Infotech is a great source of camera-repair information. They distribute camera-repair manuals and articles that target the hobbyist, the collector, and even the professional who's searching for information on older cameras. The owners/operators of Infotech were directly involved in writing and illustrating the publications of National Camera, the school that fueled the camera-repair industry for many years.

Infotech web site also has several articles about camera-repair. You can read them at:

I highly recommend their general articles ("General Repair Tips" and "Cleaning Techniques"). They used to provide three more articles, not available right now due space limits ("Cleaning Optics", "Lubricating Camera Mechanisms" and "Testing Shutter Speeds"). The full articles are still available on the Web Archive Project at:

These five articles are the best information I've read about this topic. IMHO every camera-repair person should read them in order to fully enjoy this hobby.
