Nikon D70 repair

[canuck]

I'm not sure whether this is the right place for this, but I wonder if anyone has any personal experience with a repair venue that could take on a Nikon D70?

Thanks to our 4 year old, ours took a fall. The flash now clicks up everytime the shutter is pressed (regardless of light conditions), but never actually flashes (even in conditions where a flash is required).

I think I found a place in Vauxhall that might be capable, but I wanted to inquire whether anyone has any personal recommendations first.

Thanks in advance.

Canuck, I've no experience of them, but you could have a look here they have been mentioned quite a few times on a photography forum.

That looks promising, thank you.

I've just noticed my signature is gone...I'll sort that out soon.

Thanks,

have you tried claiming off your house insurance?

I've used these guys to repair a broken focus bearing on a nikon 70-300 VR lense:

CAMSERVE - camera service and repair centre

Very good service and incredibly reasonable price to replace the whole motor unit, £45 inc vat. I was staying in the next village up from them, took it to them in the afternoon one day, picked it up the next, can't fault them at all.

Thanks for the replies.

I had considered house insurance, but first want to see if the repair costs are less than the deductible on the policy.
