Pro Canon Camera Repair

9 years ago

Has anyone come across a good camera repair center? Ive always been a photographer as a second business and a hobby. Now I am here in Colombia (Monteria) I have one of the bodies repaired (EOS 30D). Canon has informed me there are three authorized repair centers, 2 in Bogota and 1 in Medellin.

Sumotech (Bogotá) Carrera 43 #14-86, Zona Industrial Puente Aranda Tel.: 268-0516 / 1-8000-110823 /268-0518 Email: [email protected]

CV Trónica (Bogotá) Calle 68 No. 12-57 Tel.: 348-1573 / 300-370-9398 / Email: [email protected]

CV Trónica (Medellín) Carrera 48, Centro Comercial Monterrey, #10-45, interior 3 en el sótano de parqueaderos, Tel.: 444-0229 / 301-552-7537 Email: [email protected]

None of them answered emails.

I called both in Bogota and both times I spoke to a receptionist and really wasnt able to answer questions. I even had my wife spoke as well because she is the Colombian lol. As far as Medellin I must be dialing wrong or they closed. In any event I am a little concerned sending expensive gear through the mail especially here. Im curious if anyone had any experience with them or even passed them to get an eyewitness of how professional they appear. We used to have a FotoJapon here but closed a little over a year ago.

Thanks for any input
