Our Canon Vixia G40 video camera power supply board was giving us problems. Staff & Techs were very knowledgeable and helpful. Quick turn around service. They use OEM replacement parts. Can highly recommend.

My A7III EVF and LCD bricked after shooting in the ocean. They replaced both and also fixed my SD card slot #2 when it stopped working. Highly recommend for any future repairs to keep it going.

Probably one of the best "Professional" companies I've worked with in years! And I've been around a few years! LOL! From the initial phone call to the follow up and then the information about repair, TERRIFIC! FREE shipping back to you, regardless if you get something serviced or not! My tripod fell with my Canon 5d MKIV and wasn't working. They determined that it was my off brand battery grip, and not the camera! They would have shipped back to me, no charge, but I went and got their "Full clean and service" done, $89, and back to me in Florida today! Rich Franco richfrancocars.com

I sent my damaged Sony Alpha A7 III and 24 to 105G lens to Video One Repair - both items experience significant damage after a bad drop onto a very hard service.

Throughout the process, communication was excellent pricing was fair and most importantly, both items came back in absolutely perfect operating and cosmetic condition!

Both were returned to the condition they were in before the drop.

After my experience, I can absolutely believe that they have perfect feedback due to outstanding customer service and results.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Just got my A7SIII serviced here. Man was it a breeze to do! These guys are legit! Their professionalism and timely service were unmatched. They were able to work on my camera during the holidays and get my camera back to me so quickly. As a professional that lives off of his gear, this was a great experience! Highly recommend!

My Sony FX3 started vibrating after a shoot and I initially got a quote from Sony's official repair recommendation and it was obnoxiously high. Desperate for a quick solution, I requested quotes from several vendors and Video One Repair was not only the most affordable solution, but also had the BEST customer service representatives! Every person I spoke to knew exactly what they were talking about and exactly how to solve my issue, especially after receiving the camera. Their team were always so informative and inviting to ask any questions I may have. They have gone above and beyond to serve me by making excellent suggestions to resolve my situations.

I recommend Video One Repair to all of my colleagues and I believe they are a great service center for everyone, from hobbyists to industry professionals.

Sent them a Canon camcorder that wouldn't read the SD cards. They diagnosed the problem, provided an estimate, and fixed it promptly. Estimate was spot on. Experienced, thorough, and honest. "Honest" seems to be rare in this business, with lots of mail-in digital camera repair places lowballing their estimates to get their hands on your camera before jacking up the repair cost and taking forever to do the work, if they do it at all. Don't mess with the shysters ... Video One Repair rocks.

When all you see are 5 star reviews, you best pay attention. I can only echo the wonderful things said about Video One Repair. My Sony A7R3 had the worst kind of problem possible - an intermittent one! They studied it and had me send in my lens to pair with it and were unable to find any malfunctions. Rather than try a trial and error approach to it, they suggested I monitor it for any repeated patterns to the problem. They did not charge me any diagnosis fee and they even shipped it back to me at NO COST! Who does that?? Sherman and Sheryl exemplify trust customer service with respectful and a connectedness to their customers. They should run for President!!

I did my due diligence and decided to send my Sony RX-100M6 to Video One to have the cracked LCD screen repaired.

It’s really a concerning decision, pack
up the kinda pricey camera, send it off, who knows what’s on the other end. So reviews are read, best the consumer can do, right?

I followed the tracking, the camera arrived, now waiting for the estimate. I’m not sure what the waiting time should be, patience. Ok, I called.

I spoke with a woman, gave my name, she knew the camera. Nice.

Well, then the issue. The tech examined the camera as I directed found the crack but it was the protective screen that was cracked. WAIT WHAT ??? Ugh. Yeah, the screen I forgot about was cracked. The LCD was like new. We both chuckled at my expense.

I had them clean the camera and send it back. It arrived safe and sound. Yea!

The point is, they’re an honest shop. That’s huge. They could have easily billed me for the repair I asked for, who’d know. Thank you Video One Repair.

I never write reviews because I feel experiences are so subjective, but I can say without hesitation there is nothing subjective about the experience you will have with Video One. Video One is objectively fantastic. Sheryl and Sheldon provide outstanding service from start to finish. Having been burned by send-away camera repair services before, I must admit I was a bit skeptical. I was mistaken to feel this way; communication was fast and detailed, as was the service and return shipping. Pricing was totally fair. They even gave me an obscure part that I couldn't find anywhere else for free! I can't recommend them enough.

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing the exceptional service provided by Video One Repair, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the results. From start to finish, my experience with Video One Repair was nothing short of fantastic.

First and foremost, their team of professionals is incredibly knowledgeable and skilled in the field of electronics and camera repair. I had a beloved camcorder that had been giving me trouble for months, and I was worried it might be beyond repair. However, the experts at Video One Repair quickly assessed the issue and provided me with a clear explanation of the problem and the necessary repairs.

What truly sets Video One Repair apart is their commitment to customer service. From the moment I sent my camera into their shop, I was greeted with a warm and friendly attitude over the phone. They took the time to listen to my concerns and answer all my questions, ensuring I felt completely at ease with the repair process. They also provided me with a detailed estimate of the cost and time frame for the repair, which they adhered to meticulously.

The turnaround time for my camera repair was impressively fast, and although I declined the repair when I received my camera back, it was quick to arrive. I was thrilled with the quality of their work, and it was clear that they had a genuine passion for what they do.

