Henry’s Photography (Ontario)

Sales can be good.  Not always the best regular prices.

I have been in the Toronto store twenty-five+ years ago and the Ottawa location on occasion.  I have used the Barrie and Vaughn (now closed) stores many times.  I also shop via the Internet.  Shipping times not very good (I have to call and remind them).  Its the closest to where I live; friendly staff.


Vistek (Ontario)

Fast service, and sales can be good.  Not always the best regular prices.

I have been in the Toronto store twenty-five+ years ago and the Ottawa location on occasion.  Now I shop via the Internet.

*shipping costs plus exchange now make it too expensive for me


Lozeau (Quebec) closed

Operated since 1927, due to the pandemic, city road work that never ended, supply problems, lockdowns, Lozeau closed its doors July, 2022.


Simon’s Camera (Quebec) closed

After 87 years; the owners retired and decided to shut down operations as of 28 July 2017.  Considering the always poor attitude of the staff, I was not disappointed.
