met with positive and knowledgeable staff that work hard to get you what you need.
John McVey
Pictureline is a great camera store, conveniently located in downtown SLC with free parking. They have a knowledgeable staff, great selection and competitive prices. They are one of the few dealers in the northwest that stock Panasonic micro four thirds system cameras such as the G9, G85 and GX9. We got a better deal on the new G9 than we could get online. Highly recommended!
Kasey Yeagley
These guys know how to stage a store, the layout is clean, organized and visually appealing. Very well stocked and presently phenomenally. The staff is grade A, always willing to help, knowledgeable, and patient. I'd recommend pictureline to anyone looking to gear up for photography or video work.
Alison Thomas
So initially I was told on the phone that this place had a tripod plate that upon arriving, it ended up they didn't carry it. But they made it right. They apologized profusely and called a local sales rep to find 2 other local stores I could try to get what I needed. Wow! What great, empathetic service! I would go out of my way to patronize their store again given the great experience I had.
Tristan Hall
Great camera store. Staff are knowledgeable and the environment modern and inviting. Didn't have any Olympus gear but otherwise a wide selection of premium and high quality brands or products.
Josef Tornick
In all my years of being a professional photographer, Pictureline has been the best supplier, bar none. Fast, courteous, and responsive. I am a very happy customer!
Bayler Moab Gunnell
Such an awesome store with fantastic staff. I needed to rent a lens for a shoot and it was quick and painless. They were super helpful and seriously have just about anything you could ever need for a camera.
Ty Anderson (Tydyed)
Chris was extremely helpful getting me exactly what I needed (and brand new gear) in time for our tight deadline even before other places had them available. Highly recommend Pictureline. Will use them again!
Phong Nguyen
Bought a Sony a6000 camera at a price much lower than other retail stores. At first, I thought it might be a bait-and-switch game. But I got the camera a week later, totally brand new. All in all, I'm happy with their customer service. I would definitely buy my photography gears from them again in the future.
Adan Banda
Always a fun time coming here. The staff is always helpful and knowledgeable. Their prices are competitive and they're rental services are top notch. Never had an issue with their inventory.
Benoit PIRET
I highly recommend Pictureline. Excellent place to get camera gear. Excellent customer service. I bought the last SL2 body they had (which is already hard to find in the US) and unfortunately it had a dust spec inside the RVF. Something Leica would have fixed easily. But the guys from Pictureline went above and beyond to get a brand new replacement body directly from Leica into my hands within just a few days. It’s pretty exceptional because at the time I’m writing this review it’s impossible to source a SL2 in the US......
they managed support through text messages, very cool.
I ended up getting my GFX100 from there as well. They were able to score me a lens that was back ordered so it would shift the same time as the body and overnight. Perfect!
Brandon Woods
Absolutely amazing customer service and excellent prices! I worked with several of the employees and didn’t have a bad experience with any of them. Very knowledgeable and willing to help. I will definitely be back for all my photography needs, well worth the 3 hour drive!!
DREW HOLMES
All of the guys at Pictureline are amazing! I particularly work with Chris and Max when I go in. As a photographer & Filmmaker I am constantly renting the appropriate gear for shoots, very rarely do they not have what I need. I'll continue to use pictureline as my primary source for anything photography related.
Story Time Inc.
In a time where buying things online is so easy, I am so grateful to have this store. The customer service makes getting what I need simple and enjoyable, then the competitive pricing takes care of my bottom line. After 15 years as a photographer, I don't shop anywhere else.
S M
Best photo gear selection in town. if you are a pro then more than likely you are already shopping here. Prices are a little higher than online but well worth supporting local brick and mortar business! Great rental department and staff. Hosts many seminars and classes during the year.
Wil Dobson
If it weren't for social distancing, I'd had wandered all through here. Website chat feature worked great, they helped me get set up with financing, and were enthusiastic to show me the equipment I wanted to see. Wish this store was in Dallas where I live. I will return!
