Our London camera store is now open at 34 Rathbone Place, and we’re excited to welcome you to the brand-new Park Cameras Central London location.
We originally opened our London store in 2013, five years after launching our purpose-built Sussex showroom, and in 2025 we relocated just 130 metres from the original site to a new, brighter space, which is also on Rathbone Place in Fitzrovia.
We remain right in the heart of central London, with excellent transport links via Oxford Circus and Tottenham Court Road, and quick access from Heathrow via Paddington.
The newly designed camera store in London is laid out on a single floor for easy browsing of 1000s of products, and features dedicated sections for all of the major camera brands including Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm, Panasonic, DJI, Leica and more.
In the new store, customers will find a hands-on display table, an optics zone modelled after our flagship bird hide in Burgess Hill, and a wide range of accessories, gimbals, bags and tripods to touch and try in store.
We also offer a comprehensive range of second-hand cameras and lenses, with used gear added to our stock every day. Customers can trade in equipment, sell their old gear to us, or finance an upgrade with interest-free options available. We also offer camera repairs, passport and visa photo services, instant printing, and in-house sensor cleaning. Read more about our services below.
As Authorised Dealers for many leading brands, our expert team receives regular training to help customers at every level, from first-time photographers to working professionals. We are proud to be rated EXCELLENT on both Trustpilot and Google, and we always value your feedback after visiting our store in London.

Upgrading equipment can be made easier with part exchange or the sale of existing gear. We are happy to provide customers with competitive quotes quickly and easily. Read more on our trade in page.
As repair agents we provide a full manufacturer authorised repair service for those experiencing faults with their photography equipment.

Dimitris’s passion about photography started the first time he saw a photo being developed in a dark room during his Fine Art studies in Greece in the early 2000s. Since then, he’s worked in the photographic industry in many different positions: wedding and baptism photographer, gallery curator, magazine art critic, lab printer, freelance event photographer, managing a printing and personalised-gift shop and leading the London Park Cameras team as an assistant manager since March 2024 and as a Manager since April 2025. His passion is event photography, from circus and live music to burlesque, but also loves to play with different cameras and lenses to explore wildlife photography, landscape, astrophotography and even experiment with drones! He’s currently using Sony A7 IV and a variety of lenses.
Ale is passionate about landscape photography - especially small seaside villages - and a great fan of long exposures. In his spare time he loves shooting street photography, as well as covering a variety of events. In the future he hopes to shoot more astrophotography.
