Step 1) Price and approval
Scroll down to the Menu and find your classic camera model to see its service price. Then contact ACR to confirm the price and ask about current turnaround time (this also lets you know if parts or workload might affect your repair). Call (325) 676‑2524 between 11:00 AM and 5:00 PM CT, Monday–Saturday, or send an email to acrkori@gmail.com
Step 2) Shipping and payment
Pack your camera in a sturdy box with at least two inches of packing material on all sides. Include the Repair Order Form print-out (or a brief letter) describing the camera’s problem, and enclose a personal check or money order to ACR (Abilene Camera Repair) for the listed repair price. You can see an example of good packing on the “Packing Your Camera” page. (Click here for picture.)
Step 3) Ship via USPS or UPS
Ship your camera to ACR using USPS or UPS with tracking and optional insurance. Use this address:
ACR
401 NEAS RD
ABILENE, TX 79601
ACR offers three tiers of classic SLR camera restoration, and every level returns your camera to reliable working condition. The Gold and Refurb tiers go deeper into the camera, allowing more time for cleaning, lubrication, fine adjustments, and addressing areas that are likely to cause problems in the future.
Pricing is based on the time required, not quick “while-you-wait” fixes. A typical full service takes about three days to disassemble the camera, clean and lubricate mechanisms, reassemble, and adjust both shutter speeds and meter operation. Many of these film cameras are now 40–45 years old, so a proper restoration often requires many hours of careful, detailed work.
All camera service levels include the following:
- Basic repair of the camera to good working order.
- Lubrication of accessible camera parts.
- Adjustments to shutter speeds.
- Adjustments to meter setting.
- Replacement of film door foam seals. (Click Here for picture.)
- Replacement of mirror foam bumper.
- Cleaning the viewfinder.
- Replacement of parts that show excessive wear.
- *Some restrictions on parts. (Click Here to read.)
- Images of your camera are recorded on a DVD or USB flash drive after service.
- Free return shipping.
- One year warranty.
