Camera repairs are by MS Hobbies. Binocular repairs will go to Germany directly. We have spare parts for most Minox 35mm and 8x11 cameras, including VEF Riga. 8x11m repairs are guaranteed six months, 35mm cameras four months. Note that a 35mm camera that has had a faulty unauthorised repair may incur additional costs,
It is always worth getting them serviced whilst there is still a company who can do it. When Leica sold Minox in 2002 we purchased the spare parts and tools from Leica UK. That is why MS Hobbies can do it when many repairers will not go near the cameras.
In time the skills and parts will be lost. so get the cameras fixed as soon as possibl;e.
We find in servicing the cameras that there are many small problems which meant the camera never worked properly anyway whe new. This is particularly prevalent with the later 35's the GT-X, GT-S and GT-E II and the later 8x11 TLX and CLX
With the 35’s the internet has done terrible damage to the cameras with ‘how to repair the camera’ manuals. Every 35 used its own set of circuit boards and parts and we see many times wrong parts being used or a repairer indeed using the wrong part.
We also see home-made repairs being attempted then quickly sold as 'untested' on ebay.
If you repair more than two cameras with us, we will offer a discount.
We also can repair 35mm and 8x11 flashes. Not easy, but possible.
VEF Minox cameras are very delicate after 80 years. We can repair most faults on them, but decades of being bent or stored means that you have to be very careful with them in use. Any cassette is hard to extract from a Riga without opening it up, so use a changing bag to extrct the cassette.
The Minox B has 301 parts. the Minox TLX has 275 parts.. The official repair guides are on microfiche originally, then scanned. The guides are guides, not manuals. they are not easy to understand.

We have taken over MInox Germany's repair work for 8x11mm and 35mm classic Minox cameras. We do not repair digital Minox.
You would think that repairing a Minox camera is a simple matter. 8x11mm repairs are only done by a few repairers in the world = DAG and MS Hobbies. 35mm repairs can be done by repairers only if they have the correct parts for the model.
