Looking for a place to clean some lenses from dust and also removing fungus on one of my lens which is the canon 70-200
 also what is the price for lens cleaning and fungus removal? saw one stating canon service center helps remove fungus on lens for rm120, which is much lower than i was estimating. but asking if there are some other that can give lower pricing thanks |

QUOTE(sp6068 @ Sep 15 2017, 08:04 PM) Canon has their own service center at HQ building in Shah Alam opposite KTM Subang if you're within the area. Otherwise will need to send for service at 3rd party shops. ouch. subang is pretty far. gonna have to go for 3rd party ones then. i heard about YL Camera providing this service. will check that one outAs for charges, you will need to bring in your gear to their centre and technicians will check and an SMS will be sent to you along with the quotation. If you are agreeable, then only we will proceed to repair/service.  |

QUOTE(sp6068 @ Sep 17 2017, 12:21 AM) Then why not go teros to Canon's official service center at Subang? Can naik LRT and go there. Got one pedestrian bridge over federal highway can walk across from LRT to the main HQ building. preferably not too far also la. plus i'm not sure how much they charge also. minimum for checking only already rm50. if later found out price is too expensive won't fix there. wasted time and also rm50 poorer lolhttps://goo.gl/maps/nNCaS6zaovP2 https://goo.gl/maps/1YZviG8w64n |

QUOTE(sp6068 @ Sep 17 2017, 12:33 AM) Idk about that. I PMed Canon Malaysia few months back to service my dslr body they said they will check, sms you quote then only ask to proceed if wanna repair/service. Fungus removal must be difficult kot. yeah that happened to me too before when i sent my kit lens for repair. the check, sms the quotation and ask to proceed or not. iinm, rm250 to fix a kit lens with a bad AF like wat lol. might as well buy a new one anyway, they still charged a basic fee, which i'm not really ok with |

QUOTE(Cha3m @ Jan 2 2018, 04:38 PM) Basic fee? haven't yet go to the cleaning service. no time until now since it is far away and all I want to sell of my camera, but there's a fungus so I need to remove it first. How much did they charge you? Official Canon will take 10 days and a minimum of RM120 for the service, so did you do it at 3rd party or official? also mine isn't very serious so i think i should be fine for a while. less than a millimeter in diameter and there's only one of it anyway, this was what i was quoted by their fb team https://imgur.com/a/j95Vp (not sure why this forum can't take imgur images anymore) This post has been edited by graphidz: Jan 2 2018, 09:35 PM |

QUOTE(Cha3m @ Jan 2 2018, 09:52 PM) Lol, that’s quite a long time and you still haven’t proceed with the cleansing lol. yep. i'm a bad person So Im looking at a maximum of RM200 for cleansing, okay I guess.  anyway, rm200 if they don't need to replace anything. if they do, then that'll cost extra |
