I would like to give a shout out to JOSE for being the man. I came here to gift myself a brand new Sony FX3 for the holidays along with a monitor and extra batteries, and Jose made the experience all the more special and exciting with such a friendly warmth. I could instantly tell he got what I was going for and made sure I got the best camera kit possible. When I returned a couple of weeks later to exchange my blue battery in favor of a black one (I like my entire set up to be black), he remembered me and once again put me at ease. Thank you Jose, for being great and I hope this review gets to ya!

My place to go for both, video & film production and photography. Since my early days in OC when I was still running a studio in Orange, Samy's has supported me with cameras, lights, printers, rentals and more. Years later, still the same excellent service and best prices. Don't shop online. Shop with them. Barry, Sarah, Justin, thank you guys so much!

Exceptional knowledge and service. Frank A. is my go-to expert for anything related to photography. I recently struggled with replacing the proprietary ball joint on my Elgato Key Light because it wouldn’t accept a standard 1/4" thread or conventional ball joint. Frank immediately showed me how to remove the original ball joint and replace it with a standard one, giving me the flexibility to mount the Key Light on a post. What took me hours of searching and frustration, Frank solved in just a few seconds. On top of that, he recommended a Ulanzi quick-release ball joint that works perfectly with my setup. Thank you so much, Frank. I’m still enjoying the SONY ZV-E10 I purchased from you. If I could, I would give Frank 10 stars!

Awesome experience at the art of portraiture class and videography class presented by Karla! Our model Shelby was also top notch. Staff inside was knowledgeable and helpful.

My experience at Samy's Camera is always positive and leaves me feeling like a valued customer. Today, I went into Samy's to purchase a Tamron 35-150, a lens I've been saving up for months. My good friend Frank, who sold me an FX3a months prior, remembered me like no time has passed and knew what I was there for. He rang me up and handed me a great deal for a five year warranty protection so my equipment is properly insured. For all my future purchases, I will be going to Samy's and asking for Frank again because I know he is honest and great salesperson.
