I have been out of photography for some time and have put the ye'old Pentax-6x7's back in action. :D

Anyone know of any good repair outfits in the US that can give these jumbo's a good tune up?

I have a few bodies that i used in the field that can use a little CLA. :wink:



Cheers!

Erick Henderson at www.pentaxs.com does a good job. I sent him a Spotmatic but that's little a brother to the big 6x7, right? :smile: I see at his page that he does 6x7s and I can't imagine him doing a bad job on these. My little one came back as new.

Thanks! I will give them a try.

You never know who is really good or not with all the different websites.

Eric just got a camera back to me a couple of days ago. It seems to be running perfectly now.

Pentax USA still accepts 6x7's for service, all except for the earliest non-MLU bodies.

Agree that Eric is also worth considering. He did a shutter repair + CLA on an MX body for me recently - the job was reasonably priced and completed within the promised time.

Eric replied to my email and seams like a stand up guy.

Going to box up the cams and send them on there way!

Thanks for the recommendation!
