Camera Repair Secrets
Ed Romney's Camera Repair and Restoration Information
Camera
repair books by Ed Romney, learn the techniques and secrets
required to repair antique to modern camera equipment yourself.
Revised and Updated March 2003 With a New Secure
Server - more info
THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR PHOTO WEBSITES ON THE NET! Photographers love the Romney Website because
here you learn how repair your cameras at low cost and keep them
dependable for decades. We actually reveal all the TRADE SECRETS OF CAMERA
REPAIR, found nowhere else in our popular book, REVISED BASIC TRAINING IN
CAMERA REPAIR. This $39, 132 page, 100,000 word spiral bound text has been
praised in Popular and Modern Photography, in Petersens Photographic, in
Library Journal, PPA, PSA and foreign photo magazines. Thousands of
libraries have purchased it. The public loves Romney's book, though camera
stores will not admit it exists. All our books are
kept in stock. We are very much in business... and eager to serve you.
PHOTOS:
Basic Training Text has over 300 photos and drawings like

Ed took this
beautiful rainbow picture with an Agfa Karat he bought second
hand for $10 and restored in a few hours using the repair
methods taught in his repair texts.
HOW
YOU WILL BENEFIT FROM KNOWING CAMERA REPAIR
As a photographer
you will be able to check out a camera ...so you will own the
best cameras always working - at low cost. Often you will be
able to spot trouble before your camera breaks down. It now
becomes practical to buy and use second hand cameras. As a dealer or collector you will be
able to buy non working used cameras at low cost and fix
them up to sell. Many fine professional and classic cameras
are very cheap if not working. Recently I bought a
jammed Leica in near mint condition for $100 and fixed it in
less than an hour. A customer of ours bought a Hasselblad in
a yard sale for $5. I bought an original 1888 Kodak for $50
and sold it for $2000 a few years ago. Some classic cameras
are worth as much as $80,000. Camera repair is a good trade
too. With a shop you can bill $75 to $100/hr for repairs. As
an employee you will earn $25,000/yr or more and there is NO
unemployment.
Most of the camera repair people who worked on the great classic
cameras, such as Zeiss, Leica, Graflex, Rollei and Nikon are now extremely
old. Many have already died off, and the trade is in danger of becomming a
"lost art." Here is a good opportunity for younger people to take over.
Only in my books are the real trade secrets of camera repair revealed.
A word to the wise: Camera repair is not affected by wars or economic
recessions as other businesses are. When times are bad,
people are more apt to fix up their old
cameras...instead of trading them in for new ones, you see... And when they
travel less, pictures become more important to them.