Robert Jorgensen
I always love visiting pictureline. The only issue is that I always want to spend so much money there. The staff is great and very friendly. They are very knowledgeable and able to answer all my questions. I have taken their picture classes and am very pleased. The classes are very informative and pictureline gives so much back for the small fee they charge for the class. I would visit this local shop over a big box store any day!
Nate Taylor
Kenny is the man! Anytime you go in there ask if he is there, he is super accommodating and won’t rest until you’re taken care of. Honestly everyone there is super knowledgeable and can help with any issue or question you have. Super solid team over there. Thanks guys!
Bruno Langevin
I called Pictureline on Wednesday at 3pm EST to confirm the availability of the new Panasonic 12-32mm Micro 4/3 lens and the possibility to ship overnight as I am flying to Asia this Friday. The gentleman double-checked everything and confirmed it would work, and what do you know 18 hours later the well-packaged box was on my porch in Upstate NY. Neither B&H nor Amazon could do this!
Can I just say I am now a customer for life? Congrats on the excellent service and the caring.
Bruno L.
Matt Graham
Pros helping pros (and also helping schlubs like me). If you're looking for premium gear, with the benefit of talking to people about how to use it, this is your place. It's also the only legitimate camera store in Utah, as far as I know. Beautiful store. Be sure to check hours as they close rather early, especially on Saturday.
Steven Fogarty
Jens runs a very tight ship. Very clean, orderly store. Steve Jobs would approve. Very low employee turnover. Strict unfriendly return policy. Most times PictureLine gets that they sell customer service, and not camera gear that can be gotten more cheaply online. When customer service is excellent & staff takes the time to educate it's the right place to learn about & buy gear. When Jens leans on staff to cut short that education, one might as well buy online for less, right?
Jonathan Williams
Best camera store in Utah. They can provide gear and repair services for anyone from the hobbyist to large studios. Great employees, large store. Very fun to visit and shop. Keep up the good work!
Danielle Kinella
I've been to Pictureline several times. Pricing-wise, they're a bit higher than the 'net for some things but you'd expect that from a store front. The store is cool, very cool, and clearly a lot of thought has been put into the design and arrangement. It's always busy, which I think is a good sign.
The location is fair - I come from the University where I'm studying film and photography and getting to it from public transportation can be pain.
It's seems like Pictureline is a Canon shop and I shoot Nikon. They do sell some Nikon kit.
My biggest complaint is the service. Wow (and what is it with the photography stores in Salt Lake City?? I'm from Chicago and I'm used to rude people, but wow ...) The service has been lukewarm on average. I've been to store four times and once my attendant was a woman (Stacy, I think) and she was great! She helped me find what I needed, and even searched the 'net to help me find what something they didn't have. Also, I was buying lenses and Bryce (I believe) made some suggestions that helped me avoid overspending.
And then there's this guy (I found his pic on their website) whose name I won't mention: I was buying a UV filter for a 28mm Nikon AI-s lens. He immediately told me he'd never heard of an AI-s lens - and in a condescending tone of voice that suggested I was an idiot for even thinking there was such a thing. Thinking perhaps my tone was wrong, I tried to explain what I was looking for and he was like: "Did you bring the lens with you?" When I didn't have it, he just smiled and nodded as if he knew it all along ... I was an idiot.
At one point, he even said, "Who still shoots film?" Hello? Really? Film students, some photographers . . . whatever.
He was able to find me an extra battery for a Nikon D600, but only amid a seeming endless barrage of personal questions - and when he found out I was a photography student at the U, the questions became even a bit more personal. Really, sport, I'm looking for a UV filter, not a date.
The second time I was with a friend who was trying to buy a memory card for his new camera. The salesman snapped at him, saying he had never heard of that kind of memory card. Fortunately, my friend had brought his camera manual with him and showed the salesman where the manual specifically stated this type of memory card should be used. The salesman then stated that Nikon was a Japanese company and their manuals were translated and sometimes the translations were wrong. Seriously???
