About - Downey Camera

3rd Store Location

Downey Camera is the third store to join the Mac Star chain, which first began in Anaheim with Mac Star Computers. The chain expanded to Corona with the opening of Mac Star Cameras, catering to the growing demand for quality photography and videography equipment. Downey Camera was founded with the idea of helping photographers, videographers, content creators, and beginners access high-quality cameras and computers without the financial strain.
