My Ikonta has a very stiff focus and shutter times are slow, it need's a CLA and maybe some repair. Who would you recommend?

Thanks

I've never used him, but Mark Hansen writes emphatically about repairing this and other cameras. http://www.zeissikonrolleirepair.com/page04.html

Someone else on the group recommended him. Maybe he will chime in.

I bought an Agfa Isolette II from Jurgen at Certo6. It has worked wonderfully since I purchased it.

I last had my Super Ikonta Bs serviced by the late Mr. Umbach, probably the last factory trained repairman. However, the manual for my Contax IIa state that camera can be serviced by any competent camera repairman, so I assume same is true for folders. The repair nightmares are Contaflex and Contaflex.
