Bill, everyone here recommends Carol Miller at www.flutotscamerarepair.com

However, she has been having problems for years that sometimes limit how much work she can take on. Visit her site, shoot her an e-mail and wait for her to respond. Good luck, she doesn't respond to me.

Or just take it to any camera repair shop. A Copal shutter repair is very easy for any of them, providing parts availability, if they are needed.

Not everyone recommends Carol. I can't be waiting that long. I pay a little more and have a local guy do my shutter overhauls: Steve's Camera Repair in Culver City CA
