Mamiya Lens Shutter Repairs
I have now had 2 Mamiya RB67 lenses separately repaired by Black on White - http://www.bonwcameras.co.uk/
I will be sending any of my Mamiya or LF lenses in need of TLC to them. I found them reasonably priced and gave a list of all the items checked and adjusted when I had my lenses CLA'd The turn-around time was about 3 weeks for each lens. I originally approached Newton and Ellis in Liverpool but they seemed rather reluctant to tackle Mamiya lenses with in-built shutters and have a rough quote of about twice as much as BoW actually charged.

Thanks Martin.
I've been checking over my Mamiya TLR kit and find I have an 80mm lens with sticky aperture ring, and my 250 has the first specks of fungus in it! Sounds like I now know where to send them. |

Thanks for the link and favourable review Martin, I have a TLR lens that could do with some tlc.

I have just got my Icon Nettar 6x6 back from Newton & Ellis, just had it CLA'd. I found them to be great and the turn around was two week's. Its come back like a new Camera.
I just today posted my Kodak Retinnette of to them for the same, as the shutter is sticking at slower speeds. Flack |

I think you mis-understand me I am not saying Newton and Ellis = bad and Black on White = good Sorry if it came over this way. What I am saying is Black on White = very good for Mamiya When I get round to getting my OM1 serviced I will be sending it to Newton and Ellis for a CLA. Martin |

I've used B on W in Bristol a few times over aperiod od around 15 years and found them to be excellent. They've rebuilt two Rolleiflex cameras for me and serviced a Yashicamat plus some LF lenses.
