We stock the most innovative and current equipment and accessories to suite the style and scale of any production.

We have been at the forefront of photographic/film/video rental and sales in South Africa for over 10 years, often acting as pioneers in the industry, and always staying ahead of our competitors by continuing to be a leader, bringing top industry products to local professionals.

Our place of business houses 3 large studios used for stills/ film shoots, or product demos and workshops. These areas of the double storey building are always teaming with action making our premises a hubbub of activity along with the front of house area on the ground floor where our sales and rental department work from. It is a one-stop-shop where we are able to facilitate whatever our clients’ needs are. We take a “full assistance” attitude; from the studios to sales, it is all conveniently available to customers. Service and support is available at every level. We are therefore able to have a lot of face-to-face contact whereby potential customers can be informed of the products we stock, and are able to explain why they should purchase it. Over the counter sales are frequent as well as telephonic sales and enquiries. We have many walk-ins as well.

Cine Photo Tools also maintains a fully-functional e-commerce website, www.cinephototools.com, so we aim to be one of South Africa’s top online destinations as well. Our customers can purchase cameras, lenses, rigs and accessories all online and we ship to all areas in South Africa, thus our commercial reach is far. Our site is fully integrated with our online and social marketing and we have a large online database.  Our potential customer influence is therefore vast.

Most of our staff all have experience within the photographic, broadcast and film industry. They are equipped with the necessary knowledge and training to impart to clients. Our great service equals customer loyalty. Based on our long-standing reputation for fantastic customer satisfaction and experienced, loyal and ethical staff members throughout the years, our name is always at the top.
