Konica Hexar RF CLA and adjustments

[1dave]

Can anyone recommend a top quality repair facility for a thorough CLA and adjust for a Hexar? Focus seems to be a little out of wack.
Thanks.

I would strongly advise you to avoid Precision in CT USA. Give Greg Weber a call.

Seconded! Dont use Precision! Actually there are instructions how to do it yourself some place here, I think - just google it. I did it myself on one of my Hexars and its not difficult, if you have some tools and some experience working on cameras.

If I recall, Weber probably still can do adjustments and the like, but I don't think he can get parts. (Why can't he get the parts, while Precision, which obviously can't handle servicing the Hex for some reason–is the camera that hard to fix?–can get all the parts they need? Do we have to call in the 82nd Airborne to knock some sense into Sony?)

Check some of the other Hexar threads, there is someone new in Germany (?) with parts working on these as well.

Hexars are pretty simple to clean. Google it to find instructions, but even if you don't it would be hard to mess it up.
