CLA - who besides Grimes and Flutot?
Can anyone recommend any US sources for LF shutter CLA besides
SKGrimes and Flutot's? Grimes are good but a bit pricey, Flutot's good, less expensive, but temporarily not accepting work. Thx. steve To reply by direct email you'll need to excise the 3-letter food item. |

If they don't do this anymore they can certainly direct you to who does. Speak to either Jeffrey Kay or Jeffrey Ithan. Hope this helps, Dave PS - Great large format source as well. |

Thx. steve I've not used them for large format, but KEH of Atlanta has an online quote system that indicates $35 for a non-disassemble cla. There's no option for a full on cla, but you could always call and ask. www.keh.com |

They are like the KEH of LF. -- Reality-Is finding that perfect picture and never looking back. www.gregblankphoto.com |

I can't vouch for the following personally (do my own shutters) but they have good reputations: Paul Ebel 420 21st N P.O. Box 141 Menomonie, WI 54751 The Focal Point John Van Stelten 1017 South Boulder Road Suite E-1 Louisville, CO 80027-0027 Tel.- 303-665-6640 Fax - 303-665-3803 http://www.411web.com/F/FOCALPOINT/ John mostly repairs lenses but I think he also does shutters. Ken Ruth Photography on Bald Mountain Davenport, CA 831-423-4465 Phone calls Wed & Thur 9-5 and Fri 9-Noon. http://www.baldmtn.com/ Not cheap but very good. John F. DeLoach at John does Rolleiflex's but may also do general shutter repair. There are probably others. Most photo retailers do not have their own shops and farm out repair work. Keep in mind that some shutters are difficult to repair because parts are not available. -- --- Richard Knoppow Los Angeles, CA, USA |
