    Does anyone know where I can get my Canon FD 28mm f2.0 repaired? The focus ring is stuck. I have not used it in years. It is very well used, but has not suffered any trauma. A replacement "ugly" one at KEH is $634!

    I live in Los Angeles, CA.

    you can search around but this is basically specialty shop category of do your own research.....

    https://www.photo-darkroom.com/digital-or-film-camera-and-lens-repair-service seems to be localish to you and may be a good option.
    found that on https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/4580446

    Looks like you have a very nice rare lens worth well over a grand if in great shape. (More of a collector item really.)

    Thanks. I'll take a look. It is so much harder to find repair shops now.
