I have an RB67 and my prism viewer's exposure meter isn't working. Mamiya seems to have lost it's web page, do any of you know of someone that works on these?
Thanks, Frank

I concur with Mac Group as posted above.

However, the RB67 is a fairly conventional MF film camera and you can probably find a number of repair companies by googling Mamiya RB67.

Mamiya is still in business, but unlikely they still support the RB67.

I would take a run at www.keh.com. They do service on Bronica, so might on the Mamiya.

I will add this.... the cost of service on the metered prism will very likely exceed picking up a used metered prism on eBay or other.

Thanks for the info, I will be sending it in. I picked this up for a lot less than I could have on ebay and I have a problem with tossing it and buying another.

Frank, there used to be a guy down here in the East Bay in Danville that did Mamiya repairs. Wally, of Apex Camera Repair. He fixed my 645 a number of years ago. IF he is still in business, he would be worth seeking out. Very good reputation and close enough to the foothills to make a drop off and pickup feasible.

The last phone number I have for him is 925-838-3231

Well, I sent my part to Zacks Camera Repair, he did it at a fair price and faster than I expected. I can't say enough good things about him and recommend him in a heartbeat.
None of the 'big stores' were interested.
