Leica for repairs and cleaning.

azul123 · 13th March 2005

I just got hold of a Leica R4 with Summicron-R 50mm F2.0 lens. The camera requires major cleaning and so does the lens.

Anyone know where I should go to for these services? and any rough guide on the cost for lens cleaning. There are fungus in the lens and wonder if it after cleaning will it be as good when new?

Information on above is much appreciated, thanks.

Cam-X or Prime Cameras would be my first choice. I heard Ron does a good job too.
