Ltm lenses need a CLA

[initialssb]

I own four Leica lenses, a 35 and three 50mm. All could do with a cleaning.
Can anyone suggest a expert and reliable Leica lens cleaner with a track record for quality service?
I live in Dublin.
Information on cost/how to deliver very welcome.
Thankyou.

John here is my favorite. Excellent communication, excellent work. The last Summar I sent him ran $100 plus shipping for a CLA, and it was deadly sharp w/ no flare afterwards.

I recommend Peter at CRR Luton (UK) 01582 570395. Phone him and chat it through. Don't bother with the email. I send stuff to him by post, recorded delivery. I know post from Ireland is a bit more expensive but it shouldn't be too bad.

He can be very busy...

Thanks Steve.
I'll have a look at that site after work.
And it's Seán, not John.
We Irish are very pedantic when is comes to names "as Gaeilge".

Thanks Michael.
I'll give that guy Peter a ring on Monday.
Much obliged.

Seán I think he was saying John was a good fellow to use for a CLA.

As good as they come, never send anything anywhere else.
As an added bonus, you always learn a ton of stuff when you talk to him.

'John' = John van Stelten @ Focal Point, Seán! 🙂

Interesting the difference a comma makes, eh?

Thanks all for clearing that up.
And for pointers to other repair centres.

If you send out 4 lenses, it may be worthwhile to check out the person Eddy Smolov has suggested to me. I posted his name in some RFF thread recently. He is in NYC.
