At Film Camera Store, we understand that the anticipation of receiving a new (or new-to-you) camera, a roll of classic film, or a cherished accessory is part of the joy of photography. That moment of unboxing is the first step in your creative journey. We’ve designed our shipping process to be as reliable, transparent, and accessible as our curated collection of gear—because your story shouldn’t be delayed.

Our Shipping Philosophy: Thoughtful & Global

Based in the heart of Seattle, we serve a global community of photographers. Whether you’re a beginner in Berlin ordering your first Camera Starter Kit, a collector in Tokyo sourcing a rare Medium Format lens, or a film enthusiast in Melbourne stocking up on Colour 35mm Film, we are here for you. We ship worldwide, connecting your passion with the perfect tools, no matter where you compose your shot.

(Please note: Due to complex logistics, we are currently unable to ship to a few remote regions and parts of Asia. You will be notified at checkout if your location is an exception.)

Your Shipping Options: Clarity & Choice

We offer two straightforward shipping methods to suit your needs and timeline. Every order is handled with the care of a fellow photographer, undergoing a final check before it leaves our workshop.

  • Carriers: DHL or FedEx – chosen for their proven reliability and tracking.
  • Cost: A flat fee of $12.95.
  • Timeline: Please allow 1-2 business days for us to carefully process and pack your order. Once shipped, delivery typically takes 10-15 business days.
  • Ideal For: When you want a balance of speed and value. Perfect for that DSLR Camera you’re eager to start using or the Filters you need for an upcoming project.

2. Free Shipping (For the patient planner)
