About Us
About Us
Since opening the doors to our first camera store in Melbourne in 1970, Ted’s Cameras has grown to become one of the most beloved camera stores in Australia. Over the past 50 years we’ve gone from strength to strength, and now offer a range of digital cameras and photography accessories that is wider and more diverse than ever. As we celebrate our 50th birthday in 2020, we’re proud to reflect on our achievements over the decades and look forward to many more years as Australia’s leading camera store.
Our Company Mission
Though the times - and technology - have changed over the years, we’ve remained committed to our mission: Bringing Australian photography lovers the latest and greatest photography gear from around the world. Whether you’re a hobbyist or a professional photographer, we want you to get the best digital camera and accessories for your toolkit. That’s why we promise to only sell you 100% Australian stock that comes from authorised, genuine Australian suppliers. By shopping with us, you can be confident that none of your products have come from the grey market, and will be able to develop your photography skills with the best tools available.
Our Values
Innovation
At Ted’s, we’ve always been ahead of the curve in bringing new photography technology and equipment to the Australian market. In the 1980s we brought Australian photographers the first video cameras, and in 1994 we were the first Australian camera store to stock digital cameras. In recent years, we’ve introduced the local market to revolutionary new photography tools like full-frame mirrorless cameras and photography drones - and we can’t wait to see what the next 50 years will bring.
