Reviews of Glazer's Camera

I shot photos for my son's LL baseball team and my daughter's volleyball team. In June, during one baseball game, my old D750's shuttle blade was stuck. It was a Thursday and there would be a volleyball tournament on Saturday. I brought the camera to Glazer's Friday morning. The lady there told me their technicians are busy and normal repair time took days including diagnose time. I told them about the tournament the next day and hope the best. Their technician, Pat called me about 1 hour later and told me his diagnosis. He said he would try his best, but he has other tasks before mine. I totally understood that and started thinking about renting a camera for the next day. In the afternoon, Pat gave me another call and told me my camera had been fixed. It was like a miracle. That really made my week! Thank you, Pat and Glazer's!

Comprehensive professional photo store with very knowledgeable staff. I have been impressed with the individual knowledge of the ranges of bodies and lenses I have purchased over the past few years. They bought and sold my Medium format gear for a fair trade price. Equally competitive with the BIG camera supply stores. Often I will ask to hold a body with the type of lenses I own. I have bought Sony, Nikon, Sigma, Tamron and was introduced to Peak Design here. Great range of batteries and cards. Unfortunately I live in Alaska and cannot attend the numerous photo events they host. Truly this is a Pro photo store. Rentals..used..internet..repairs..advice..education. mandatory stop for me whenever I travel to Seattle

Glazer’s is one of the last, great camera stores in the area. I had been researching some new cameras and decided to go in to see them in person. The staff member knew that I was just continuing research and answered all my questions and then some. There were no high pressure sales tactics, and no “but now ‘cuz the price is going up” talk. Rather, they’re incredibly knowledgeable, professional photographers, themselves, who know that you’ll be back to buy from them.

Roman Mendoza

Jimmy the salesman was awesome and took plenty of time to answer all of my questions before I decide to purchase a camera. I shopped around and you would be hard pressed to find a better deal than Glazers. They have everything you need and also a good selection of used gear as well. They offer classes and have free parking underneath the store through the alley... if you are looking to buy a camera or camera supplies and accessories look no further.

Kyle Karraker

Forgot to pack my battery. They were a short walk from the hotel. The person behind the counter was very helpful and found the right batter as well as a travel charger. All for less than the original battery cost me at Batteries+.

Alissa Berger

Largest camera store I've ever seen. Had gear both new and used and all sorts of my favorite accessories, including chargers, filters, softboxes, scrims, tripods, bags, film, etc. But my favorite part of the store was the employees! There had to be at least 10 people working there, all of whom were experts in photography and could answer all your questions. Easily lost an hour of my time without noticing with the mirrorless and DSLR debate! FYI, they do repairs, rentals, classes, and 1-on-1 sessions.

Jeep Joseph

Great service, great and knowledgeable staff, amazing selection and prices. Got my tamron 24-70 2.8 for significantly under market value, and it was in perfect shape. I absolutely love that lens. I also got the nikon 70-300 4.5-5.6 g ed afs vr over the afp, as that what they suggested for my d600s. Also got a nikon sb910. All gear in perfect shape

James Dean

Cool camera store!! This store has it all.. literally just about anything camera related, tons of lights, accessories, and generous section of certified pre-owned gear. Even have a section for audio needs, don't forget to check upstairs for all kinds of stuff you didn't even know you wanted!!

We've been buying our lighting equipment from Glazers for the last 40 plus years. It's amazing to see a company so well run for so long. Kevin Dubal in the lighting department helped us this time. He took the time to understand what was needed and really present us with some great options. It's overwhelming with so many new things on the market. Thanks so much Kevin, you made a big purchase for us feel like the right one!

Sahil Bhalla

I gave my camera in for repair today and even though it would take some time to get an estimate, I decided to look around to see if I wanted another camera body. Brennan was amazing, answered all my questions, gave me advice and was patient with me all throughout. To add to the great experience, I was not once pressured into buying something instantly. More so than often, I have seen stores sell what they have in stock rather than educate their customers and let them make an informed decision. I would definitely recommend checking this place out for cameras, lenses and accessories. The repair (or lack thereof) of my camera won't influence this review because of the great interactions I had here!

Carson Productions

My first interaction with glazers staff was amazing, The man was very interested in helping me and asked me about where i was from, how i was doing etc. He got me everything i needed in a fast and orderly manner, i checkout and leave. I realize 15 minutes later that i need a riser for the product i bought so i go back in and i get set up with a different man. at first he avoided me probably because i’m a teenager with a older camera setup in my hand, i tell him that i need a riser and he says “oh no that’s not meant for your camera setup” i said “i know i just want to see if it works for me and my satisfaction” he groans and gets me the part but continues to try to convince me that i don’t need this or i won’t use it for what people usually use it for. the camera store is great, the selection is great, some of the staff is great, some is not.

Abby H.

10/10 customer service from Cory and Chrispy today. I bought an FTZ mount from here in Feb but didn’t use it until now - was getting a lens error. They helped test it to figure out we had to update the firmware and saved the day! Super patient and gave great advice on how to use my Nikon Z6. Went above and beyond to get me set up - I was super thankful!

Ivan Kushner

UPDATE: The customer support and the technician (Pat) were professional in communication and did everything to resolve the situation 👍 Both the camera and the lense are now fixed. Before: Was passing the city as a part of my month long trip through US. Left the camera for the shutter repair. When it finally arrived at my doorstep a 300$ lense was broken. The repair was 270 US dollars plus they charged 20 for delivery.

Ben Lefor

Great selection, friendly and helpful staff. Best place to shop for camera gear in Seattle!

Marina B

My go to store for any photography, film and darkroom needs. I always appreciate photo events and workshops they organize. Especially when you come for a workshop and able to test gear in real world before buying it. I also have only positive experience with rentals.

Malorie Kerouac

I've been going to Glazers since I first started shooting ~5-6 years ago now. I bought my first 'professional camera' there : ). I shoot professionally and have needed less new gear in recent years, but recently wanted to try getting into printing high quality/fine art prints at home. I bought a printer from them and they have truly been so fantastic. Over the years whenever I wanted to try something new (new gear, getting into lighting, studio setups, and now printing) they always have someone there that is incredibly caring, excited for me, and committed to finding a solution that serves me above all else. Bill in particular helped me today with printing needs, and was the one who helped me with studio lighting a few years ago. He is such a special soul, Glazer's is lucky to have him, and I am lucky to have Glazer's! So grateful for them <3. thanks guys!

Rio Rados

Lights, camera and lots of action! This is a candy store for every camera lover from typical to kitschy. You’ll find practically everything you need to meet your photographic needs here. There’s demos, classes and even helpful staff who’ll not only answer your questions but even teach you if needed. Great for everyone from beginner to advanced photographers.