In both cases, this was the same salesperson. All the other salespeople have been nice (so I upgraded my service review to good from poor). And to the salesman's credit, he did find a working memory card for my friend.
Still, these experiences kind of cured me of the cool design and appeal quality. Now I just order my stuff on Amazon where it's cheaper, gets delivered to my door, and I don't have to be treated like I have no idea what I'm talking about.
EZHumble
These guys seemed pretty legit. I called early innthe morning on a Saturday asking if they had a camera I was looking for. They had one left and were happy to set it aside for me. Surprisingly these guys had a better price than amazon had plus I was able to recieve my camera that same day. When i got inside they had plenty of staff and the wait wasn't bad at all. Ill be going here for all my photography needs!
Trevor Hooper
Great selection of professional gear. Definitely the go-to spot in Salt Lake City for professional photographers. It's a little on the pricey side, but they've got a great staff and big inventory. They also rent equipment.
Shannon Peterson
I recently purchased a DSLR camera and wanted to take a few classes on how to use it. I signed up for the classes Pictureline offered and I couldn't be happier I did. The classes were informative yet to the point and the instructor, David, made the class fun and enjoyable. The store is very clean and well organized and the staff was always ready to help out. I will definitely be back to Pictureline in the future.
Amalia Reyes
Everyone in here is incredible but Berkley goes above & beyond. Grateful this place even exists! This is the place. Seriously. They def take care of you here.
Bruce Ellsworth
I'm a fairly new customer of pictureline and am very impressed by their employees! Chase did a great job cleaning my camera sensor and Tom was very knowledgeable in answering my questions. I have attended 3 camera classes taught by Dave and Jens and have learned so many new things I can easily apply in the real world.
Parker Burns
Amazing group of guys. They helped me find the perfect camera for my business. They never tried to upsell me, and even told me when I DIDNT need to spend more. Experts in their field, and as trustworthy as they come.
Devin Weder
Pictureline is a great local source for photography equipment. I've shopped there a few times over the last few years and they are always helpful and never pushy, even when I am not ready to purchase and just shopping around.
Jazmin Ellzey
Walked in to see if they could help me with a badly stuck filter on my camera. There was no wait and after 3 different attempts they got it off; lense and filter unharmed. It had been stuck like that for 3 years. Best people, best service! I would highly recommend.
Romain Han
Once I bought the camera from pictureline, I always buy photography gear from them, service, price are 5 stars no doubt.
Jarvey Phantom
Great customer service unfortunately they could not fulfill my order due to Covid. That's understandable and I appreciate them trying.
I only wish they would communicate with you first, if you have bought a product and they don't know have the product in stock/are waiting for a shipment. I ended up waiting a week for my item to never ship before complaining and now I have to wait another week to receive the refund. It's frustrating having ur money tied up for 2 weeks. Thank god I contacted customer service or I would have had to wait longer. You don't even get a receipt sent to ur email from this company when you buy something. Very disappointed by the whole situation. :(
Good luck to this company though and I'm sure this isn't representative of their normal operations. Covid has affected us all so again its understandable. But communication can make things easier for both parties.
Travis Stout
The staff is super helpful and knowledgeable. They have an awesome selection of cameras and accessories. Dave is the guy for lighting question. Highly recommend.
Tim Phillips
I’ve had nothing but great experiences at Pictureline. Starting with Tom helping me buy my camera, Max’s training, everyone in rentals, and Berkley teaching me more about my new gimbal in 5 minutes than I learned from hours of online videos, every interaction has been fantastic.
Prasanth G S
A friend of mine introduced me to Pictureline.. I am so happy to know this shop and the people there for my Photography needs.Very nice guys, excellent customer support, very safe and responsible shipping and excellent deals!
