Olympus 35RD Repairs

If you would like your Olympus 35RD repaired please fill out the contact form at the bottom of the page.

Service

£100 (or £120 if you would like a new leather finish)

The Olympus 35RD is a brilliant camera but is plagued by the common issue of oily shutter blades. This causes the shutter speeds to slow down and in many cases jam completely! 

The following will be completed as standard during a full service:

1. The camera and lens will be dismantled, the shutter blades removed and individually cleaned before being reassembled.

2. The rangefinder patch and focus checked and adjusted where necessary.

3. Light meter checked using a calibrated light source across a range of EVs.

4. Self timer checked and relubricated if necessary (these often jam over time especially when not in use).

5. Viewfinder cleaned 

6. Old light seals removed and replaced.

 

New leather finish 

£40 (half price if in for a service)

All of the available coloured leathers can be previewed here.

 

Light seal replacement

£40 (included in the price of a service)
