Go to a Spanish owned shop. Someone advised me never to buy a camera from an indian owned shop.

Some of the Indian owned shop are fantastic and treat the customer correctly

I agree with 9+ OH got one from the Asian shop in Parque Santiago 3 CC - come down the escalator and turn left (same side as escalator) and on the next corner - had it years and is very good. Didnīt cost a fortune either.

OK my mistake. I should have qualified my remarks. What I should have said is ....be careful in Indian owned shops. The owners are extremely pleasant, most of them, and good business people. They will be often very charming and not pushy or aggressive but....watch the prices and compare. Compare with the UK. Go to Jessops website. It is a fallacy to think that camers and scopes are cheaper here in Tenerife. Not so. Not no more! But some Spanish chains have better prices and good deals. Do your research online first.

Ok, so I'm replying to my own thread :D


There is only one shop in Tenerife and it's located in Los Realejos in the north.

You need to send an e-mail to ask what they have in stock or what you want and if thet don't have it, they might be able to order it. They do delivery as well.


And there is also shop in Gran Canaria