Sanaullah Jannisar

The service at this store is literally the best service I have ever experienced. The people working here are amazing. Went in for a firmware update and they took no time I was feeling so much energy and attention in this place definitely they will be on top of market. I was asked multiple times if I have questions or have I been helped. They really really take care of their customers. Mike the manager was awesome in helping out with my lens purchase too. Trust me people you’ll walk out of this store with only regret of not spending more time in there. They have lots of variety. Everyone working in there is wonderful. My interaction was mostly with Emily and I feel like she has perfected the art of customer service.

Tyler Kopp

I was searching endlessly for a Sony A7Siii. Emailed them to see if they had one in stock and they surprisingly had two left! Daniel understood how much I wanted the camera and put it one on hold while I made the transaction on the website! I can tell this company looks after their customers. Thanks Daniel!

Jordan Murphy

What a wonderful camera store! I've lived in several states and always frequent the local camera store and quite honestly this is one of the best I've ever seen! An amazingly knowledgeable and friendly staff combined with a great deal of varied and quality products at good prices! Today I came in to check out the Godox AD200 flash system and found that the prices were the same here as online. I had some questions and Clara was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and took great care of me! After talking about the flash system for a while as well as her introducing me to a wonderful soft box, I ended up going with a couple of items and will probably be back soon for a couple more. After what I went downstairs to look at something in the camera section and the gentleman who helped me was also extremely knowledgeable and friendly. About a week or two ago I went into take a look at the Canon EOS R. I was helped by yet a different gentleman who is also extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I'm very happy with this store and glad to live near it. I will definitely be back for more products and I encourage you to stop by if you're in the area! They also have a wonderful rental department which is a couple of blocks away and right next to the rental department is a very helpful camera repair shop.

Andy Shepard

I want to like Glazers as a local pro, but it’s just no longer my store. Don’t get me wrong, it’s been a fabulous place to shop over the last decade, but unfortunately the sales team has gone for helpful to misleading and unwillingly to admit their own misinformation. Long story short, I went in to buy a lot of new video gear and was told a specific kit was expandable and I could add single units to the system as my business grew for that particular need. Three weeks later and I’m ready to expand that system! I come in the purchase another unit and am told (by the same salesperson that sold me the gear) that it’s not actually an option to expand the system as originally described. Ok no problem, I can trade you the small kit for the large kit, I’ll even take the 10% restock fee hit, I’m just excited to get the right gear. Nope, they’ll purchase the three week new gear at 55% of retail from me, but I’m not able to trade up. I based the decision to purchase the small kit entirely on the expandability of the system described to me by the salesperson. That salesperson was wrong and they just don’t care. Fortunately in all of this, Amazon has the system I need at $50 cheaper that’s Glazers with next day. Bummed that I’m no longer interested in supporting local. But that’s just how things have played out with Glazer’s inability to grow as a company that supports loyal customers. Best to order from your couch at this point.

Mikel Carr (Reckless Thor)

Glazers is an absolutely excellent camera store with top notch customer service.

Jakob Stever

Dan was extremely helpful and answered any questions we had about Canon and Sony cameras, as well as other very knowledgeable staff members.

Dale Godfrey

A photographer's biggest and best toy store. Daniel provided the best customer service. Well worth the trip from California. Glazer's needs to open a store in SF Bay Area!!

Simon

Great place for everything, but they tried to replace my whole lens when only one $10 part was broken.

Jessica Benner

Everyone I've dealt with at Glazer's has been very passionate and knowledgeable. I appreciate that they are honest about their experiences, even if it means potentially not making a sale: I buy most of my gear here purely because I appreciate the level of honesty, professionalism, and expertise I always experience. Their used gear is also often an absolute steal, even when like new, and their warranty on it is generous.

Daniel Aaron

Good prices and sales, lots of inventory and cool gear to choose from. Staff was very friendly and directed me to the best bang for my buck instead of upwelling me. Definitely will come back

Kevon Wick

EXCELLENT camera store. I bought a brand new Leica M11 from them, and the unthinkable happened (for Leica); after 3 1/2 days, it stopped working; defective. I took it back, and there was absolutely no hassle; they put me on the list to get the next one that came in, called the Leica rep to alert him of the defect; the whole 9 yards. They couldn't have provided better customer service. I picked up the new camera, and am happily shooting away. This is a store staffed by people who love photography as much as their customers; they even have sheet film for view cameras, something that's rare to find. One of the relatively few businesses left in Seattle with very personalized service.

Em Nielsen

I’ve genuinely never left a review before, but I set an alarm to remind me because I was SO happy with the wonderful experience I had. I was greeted by a woman who was incredibly warm and friendly, asking about my travels rather than rushing to get me out the door. I came to get film developed and as they don’t offer this, she gave me a flyer with a long list of local shops who could which I was SO impressed with. I was then referred to Mike to help with my camera shutter not working. Turns out it was just the battery which he got replaced within 30 seconds, before taking the time to thoroughly answer all the other questions I bothered him with. I really appreciate the employees not only getting me taken care of, but being so incredibly kind throughout the process! I left the store with a big smile on my face thanks to the wonderful customer service and I absolutely plan to return next time I’m in Seattle. Thank you for making my day!!

Robert Pirnie

The best. Period. Helpful, knowledgeable associates. Massive inventory. Great hands on experience. Stills or video, they have it all. Lots of accessories, too. It's over by 30 miles from my home but I'll be back again and again.

Steven Spencer

Dion was amazing I showed the picture he knew exactly what I needed. Prices are competitive to Amazon. Customer for life.

M Wahaj Khan

This place is heaven for photographers and film makers. The people are very smart and extremely helpful. The gear there is high quality and the service is immaculate. Have lucky to have such an amazing store in Seattle!!

Todd Mowen

Great Camera store and knowledge staff! Thank you for your help while I was working in Seattle!

Akanksha Sharma

Went there for Nikon Z7 launch event. It was fun. we got to use the camera as well.

Tim Hennessey

Recently purchased a lens from Glazer's Camera and would highly recommend speaking with Dion. Their professionalism, knowledge, and friendliness made the purchasing experience great. Thank you, Dion!

JASN

Jimmy was very helpful, answered all my questions, got me the best setup for my needs. Thank you!

Henry T

Super nice. I tried out a vertical grip and a lens and they never made it feel like it was a hassle or waste of their time to be helping me out. They also told me they do lens rentals which are super easy and inexpensive ways to try out a lens. I will definitely be going here again for any gear I need!

Ali Khettouch

I was lucky enough to get my Red Komodo in there. They were very nice.

amir yarchi

My DSLR broke. Literally. Glazer's fixed it, and when I came back few days later with another me mechanical issue they sent it to Canon in California and make sure that I'll get it back, fully fixed, at no extra cost. It's my first experience with them, and it's the kind of service that will get me back.

