    Need to have my Shen-Hao 4x5 Repaired

    Hello,

    I have a 4x5 Shen-Hao camera I purchased back in 2003 that is in need of repair. Basically, the rail on the wooden bed of the camera is coming off and the movements of the front and rear standard are not smooth.

    Does anyone know of any repairers of Shen Hao cameras? Or if not Shen Hao repair specialists, can anyone recommend a good large format repair shop?

    I live in Denver, CO so am looking for someone in Colorado or on the West Coast preferably.

    Thank you,
    Ross

    Even though he's not in the west, Richard Ritter is widely known as a superb resource for LF repairs.

    I've had to use Gorilla Glue on my wife's Shen-Hao a couple of times. Great little camera but you get what you pay for.
