I would like to get referrals for expert repair of Zeiss, Balda, and Agfa 2 1/4 folding cameras from the 50s. I am in the NYC area and would be grateful to find a good source for shutter repair etc of these great old cameras. I also have large format lens.
Many thanks
Steven

Since most, if not all, of the 1950s german cameras used Pronto/Prontor or Compur shutters repair manuals or instructions for these shutters will be very helpful. They are available on ebay from time to time.

There are also some on-line sources for shutter maintenance, such as Daniel Mitchell's great site

www.daniel.mitchell.name

or Rick Oleson's page which can easily be found with Google.

Steve,
Do it yourself. Once you see it done, you'll never send your cameras out again. E-me, come on over, I'm in NYC. I'll show you how to do it.