Christopher Walker

Camera heaven, staffed by friendly and knowledgeable individuals to help you pick out the right piece of gear for you. Dangerous for the wallet. Test gear before you buy it by renting a lens.

Justin Johnson

Can't say enough good things about this place and staff. I stopped in yesterday, June 12, after making a two-hour drive with the intention of trading in some old camera gear. I am severely deaf and masks can make it difficult to communicate (I usually rely on lip-reading to help). Multiple staff members went out of their way to communicate everything I need in a way that made me feel like a valued and important customer. Not only that, I received more in trade value than I expected. If you live in Western Washington, do yourself a favor: skip Amazon and go visit Glazer's in person. Kudos to a great store and great staff.

Lushen Wu

My Fuji was acting up so I took it in for a look. The manager (Mike) and everyone else I talked to was really friendly and helpful. Amazed that they'll have a technician look at your gear without charge to figure out the problem.

Joyce Lam

Huge shout out to Jason. We came in to look for new lenses for our cameras and he could not have been more patient and helpful. He even let me take the camera outside to test out the lenses he recommended! He was super knowledgeable and provided great insight. He listened to what we wanted/needed and was able to answer our questions. He really knows his stuff! We will definitely be back once we are ready to buy our new lenses. The rest of the staff were super friendly and kind as well.

Николай Сивов

I love those guys!! Excellent store, prices are good. Everything you need for video/photo you can find here

Neil Gatpandan

Truly a top notch business! These guys are great at having anything and everything you need on the shelf. Great stock on new/used gear, 35mm/120 film, printing supplies, studio, video, and just about any accessory you can think of. Absolutely worth supporting this great business during this pandemic. All of the staff are wonderful, knowledgable, and super helpful. I work at a camera store here in Canada and can absolutely say the team at Glazer's does what they do very very well. Much love from the team here at Kerrisdale Cameras!

Logan Pulsifer

Fantastic camera store run by fantastic people. I bought from B&H Photo this last year and regret not supporting these fantastic people. Don’t make my same mistake. They have great deals on amazing new and used gear. Go check them out!

Isaiah Mann

Great experience thanks to Dion who helped me buy my first mirrorless camera. He gave a thorough comparison of the different systems' advantages. He found me a well-suited model (a Fujifilm X-T30) which wasn't the camera I expected to buy, but turned out to be a sublime match. I loved how Dion took the features I was looking for in a camera and clearly demonstrated them in action. He was also able to draw on his career experience to describe how these cameras handled in professional settings. Thanks for all the help!

Swap

The best Camera store in Seattle. It is centrally located. They’re the authorized dealers for many brands including Nikon and Tamron. Their staff are super friendly and want to help you find the right products. I’ve purchased my wide-angle lens and camera tripod here. Both the times, there was no pressure to purchase. The staff helped me by providing guidance after understanding my camera use and price range. I’d highly recommend this camera shop to anyone interested in purchasing camera/lens/accessories.

storo1001 storo

Glazers have a great range of equipment and good quality used cameras, lens and other accessories. Staff are mostly knowledgeable and helpful. But 10% + restocking fees means you cant simply return an item if unsatisfied with your purchase without incurring a cost

Helen Ell Tran

Expensive but there are so a lot of camera equipment to choice from. They also host informative events.

Larry McCormick

Today I traded some very old Leica cameras and a few Voigtlander lenses and other camera gear and finally got my new Fuji 100-400mm f4.5 zoom lens ! This is a great shop with great new gear from the best companies and loads of top quality used gear. I've gotten great deals on Fuji used lenses in such great shape they seemed new ! This is a great shop and everyone there is so helpful. They really know their cameras, both new and used ! But they are very picky ! In other words, their clients are very picky, which translates directly to the quality of their used gear. They don't deal in junk at all !

Brody Willis

Besides all the beautifully displayed video and photo equipment in their ground floor showroom; the loose film rolls and lighting gear upstairs; and the helpful and friendly staff, perhaps one of the best features of Glazer's is their integration of the fine folks from the erstwhile Phototronics repair shop. They can fix almost anything, and their prices are fair. The service life of my video and audio equipment has been extended immeasurably because of their wonderful work.

Harikrishnan Unnikrishnan

For camera or photography related stuff this is place to go in Seattle. I was looking for x-t2 from fujifilm which was like an outdated model and I couldn't find that on display anywhere else but in Glazer it was there. Also for folks just visiting the shop their parking is free. Hope it helps.

mgwilkens55 Wilkens

Have ordered three used lenses from them in the past couple of months. Each of them had a photo, but no condition description. Each of them was like new, competitively priced and arrived within a day or two of order. Will happily order from again, and again! Thanks!!

Laura Hayes

Glazer’s is like a complete wonderland for photographers. The staff is friendly and helpful. I wanted to give a quick shoutout to Lily, who I had an especially nice experience with. There was a mix up with the lenses that I had brought in to get cleaned, and she delivered excellent customer service while tracking them down and getting to me as quickly as possible. Thanks Glazers!

Tin

Great service, helpful staff, and excellent prices for cameras.

Dom Weldon

Always a pleasure shopping at Glazers. In and out in seconds usually. The few times I've had to return equipment everything was speedy. Also appreciate the underground parking. If you're a Seattle photographer, this is the place to be.

Suzanna Fisher

I had a great experience shopping here. I'm not terribly knowledgeable about cameras but I do like gear. The person who helped me (I think his name was Dion?) was incredibly well informed and was very pleasant to work with. He advised me on the best equipment that would suit my needs and didn't make me feel stupid when I asked questions. I will absolutely shop here again.

Roman Emin

The staff that works here is knowledgeable and very helpful. Here you'll be able to find the latest gear and accessories, also books, bags and even instant film and used equipment. They have a nice selection of classic film cameras and some more modern equipment at good prices. The staff will help you to find the appropriate gear for your needs and also help you to set it up. One of the best camera shops in Seattle.

Andrew Lonzo

Only problem with this camera shop is that my budget cant handle me visiting them. Love the knowledge and helpful staff, ready to field any question from the novice to pro. When I ask stupid questions they treat me with respect, when I ask hard pro questions they always find the guy in the shop that dealt with that. Only issue is their in store sale pricing versus online sale pricing is deceptive in how they calculate tax, which adds up on specialty lenses, they need to fix that.

Christopher Jones

Really nice shop. Professional nice people.

Ben Nussbaum

Went in with no intent to buy, and made that clear. Dion was a fantastic resource and help, providing me with information, opinions, and comparisons that made my time in store far more informative.

Joseph Walker

Easily one of the best camera stores in Seattle. The staff was very friendly and extremely helpful. I would consider this store to be the B&H of Seattle with its wide range of photography, videography, and lighting equipment. Safe to say I'll be visiting back again multiple times if my budget allows

Bruce Benik II

When I am in Seattle I go here at least twice a week and spend around 2 hours talking with the knowledgeable staff about every photography question that I can come up with. Their used selection equipment is good and reasonably priced. They pay well on trade-ins, but will not take damaged or outdated equipment.

