What customers say
I took my Nikon FG in to be serviced and they were super friendly and helpful. They did a great job going through that camera and making sure it was lubricated and the timing of the exposures was right. While I was in there I saw a Nikon F3 That I thought was super cool.
Went in for a body repair and cleaning of my mother's AE-1 Program. Camera came back looking and functioning brand new in only a couple weeks! Service price is fair, getting the quote was easy and straight forward, will definitely go back again when I'm in the city and need another camera serviced.
Very nice experience. I took my two vintage film camera to see whether they can help me repair that. It was Brian at store who served me. At first, he said because the camera were both one part and cannot be dismantled, they could not help me with that. I was a little bit disappointed at that time.
I've been working with them for years to fix up many older film cameras. They've done an outstanding job with a whole batch of 35mm cameras up to a handful of medium format cameras. I'll be referring to these guys for years to come. Always a pleasure to work with.
