    Any Lens Cleaning Services?

    I want to clean the dust out of my 18-250mm lens, anyone know a reliable cheap place I can bring it to for some service?

    Don't know about cheap, but Michaels in Elizabeth Street are very reliable.
    Cheers

    Hm... I think I may have gone past their shop - what's a rough estimate of their price to clean lenses?

    You might want to get a couple of quotes. I know that in Adelaide the prices charged can vary quite a bit.

    Google "camera repairs sydney".
    You'll get all the big city stores: George's, Paxton's, etc, and a few suburban ones. There's one in Ashfield.
    Also try Whilton's in Elizabeth St, and another I can't remember the name of a block or so N of Whilton's still in ELiz St..

    I just saw this at the end of this thread, and nearly missed it as a reply to Bit's Melbourne services.
    Consider starting a new thread if the location is vastly different.