Chris Davis
Their week day deals on rentals are great and so is their overall selection. I was trying to rent a DJI gimbal one time and they didn't have one but they gave me the contact info for a guy that they knew that did have one, which I thought was exceedingly cool. It's not only a great place to rent from, buy gear from, or have your camera serviced at, it's a great place to make connections and keep your finger on the pulse of the SLC photo/video industry.
kyle johnson
I'm not hard to please, but renting a backdrop for my event was the way to go because I didn't have one. I found one to rent here and went over the agreement which said money would be taken out if it was dirty and they would have to clean it after your done with it.
Well looks like they didn't enforce that rule. I got this backdrop cloth set up right where wanted it and spent a good amount of time rigging it up how I wanted. Low and behold it had circle stains in random spots. I wouldn't have been able to rearrange it to where you wouldn't see the stains.
I had to spend more time than I wanted in post processing spot removing these stains on all the pictures from the event. Time and Money down the drain.
Don't rent backdrops from here or you'll spend a lot more time in post processing than you care to spend. It looked very tacky and am going to just invest in one of my own to save me the troubles.
(Update) Pictureline reached out to me and told me they would take care of the rental issue I was facing and put a better process in place. They responded to my review quick and professional and feel in better hands with renting from them again. I'm happy they took care of me and addressed my concerns and am sure you will be happy as well!
Matthew Hansen
A large, modern photo store with a great variety of cameras and equipment. My wife and I have purchased many things here and have always left satisfied. The staff are friendly, super helpful and knowledgeable.
Shawn Richards
Pictureline is a great store for all your photo needs. The staff is wonderful and the pricing is very reasonable. I would definitely recommend them when you are looking for help with all of your camera, printing, drone ... needs. 👍👍👍👍👍 …
Kira
Everyone here is so helpful, and they make it extra fun to invest in new items. I recently bought a lens here, and they answered all of my questions, and really made me feel at ease with the large purchase I was making. I love this place!
Al Steiner
Serious high end camera store focused on the professional photographer. Fairly well stocked with a helpful staff. The big brands are well represented: Sony, Canon, Leica, Panasonic, Nikon, etc.
Bill Fritsch
I just bought a $3000 Nikon D800 from Pictureline. This was on online purchase and i needed the camera shipped to a 3rd party address on a rush basis. Katie helped me and this was perhaps the best customer service experience I have had in years. She was helpful, communicated well, kept me informed, and confirmed when the product was shipped. She is terrific and of course because of her help I think Pictureline must be a terrific company by association. I will be buying much more from Katie... and Pictureline.
By the way I am not the midwest professional photographer Bill Fritsch. I am another Bill Fritsch in Seattle who happens to dig photography for fun and personal enjoyment.
Kori Laurel
I love Pictureline! Love it! They have always been so helpful. Stephanie is the greatest! She helped me with purchasing my Sony ZV-1 and I love it!
Cameron Howell
By far my favorite camera store! Their staff is knowlegable, friendly, and super helpful. The store itself has a very clean and professional look. I recommend Pictureline to everyone who is serious about photography.

Needed some film for our drive across the country. The guy who helped me brought me to the back room where they had the film refrigerators. He was polite, knowledgeable and fast which I appreciated because we had to get back on the road. If I'm ever back in town I'll definitely choose Pictureline first.

I showed up 10 minutes to close and the staff could not have been more supportive! In the span of 25 minutes they made sure a multi-card reader was compatible, demo'd a camera, and miraculously recovered a days worth of video that I was sure was lost on a CF card! Incredible! And I'm incredibly grateful! Pictureline rocks!
Dustin Knight
I went to this store twice! Better priced than others. Amazing selection and more items where available than I expected. Highly recommend this place if your just starting out on Youtube and want to make professional videos with amazing equipment.
Customer service was some of the best I’ve ever seen! I will be and they have a loyal customer for life. 45 minute drive for me but worth it!
