Technorama 617 needs repair

Film transportation on my Technorama 617 (first model) broke (2nd time). Film

advance doesn't stop, camera body shutter release doesn't work. Any one knows

a good repair person? I was told this was a very common problem with the

original model.

Did Linhof fix this problem on their 617 III and 617 SIII?

You can contact HP but I'm nearly sure they will say you need to send your camera back to

Linhof in Germany for repair. That's what happened to me about two years ago when my

617s (fixed lens) needed a small repair. You have to call them and get the address, send

your camera, they do an estimate and then send you their banking tranfer info. You have

to deposit the cost of the repair in thier bank and then wait for the repair....three weeks

minimum but they do a great job, they even cleaned up my viewfinder and recoated it

without me asking. The girls in (linhof) customer service do speak some English.
