A single image printed on paper can evoke forgotten memories or strong emotions. In advertising, it has been proven that carefully chosen images are far more compelling than words. In much the same way, fleeting moments of our own lives become priceless when captured as photographs.
Review & Rating
Overall, I had a better than average experience at Mike's Camera in Boulder. The store had friendly representives who were helpful and it was quick and painless to retrieve my lens rental for my Sony A6300. I absolutely loved the Zeiss 55mm f1.8 lens. My only deduction is due to the fact that I called in on Friday morning to reserve the lens for Sunday and did not receive a call back until Sunday morning (right after they opened). At this point, I was already driving to Boulder to hopefully retrieve the lens. I'd probably called 4-5 times to the lens rental department Friday night and Saturday and went to voicemail each time. I just wish communication could have been better, especially so I can verify if I can or can not get the lens I need for my shoots.
Really great service from John Wendel at Mike's Camera in Boulder. He was patient and thorough in showing all camera possibilities. After several visits and trying everything on for size, the Canon M50 did the trick. When the M50 kit I wanted wasn't available, John worked with me to basically create the kit. I appreciate all the help and one on one time.
I actually came in with someone else who upgraded their camera gear, and I wound up upgrading as well. I have been a Canon shooter for many years, and weighed upgrading to the EOS R, but after listening to the different pros and cons, Bill had me convinced that upgrading to an A7 iii was the right choice. Since I still have a handful of Canon glass, he recommended the Sigma MC11 adapter which has worked flawlessly so far, and was a lot more affordable than the Metabones adapter that I was thinking of purchasing.
Having grown up in Boulder, I've used Mike's Camera on countless occasions throughout my life, but the last was a true testament to their reliability and dedication to excellent service. I now live in Italy, and was desperate to print photos of my wedding for family and friends back home before Christmas. The digital printing team was exceptionally helpful via email, going above and beyond to ensure that the result was exactly what I had in mind! Skype calls, real-time emails, and efficiency (thanks to the fabulous Leah!) laid all of my worries to rest. The end-result was perfect - beyond what I had imagined! Aside from being productive and proactive, you can rely on Mike's for having a sense of taste and style. A hats off to this Boulder institution for instilling this kind of over-the-top dedication in their employees, and - as a "local" living afar - I couldn't be more happy with their services! THANK YOU!
Awesome place for everyone from beginner to professional photographer. You can test equipment hands-on, rent lens s and other gear, and all of this at Internet competitive prices (at least when they have sales going on). They also have excellent customer service and present sales consulting.
Their picture printing software works well and is easy to use. I went to FedEx first, but after a frustrating hour horsing around with their barely functional systems I was so happy to head to Mike's. I won't waste my time with FedEx again.
I've been getting both black & white and colored film developed here for almost a year now and have been very happy with the service. I usually get them to upload my scans onto a USB, and there have been a couple of times where they forgot to import a roll. Although inconvenient, I was able to go back and get what was missing imported quickly and with no problem. They are a bit pricey as well, but I'm willing to pay it for GREAT customer service and quality photos. Additionally, Mac is the sweetest, and it's always a treat when he helps me out! I have never seen someone love their job so much, and I really appreciate his friendly face.
This place is great! Love working with Krystal Burres in Custom Imaging/Framing. Have been coming here for several years to get canvases stretched over bars, and she is great to work with every time! Highly recommend. Great staff, easy to work with and quick turnarounds!
Great to still have a store like this around. Huge selection of cameras and accessories. Many services offered including classes and printing. This store still sells and develops film and is able to push/pull and cross process all sizes
I have developed several black and white rolls at the Boulder location and each time there is dust and hairs on the scan. I get my color negatives done in Denver and the service there is impeccable. Perfect scans every time. No dust or hair. Super fast turn around.
