I know you said "preferably in the US", and I'm sure you'll get lots of suggestions, but I'll chime in with my guys here in Toronto, Komineks: http://www.kominek.com/ They have a former Pentax Canada repair guy on staff, who really knows what he's doing. FWIW, they also have a former Leica guy, too. Dave Chang-Sang (formerly of this list) brought them a Pentax zoom that Pentax Canada refused to touch (no parts), and Komineks repaired it, and at a very reasonable price. They've CLA'ed my MX as well as a couple of my Spots, with no problems. I don't know about ES's, but you could always ask them - they return e-mails very promptly. So, if you have to ship your bodies out anyway, going across the border won't make that much difference (well, it may be a bit slow coming back into the US, due to all that security stuff at the border, but it'll get there...). cheers, frank -- "It's about time we started to take photography seriously and treat it as a hobby." -Eliott Erwitt
