Used them a few years back for a lens service and I got very good service from them, so if I had a need in the future, I would def use them again.

Lehman in Stoke on Trent, very efficient service, replaced the shutter on my 1Dmk2, great service.
 
spoke to lehmanns
sounds pins in the cam got damage, replacement £162

so repair or not too repair

Was that for the £105 + vat and postage? If so then I'd say that was a very good price! :cool:

Well worth making a note of their name. Sorry for sounding thick but what do you mean by 'si screen'?

The SI plate/screen resides above the focusing screen and is a thin clear plate onto which the focusing point are marked (hence the term superimpose).
