Hello RF,

I live close to Boston and looking to see where i can get my Mamiya 6 a good CLA. Any pointers would be appreciated?

Thank you,

To the best of my recollection, there was someone in the Chicago area who works on Mamiya 6 cameras. Perhaps someone else could jump in with the name of this person.

If I find his name, I'll get back to you.

I did a search and found an earlier thread with this information:

Are you in the US? If so ship it to Bob at precision camera works in Chicago. He does great work. Sounds like your camera needs a CLA. It will run you about $300 for a full CLA but is well worth it.

and this later post in the same thread

I called Bob and it's going to be more like $400 + s/h both ways to get a CLA.

They also mention Advanced Camera in Beaverton, OR. I've used Advanced Camera before and I can state they are reputable and do excellent work.

I have used Nippon Photo Clinic in NYC/Manhattan for my Mamiya 6 cameras and have been very satisfied. www.nipponphotoclinic.com. Prices are reasonable.

Point of curiosity: Is this about a new Mamiya 6 (interchangeable lenses) or the old Mamiya 6 (folding bellows lens with rear focus)?

To the best of my knowledge, this was about the new Mamiya 6 with interchangeable lenses.

If you are looking for someone to work on the old Mamiya 6, you could contact the vendors mentioned to see if they also work on those cameras, too.
