LENS REPAIR - EF 16-35mm f/2.8L??

[wblati]

Can anyone recommend a place that can repair a Canon 16-35 f2.8L lens? I've looked at FIXATION but they don't repair the version 1 - only the 2 onwards.

The issue is that it has a hard time focusing. Sometimes it gets it - but does take a few tries. Also during video - the focusing is loud (not smooth).



Thanks.

A J Johnstone in Glasgow are probably worth a ring

You could try H Lehmann in Stoke-on-Trent

They are still listing the Mk1 on their lens repair page

Thanks - I did see this site. I was a bit cautious - as I didn't know if it was a real site or not. Will send them a message

Definitely real.

I've not really needed their services since I switched to Sony in 2013, but Lehmann are an official Canon service centre and have been around for 20 years to my personal knowledge.

Would highly recommend Johnstone as used them twice over the years to repair My 16-35 f2.8L lens . Last time was what i thought was a replacement lens but it was superbly repaired

Lucky you. Don't use Fixation there are better alternatives by far.

They are good as gold. Did a repair on my 7d when I dropped it straight down and sheared the lens off it. Came back like new.

Cannot Fault H,Lehmann they repaired my R7 when it developed a fault.

I used Alan Marlow (recommended by someone else on here) a couple of years ago to repair my EF 24-105L. He has some fixed prices for standard jobs.
