Lens as described and quick delivery. Carefully packed with plenty of bubble wrap as original box not available. Fast focusing and very sharp images even at full aperture.

Dave - LCE Exeter - Extremely knowledgeable and helpful
As a novice to DSLR photography, I went to LCE in Exeter in the hope that someone could advise me on an appropriate used camera and lenses for wildlife photography at a budget that worked for me.
Dave could not have been more helpful. He gave me some great advice and suggested a Nikon D3200 which at £199 was a fantastic start up camera. Dave showed me some pictures he had taken with his own camera using a variety of lenses so I could choose a lense that worked for me. He sourced a used lense from another branch. I bought the camera and only after, I checked online reviews which absolutely echoed Dave's advice.
Dave was extremely knowledgeable and helpful and I will definitely be returning as I build my camera equipment. A fantastic service. Thanks Dave 😊

"All Round Great Service"
I have been looking for a good used Olympus 40-150 PRO for a while now - just really for a bit longer reach when travelling. LCE!! "All Round Great Service". Product Description [Actually Better Than Described], Price, Packaging, Delivery. I actually thought LCE had made a mistake and sent me a new one.
