Camera Repair Services Inc.

Camera Repair Services Inc.


Background...
Stop by Camera Repair Services Inc. to get all the equipment you need, or to repair your camera so you don’t miss out on capturing your holiday traditions. Camera Repair Service, Inc. has been established for about 75 years, and has been in Market Square for about 20 years. Moving from the previous location on Smithfield Street to Market Square was a great move; they feel customers have so much more access to the store, and can easily stop in for drop offs and pick ups on their lunch break while they spend their time at the many restaurants available in the area.

Services...
They specialize in repairing and servicing every camera, film or digital, old and new, as well as video and A/V equipment, all lenses, flashes and other accessories. Their technical staff has almost 30 years of experience, and prides themselves on efficient service for their customers. Repairs are estimated within a couple days, and normally finished in about a week’s time. They have access to a variety of parts and tools, often for cameras that many other repair centers will not even work on due to the age of the equipment.

Not just cameras...
In addition to repairing all photographic and video equipment, they also have a large inventory of refurbished items for sale. Most of their available equipment is displayed in the cases surrounding the walk-in area of the store. They have a selection of newer digital cameras and lenses for professional equipment, as well as almost every format of film camera made (35mm, 120, 4x5 etc). New students looking for a manual film camera have found the shop to be a great resource, as they always have lenses to choose from for their equipment. Clientele looking for video transfers can also utilize their services. They transfer most tape formats to DVD for $25/disc, and also do older film reels at .10/foot.

More information...
Check out their website as it is a great resource for those out of the area too! They have cameras shipped in from all over the world to repair here. Visit their page at www.camerarepairservice.com, which also has a full list of inventory items that is updated regularly.

Fun fact...
The world map wallpaper surrounding the interior of the shop was kept from the travel agency that used to do business out of this building, and it was kept as a cool feature for the store. A few folks from the G20 summit found it interesting to find their location when they stopped in during their visit.
