B&H is helpful. Customer service is easy to reach & work with whether its product information or a return. I purchase photography products and outside of Nikon's website I buy everything from B&H because I feel a level of trust with them. I have confidence in the information they provide whether its bag dimensions or a tripod recommendation. I've bought filters, lenses, bags, tripods, silica, the list goes on and on. I have also sold lenses to them & felt completely comfortable in doing so, the process was smooth. A side note, I use a Hide my Email with all websites, each one has its own. B&H has never sold my info but other sites have, I can tell by which email the spam is sent to. Thanks for being honest B&H!

The Undisputed King of Gear: Why B&H Photo is a Content Creator’s Best Friend. Whether you are a seasoned photographer, a YouTuber building out a new studio setup, or a creative looking to upgrade your audio-visual game, **B&H Photo Video** remains the gold standard. Here is a breakdown of why B&H is the ultimate one-stop shop for creatives, and the financial "cheat code" that makes buying from them an absolute no-brainer.
* **The Catalog:** From high-end mirrorless cameras and studio lighting to niche grip equipment and custom audio interfaces, they carry almost everything.
* **The Specs Matter:** Their website is practically an encyclopedia. The product specs, Q&A sections, and user reviews are incredibly detailed, helping you make informed decisions before dropping serious cash on gear.
* **Flawless Shipping:** Their fulfillment is legendary—often arriving faster and packaged more securely than major general e-commerce giants.
2. The Game-Changer: The Payboo Card (Comenity Bank). If you buy gear regularly, the **B&H Payboo Credit Card** (issued by Comenity Capital Bank) is a mandatory addition to your wallet.* **The Tax-Free Hack:** Camera gear is expensive, and sales tax can easily add hundreds of dollars to a single purchase. The Payboo card offers an **instant reward benefit equal to the sales tax** on your purchase.
* **How it works:** When checking out, B&H instantly applies a credit to your order that completely offsets the sales tax.
* **The Savings:** On a $2,500 camera body, you are instantly saving around $150 to $200 depending on your local tax rate. That is money that goes straight back into buying extra batteries, memory cards, or lenses.
The Verdict. **5/5 Stars** ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. B&H Photo combines a massive inventory with top-tier customer service. When you pair their industry-standard expertise with the massive tax-saving power of the **Comenity Payboo card**, there is simply no better or more cost-effective place on the internet to build your photography or content creation toolkit.

I had a fantastic experience shopping with B&H Photo Video. The entire process was seamless, but what truly stood out was the exceptional customer service. A representative named Josh O. assisted me, and he was absolutely outstanding. He handled my request with incredible efficiency, saving me time and making the whole interaction completely stress-free. His helpful attitude and professionalism turned a standard transaction into a highly positive experience. B&H Photo has always been a reliable retailer, but employees like Josh O. are the reason I will keep coming back. I highly recommend them for their great service and dedication to their customers!

I recently purchased the Bright Tangerine Titan Arm 2 for my Ursa Cine 12K from B&H Photo, and the entire experience was seamless. The B&H website made the process incredibly easy with its clean layout, detailed product specs, high-quality images, and straightforward checkout. Finding the exact Titan Arm 2 variant (3/8"-16 Anti-Twist to NATO) was simple with their excellent search and filtering options. Shipping was fast, packaging was secure, and everything arrived in perfect condition. B&H continues to be a go-to for professional gear thanks to its reliable service and transparent pricing.
My first Titan Arm 2 itself has been a fantastic addition to my BM Pyxis 12K rig. It's well-built with a smooth gradient locking mechanism and 360° ball-and-socket joints that make precise positioning effortless for monitors or accessories. At 11" long and supporting up to 11 lb, it feels rock-solid yet adjustable, with interchangeable mounts that fit my setup perfectly right out of the box. I'm excited about how it enhances my workflow with its quick adjustments without the fuss and jankyness other arms have, and it holds everything securely during shoots. The 2nd Titan Arm 2 in orange I picked up will be used on my Ursa Cine 12k. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a premium articulating arm!

I tried to place an order and my Payboo card was declined. I called customer service, and Daniela spent 39 minutes on the phone with me to resolve the issue. I feel that she done an excellent job. She contacted the card company directly, along with others to resolve my issue. I am very happy with the service that I received. I trust B&H to always do the right thing. I always look to B&H first whenever I order a related product. B&H has demonstrated that they are a very reliable and honest company.

I've ordered from B&H multiple times and talked with their support and sales, and have always been impressed. They know their products well and can make recommendations that make sense. I appreciate that they have used gear available too.

B&H is my first stop when looking and I recommend them to my friends.

I've been a B&H customer for over a decade now, and will be for life. They continuously offer the best customer service around, especially for working professionals. I bought a used camera from them earlier this year, and a few months after, it started having issues. Even though it was past the return and warranty window, they honored the return in exchange for a store credit to put towards a new camera. Can't say enough good things about B&H.

Original Review: June 10, 2026
I run a wall art print business selling on Amazon. On April 21, 2026, I ordered a Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-4600 production printer from B&H ($4,200, Order #**, paid via their own Payboo credit card) to fulfill customer orders. Promised delivery: 5–9 days. It is now June 9 — almost two months later — and I am still fighting for basic resolution.
Here is the full timeline: The shipment was lost by their freight carrier (ABF). Every day of delay meant Amazon orders I could not produce and income lost. During the delay I moved, and requested a delivery address change. B&H agreed multiple times but failed to process it for over two weeks. On May 11, I gave up waiting, rented a truck ($200), hired movers, and spent a full day picking up the printer from the carrier's terminal myself. The printer arrived defective out of the box: hardware error EC15-2E23 (4801), faulty ink supply system, broken components, shipping damage, and a missing roll holder. Still no working printer — still no way to fulfill my Amazon orders.
B&H refused to arrange repair. Instead, their representative told me to buy a SECOND printer ($5,300, Order #*8) on my personal credit card, promising the defective unit would be picked up and refunded promptly. The defective printer was picked up by their carrier on May 26, 2026. Two weeks later — no refund. When I called, B&H redirected me to ABF Freight, even though my contract is with B&H. ABF confirmed the printer has been sitting in their warehouse since May 26 because B&H never provided return instructions or paid for return freight. Three separate B&H representatives promised to "resolve it within a week." None followed through. I have spent almost two months on calls and emails just trying to get B&H to treat a customer who spent $9,500 with them with basic respect.
The damage so far: $4,200 charged for a defective, returned printer — no refund. $5,300 on my personal credit card now accruing ~30% APR because the promised refund never came. $200 truck rental plus movers caused by their failed address change. Weeks of lost revenue from Amazon orders my business could not produce while waiting for a working printer. I have full documentation: order records, the May 26 pickup confirmation, ABF's statements, photos of the defects, and call logs. I have sent B&H a formal demand letter and will be filing a billing dispute and complaints with consumer protection agencies if this is not resolved. I am ready to update this review as soon as B&H issues the refund and resolves the return.

Hello Anna. We regret your dissatisfaction and sincerely apologize for your inconvenience. I have reached out to you via e-mail so we may come to a resolution. Please keep an eye out for an e-mail from me. Thank you. ~Geoffrey Ngai / B&H Photo-Video
