kford Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Depends whether it's the ?90 f1.8 one or the ?1,100 f1.2 one!There's a place in Kennington, opposite the big Tesco that does professional repairs. They will probably tell you it's not worth it though, in which case you should shift it on eBay as spares or repair.

louisemurray Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 The place poster kford is talking about is Fixation http://www.fixationuk.com/ - they will give you a quote for repair - Canon technicians. Maybe call them with the serial number first so that they can tell you if its worth repairing ie differentiate between the F1.8 and the F1.2 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/103083-canon-lens-in-need-of-repair-know-of-anywhere-local/#findComment-988621 Share on other sites More sharing options...

They repaired my Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM when the AF motor broke. I took it in and they estimated that it should be ready in around 3 days, it was ready to collect by the end of the same day. Not cheap, but it cost significantly less than replacing the lens, and I've not had any problems since.
