Broken Mamiya aperture blade

[kansas_parker]

An aperture blade on my C3's 105/3.5 just broke loose and now sits in the middle of the lens. I was planning on using this camera to shoot my wife's sister's wedding next month. I intend to look around Tokyo for a replacement, albeit a different focal length (135?). Can anyone recommend a good place to get this lens repaired? The glass is excellent and I want to keep using it.

Not in Tokyo... Essex Camera Repair in the CONUS. They seem able to handle everything.

Good luck!

Thanks, I've sent them an email for an estimate. I'm glad I caught this now and not after the wedding while looking at the negs.
