Camera Techs, the business I've used for camera repairs in Seattle closed last June. I have a Compur shutter that needs CLA (clean, lube, adjustment). Who do you recommend? I'd prefer Seattle since it's only 100 miles away, but I'll take leads for anyone in the USA.

Carol at Flutot's has always treated me very well. Quite often there is a waiting list, so contact them first.

Pro Photo here in Washington DC does a great job on servicing mechanical camera gear. I trust them with my Rolleiflexes, and they recently rehabilitated an iris for my Cooke 10.4" Series II. And their turnaround is generally pretty fast - a couple of weeks if they're busy, down to a couple days.

In the northwest anyway, Advance Camera Repair in Portland,OR: www.advancecamera.com. They're working on an FM2n for me right now, but I don't know if they service LF shutters.

I can second Carol Miller at Flutot as a competent repair person.

cheers