Nancy Edelstein

Best camera store anywhere, in my humble opinion! For amateurs and professionals alike. Expert, knowledgeable help with an abundance of sales people at all times. I hear their online store is great too, but I'm lucky enough to live in Seattle and get to go to their beautiful new space for all my photographic needs.

Nathan

Glazer's has knowledgeable staff that meet the perfect balance of attentiveness without being overbearing. Their selection is fantastic and they have a very respectable warranty on used items. It's great to have such a fantastic brick and mortar store in the age of online shopping!

Margarita Wilde

I purchased a camera lens here recently. The entire experience was a breeze. They knew exactly what I was looking for and were able to find it immediately. The staff is overall very knowledgeable and kind. They offer lots of great educational events as well. Lovely locals business that I look forward to supporting.

David Wang

I had the pleasure to deal with Mike Este from the sales team and he went out of his way to resolve an issue with the order I placed. The customer service quality was exemplary. I will keep shopping at Glazer’s for my future needs.

Vinnie Curlee

So I've been into this store at least 10 times in the past year. If you find yourself longing for anything photo or video related...glazers is your answer. Ken is always there when I come in and ROCKS!! Have never left glazer's unsatisfied. They have the most beautiful assortment of Leica cameras & were able to put a RED komodo in my hands as well. I love this store! The whole staff is awesome really & so many accessories. The REI of photo/video. Not to mention their film/lighting assortment upstairs. They also do repairs & sensor cleanings.

Jonathan Hyde

Man this place was such a great experience! Dion practically gave us a little class on our camera functions and even took some photos. As novices, it was the perfect store to stop at to get our next upgraded lense and some tips to get my fiance excited! Thanks Dion!!!!!!!

J Snider

Awesome camera store. The people working there were really nice and no pressure. They have a huge selection of everything you could need, at least for us amateurs. Tons of professional looking gear but I don't know much about that world so consider my review in that light.

Christine A Eagleson

Okay, staff here is amazing. Incredibly knowledgable and educative of their products. I spent a lot of time talking with multiple people, ultimately helping me determine the right equipment for my needs, from which there is endless product to choose from. Selection here is unmatched. Highly recommend every aspect of Glazer's. Needless to say, I purchased a really nice camera.

Blaubak Pusheject

They haven't always been fair in used pricing or accurate in their estimates, forgetting that we will see how much they end up selling our used merch for - but they have made sure to have things in stock for all our shoots. I'll be honest though, they have misplaced store credits on a few occasions as well as a store trade-in. That was a while ago however and we understand how difficult it is to manage a circus - it's great that they are doing well against online competition. In the end though, it's important to have a sticker supplier of quality gear so if our losses have contributed to the success then so be it.

Frank Toast

I drove up from Portland to get the Sigma 35 1.2 for my S1, because they were the only place to have it! That’s not why I give them 5 stars though, that comes from the outstanding friendly and helpful staff! Even over the phone I could tell these people were great, only to be further impressed when I actually got to their store! 10000% recommend this place. I just wish I lived closer!!

Sereirith Saman

I’ve visited a few times and have found the staff there very knowledgeable and friendly. I’m new to photography and wanted to up my game but didn’t know where to begin. They helped me pick out accessories and gave me great info about their products and classes. The stock they had was huge. Highly recommend to anyone in the area

Simon Antonelli

Fantastic camera shop if you are visiting Seattle! The staff were really knowable and friendly. I had a few tripod and monopod screws that had gone missing over the years. I've never come into replacement parts them. They had everything on hand to sort me out!

Elizabeth Jean Poore

Dion was very helpful and answered all my questions without pushing anything. The selection was mind boggling, although they were out of one thing I had come for. They had another option and the salesman checked it would work with my camera.

Casey “Caseyface” Branson

The staff at Glazer's Camera is amazing. They are INCREDIBLY knowledgeable and friendly, come and bring all of your questions. They'll make sure you have the right product for your needs. Even if that means an hour, two hours, testing products and accessories, whatever. They won't push anything on you, but rather will work within your budget. Don't need to actually purchase anything? Check out their rental department!! 10/10 would recommend.

Andrew Petersen

Great selection of photography gear. A fairly good selection of used items including the occasional film cameras. Also a great place to go to drool over Leica cameras and wish you could afford them. The staff is really friendly and knowledgeable.

Aly Falshaw

Literally the best camera place in town! Saved my life by having a part for my GoPro I couldn’t find anywhere else! Really cool shop and the employees went above and beyond to help me out. Will be back for all my camera needs! Thanks again!

Carson Keller

I called looking for a tokina lens and all they had were the newest versions. I found the particular one I was looking for at another store. I called these guys back and ask if the new version is better then the the older one I was looking for. I was giving an honest answer and recommended to go with the older version I appreciate the honesty even though they may have voided a sale. Friendly service an honest opinion I would recommend this place.

Sam Alexander

I told the salesperson I was looking for a camera with very specific features. Fits in pocket, full features, all features accessible with one hand, viewfinder, adjustable aperture and shutter speed, rugged and dependable. With my description he brought me 2 models to demonstrate. Very straightforward, no pressure and right on target. I bought a Canon G15 and it has exceeded my expectations in every way! This is Glazer's reputation in the community and they deserve it.

Mike Trach

I came in today for the first time. Salesman who was helping me was very helpful and nice. The store is clean and plentiful. Prices were lower than I expected for a camera shop! I paid for street parking but as I approached the store, there was a sign for store parking, so it looks like you probably don't have to pay for parking.

BJ Levitt

This is a dangerous store, hard to go and not spend too much because you found the perfect thing you didn't know you needed. Seriously, a great camera store with an incredibly knowledgeable and friendly staff. I've purchased most of my gear from Glazers since moving to Seattle, this store has few rivals.

Hannah Yang

I brought in a lens with a cracked filter stuck on it thinking I'd be footing a sizable repair bill. The man helping me took off the broken filter for free! I bought a couple more uv filters since obviously I need them to step in when I (too frequently) drop my camera. Love this store for the great service I got today!

Uncle Skunk

I purchased an eos r6 online, but wanted to make sure they had what I needed in stock. The service I received was stellar and I will definitely be using Glazer's more in the future. Shipping to the east coast took 8 days, but that's not their fault. EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SUPPORT!!!

Tim Murray

Hunter was friendly, informative, and most appreciated, he was candid. We left with a camera and some accessories completely satisfied. Huge selection, great atmosphere, easy location to get to, free parking, I can't think of a thing that would make it a better retail experience.

