• No one seems to be doing the repairs now although apparently they still repair them in Japan as they have parts but seems like on one here or the US is doing anything now with them when they bricks.

    The word cheap I think is a loose word, Id say £5/6 is cheap but with the ones from japan you'll get fuckin humped on import duty and stuff. When I visit japan im gonna buy a few next!

  • I've said it before but the guy here https://www.fotonaprawa.pl has repaired a Ricoh GR1, Ricoh GRll and a Fuji GA645 for us. All with shutter problems so a new ribbon cable was needed. Which it seems to also be common on contaxs ( had a TVS repaired by another person ) so if you have some broken T2s it's worth checking with them.

  • My issue with my current T2 is that in certain points when shooting in sun or high brightness it gives a light ring on some photos not all but some and that's the seals falling to bits inside. So far no one has been able to fix it, might shoot your man a message.

  • Thanks for this. I have a 35Ti that hasn't worked properly and no-one in the UK seems to be able to repair. Apparently an issue with the main flex but who knows. If anyone else has had the same issue and resolved hit me up!

    Before I post in the classifieds, is anyone interested in either of the following

    Olympus XA £150, recently serviced, new seals, replacement gold button (https://pppcameras.co.uk/olympus/p/olympus-xa-shutter-button-brass). Definitely works

    Olympus XA2 w/ flash and box £100, serviced 12 months ago. 95% sure it works - havent put a roll through in 6 months. Also have new seals ready to install just haven't done it yet. Obviously if it turns out not to work I'd give a refund - just don't want to put another roll through just to confirm before selling it.

  • Ohhh thanks for the share.
    I have a TVS and two GR1s that all need some work, have given them a shout.
