At this point I can’t recommend @adorama to my #photographycommunity or those that follow my work. I’ve had a pretty bad headache at dealing with them especially during these times struggling as a photographer. @amazon & @bhphoto are my preferred choices. I’ve had too many experiences having to return poor copies of lenses & exchanging them in order to get good copies. . I haven’t completely ruled out #Adorama but each experience is getting worse. Today I found out they have a customer grading system!? Maybe we need a camera store grading system for those who rely on photo tools as working tools!? Apparently @Adorama doesn’t like it if you ask for a lens exchange if you get a bad copy of a lens? And they refuse to expedite any exchange process when you’re in a bind or getting ready to travel or limited on time!? With today’s mass production of mirrorless lenses by big camera manufacturers this is a huge problem which is evident by all the discourse on this topic via forums like DPReview & Fred Miranda. I test all my gear before those sales become final but Adorama seems to frown on this & their reaction is more abrasive than either BH or Amazon. BH knows the business better & knows about bad copies of lenses. . Photo was captured by me out in #BerylUtah in the #earlymorning using the #Zhongyi #mitakon35mmf095 lens wide open.
