District Camera and Imaging: what do users think?

Jon Bauer: In Washington for for a conference and found myself in immediate need of a card reader. Not the easiest thing to find. But when I googled nearby photography stores they came up. Only a couple blocks away. Not only that, I was met with most knowledgeable & friendly staff I could imagine. The store is stocked with new & used equipment. A small downtown oasis!

Emma K Alexandra: I’ve purchased many items from District Camera including a camera and lens. The quality of the products new and used has been fantastic. However, when I rented a lens for the weekend my experience was absolutely horrible. District camera has two account systems. One for their shop and one for rentals. Rentals require an ID, which is reasonable. This is tricky for me since I am transgender and my legal name does not match the name I use. When purchasing items I use my account with my preferred name on it. When I signed up to rent I used my legal name, so it matched my ID. I didn’t want any issues. I was able to rent the lens. But when I returned it I started to have issues. The person I returned the lens to asked if they could change the name on both of my accounts. I said no. I’d like to have my preferred name used on my store account. The person then said he was confused and it would be easier if they changed the name on both accounts and did it anyway. Despite me asking them not to. Now, I’m faced with having to use my legal name when I purchase anything from District Camera. This is awkward and embarrassing. It makes me never want to purchase from District Camera again. This experience shows that District Camera is not a trans friendly business and does not respect even the basic dignity of trans people. I tried my best to make this experience quick and simple and I came out of my rental never wanting to purchase from District Camera again. Very disappointing behavior. If District Camera wants to improve their respect for trans customers they need to allow the use of trans people’s preferred names and only require the usage of a legal name where absolutely necessary, like matching an ID. Their employees need to understand that not everyone wants their legal name used all of the time. And they certainly need to stop changing the names of trans people’s account to their legal name when specifically asked not to. Update 5/2/22: I understand that District Camera must accept an ID. That is not my issue. My issue is that my name was changed *in another account* for no apparent reason, even when I asked the person not to. I had to explain to the person I was working with my gender in front of many other customers

Leica Store Washington DC: what do users think?

Richard Burg: A great store with great products and a superb staff. Each member of the staff is an accomplished photographer who willingly shares knowledge and technique. Particularly recommended is the individual photography classes offered by David Bickley.

Haresh Mehta: The store without a doubt lives up to the Leica standard. No rush rush sales pressure, no up-selling, just a fantastic educated opinion from Leica Ambassadors. I met with Christopher, he helped me trade in my visoflex and get the new one, completed the paperwork for the service of my m10R, while I enjoyed browsing through their gallery and books. Happy to buy from here and revisit.

Rashad Smith: Aperturent is very convenient! You can just order and pick up the same day. They don’t always charge an arm and leg for deposits. I hope they continue to stay the way they are. Definitely recommend to try them.

Isaac J: Such a cool spot to rent. They have more than competitive prices without the shipping costs for locals. The only knock is drop offs. They only have weekday hours, so commuting into the city during the work week is tough. I’m hoping they’ll have drop off partners in Virginia and Maryland.

Schedule: Closed ⋅ Opens 11AM Thu

Telephone: +1 703-412-2808

Business type: Camera store

Metro Camera: what do users think?

John Zhao: Very informal for passport photos. Their attitude is horrible. She ask me to leave for dissatisfying with the unofficial passport photo she took. And it is overpriced, $15 !!! I can get a much better photo in DC at that price.

Brendan Brady: I went in to Metro Camera Center to get a passport photo. When I took it to the post office they measured it and said it was not the correct size. I went back to Metro Camera Center to ask for a refund, and the store manager said he could only give me store credit. That is fine, except he was rude and suggested that the only reason I came back was because I did not like the passport photo. I informed him that the post office measured it and said the size was not correct and he proceeded to argue with me. If you are getting a passport photo taken, just do it at the post office. If you need any other camera supplies, there are many other stores who treat their customers better.

Dodge-Chrome, Inc.

Address: 4885 MacArthur Blvd NW #1, Washington, DC 20007, United States

Schedule: Closed ⋅ Opens 9:30AM Thu

Telephone: +1 202-333-3270

Business type: Digital printing service

Dodge-Chrome, Inc.: what do users think?

