Hello all,
calling upon your experience yet again...

I have an old Minolta X-700 manual SLR that needs a lil fix up and service.

Does anyone have experience with camera repair places in the sydney area and can recommend someone?

Many thanks!

JD

Hi JD
I don't have much personal experience with any particular repairer, but everytime I've rung someone for a quote, it's always been the same old story. Any non expensive camera is not worth fixing as the price of the repair is more then the value of the camera.
For that reason I have tried in the past to fix them myself, but I must say I have stuffed up more then I've fixed.
As far as reputation, I believe that a mob in Elisabeth St in front of Hyde park are pretty good. Whilton I think or something similar.
Good Luck.