Lance Rasmussen

A Seattle staple for photo and video camera needs as well as lighting and studio needs. Staff is knowledgeable and a nice inventory. Store underwent a nice rebuild and nice modern feel. Prices are fair. These days, the independent camera store has been disappearing more and more, yet Glazer's remains.

Stephen c

Very knowledgeable sales staff. Spent over an hour with me to get me the right fit. Recommended I not by anything but the base level of Sony A6000 camera until I got used to it and decided what I wanted to do next. Pointed me to a class they were having the following week as well that they thought I would find useful for my trip. Going back again!

One of the few real camera stores left. All the staff I have encountered are friendly and willing to help. There used gear is top notch and priced very fair. Also one of the few places you can still pick up film and darkroom supplies. Not a lot of low end middle of the road equipment though everything in lighting is prosumer or higher so expect to pay that level for any new gear purchased. They just moved into a new building with multiple floors the store looks great although parking got a little more dicey with the underground parking. I miss the big lot they used to have. The new building is right across the street from where they where before.

Gavin Contreras

Great service and extremely knowledgeable staff. Only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is because I was given the wrong colorway for my camera. However this was most likely they were about to close so the sales rep was a little rushed (I obviously also should’ve double checked). With their great service I’m sure they’ll switch the wrong colorway with the correct one with no issue. Highly recommended

Amy Gulick

I've always had terrific service here, but recently I had over the top EXCEPTIONAL service here. I had a specific lighting challenge for a technical shoot. Not only did they spend the time to help me troubleshoot different lighting/equipment setups, but then they allowed me to set up the equipment/lights in their store to see if I felt confident the solution would work. And then they saved me a ton of dough by having most everything I needed available as a rental that day. Can't do THAT through the internet. Thanks Glazer's!

stephen rocha

Great service here! Called in to see if they had the canon 17-40 L lens in stock, they ended up having it used and saved me quite a bit of money, The lens was in just about perfect condition, came with a hood and a cap, they made it very easy to put on hold and were very helpful when looking for a filter when I went in too pick it up. I would recomend this store to anyone in the seattle area. Excellent service

Abhishek Malyala

I've been at Glazers many times, for their workshops and photo walks. The staff is incredible. I went in browsing for used gear. Dion was very helpful, spoke to me about available lenses without any pressure to make a sale. He let me try out stuff patiently. I tried a fuji lens, then came home, after some more research ordered it online so I can pick it up tomorrow.

noah madigan

I had never been here, but found that they have a lot of items in-stock. Staff was great and helped me find a replacement shutter release for my camera. And answered all my questions about other options. I also asked about rentals and will probably be renting a lens with a friend very soon.

Couch Crusader (CouchCrusader)

The moment Canon announced the EOS RP, I knew it had to be mine! I walked into Glazer's and it was a comfortable and respectful chat that led me to pre-order the right kit for me (the body with a 24-70mm f2.8 lens) and my budget. Sure, their prices might not always beat B&H but I think it's worth spending the difference to keep a local, family-owned and well-regarded Seattle institution open. Shouts out to Hunter and Kamali, they knew their stuff, were friendly as anything, and never made me feel like I was getting sold something I didn't need.

Kevin Cameron

Huge selection, helpful and informative staff.

Lita Xú Líng Kelley

Staff are always pleasant, knowledgeable & very helpful. I'm happy to be a regular, repeat customer, and they have the best prices . Never had a problem in the past few years I've been buying there

Bolton Peck

Great selection, they let you try things out too. Knowledgeable staff, enthusiasm for the art and craft of photography. Also a big selection of film and used/vintage gear. In addition to all the latest from just about any brand you can name. Don't forget all the extras.. lights, tripods, batteries, cables, adapters, flashes.. plan on spending some enjoyable time here.

R. Jay F

One of the last great brick and mortar camera stores. It's not perfect but it's amazing that they are still around. Prices are internet competitive. Their repair service has been sub-par for me, but I'm not going to ding them for that, as they send out all their repairs to other facilities I think. The staff actually know what they are talking about.

D B

I had driven a long distance to Seattle last Saturday evening so that my daughter could take pictures for a school project. It was essential that she complete the photos Saturday evening. She had just taken a few pictures when she realized that her battery had died. It was almost 6pm and I knew that it would be a miracle if we could find a camera store and buy a battery charger. I immediately looked on my phone for the nearest camera store and realized that Glazer's was fairly close to us. We drove there and arrived just after they had closed; the employees were exiting the store. In desperation, I asked if there was any chance that someone could sell me a charger. Long story short, several of the employees stayed behind to support us in our quest to resolve our dilemma, and in the end I was able to get a charger, and my daughter was able to complete her project. I really appreciated the concern and support that the employees showed for us. It is so nice when people go out of their way to help a stranger. Thank you, Glazer’s employees!

Jack von Eberstein

If you're a pro photographer or simply an enthusiast, Glazer's in Seattle is THE STORE. Great selection of the best gear for all your photographic needs. Friendly, well informed staff. Highly recommended!

Gordon Fox

I’d like to give a shout out to to Glazers, in particularly a few of their staff...Daniel continues to update me on my Sony gear offering me new tips and tricks to try out as well as new gear out there. As of recently the company I work for Fathom Seafood and I are working to educate people about the live seafood industry through videos. Jordan, Chrispy, and Hunter continue to field the numerous questions I have as I move into the videography world. They provide me with knowledge from their years of being in the industry, resources to checkout, as well as educating me on different types of gear and why they vary in cost which help me make the best choice with the budget I have. Thank you glazers for having such an outstanding crew.

Nick Shelestak

Everything I’ve needed, they had me covered. Helpful through and through.

Jim Upton

Great camera store. They have everything associated with cameras and their gear. They will buy used camera equipment too. It's hard not to spend money in here if you're a camera geek. Parking can be tough depending on when you go. It's all street parking that you will have to pay for.

Allie Welsh

Shop local. My boyfriend wanted a camera. I heard Glazier's holiday shopping event ad on the radio and I knew we had to go. They had reps from a ton of camera companies and a ton of employees around to help. My BF got one on one service and looked at maybe six models. The guy was extremely knowledgeable and helpful and nice. Not pushy. They offer free classes to teach you how to use your camera. This place is super cool.

Tim Seaman

Customer service isn't great unless you're spending big bucks on a new camera. They've got a good selection of film & photo paper, and are pretty much the only ones who sell it in Seattle. I went in for a cable shutter release last week to replace a great programable one I got for $20 last year on Amazon. They only had a nearly pointless shutter release for $30, and a $100 intervalometer. Ten bucks more for a tenth of the features is ridiculous. This store is not for amateurs.

Spencer Lindemuth

Glazer's manages to find only the nicest, most knowledgeable people to work behind their counters. Whether you have never even seen a camera before, or you lost a lens cap at your last GQ shoot, they will treat you exactly the same, and find a way to go above and beyond helping you. They never make you feel like you should know something you don't, or let you know if you're making a mistake in a purchase or getting a bad deal. They don't care about the sale, they care about you coming back time and time again. Which I always will!

