The Zone VI modified Pentax meter was recently referenced in a couple of posts. I have had one since 1984, but it needs service. Great meter, and obviously owned by serious b/w photographers like those on this list. I was wondering if any members had advice on where to get service for the meter since Zone VI is no longer an entity. Rocky Kneten

Calumet acquired Zone VI Studios and still sells some of the Zone VI equipment. I'd suggest calling Calumet 1-800-CALUMET) and see if they can either repair it or recommend someone who can.

I had my Pentax meter rebuilt at a Pentax repair shop in Colorado. It appeared they routinely replace the entire guts. It would probably be the same for the Zone VI -- possibly without the middle men taking a cut. Paul www.PaulRoark.com

There was a place in LA (hollywood actually) called Quality Light and Metric which serviced and calibrated all types of meters. very cool old guy, not sure if he is still doing it. i have been using Spectra Cine in Burbank for my meters lately, and they could probably let you know the best place for service and calibration. THey used to do it while you wait! --- In DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com, "Brian Ellis" <bellis60@v...> wrote: > >I was wondering if any members had >advice on where to > >get service for the meter since Zone VI >is no longer an entity. > > Calumet acquired Zone VI Studios and still sells some of the Zone VI > equipment.

Try Quality Light Metric 7095 Hollywood Blvd. # 550 Hollywood, California 90028 323/467-2265 fax 323/ 467-2284 email is georgepmilton@... He repaired my old Pentax Spot V a few years ago. He also recalibrated it to take newer batteries. Excellent service, quality work, and very reasonable pricing. I can't say enough about the quality of service I got from this gentleman. chato77006 wrote: > The Zone VI modified Pentax meter was recently referenced in a couple > of posts.
