cameraworks price list
This price list is applies to all jobs received on or after Sunday 20th March 2022
PLEASE NOTE: INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS ONLY. Until we can find a workable solution with His Majesty's Revenue and Customs that will not assume that every camera or lens that is sent to us for repair isn't a purchase, but a temporary import, the only way we can accept international work is if you agree to disburse us for those costs. They are typically 20% VAT of the your stated value of the goods being sent (plus shipping costs), plus import duty that varies between 0 and about 4.5% . Read more here.
IMPORTANT - NEVER SEND EQUIPMENT WITHOUT AN ACCOMPANYING LETTER OR BOOKING FORM!
Even if you have had a discussion on the phone or by email. We need at the very least, a short covering letter explaining the work you wish to be done, along with your full contact details and email address. We get so many phonecalls it is impossible to remember every conversation. We often receive equipment without any contact details or even any return address on the packaging. Without this, we can't book-in your equipment and we have to wait for you to contact us before we can move forward.

Repaints
All parts to be painted completely dismantled and stripped down to brass. Either traditional paint or Cerakote thin film ceramic coatings are used. We are fully equipped and fully experienced Cerakote applicators. All our repaints come with our unique 2 year warranty.
Apart from the early LTM cameras, we don't have to disturb any of the mechanical or rangefinder components so we don't have to carry out any servicing work, however we recommend our full service to be carried out at the same time. If you want to have a repaint only, please make this clear when you send the camera to us.
In the case of lenses, the amount of dismantling that has to be done means that we have to service at the same time and this is included in the price.
