LZ Fotomehanika
From the slovenian word "Fotomehanik" - a person who fixes cameras.
Get your gear back into shape
We are equipped with the knowledge and tools to ensure your gear won't let you down.
We provide...
...the finest standards we can achieve
We invest in tools, materials and knowledge whenever we can so we can return your gear to you in proper specification. Cameras are precise instruments and we live by that.
... 1 year of warranty
Your camera should be reliable for a long time. We back the quality of our work by providing you with one of the longest warranty periods available in the analog camera repair business.
...a complete overhaul of your camera
We like to disassemble your gear to every last part to ensure everything gets cleaned properly. Every single piece of your camera is responsible for the whole.
We use...
...original factory calibration tools
A camera can only be truly perfect when it's handed to you by its maker. Using the tools of the makers gets us as close to that ideal as possible.
...best materials we can get our hands on
The quality of a finished job is as good as the quality of each step. We chase the final 0.1% by using only the best lubricants and light seals we can source.
...professional testing equipment
Even the eyes of a skilled technician cannot measure how fast a shutter travels or how much light your meter should read. We relegate those tasks to precision testing devices that were made for that purpose only.

We are no longer accepting orders from outside the EU27 area
Posted on 30.10.2025
Due to the service of temporary import being no longer available for small companies in Slovenia, it is economically unviable for customers to send us cameras from outside the EU27 trade zone.
We will happily redirect you to your nearest trusted technician. You can also view our Friends Section.
LZ Fotomehanika no longer services Rolleiflex TLRs and associated cameras
Posted on 30.10.2026
Due to higher demand elsewhere and a general elevation of our working standards in the past few years, we decided to relegate repairs of Rolleiflex cameras to other, better equipped and more knowledgeable technicians.
If you need your Rolleiflex fixed, please contact Tibo Alberny at HostoPhoto.
Collaboration with NorthCam
Posted on 30.10.2025
We like to stay connected with other technicians. Healthy competition is a great way to hold a high bar for quality of work.
Daniel Haanskorf has recently founded NorthCam in the Netherlands and is already diligently working on all sorts of Nikon cameras. Given our ever-increasing workload, we decided all Nikon camera bodies we receive booking for be relegated to NorthCam.
Limitations on F-1 cameras
Posted on 31.7.2025
Due to frequent issues with the curtain brake mechanism and other malfunctions that arise from early production errors, we will no longer be accepting into service Canon F-1 cameras that were made in the year 1971 (first production year). You can identify your camera's year of production by observing the date code stamped in the film cartridge chamber.
Cameras from 1971 have date codes that start with the letter "M".
