HOME
Eurotech Camera Service was opened in May 1994 in Austin, Texas.
I, Sorin Marcu, have extensive experience working in a factory on photographic and optical instruments. I have worked with and repaired German, Swiss, Swedish, Russian, and Japanese cameras. I worked alongside professors from the German company, Carl Zeiss Optic, and I learned to construct parts from scratch for the cameras since they could not be ordered in the country during the Communist regime.
In 1983, I worked in Austin for the largest photography store in the city, Studtman Photo, in the service department focusing on repairing cameras. These included the following format:
- 35mm cameras (Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Olympus, Kodak, Minolta, Yashica, Fuji, Sears, Petri, Rollei, Voigtlander, Leica, Exakta, Retina, Praktica, Kiev, Zenit, etc.)
- Medium format cameras (Hasselblad, Mamiya, Rolleiflex, Yashica, Bronica, Kiev, Practica, Agfa, etc.)
- Large format cameras (Graflex, Toyo, 4X5, 5X7, 8X10, etc.)
- Film cameras
- Digital cameras
- Specialty cameras

Camera and Lens Calibration
Calibration is a series of micro adjustments that makes sure that the camera and the lens work best. An uncalibrated system may lead to issues in images sharpness. Calibration is necessary over time as weather, vibrations and aging can affect the timing, movement and alignment of mechanical and optical elements.
Sensor Cleaning
CCD and CMOS camera sensors sometimes require cleaning. Unwanted dust or oil spots can make their way onto the sensor surface - which shows as a spot on photos taken.
For DSLR and mirroless itis usually straighforward . For compact cameras it requires more patience and work. When I clean the sensor I make sure that the mirror and the focusing screen are not the issue.
Repairs - mechanical parts and electronics
I do have access to some parts for older cameras. Sometimes I need to source the parts.
For newer cameras, I order directly from the manufacturer.
I replace shutter, gears, sensors, displays, controls and camera mother board.
Camera Cleaning
I meticulously inspect cameras and lenses in preparation for cleaning (inside and outside). Cleaning consists of removing excess of oil, dust and cleaning of fungus (when possible).
