Hi,

My beloved Olympus Pen FT just broke. Any recommendation for USA repair people/shops? (John Hermanson aka Camtech Photo Services no longer works on them.)

Thanks,

Adam

Sure. Partway into a roll, the film advance lever started only going half way and the shutter button won't depress. I rewound the film and the problem persists. (The roll then worked fine in another camera.)

Since Pen FT bodies start at around $100, that might be something to consider -- and perhaps cheaper.

Send me a personal message and I'll tell you what I have available.

That's a good point. I'm wary about being able to get one that doesn't need servicing itself.