Jon W.: We went to Dodge Chrome to have holiday cards produced. A family member went in to the store to look at and approve printed drafts. The store gave us multiple different drafts, some of which had radically different and unsatisfactory white balance. We reviewed the results as a family within the next hour or so and immediately called back to ask for clarification. We were just told that the cards were already "printed" and that no changes could even be discussed. Keep in mind that this was on a $1,300 order, and the request for clarification was made two hours after of the visit to the store.

Faisal Mohsin: I have had the unfortunate experience of losing a full C6 black and white roll of film which was destroyed during development. I was told this was because the roll became detached from the processing rack while in the developer bath and was not discovered till the end of the processing run, after which the roll could not be salvaged. This was obviously bitterly disappointing. Staff have expressed regret and unrecoverable errors are an unfortunate fact of manual film development. Still, I have not lost a roll of film in many years of shooting on traditional formats. Skilled tradespeople and reliable equipment are becoming harder to find as film has become an enthusiasts hobby. I would recommend going to a specialist who may charge higher prices for this work but who could carry it out with painstaking care than risk immeasurable and unrecoverable loss.

Photo Scope Studios: what do users think?

Timothy D: I should have written this review a long time ago, but hesitated because I don’t it want to affect their business due to my experience. However, after some time to reflect I feel that I should at least warn customers. But, I am sure some had a good experience there. Several years ago I called them to ask what the price was for 4 passport photos, and I was given the price by a worker. Then, after having my pictures taken, the owner wanted double the price. I was suprised, but he said he worked there for 23 years (at the time), and that’s the price he is demanding. But, if I wanted he could give me half the number of passport photos (2) for the price I was quoted. At that time, the worker who answered my call tried to disappear in the back. I pointed to that employee and told the owner, that his employee gave me that price. The owner responded that his employee “just works there”, and “he doesn’t know the correct prices”. I should have not paid for those pictures at the new price, but it was getting late in the day, and I needed them that for my passport the next day, so I decided to pay. Thus, for several years I keep thinking back at this bait and switch tactic used at this business in Arlington VA. Thank you, and I hope your experience was different than mine.

Ryan Coughlin: Tony did excellent work in creating my canvas photo a while back. He was engaging, efficient, and is seriously adept with Photoshop.

Limelight Restoration

Schedule: Closed ⋅ Opens 10AM Thu

Telephone: +1 202-709-7269

Business type: Photo restoration service

Limelight Restoration: what do users think?

Jonathan Nadler: Roy and Will are talented, patient, and fun to work with. I brought them a set of family pictures — many between 50 and 100 years old — that needed to be restored and harmonized so that they could be framed and hung as an integrated group. This included pictures contained in photo albums from the 40s and 60s as well individual photos. In some cases, the photos had to be significantly cropped to fit the size required. In other cases, the tone and color needed to be significantly altered. Working together, we came up with a set of 12 prints that capture the experience of four generations of my family. I was especially grateful for Roy’s many helpful suggestions and for his willingness to try to implement my evolving ideas — even if it sometimes took a few tries to get a result that I was happy with. Considering the skill and effort that they made to help me realize my vision, I think their prices were reasonable. I hope to have the chance to work with them again.

Mala Velamuri: Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, ValueI took in a bunch of very old (1940s) family pics that were faded, and somewhat damaged. Limelight restoration did a great job restoring them! They seem very passionate about what they do, and are very polite and courteous. These pics are very precious to me, and they understood. I was very happy with the whole experience!

Mike Tike: Gary is the best. I was looking for ZV-E10 ( sold out everywhere you can check that right now) but I swore it was sold out. He told me hd actually had one and the color I wanted. He looked all over the store and finally found it. That’s customer service you won’t find at Best Buy. I’m so happy with my purchase this is the only place I’m going to for camera equipment and vlogging gear.

W Russell: I found this place by walking around Falls Church. For a photographer or anyone interested in any level of photography, this place has it all! Prices are reasonable and the customer service is 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟!! Gary, the owner, is super friendly and knowledgeable in his products. GREAT PLACE!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! Keep up the great work Dominion!
