Tamron to stop Bronica Repairs

[kiss-o-matic]

Not sure on what models they still repair, but I've sent my Bronica RF 645 in (for the 2nd time as they didn't fix it the first). This was my reply when I asked if they were done yet.

Sorry for the delay on this. We basically have to order all of our Bronica parts from Japan as we are getting close to discontinuing repair. We should have the part in within a day or two and camera should be repaired by the end of the week.

Send yours in if it needs to be serviced.

Well, this is Tamron USA - it seems they stop repairing in the USA. As it seems there are still parts in Japan, it looks like repairs still will be possible.

BTW, I think Tamron has to be commended on still repairing the Bronica cameras up to now.

You're right on the commending, and probably on Tamron Japan continuing repairs. Knowing Japanese customer service as well as I do though, you will do way better to find a local to proxy the whole thing for you if it comes to that.