Fei Yuan

Excellent store! I recently bought a Sony RX100 V from them. The experience was superb during the purchase with very knowledgable and helpful staff. After the purchase, I found that the camera had a defect, took it back to the store hoping them would help me to send back for warranty. To my pleasant surprise, they replaced it with a new unit on the spot for me. I can't think of a better store than that, even BH in NYC could not match them.

Beverly Davis

Great place. We were on vacation in Seattle and needed some accessories for our camera. Checked Glazer's Camera out on the Internet, and used the directions to walk there from the Pike's Market area. They had everything imaginable, and the sales clerk was able to find what we were looking for quickly, and have us on our way.

Cynthia McNabb

I had left my cf memory card at home and was so happy they carries this type. Thank you! The sales person was helpful and quick. I'll be back when I have time to explore the store.

Telideo Productions, Inc.

I own a video production company in Seattle that specializes in producing live action business videos and I have to say that I'm very lucky to have a place like Glazer's Camera that sells and rents high-quality video production equipment in my backyard. Their prices are usually very comparable to the big online equipment stores if not the exact same, and the fact that I can actually go into Glazer's, play with the items and get my questions answered is exactly why they're always my first, and usually last, stop for sourcing equipment. In fact, the only reason I wouldn't buy something I needed from them would be because it was an item or product line that they simply don't sell.

Victoria Uhl

I've been shopping at Glazer's since moving to Seattle (and starting my pro-hobbyist photography career) about eight years ago now. From my first visit -- to buy my first-ever prime lens -- to last week's D750 purchase, I can honestly say I've always been treated with care and respect, always greeted, and never made to feel silly for not knowing some basic mechanic of shooting (hey, it happens when you're self-taught). In fact, one of the ways I've grown my skills the most as a photographer has been through conversations with thier staff, especially Laura, Cody, and Kamali -- which is something you won't get through any online retail purchase that might save you a modest amount on the purchase price. Don't go anywhere else!

Melissa Bolinger

Sometimes, I drop in just to ask for help figuring something out and other times I call to get advice. Because of how well I have been treated, I have spent thousands of dollars here. I have never felt pressured to buy. I buy because the staff is so great at showing me new things that will improve my photography. I have also rented equipment several times. I've never had a bad experience. I have always been given more than I asked for! I have only experienced Glazers to be integrous. I recommend Glazers to everyone who will listen!

Alan Tower

Glazer's has been great for professional support. I've gotten backpacks, hard to find Lee filters, studio lighting...all the tools for a great shot on the road or in studio. My latest purchase, an Elinchrom light kit, happened to have a bulb that was defective in the package. They sent me 2 bulbs immediately (arrived next day in Spokane) without charge. The lights are perfect for my needs, and they helped me select the softboxes I got (and their umbrellas) from the many models available. The prices are not that different from on line pricing, and it is worth it for the lessons, advice and direction from a professional. Their stores are well organized and well stocked. Such a difference from what we have in our town.

John Kercheval

If Glazer's does not have it, it is likely you don't need it. Best photo rental place in Seattle, hands down. The retail store was recently rebuilt and now has much more space. The folks here are helpful and knowledgeable.

Josh Madakor

Dan helped me. I left the store feeling like I had stolen something because of all the free education he gave me. Can't recommend this place enough 😭👌 …

dinwa

I purchased a 35mm prime lens for my Nikon camera. Using F1.8 at about four feet, the focus was 4 - 5 inches behind the spot focus point. Mike, the store manager, helped me try three different lenses and eventually determined my camera body was the problem. I am new to this and appreciated him taking the time and being very thorough.

Dean Byrd

I have been a Glazer’s customer for the last eight years. I have purchased two DSLRs, lenses and various other equipment. I have always Been treated well and the staff knowledge is outstanding. Glazers is my go to location for all of my photo needs . 5 stars.

Amy K

What a beautiful shop! Staff was nice, the layout is roomy and there is so much to see. Plenty for beginners and veterans.

Allen Woods

This truly is a camera lover's paradise with everything you could ever want in terms of gear for photography or videography. However, as nice as their gear is - they carry Epic RED - they do not and have never offered financing plans. Save those pennies or you will only be "just looking".

Roger Knopf

A true professional's camera store, extremely well stocked and knowledgeable helpful staff. By far the best inventory of lighting and other studio gear in the Seattle area. Want Profoto? Check. Want a rolling light stand? Check. Want Apple boxes? Check. Want seamless? Check. I could go on but you get the idea.

Molly Blair

A huge shout out to everyone there! Over the past few months I have gone in and needed anything from gaffers tape to a new lighting kit. Whether it was just rushing in for the emergency role of tape or needing an in depth review of monopods for video I have gotten great service. Also recently went to a workshop, wow I have been missing out!

Brian Won

Great local camera shop, well curated collection of equipment. However they're not enormous like some shops, so keep that in mind!

Mitchell Clark

It's like B&H, for the West coast. They've got a great selection of basically anything you're looking for, and very helpful staff. Everyone seemed really eager to help me out, and answer any questions I had. And when it came to answering questions, everyone seemed knowledgeable about the areas that they were in. I'll definitely be coming back here whenever I need something for film shooting, or pro video, or pro photography, or okay you get the idea.

Juliet Lemon

A super store packed to the rafters with great camera gear. The staff were super friendly and helpful. The had the Canon camera batteries I needed in stock.

Cheryl Brooks

Excellent service, knowledgeable staff, & amazing selection. I had tons of questions about a lens i was interested in and Dion Baker could not have been more patient & helpful. Highly recommend!

Roddy Chung

The Glazer's Camera main store has excellent service. But the lighting and supplies store has the worst of all. I walked in a lot of times and they NEVER greeted me. They have 2-3 employees standing around the cashier but never come to you and ask if you need any help. And even if I came up to any of them. Their response were minimal and just acted like they did not care at all. And they closed earlier than the displayed store hours which is ridiculous.

Nicole Hagins

Awesome service the people here are knowledgeable about the products they sell.

Stefano Francesco Altamura

I FREAKIN' LOVE GLAZERS CAMERA! From day one when I was such a wide-eyed boy in a candy store, eveyone in there has always treated me with such respect and honesty. The thing I love most about this store aside from all the employees always being informative, passionate and just their willingness to help you is outstanding but they all have such a unbias opinion on camera brands. I think I went in wanting to buy a Nikon or Canon coming from the XT1, needed something a more in the semi-pro realm. They really listened to what I was needing in my camera and they even brought out all the cameras that I was looking and we did some field testing. Devin has shown me nothing but outstanding customer service as well as everyone else that has helped me through the years. I feel so grateful to have such a rad camera store in Seattle.

