<p>I just broke out my RZ67 Pro II from storage and on one of my 220 backs the film advance knob had broken into three pie-shaped pieces. Needless to say, short of trying to glue the three pieces back together, I need to find a replacement knob. I am not even sure if this would be a "do-it-yourself" job or if I would have to send it into a repair shop. I believe KEH in Atlanta could repair it, but if it were a matter of just a quick fix with a small screw driver or wrench, I could save some bucks, if only I can locate a replacement for the broken knob. If there is anybody that could lend some advice, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks, Dave. </p>

<p>Hello John,</p>
<p>I read your recap with interest, as, I too have an RZ system which I purchased used @ eight years ago around the time the DSLR cameras were becoming more widely used. I was starting to shoot a few weddings and portraits on my own as a little side business, having shot Bronica medium formats and Nikons. Anyway, to try to keep up with the curve, I "went digital" with my work and the RZ laid idle for the most part. I still have it and am excited about breaking it out and beginning to use it again. Everything is in good shape, as I had it stored in an airtight Pelican case. My question is about processing. I do not have an expensive scanner nor do I have a darkroom. Can you recommend to me a decent lab that can process my film and commit it to a CD for me to post edit? I suppose I will be shooting color as I can change the image to BW in computer of course.<br>
Also, I tried to link to your RZ examples and the link is not longer working. I would like to take a look at them.<br>
Thank you for your post and any direction you can provide.<br>
Regards,<br>
Dave</p>
