The video below is from the stores CCTV & shows two low lifes stealing Sony equipment. If you have a Fb account do please share
Three members of staff watch them come in, nobody goes to check on them. Or at least go and ask do they need any help.
Really does look like three people, one doing paperwork another playing with a camera, and another just sitting seemingly not doing a great deal. Surely the person sitting doing nothing, should have gotten up to greet them.Two, the third is a mannequin but no less alert it seems.
Definitely looks like three staff (and a mannequin) to me. There is a person just about visible in the top left sitting on a stool along with two more visible people.Two, the third is a mannequin but no less alert it seems.
Unbelievable they could just pick up the kit like that.

Oops, didn't notice the third person first time I watched it. Seems I'm about as alert as well
Nice crystal clear images, I can see them scumbags being caught pretty quickly.
That video has been edited heavily, news reports outlets have said that the lads spoke to the staff 3 times.
The edited version did make it look like staff did not approach the men, they must have felt comfortable with them, to let them wander about by themselves. I also thought staff had not bothered to greet the men. A quick sorry to the staff..After reading your comment I did a search and found this text:
"Clifton Cameras in the UK is asking for help this week after a CCTV surveillance camera caught two thieves stealing £4,000 (~$5,700) worth of Sony cameras and lenses from the company’s camera store in Dursley, Gloucestershire.
The edited 1-minute video above shows one of the suspects handing a $2,000 Sony a7 II and 28-70mm f/3.5-5.6 mirrorless camera kit to his accomplice, who then shoves it into his jacket.
In addition to that kit, the thieves also made off with a $750 Sony RX100 III camera, a $1,000 Sony FE 24-240mm F3.5-6.3 OSS lens, and a $1,500 Sony FE 70-200mm f4 G OSS lens.
“We’d like to point out that this is heavily edited video to show the faces of the thieves,” Clifton Cameras writes on YouTube. “The full footage from the CCTV shows that the thieves were approached three times by members of staff when they were in the shop. ”
“None of our staff could have preempted that a cabinet was going to be broken open by the thieves,” the company says. “The management are satisfied that all members of staff were sufficiently vigilant and professional. This incident has left the staff in our store feeling quite shaken and feeling very responsible.”
Text was from HERE
I'd originally thought the camera gear was just left out and from the video it appears they were ignored by the staff. It seems this wasn't the case so apologies to anyone from Clifton Camera's reading this.
