Old Bronica S lens repair?
Greetings, a lot depends on the lens repair needed; the older S/S2/EC lenses did not have leaf shutters (except 105mm LS), so most competent repair techs can do CLA - clean lube adjusts and minor repairs as needed. The lenses are mostly modest cost, so replacing cracked or gouged elements is usually not economic (a replacement element would be more like $300-450 US$ from most optical houses like SRB, if they would consent to make one). see http://medfmt.8k.com/bronrepair.html for some past repairers specializing in bronica classic cameras; many will have lens "donor" parts see http://medfmt.8k.com/mf/repairsites.html for list of general repair shops and so on... there is also a link to zip code lookup of local repair services site... hope this helps - bobm -- ************************************************** ********************* * Robert Monaghan POB 752182 Southern Methodist Univ.
