Cotswold Cameras Reviews: 20

This was my first order with Cotswoldcameras

This was my first order with Cotswoldcameras and I must say it went really well. The cost of the Canon RF 100-500mm f4.5-7.1L IS USM Lens was the best I could find and it got to me way faster than I thought it would…. In fact, I was out of town when the courier tryed to deliver it and I got a note about the missed drop-off. David from Cotswold cameras was kind and helped out by speaking with the courier and made sure it got taken to my neighbour, so I didn’t have to wait till I got back to open up my new lens. Great help all the way and I do suggest using Cotswold cameras. I plan to order from them again soon.

Usually offers great prices on camera stuff.

Usually offers great prices on camera stuff. I bought a Nikon Z8 and lens, both came carefully packed and on time. Their customer service is really good, they email you to confirm your delivery is fine once it’s arrived! I needed to push mine back a day because of work, and they messaged me right away when they noticed the change to double-check it was my request. Plus, you earn loyalty points which give a nice discount later on!

The team were really quick to answer all my questions

The team were really quick to answer all my questions and made sure every issue was fixed. The cost was great, though I didn’t know it came from China which slowed the delivery a bit. They gave fast advice on a faster shipping way and shared a link to follow. I got my camera in just a week. Amazing! Their quick replies kept me updated on my order all the time and it helped a lot. I would strongly recomend!

I bought a new lens and could follow it all the way until

I bought a new lens and could follow it all the way until it reached my home. It even came 2 days before the date they first gave me. I really suggest Cotswold Cameras because they offer easy service, good prices, and nice deals. I plan to keep buying from them since I also got a new camera there not long ago.

Recently got my second lens from Cotswold Cameras

Recently got my second lens from Cotswold Cameras after a good experience with my first order. This time was just as good. I picked up a Canon RF 70-200mm F4L IS USM lens at a really fair price. Shipping was faster than I thought and Dave kept me well informed the whole time.

This isn't my first time buying from Cotswold Cameras...

This isn't my first time buying from Cotswold Cameras... and it was the same as last time. I didn't get any updates for 8 days, so I reached out, got a response, and then 4 days later, my Canon RF 70-200mm F/4.0 IS arrived. Great prices and very good service A+++

Truly great service.

I’m a reliable reviewer and always share honest opinions. This is my second time buying from this company and they have never dissapointed me. Clear communication and wonderful products. I would surely suggest checking out this company for your shopping.

Used Cotswold Cameras for the first time in August 2025

Used Cotswold Cameras for the first time in August 2025 to buy an OM-1 mk2 camera & lens after seeing good reviews from other customers. The camera arrived from Hong Kong with DHL and I could track it all the way. Very good service and really fair price.

Pre-sale advice that helped

Emailed about autofocus performance on a wildlife body/lens combo. Got a measured, non-pushy reply with sample settings. Order shipped next day with solid packaging and tracking. Warranty details were easy to find.

Knowledgeable camera retailer

Product pages had the specs I needed, including AF points and codec info. Pre-sale email answered lens compatibility precisely. Shipping was fast, VAT invoice included, and packaging protected the gear well.

First rate service. Bought Nikon S Lens and 1.4 T/C

Got a Canon R6ii & 24-105 rf kit lens. Everything came just as shown. Really reliable company with great comunication and fast response.

Specs were spot on

Registered, filtered for a Sony FE lens, and the listing had the exact MTF and weight data. Checkout gave VAT invoice instantly. Smooth.

Quick shipping, no problems with customs at all.

Quick shipping, no problems with customs at all. Just got the new Nikon 24-70mm lens for an amazing prise and really happy with it.

A satisfying first click

Mounted the lens, half-pressed the shutter, and the AF locked instantly. That tiny confirmation beep put a grin on my face.

Fast, precise advice

Asked about IBIS vs lens OIS for travel video. Got a concise breakdown with recommendations. Friendly tone, very helpful.

Gear that inspires

I felt energized shooting that first clip. Their accurate specs and fast ship let me hit a deadline comfortably.

Lens compatibility cleared up

Asked about AF on an older body. Got a precise yes with caveats and a firmware note. Great service.

Really simple company to work with

Really simple company to work with, got a brand new product. The cost was quite fair compared to other places, but it took more time than I thought to get here.

Return handled gracefully

I misjudged focal length and initiated a return. Instructions were clear, turnaround was quick, and the refund posted without drama.
