  • broken tape repair LA / Camera service/cleaning

    Posted by Bruce Greene on November 4, 2007 at 6:40 pm

    I’ve just finished shooting a project and one of the tapes broke when placed in the 1200a deck for capture. The tape will need to be spliced or reattached to the spool.

    Does anyone have a recommendation for someone to perform this task in Los Angeles?

    Also, the working conditions were windy and dusty and my camera may be quite dirty inside. (it also took a fall in high winds, ouch!) Any suggestions for a place to service the camera and check for damage to the camera/lens?

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the suggestion Paul.

    I did get the tape repaired by a nice man in the Panasonic service department. The good news was that the break was after the last take!
