Estate sale digital camera on the bench tonight. I picked it up for $1 because it “didn’t work”. Battery terminals were severely corroded and found one of the button extensions broken inside. After some cleanup and a piece of strategically placed 3D printer filament - it works! #electronicsrepair #camerarepair

Hey SF Bay Area, any recommendations on camera repair shops?
I've got a couple lenses that need work (auto focus module replacement, things like that) plus I'd like to get my gear thoroughly cleaned and serviced, ideally without having to ship it somewhere. It's a little too hard to trust online reviews, so I'm looking for personal recommendations. Sonoma County is OK, as well as Sacramento, though it's a little more off my beaten path.
Thx!

CW: Request for assistance with film camera repair
Poking around on a #repair of a very inexpensive Canon EOS 5 QD (film, equivalent to the Canon A2)
It runs very hot and drained a new battery in minutes; the flash capacitors test at a normal capacitance for the listed values, but this board (Canon part 1550 - DC/DC assembly) smells funky. Anyone know what the component 254 Yd- is? Position label on the board is PG.
The flash caps test normal, and we have spares for those anyway. The battery has shown at a normal level on other cameras which take the same type (Pentax SF7) so whatever is faulty on this board is causing the battery to discharge hard, with gradual recovery afterward.
If anyone knows anything which might help, please let me know <3
