Welcome back to our Question of the Week series, where we invite you – our passionate community – to share your thoughts on a photography-related topic in the forum!
So far, we’ve heard your insights on camera and lens buying advice, your takes on smartphone cameras, and even debated controversial gear choices. This week, we’re shifting the focus from gear to the people and places that fuel our photography: local camera and digital photography stores.
What is your favorite local camera or digital photography store?

Whether it’s a shop packed with vintage gems (share your finds!), a place with knowledgeable staff who steer you right or simply a like-minded hangout spot, tell us about the local camera store that holds a special place in your heart. Maybe you found your dream camera there, built your lens collection or just love the chance to hang out with fellow photographers and tech geeks.
We want to know:
- What makes your favorite store stand out?
- Any memorable experiences? Surprising finds? Unique services?
- Where is it located?
- Overall, what keeps you wanting to go back?
Share your story with the community. Head over to the post in the Open Talk forum to join the conversation. You can also share your experiences on social media using the hashtags #DPReview and #DigitalPhotography. From the forums to social media, we’ll select at least five responses by next Monday and share them in an article update.
Let’s celebrate and support the local shops that are at the heart of our digital photography journeys!
