Hello,

I am very much interested in learning repair of classic cameras. I wish someone could give me some advise how to start with.

I have thought of getting a faulty camera (probably Canon Demi) and learn repairing in the guaidance of some expert. I beleive jumping right to SLRs would be too much for a beginner.

What do you say about it? Also please let me know about this idea. Is that workable? Did I choose a correct camera to start with etc.

Looking forward for your advise.

Regards,

Rizwan

There are some good books in local libraries. The Tomosey series may be helpful. Also overhaul manuals for spedific cameras on EBay.
