[chris91387]

i was rewinding a roll of film and the rewind knob fell off in my hand. i think i have all the washers (3). :bang:

anyone know where i should have my camera fixed? i've heard mixed reviews about DAG. i've heard sherry mentioned a few times. i bought my camera from youxain back in january.

i live in los angeles. surely someone local here fixes leicas.

any suggestions are appreciated.

thanks,
chris

You could try Stephen Choi down there. I've been very happy with Sherry's turn around time, always as quoted or I get a call.

You can do this yourself most likely, you'll need a small jeweler's screwdriver for the set screw. PM me and I can send you some photos of how everything goes together.

follow up:

i emailed youxin and just asked him if he could fix this for me and how long it'd take and he said no charge. wow, what a great person to deal with. i bought this camera from him 8 months ago and have run about 15 rolls of film through it.

BIG SHOUT OUT FOR YOUXIN !!!!