Kylie
The staff here is so friendly and knowledgeable about cameras and gear. They didn't feel pushy into buying things. I would definitely recommend if you're looking into buying or if you simply just have questions or what to see/hold things in person.
Jordan Imlay
The best place to purchase or special order new professional camera and video equipment. The people are extremely helpful and you will always get what you came for. They have a great selection of film as well.

Customer service was prompt and professional. All my concerns and questions were handle appropriately and in a timely manner. Will recommend to family and colleges.

Excellent online experience! I was very hesitant to order from pictureline for the first time. I usually have negative experience ordering from unknown online resellers. They either send open/referb or damaged goods asking for me to contact the manufacture. Not this time, pictureline sent the Wacom Intuos Pro Tablet originally sealed and shipped/receive in 3 days. Thank you!

Colin at Picturline,
Was incredible. I had an older Cannon EOS5D and was unable to download photos. Colon was great, knowledgeable, and creative in helping me. Best of all the card reader he suggested worked great.
Becase of an injury to my right hand I did not think I would ever be able to use a nice camera again. Colin showed me the new mirrorless technology and how light the camera bodies are now. I hope to be able to upgrade in a few months. His kindness and time gave me hope of being able to pursue my love of photography. Thanks!
Andy Earl
Have always been a fan of this shop. Helpful and courteous staff with a lot of specialized knowledge. Wish they had a location in Utah County. Always worth the drive.
Dwight
Great camera rentals, friendly staff, an inviting atmosphere, and a very large clean retail space make this store wonderful. I just wish the prices were as competitive as some retailers like adorama. However as a local store it's great.
Geoff lewis
If I had another camera shop to go to I probably would but seeing that this is the last surviving one in town that I'm aware of it serves its purpose. Staff is helpful and courteous but the individual who helped me seemed like she should know more about camera specs and brand differences. Also lack of competition is reflected in the prices
Melody Leith
The only place to go for ALL things related to photography and video production. I always find exactly what I need, regardless of how obscure it might be. Even education and advice! The staff is extremely helpful, knowledgeable and polite. They offer classes too! Pictureline is a valuable resource that has been a key part of my creative career.
joseph mccroskey
A+ customer service. I had an issue with an order I needed by a certain date. Colin was very helpful and easy to get a hold of through the entire process to the end.
Kevin Johnson
Berkley is the best person I’ve done business with! His product knowledge is top notch. And the most honest person anywhere.
Richard Prehn
I have used Pictureline for my photo needs for years. Their staff is knowledgeable and always willing to go the extra mile when I need assistance. If I need something in a hurry that they don't have in stock they go out of their way to get it quickly.
Devin Baldwin
My sales rep worked very hard to find the right equipment for my needs, and went out of his way to get me the best price. I've traditionally purchased everything online for a variety of reasons, but I'll be purchasing locally from Pictureline a lot more in the future.
Christopher Pena
Best place in town, best costumer service , really good prices
Kevin Wellman
Great store and great employees. Every time I have been into the store I have been greeted immediately and asked if I need any assistance. They always have what I am looking for in stock and have very comparable prices.
Great place to shop for camera equipment!
Robbie Campbell
I've been going to pictureline for about 2 years now. They've always been helpful with the rentals I've made. Easy in and easy out. Recently I had a request that was more challenging. I rented an H6 Zoom to do some audio recording, sadly I totally forgot to take the audio files off the card onto my computer and returned the zoom. I came in the next day to see if maybe it was still on there... It wasn't, CRAP. When they realized my obvious panic, there were countless people rushing to help me out. They said a recovery was possible, to wrap this up they recovered it for and were super helpful in the process. Easily one of the best experiences I've had with a business. Shout out to Berkley!!
Kenan Powell
My first time there. The staff was amazing and very helpful. They were patient with all my questions and concerns. The store was pleasant and orderly.
