They are an absolutely great place for camera advice. They develop film, buy, sell, and appraise cameras, repair all of it! As for the film development comment below. They only develop black and white film as of now and they only do it in bundles. So my suggestion is bring 4 – 6 rolls of film and they can get it done faster. It’s also cheaper this way for them as a business! So yes if you bring One roll in you just might wait 2 months for your film. The owner has been nothing but a pleasure to work with and he always has great advice on cameras, seeing as I myself collect vintage cameras and use them. This is another WONDERFUL denton business that

The owner of this establishment is extremely unprofessional and I was verbally attacked during my last visit. Up until my last recent visit, I had encountered only positive results at DCE. When I dropped off some film two months ago, I was informed that it would take a while(he didn’t know how long), but that he would call me when it was ready. He took my phone number and I left. I waited patiently, hesitating to call because I didn’t want to be a bother if it was not finished yet. Finally, after 2 months, I called and was told it had been ready a while. When I asked why no one had called me, I was given the excuse that they were«busy» and didn’t get to it. So, when I went it, I mentioned it calmly again, during which time Armand proceeded to get angry very quickly, yell at me, and call me «sweetheart» sarcastically and tell me not to tell him how to run his business when all I did was say that it would have been nice if someone had called me when that was what I was told would happen. When I finally gave up the argument(I had not yet raised my voice) he continued verbally harassing me until I informed him that he was the only one talking anymore. This establishment is run very unprofessionally, and the owners are very disrespectful towards their Customers.

It’s so small that you may miss it, but the giant letters saying«Denton Camera Exchange» on the back wall guide you to the front door. It’s small, dark, got a cool Indian rug, and embodies that old vintage vibe that camera geeks and photo hipsters love. Every wall is literally covered with tons of usable or decorative aged film cameras. They have your Holgas, a few Yashicas, the SX-70s, and an always dependable Polaroid One Step to purchase. The guys up at the counter are really cool and extremely knowledgeable. They can also repair cameras too. The biggest thing that I love is that they sell tons of instant film along with negative film to purchase. They even sell Impossible Project film — which can get pricey with shipping. It’s great for browsing and the best place to pick a gift for your photographer friend.

In a word: BEST! Holy cow, these guys have EVERYTHING for the film photographer! A very large selection of(very reasonably priced!) film cameras. A ton of hard to find vintage Brownies and Polaroids to boot. A wide selection of film SLRs and lens to go with too. Film, tripods, bags, disposable cameras, paper, you name it, it’s here. I highly recommend me coming here even just to marvel at all the cameras. I could easily be lost in here for days and I can’t wait to go back!
