Sent in my AE-1 Program that had been sitting in a drawer for years. They diagnosed it quickly, sent a clear quote, and had it back shooting perfectly in under 3 weeks.
Brought my Hasselblad in for a full CLA. Isabelle did incredible work. Communication throughout was excellent and the camera came back feeling brand new.
Mailed in a Contax T2 with a stuck shutter. Got a detailed quote within days, approved it, and had it back shooting within two weeks.