Ryan Chiang

Have had many conversations with everyone at this amazing store. They are all knowledgeable about their product and have good data and understanding about all that is related to photography. Highly recommend.

Joseph

Hands down the best camera store in Seattle. When you need expert help, when you're shopping for prosumer or better equipment, when you want to actually touch and compare products instead of starting at a web page, and/or when you want to rent something you really need briefly but can't justify buying, this is the place to go.

Jody Lewis

We've been long time customers of Glazers nkwfor 15 years. Haven't been there since the remodel and my wife and I were in the need of an upgrade to our equipment. We were immediately great by an overwhelming feeling of welcomeness and an offer to help. We worked with Stuart and Rebecca who did a great job at taking care of us. We ended up with new gear and a fantastic experience. Thank you Glazers, still a customer for life.

Nimbic One

Large selection of gear including on camera and off camera flashes, softboxes, backdrops, tripods, and bags. They also have classes available as well. The staff are very knowledgeable and eager to help whether you are a newbie or professional. And if you need rental gear that is available right down the road as well! They have a small parking garage with free parking which is convenient but they only havr a few small stalls under the building structure. Big vehicles may have a difficult time fitting!

Jose Perez

Great attentive and knowledgable service! Be sure to check online the lens you are buying to verify price. I was looking at a Rekonin and they were selling it for 1k but bought directly from Rekonin is 700, they price matched. This location has amazing selection of cameras, lenses, and all types of gear.

Steven FielerJr

Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. Excellent social distancing practices without compromising service. Good prices and they aren't ripping you off. Great experience 10/10 would recommend.

ashleigh

I have had two shopping experiences at Glazers and they were both great. The sales people were very friendly and quick to let me try things out. They even let me take a couple cameras outside to see how they performed in natural light. The only somewhat negative vibe I got from the place was an unusual old man who was making jokes about the camera I bought being one of the ones that 'fell off the truck.' It was in very poor taste, but obviously not true, the sales girl gave him kind of an indulgent 'you're such a jerk' head shake and smiled at me. My recommendation is to go here and talk to the women, they have been wonderful!

Frederick Wenkonski

Pat's terrific! There was a glitch on the website which caused a problem with my order. Communications were difficult, given a three-hour time difference between New York and Seattle and all the disruptions to business and daily life these few weeks, but Pat kept following up until he mades sure everything was right. Thanks! I look forward to doing business with you again in the future.

Adam Jordan

I dropped by to grab a monopod that I'd already researched on their website. I was immediately helped by a staff member that knew exactly what I was talking about and which models were in stock. They have implemented some top notch COVID19 protocols, so I wouldn't hesitate to return.

Earthbuds Van

Thank you to the two film camera experts me and my boyfriend talked to. We were fulfilling our bucket list item of filling a roll of film road tripping along the Pacific Coast Highways and needed our film camera fixed. They were able to help us choose the right type of film and fix the camera using an old secret technique. they taught us what to do if the shutter gets stuck again. If you hit the camera on the bottom of your shoe as hard as you can, it unsticks the shutter lol. sounds crazy, but it works every time!

Matt Skerritt

These guys have helped me a LOT over the past couple of years. I'm a 'professional' video person with an ever-evolving kit of mid-level video and DSLR/Mirrorless gear, as well as lighting and grip stuff. They've got a little bit of everything and their people are fantastic. If I have a criticism is it that they don't have more Grip gear. More selection of gadgets and tools for professional grip and video lighting stuff would be good. I know they probably don't have the room for it, they're practically busting out of their new, huge space, but still.... I always have to buy something from BH or Filmtools or someplace because they don't quite have that special thing we need for the kit. STILL, for camera gear, these guys are GREAT. Customer service and management is Fabulous!

SamPNW

Absolutely fantastic customer service and subject matter expertise in cameras, camera gear, and accessories. The staff is respectful and professional.

David Estroff

Knowledgeable and helpful staff. Great selection of all things photographic available. Good prices.

Jason Weaver

Very knowledgeable staff, very helpful for helping me pick out my first good camera! Answered all my questions and obviously know a lot in their field. Worth the trip just for the staff expertise.

Laurie Lyon

I love Glazer's Camera. I have purchased lots of video, sound, and lighting equipment from them, and they have the best customer service ever! Special Kudos to Cody Hurd - who has guided me in the selection, purchase, and working knowledge of much video gear, and I so appreciate it! - Laurie Lyon Videographer, Multimedia Specialist

Kevin Tran

All the camera gear! Friendly staff and there's a lot of options that can work with your budget, albeit with lenses, camera bodies, lights, and other stuff to enhance your art and performance. Staff are very informative and can help explain in details should you ask for it.

Shawn Lutz

They are the best camera shop in the city hands down probably one of the best in the country. From knowledgeable passionate sales associates, great service, awesome rentals department and some really interesting looking educational programs!

David Erickson

Nice, open, clean place. Helpful staff. Lots of stock in many brands. Prices as good as any I've seen. Just didn't have what I was looking for this time. When back in town will likely visit again.

Oliver Puczyk

Always have stuff in stock so you can try before you buy unlike buying online. The used gear guy was also super helpful and easy to trade in for stuff I actually want

Public Service Company

Always had great service. Ordered equipment online even and received it next day. It's my go to for last minute or high quality selections.

Ying Wu

I walked to Glazer on a vacation when my lens suddenly stopped working. The online reviews weren't very good but that's the only one close to downtown Seattle. So, I went in, somebody helped me find a used lens, and that was it. They have a 60 days warrantee for used lens. To be specific, it was a Canon 18-135mm IS for $159. I later checked the prices for used online. It beat ebay, craigslist, and Amazon.

Sumit Chopra

The staff is really friendly and knowledgeable about anything related to photography and videography. They are really helpful to provide you enough details so that you can evaluate different options and buy the right thing.

Ritu K. Coleman

Very friendly and knowlegable group of people. I went in asking for suggestions on a good camera for beginners and received a ton of input. They also provide photography classes for reasonable prices.

Craig D.

Very cool store. If you are looking for anything related to video or stills this is the place to go. Prices can be really good if you watch for sales. Expert advice. They also offer classes.

robpleasphoto

My go to store for camera equipment. Extremely knowledgeable staff, very friendly, interested in helping me make the correct decisions for my business.

grand whizbang

Nice and clean and easy layout bit geared more for pro's more than anyone intermediate or beginner. Also their polaroid selection is literally just film. Which is okay, but could be improved

Bakugo Hero

Expensive.. like really expensive on some items, but that is how the market goes. The staff I found to need to be addressed to get assistance, I walked around for 20 minutes trying to find the right cable. Once I did get someone to help me though they were knowledgeable and got me to the right place.

