massachusetts repair lens?

Any reccomendations in MA for repairing a Tamron lens and Canon 7D? Prefer around the Concord MA area... not sure how to go about looking a place up. thanks...

I have used Sanford camera repair on mass ave. in Arlington for two lens repairs and was satisfied by both. Haven't given them a body to repair.

When needed to service my lens, I just shipped it to Tamron in NJ. Without asking for that, they turned it around in four days including shipping. If I need to do it again, I will not bother with looking for a local outfit.

Same with the camera. Canon turned it around in a week. However, it was not exactly inexpensive, but that's another story.

yeah, i don't know why you'd go for a local repair center, instead of straight from the manufacturer...tamron just announced a 3-day turn around on their repairs...and canon is usually about a week from shipping to back in your hands

Thanks for giving your experiences. I saw doing a google search how Tamron's turn around was great...

So sent out the Tamron to the manufacturer... so far so good

Cool deal!! BTW got the lens back from Tamron and looks brand new. Price was reasonable also.
