Can anyone recommend a place to reasonably repair an old Vivitar zoom lens. It's an old (early 80's vintage) lens that was my first "upgrade" in camera gear to the AE 1 Program in high school. I'd like to get it fixed....ahhh...just because. The zoom barrel seems to have come loose and wobbles around.
Thank you,
Brent

I am glad you said this because I would have had to ask, ... why?

I do understand as I just had my old buddy a Canon F1n cleaned and lubed. It cost me $200 bucks. S guy I ran into told me that was more money than he would spend on a camera let alone just to clean one.

Yes, I understand "just because".

I'd like the lens fixed for the same reason I really want to pick up a Miranda Sensomat with 50 mm. My Dad gave me a Miranda when I was in 9th grade, and that's when the fire was lit. Ahhhhh, the days of high school, when we bulk loaded all of our own film, learned to process B & W and it was free from school. Almost as good as digital today!