R. Ryan Sadeghian

It's great to have a physical store in Seattle to be able to go in person and see/test the product prior to purchase. I have visited the store many times for different needs and was never disappointed. This is the BH of PNW.

Deanna Seaman

I really a0preciate the technical knowledge of the team. They have a good selection of pro cameras. The store is clean so the focus is on the gear, cleean lines, no clutter.

Mason White

Strong selection of new cameras and accessories. Helpful staff. Used equipment selection varies. The move to the new building has eased the crowded feeling. Be sure to check out their classes.

Derick W.

Really great selection of products and helpful staff.

Hunter Hespen

Great selection of gear here. They just moved into their new store across the street and it is incredible. It now has a more professional and business like feel to it.

Tiya Archibald

Great service!! Staff are friendly and kind!! 👏👏👏 …

Alisa Duckworth

Employees are helpful! I came in with questions and Mr. Baker explained things in a way I could understand. I know understand my lens much better. Thank you!

J L

They run out of a few things after a big sale, but anyone new to photography should start here. Anyone not new to photography already shops here. Very patient and informative staff.

Brian Liesse

Really the only place to get photographic equipment in the area anymore. It has everything from basic starting equipment for learners, to equipment for advanced users. The new layout of the store is nice.

Rigoberto Ibarra

New to the photography world talked to one of there staff in the phone and was really helpful and took the time to lessen and when i made it to the store it got better they are grate and will explain everything and assist you berry well

Mike Hall

Went in to print e check as a first step and I found a used camera that was exactly what I was looking for, at a very reasonable price. The salesperson was knowledgeable and very helpful.

Sean Watson

Glazers has excellent customer service and a knowledgeable staff. It's great to get a feel for how equipment actually handles before you buy it.

Douglas King

Top notch camera store. Well stocked.. Knowledgeable staff. Excellent service. Great rental service.

Michael Senkow

Best camera store in Seattle

Nick Morrelli

Great service! Dion was very knowledgeable and didn't try to oversell anything. My wife will likely be taking some classes here.

Michael Holden

Every major city in the US has what I call "The Camera Store", which is to say, the top pro pro shop in the area. In Seattle, this is Glazers. There really isn't any other place you can go and expect to find the full range of every pro system in stock and lots of other goodies to boot. Non-pro shoppers, note that the sales staff know what they are talking about (even if it isn't what you want to hear), they all shoot better than you (and me!) so listen to their advice, don't treat them like mall staff.

Badr Abdullah

Best place to buy camera professional staff they help you to find what you need

Sujeeth Jinesh

Nice and professional shop with all my camera needs. Made looking for a diff super easy

Viet Nguyen

Huge location and friendly staff. They sell professional grade equipment at a fair price which is quite pricey for the average Joe but if you know what you're looking for, this is the place to be.

Brendan Morrison

Always stop by here to stock up on film when I'm in town. Great prices. Great service. Also a solid selection of used gear.

Doug Dobbins

The new store is much easier to move around and has a nice class room. The video area is main aimed at DSLR film makers.

Henry Wylie

Hunter at Glazers Camera was extraordinary knowledgeable and helpful when it came to the equipment, Awesome guy to talk to If you ever shop there

Hailey

Came in with a question about an old camera, left with knowledge and lots of decision making to consider! The man who helped my husband and I was so patient, helpful and informative!

Sue HENG

They are helpful with out being pushy. The staff is well informed and patient with questions. A great place to buy photo equipment.

Michael Juarez

Nicest and friendliest photography store I’ve been to. Super helpful folks with good advice. Check it out !

Myesha Andrews

Hunter was so helpful. Instead of him trying to up sale me on something I did really want and could not really afford... He gave me options to make sure things are really what I want and need

Jordan Finfrock

Expensive. Especially after Sales Tax. Bought my Tamron 28-75 FE there. Super friendly staff, good service!

Todd Schlemmer

If you're a photography, IF YOU'RE A FILM PHOTOGRAPHER - you need to make a pilgrimage to Glazer's Camera. Knowledgeable and helpful staff, great selection, and a well-stocked film fridge!!

Tallon Cote

They are great. Sometimes it is hard to find some help. They need to ask around and at least let you know they are there to help and answer any questions you have. I don't want to be pestered, but I also don't want to be unnoticed and have them pretend I don't exist.

Emily Butterfield

Very helpful staff and a well stocked store! My new favorite shop for picking up 35mm film.

Dan Kelleher

An awesome, local, camera store. The staff is knowledgeable, and always available to help you spend your money with great advice.

Hallie Kathryn

Always incredibly helpful staff

Bob Jimerson

Helpful. My first visit to rent a specialty lens. Friendly fast service. Everything was ready to go when I walked in.

Coco

This is not a chain store. It seems like a camera store you might visit in the late 1970s with lots of odds and ends piled on top of one another. I like that it does not feel pretentious.

Angie Douglas

A great camera store for both new and used equipment. Very knowledgeable staff. My go to camera store.

Chalee Johnson

They were incredibly patient with my 13 year old son who had a million questions and no intention of buying anything. Knowledgeable, patient and kind

Barry Luke

If you have not been to the new store you must stop by. It's an amazing experience and the staff are all extremely knowledgeable.

Winthrop B (Win)

Best camera and gear shop in Seattle by leaps and bounds. They are buy used gear and dispense really good camera and video advice.

Mike Sands

Love these guys.... even the blond lady at the front register is always so sweet. Thank you for making it so great. Everyone has a lot of knowledge and no question is too dumb for them to answer. Thanks everyone .. keep up the good work.

Charlie Liu

Super helpful employees who are very willing to answer questions about photography. They also rent gear at their second location.

Matthew D'Avella

Go. Spend the day. Try not to spend your entire bank account, I dare you. Prices are on par with Amazon except you get professional assistance. Loved this place.

Joe Samorodin

In a time when its impossible to find a wide variety of camera equipment in an actual brick and mortar store there is Glazers. Now if I only had deeper pockets.

Andrew O'Neill

Shopping in person at Glazer's makes me remember why I love this store. Super friendly staff.

Amanda Will

Called in to make sure they buy used cameras and when they said yes I came all the way down there.. Just to find out that what they didn't tell me was you have to be 21+ to sell your camera. What a bunch of BS.

Trey Bailey

Everything camera, everything msrp $$$$$. Great staff, a little stand off if you don't look like you have money, but no reason to blame 'em for stereotyping with the service and knowledge they are able to provide.

Sarah Scott

Best camera store on the Pacific Northwest offering great customer service and fun interesting classes and seminars.

Tyler Atwood

The B&H of Seattle. Very nice store with parking. Only complaint was the lack of used film camera selection.

Rolland Lawrenz

Last 4 times I have been there they either don't have it in stock, or they don't seem to have knowledge of the item. To the point I purchased the item before and now they say they "never sold" the item in the past.
