The problem was resolved quickly by KIWI but another problem was found with the camera's board which would have been too expensive to replace. Because of this further fault KIWI did not charge for their service.
Description of Work: SLR Digital camera stopped working due to an SD card reading problem.

The repair to my camera would have been the same as buying a new one so we did not. My husband was impressed and appreciated him taking the time to look at his camera.

Description of Work: Diagnosed my camera problem and compared options, including buying another camera and going to Canon directly. He was very professional and obviously knows his stuff. If I ever have another camera problem, I will go to him. Definitely recommend.

I would use Kiwi Camera Service in the future mainly because of how honest he was when I dealt with him. He could have easily just taken my repair but he offered many options up front so I could make a decision. You do not come across this much anymore.
Description of Work: I called Michael to schedule service. He listened to my entire problem and offered many suggestions and even gave me options on how to work with the vendor to get the camera fixed.

Description of Work: Diagnosed the problem with my Nikon D-80 and found it unsalvageable. I didn't want to buy or learn a new camera at this time, so he found a very reasonable used D-80 for me, and I was able to keep all my current lenses and accessories. He had repaired the camera once before several years ago, and it outlasted the usual life span, so I have been very pleased.

See above. I will be back and send him referrals.
Description of Work: I first was in 2 year ago for a sensor cleaning. then I had an issue with a lens. Michael said that he could fix it but it wasn't worth it. He suggested I sell it on Craiglist as is and but a new one. I did and it was helpful. It was great that he suggested me not spending money with him. Have been in for cleanings since. Two years later, I went in for a cleaning which he did on the house. I had him check my 2 year old lens which was loose and didn't focus well. He said he could fix it but maybe Canon would do it for nothing or for a reasonble price since it is only 2 years old. I did and they took care of it. The fact that Michael gives great service, is highly qualified, but won't take your money unless it is necessary is awesome. I trust this guy and will come back and I recommend him wholeheartedly.

Very well, I was very happy to hear someone say it cannot be repaired, and suggested I buy another more updated version. He did not try to sell me one. He said the camcorder would be too expensive for me to repair, it is 8 yrs old.
Description of Work: Explained in full detail and very honestly about the camcorder repair, Very honest and upfront I will definetly recommend Kiwi to anyone who needs an honest camera repair shop.

He is very knowledgeable, professional and he had prompt turn-around on the repair. I was very satisfied with the repair. He is the one person I would take my photo equipment to in the Southeast.
Description of Work: I had my Hassllblad lens repaired. My lens was skipping images and I was concerned as my lens is from the 1960's. Michael took it apart, explained to me what was wrong with it and had the expertise to put it back together and get it working perfectly again. I am very happy with the experience.
