I've been to Cal Precision a couple times, but I've never actually had them repair anything. Last event had to do with a hood dented A*300 f/2.8 that, also, needed the aperture linkage repaired. They couldn't give anything like a serious estimate as didn't even know how to access the system and had no idea what the hood would cost. They finally uttered a pretty high number as a possibility, but I'd have to leave the lens and after they had a chance to look into it, they'd give me a call. I thanked them and later shipped it to Colorado. Was a surprisingly low cost ($100) for the hood and repairs. I was happy with my choice.
