What can I say! Absolutely amazing service from start to finish! Hats off to Max for his assistance and professionalism. My Profoto light was returned, fixed, the following day. Also serviced without me even asking for it. Well Done Luminary Lighting, I will be rocommending these guys to everyone I know.

After a minor accident with a profoto flash head, I sent it for repair to Luminary Lighting. Their communication and quick turnaround time meant that I had the flash back in just under a week. Excellent Service.

Completely dishonest company, their Profoto bias is a huge con. The units are utterly unreliable with only a select few repairers ready to fit the over priced spares. Buy Bron and pay once, but Profoto and spend the time regretting it

Very pal'y when you splash money around but as soon as a product is faulty they dump you, such a quick turn. They you'll see their mean side, which considering that they make a huge amount of money of hard working photographers, is utterly shameful of them. Don't buy kit from them, as they don't honour trading regulations
