Lovely little shop. Lots of solid equipment. Had great service from a Rachel and honestly may come back soon to stock some equipment for myself.

I have never dealt with this shop, but I found a Pentax ME super in perfect condition at a flea market in the middle-east for 10$ that had a service sticker with this shop's name and address. so... 5 stars for that.

Y. M. G.

great service, the seller is very friendly, kind and helpful, plus i love the camera i purchased, it's the best film one i've had so far

P. R.

Camera buffs come and spend your hard earned cash. Huge range to choose from. Excellent knowledgeable staff willing to discuss and help with all aspects of photography. You won't be disappointed. If you're lucky you can often park right outside or car park in road opposite.

I highly recommend this store. Genuinely friendly staff who have an abundance of knowledge. I'd also much rather spend my money supporting a local business than sending my negatives of to an autonomous, online lab.

I popped into Parker's Photographic after I made the decision to take up film photography. I walked in a complete novice but Oli explained so much about film cameras with patience and genuine enthusiasm. His ability to translate somewhat difficult concepts in such a clear and concise manner is quite astonishing. I was blown away by the service and range of cameras on offer. I left with a smile on my face - clutching my Praktika MTL 50. I can't wait to go back and get my photos developed. Thank you Parkers for such fantastic service - I can't recommend this place enough.

Great family run shop found at the bottom of Portsmouth Rd in Woolston. Good friendly advice. Plenty of second hand equipment for sale, I bought a camera bag, a tripod and a lense shade all for a great price. I recommend to try here first before you go anywhere else.

Professional quality printing service with friendly and helpful staff. For you retro shooters out there, they are one of the few places that still develop 35mm film. The camera store is well stocked with new and used equipment at good prices. I'm a pro photographer and would highly recommend them.

Took my mum's old Minolta film camera in here today, after two other shops (including London Camera Exchange) hadn't been able to figure out how to get it working. The man managed to fix it in two minutes. He also very kindly helped show me how to load film etc. Very helpful and friendly

I have used Parkers printing service for years, I also rent their studio space too! Amazing high end equipment! they have 3 studio spaces available , the only down side is there isn't a lift and very narrow stairs to go up to the studio so not ideal for disabled customers. the shop however is on the ground floor where they sell fames and photo albums, cameras and photography equipment ranging from darkroom & film photography to digital , they even have studio lighting on sell as well as modelling bulbs and flash replacements, even sensor cleaning! it Really is a very specialist photographic shop and to top it off Lovely friendly staff (which is rare these days) Steve the owners son (its a family owned business) is very professional , knowledgeable and very patient and goes above and beyond to make sure the highest customer service is served. highly recommend!

I had my passport photo taken here today. The photographer was easygoing and professional. It is quite expensive at £8 for 6 photos, but they do guarantee the photos will be accepted by the passport office. They do this by running the digital image through a computer program which checks the photo against the official standards. The photographer let me view the photos before printing them. I do look ugly in the photos but that's the fault of my parents not the photographer 😂

I. S.

Couldn't recommend more - Developed some photos and they came out pretty nice! Friendly and welcoming staff.
