Custom camera modifications

I posted this earlier but I guess it never made it to the forum.
At the time, Al Satterwhite had a New York studio. The place that he would
have had his camera modified was probably Marty Forscher's "Professional
Camera Repair". Marty has since retired but they still do custom repair
work there.
37 W. 47th St.
New York, NY 10036

Hope this helps,
Larry
