I am a canon guy.
They bought some of my old equipment.
They have a great selection of equipment and lenses. They spent a lot of time letting me try some lenses.
The sales people were knowledgeable.
I had no idea they were here, wish I had known sooner.
Update 1. My new lenses are much larger than my old lenses so I needed a new camera bag. So I stopped in with a bunch of my gear. And they have a very wide selection of bags. I know nothing about bags, well, very little about bags and so I spoke with one of their sales people who knew a lot about bags and I'll tell you they very very quickly. Quickly got me to the perfect bag and help me try...I am a canon guy.

Quickly got me to the perfect bag and help me try it out. And I don't think I could have purchased a more perfect bag. I say very quickly but they spent at least 20 minutes with me.
And they held onto my equipment while I went to look at a few more things so I could buy a nice teleconverter and they verified that it would work with the lens I wanted to use it with. At another fabulous experience, this is an awesome place
Update 2: bought a used body and a used lens. Got a great deal.

We were just going to pick up a telephoto lens rental that we placed on the website to test our new camera and went out of the store with a new prime lens and another camera. You will get hooked up on this store! Awesome store, great service and the staff, especially Dwight took his time in helping us, very important!!

Absolutely loved doing business with Midwest Photo! I was looking to trade in my old Fuji camera so I could upgrade. I was able to easily schedule an online consultation to assess my gear. Casey was incredibly kind and helpful throughout the entire process. He not only sent me a shipping label fast, held a lens for me for when the camera I wanted was back in stock, and shipped everything quickly, but he was able to beat other photography stores' offers for my gear! I have been loving my new camera, and would happily shop from Midwest Photo again!