Benjamin Bamba
I'm flying into Salt Lake City for a photoshoot and I needed to get a paper backdrop. I was going to ship one but the shipping price was crazy! Called back and talked with Matt and he said he would reserve one for me. Matt, sorry for sounding like a needy millennial, but thank you for taking the time and letting me know how things work at Pictureline. I appreciate you.
neptronix
Friendly staff, great selection of products. Spent plenty of time helping me chose a camera, and the prices were good. Wouldn't go anywhere else for my video/camera needs in the future.
Tony Siwek
Such an amazing and solid company. My order arrived quickly and Chris B. has been top notch at answering all of my questions regarding this product. Would definitely recommend this company hands down!
Lorena Rosser
Pictureline is always the place I go to for any of my camera needs. Wether is to purchase, repair or just even questions. They are always the most helpful.
Aaron Allsop
Pictureline is one of the few stores that I have been to where their prices are just as good as online prices, and sometimes even better. The staff is super helpful and actually know about cameras and photography so they answer all of your questions and know what you are talking about.
Kandace Meyer-Brewster
Loved this class! So much information condensed into 6 sessions - Jens and Dave did a great job keeping it interesting and fun.
Rita Stenzel
The best of the best. So helpful and kowledge staff. I had no lens hood for my new objectiv and there was nothing to buy at this moment so they rummaged about in their archive and found a lens hood in their rental deparment. Thank you so much. I have made great pictures in this vacation thanks to you.
Nate Jacob
Jacob was an absolutely awesome person to work with and ask questions. He knew everything I asked; and he took the time to break down aperture and iso and showed me several lenses and explained the difference between each one. He explained mirrorless vs mirrored cameras, talked about new products coming out; and made me feel completely comfortable with all my questions.
Jacob got 5 stars in my book, and if/when I buy something, even though they dont work on commission, I'd buy from him.
I don't give lower than 5 stars in a review, i either like it enough to take the time to type it out, or i dont review it at all, but two separate incidents have me scratching my head almost two hours after I left. While Jacob was showing me a product, I assume his boss(?) or someone walked up and asked if they could borrow or share the product. I dont mind sharing, but I have a hard time doing it while I have it in my hands and i'm learning it's features. Bad form on that guy's part, taking what I was looking to purchase, and place it in an older gentleman's hands; presumably because he had "more buying power". Still frustrated about that.
The second issue is that one of the employees walked up and asked "What's that big lens doing out?" Jacob, again, answered cordially and said something along the lines of, "I wanted to show that to him". The other employee then said, to me. "That lens is $3000; do you have $3000?" I did my best to play off the situation. First of all, whether I have the money or not is none of your business. Secondly, your customer service shouldn't change based on your view of who I am. Please don't judge a book by it's cover.
Jacob did great, and I hope you hire more people like him. Like I said, if I go back, it'll be because he treated me so well.
(Edited some words out.)

The store is open and beautiful. It can feel a bit uppity sometime if you don't get the right salesperson. I will always buy my gear because of their expertise. They have everything. Great rental selection.

Went in the store on Friday looking to rent a canon zoom lens with IS in the 100-300 range for Saturday. Gentleman told me that he had a 70-200 available and that he would reserve it for me. I was told to come back at 9:30am the next day for pickup and that the return would be the upcoming Monday. Arrived at 9:30 on Saturday for the pickup only to learn that my name was not in the system whatsoever and that all zoom canon lenses had been rented out for the day. ????? Did I just speak to a ghost or was the 5 minutes of typing he did the day before just an act for my sake? The only reason I'm not giving one star is because the lady helping me today was at least sympathetic and attempted to help by offering $10 off a 135 prime lens. Unfortunately not a lens I can use for this situation. As this is a paid client shoot, I am very suspect at renting from them in the future if information just suddenly disappears. Understandable if it was online but I talked to a person for this and was assured in this case. Just... Sigh... Now I have to check my credit card statement since I gave that information to reserve the lens.
