I live 1300 miles away, but Berger-Bros is my go-to for professional camera gear.

Not even sure where to begin. When you step foot in this store, it’s like going back in time. Customer service is a lost art. But there’s still hope! Berger Brothers is just that. Oozing with great customer service. When you walk in, you need to bring your patience hat with you. It’s super busy always, and now I know why. No one does it like they do. The guys behind the counter will spend all day with you if need be to make sure you’re outfitted with exactly what you need. Their inventory is huge, and there’s NO waiting for something to come in. Frank originally helped me with an entire Nikon setup for sports photography. Unfortunately none of the collegiate stadiums allow removable lens cameras. Brad the owner exchanged ALL my gear no questions asked 3 weeks later and Mark outfitted me with a perfect all in one Sony solution. Doug, with the patience of a saint took care of the entire transaction and got me in and out. Even if (which they aren’t) more expensive than a big boxed store, there’s no way I’d ever not support this place. They have what 99% of what retail business lacks in todays world, people who know what the hell their talking about. If you ever need a real camera on Long Island, this is the ONLY place to shop. You’ll want to hand over your credit card after the lessons these guys give you on your new gear. The experience is second to none. Thank you so much Berger Brothers Team!

Just purchased my second Nikon digital camera from Ben at Berger. I’ve been buying camera equipment from them for over 25 years and they always have stock on what you're looking for and knowledgeable staff that is great. Ben made my last purchase very easy. I went into a camera dealer much closer to my home in Plainview and the guy had nothing in the store. I mean not even demo stock to show a customer. Given Nikon does not allow discounting any longer you might as well but from Nikon directly. Berger makes online purchasing not a thing for buying a camera. They even give you a couple of camera courses for free when you make a good size purchase.

I’m a professional photographer and was in an emergency situation. It was a major flooding day (Friday night) (major storm) and I had an event on the next morning and couldn’t find my godox flash charger anywhere. It was 5pm and nowhere else was open. I called ahead and they said they would be open until 6pm. My whole shoot would have been a disaster without this amazing store. Thank you to the whole staff for staying open even during a storm and for having the most up to date equipment for sale to save me . They are incredibly knowledgeable and only have the best inventory for photographers. I will be a loyal lifetime customer :) thanks everyone!

What wonderful service and just as the store was closing! I brought my underwater camera in for repairs and whether it was worth fixing. The kindest gentleman (didn't get name) took the time to examine the camera, speak with me about options and even though the camera was not salvageable and I didn't purchase a new one then and there I HIGHLY recommend this great store.

I am a West Virginia resident and have been on the hunt for a new Nikon Z8 with no luck. I stumbled upon Berger Bros. Camera through both a Google and Facebook search in hopes that they may have what I was looking for in stock. I spoke to Brad, President, Berger Bros., and told him that I had been searching for quite some time and also that, if at all possible, to get an order in before my wife and I leave to go on vacation. “Let me see what I can do for you,” he said. Long story short, Brad put all of his effort into making sure that my camera order was filled, shipped before my wife and I leave for vacation, and that I received eligible rebates from Nikon for accessories that I purchased in tandem with the Z8. Berger Bros. Camera plays second fiddle to nobody and I for sure will be a returning customer, regardless of where my home is.

Brad Berger is wonderful to do business with. After “patiently” waiting for 8 months for a product from a big box store Brad found what I was looking for and shipped it out the next day!! Berger Brothers is my new Go To camera shop.

Berger Brothers Camera provides exceptional service and they have extensive product knowledge. They have been able to get me photography equipment others could not. Dealing with them is very personal and a much better experience than the big online store. Give them a try.

A longer detailed review will be coming. For now I will say I am disappointed at the customer service and up charging by the owner after I had spent $3200 in his store.

Absolutely stellar experience and extremely knowledgeable team! Brad, Doug, Ben, and Frank were not only super welcoming, but they are experienced & educated! I had originally ordered a canon eos r5 body & RF 24-70mm F2.8 L IS USM lens but my order was cancelled and boy am I thankful that happened. Not only was I able to pick up the canon eos r5 and the lens same day, I was able to grab some great accessories to really complete the whole package. This is definitely your one stop, end all be all for anything photography/videography and more! My purchase even came with some free in person classes to help home my skills! Ecstatic about my new camera and the fact that there is a local team I can trust a couple towns over from me whenever I need something! Their level of professionalism and knowledge is unrivaled!If you’re not shopping here, BIG MISTAKE! Brad and team will make your time worthwhile & they care about their customers. Businesses like this, that really treat their customers like family, are hard to come by!