Update: As peeved as I am about this situation there is something that can be said when the manager attempts to contact you the same day to try and remediate the issue. (Which is what Stacy did) Unfortunately the nature of my problem is difficult to fix but at the very least it's good to hear that they are trying to figure something out on their end. It's rare to see that from any company.
On a side note this update is not compensation driven since I went ahead and just bought the lens I needed. (Done with renting for awhile)
Mark McCormack
I had a great experience with Tom Jaeckel today. He was very helpful and know the products inside and out. We will definitely be going back for our photography needs.
Jeff E Jensen
There’s no better place than Pictureline for all of your phot and video needs!
Corey Ludwig
The staff here are amazing. They have a wide variety of different photography goods at a fair price. It's the only place I will get my supplies.
Aaron Stitt
PictureLine rocks! You have to check this place out. The facility is amazing, and they have everything you could ever want for both photographers and videographers. They actually have a specialist in audio, video, live shoots, editing software, photography, and whatever else you need. And they price match! Don't stop what your doing guys!
Amanda McKay
Every b time my husband needs a camera thing, this is where we're end up. And then we go to Ruby snap for cookies.
Ali Reynolds
We have been to this store a few times. Today we were helped by Berkley, which he was very friendly, helpful and informative. Made excellent suggestions. We really appreciate it. Thank you. We will be back!
Gary Arnold
The store staff are super friendly and knowledgeable. Chase helped me with a purchase and he has gone above and beyond by following up, keeping me updated and checking in. Their prices may be more than some online sources but it is completely worth it for the personal touch and customer service you receive.
Mark Greer
As owner of Video Wholesale Services in Holladay, where I have for 30 years been making the area's highest quality film and video transfers and computer repair , daily I need frequent trips for equipment... and locally, Pictureline has it in stock at 9 AM and I mean all the higher quality stuff that lasts. Studio lighting, tripods, By Manfrotto, cameras and lenses by Canon, Nikon etcetera in a beautiful atmosphere with knowledgeable sales staff. The prices are extremely competitive with internet pricing so I'd rather shop local and here at Pictureline!
Brandon Burk
I recently needed a hard to find part from Profoto. Dave W. assisted me over the phone and was able to get the part shipped in from Profoto. I was in store today returning a rental. I was looking to buy one of the cases that my rental was given in. Dave could hear what I was looking for clear across the room while someone else was trying their best to assist me. Dave, walked up to me and handed me just what I was looking for. Thanks Dave and Pictureline.
Trent Erwin
Great place to rent gear at. I’m from out of town and rented here for a project I had in the area. They had exactly what I needed. Easy to pick up and return. The team was very nice and helpful. Prices were very reasonable. Highly recommend.
Mackenzie Knight
The entire staff at Pictureline jas been nothing short of incredible. I'm welcomed everytime I walk in and they are eager to help.me with any questions I have. They have even.helped with a situation through another company. They care so much about each customer that they couldn't let the issue go unsolved. Pictureline is hands down the best in the west. You will not be disappointed!!
Dave Boucher
Tom, Ken,
Seldom are thanks forwarded for being really great people and taking care of customers. It seems that most often you probably hear from folks when things are amiss. I want to thank you for your patience and putting up with me and my ball-head issues. You were both understanding and sought to resolve the problem to a satisfactory end. I know that dealing with issues of design and manufacturing flaws are never pleasant, but you both treated the situation as if were of paramount importance. Thank you for spending your valuable time dealing with this issue and bringing a resolve. I am very pleased with the Kirk ball-head that I ultimately ended up with. Although it cost me a little more, I am far more comfortable and have confidence that it will not fail.
Shaun Miller
One of the best camera shops out there. If you’re looking for great customer service, extremely knowledgeable associates, and great gear at a great price, recommend checking them out.
Braden Bentson
Pictureline has the best customer service! On multiple occasions I’ve been surprised with how nice they have been to me.