Additionally, their pricing was fair and transparent, which I greatly appreciated. There were no hidden fees or surprises when I received my bill, and the value I received for the service provided was outstanding.

In conclusion, Video One Repair in Newbury Park, CA, is a top-notch repair service that I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone in need of camera or electronics repairs. Their professionalism, expertise, and commitment to customer satisfaction make them stand out in the industry. I am extremely grateful for their excellent work and will definitely turn to them for any future repair needs. Thank you, Video One Repair, for your outstanding service!

I am BLOWN AWAY by this company. After trying to get Sony to honor my warranty and even get a call back for weeks, I gave up and found Video One. I was able to drop my camera off in person, and told them that I might have to go out of town in a few days. I was so surprised when they called me three days later and told me they fixed it and it was ready to go (they didn’t want me to be without my camera for my trip). Everything is working, cleaned and serviced for a fair price, and they offered to help me file an insurance claim since the damage was airline related. I am so happy I went with them and will recommend them to all my videographer and photographer friends.

Sometimes when you read reviews of a business you think: those can't all be real, they must be exaggerating. In this case (spoiler) they are not exaggerating. This is by far the best and most expeditious customer care I've received since in over 25 years in the business. Sheryl is wonderful as is the rest of the team and I will definitely be using Video One for any repairs from here on out as well as recommending to colleagues.

I sent in a Sony handle with a stripped screw and while there was some snafus in shipping, they made it right immediately and then some. Can't recommend this service enough and sorry I didn't find them sooner!

WOW!!!! The best customer service I've ever received. I called Video One Repair last minute on a Saturday morning when my Sony FS5 MII was having issues. I needed the camera ASAP and was worried I'd have to rent a replacement. Video One Repair assured me not to worry, to bring the camera in, and they would give me an assessment that day. The hour-and-a-half drive was worth it; not only did they diagnose the issue, but they had me back up and running the same day. While working with my camera, not only did they walk me through all the issues but essentially gave me what felt like a Master Class on the internal mechanics and tech of my Sony. Sherman even brought out parts from another camera to demonstrate so I could fully understand what was happening with mine. Media One Repair is the company other camera shops call when they have an issue. I can't say enough about how valued they made me feel as a customer. If you shoot SONY and use the workhorses like the FS5, FS7, FS9, and FX3, do yourself a favor and call these guys first when you have an issue, or stuff goes sideways. THANKS, VIDEO ONE REPAIR!

Sherman spent so much time looking at my perfectly functional camera that I was embarrassed!  I thought I had a focusing problem, but it turned out to be  the diopter adjustment!  How embarrassing that I forgot to check that before sending my camera in.  Just know that it was a joy working with a company with such integrity, honesty and kind concern for the customer.  There was no charge for the time Sherman spent trying to figure out MY problem, by the way!  I will be sending my cameras to Video One for repair for any future problems.  May God bless you and Cheryl.

I spoke to Sheryl and I'll just say this..... What an absolute breath of fresh air!!!! I had called and shopped around for repair companies to repair my Sony A7iii.....Sheryl gave me an in depth talk in full detail on what said problem could be, after I explained to her my concerns she actually held on the line for me to send a photo via email while we spoke!!!!!

I was blown away with the customer service and attention to detail she had. I explained to her that I needed the camera back in 2 weeks for a wedding I was shooting and she with no hesitation and complete confidence told me...NOT A PROBLEM!!!!

This conversation was on a Monday, I sent the camera off on a Tuesday and she emailed me, that Friday saying the company had received the camera and would have an estimate for the work by the following Monday! The whole time the camera was in route to Video One we exchange emails on updates with the package. At this point I'm completely blown away by this topnotch service!!!! The weekend comes and go's and liked she promised Sheryl called Monday mid day with awesome news saying the camera could be repaired and she'd have it out the next business day!!!

I have never in my 40 years on this earth had such an amazing customer service encounter until I called Video One Repair and spoke with Sheryl, I will never use anyone else as long as this business doors are open! Video One Repair is definitely a CUT ABOVE THE REST!!!! I would give 10 STARS if I could!!!

Again thank you very much Sheryl!

I called a few repair services since I was on vacation and there were no repair shops nearby. Sherman was the only one who immediately knew what the issue sounded like and helped me figure out why my Sony A7R4 camera wasn’t working and what to do to fix it. Excellent service. I was able to take pictures of the Grand Canyon that day so I’m very grateful! If there is a problem in the future, I know where to call first. Thanks again!

Sheryl was the sweetest & so helpful ! Shipped my Sony A7III for repair due to a shutter assembly malfunction from Houston to Video One repair. My shutter was quickly replaced & shipped back to me the same day ! They also thoroughly cleaned my camera for me. I truly felt my equipment was cared for. The price was very reasonable & I was not charged for a rush repair as other places do charge a fee for that. Definitely recommend !

Needed repair for a Sony FX3. I spoke with Sherman who was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and took a large amount of time to help me understand the possible problems and solutions for the camera as well as suggestions to minimize future issues. I give this company an A+ in customer service and will be sending my gear to them whenever needed.

Best Repair Shop I have ever dealt with!!
In 30+ years of abusing a variety of equipment and having it repaired, I have never found a more honest & helpful group of people.
Details: Sherman spent time discussing my problems with my Sony FX6 over the phone before I sent it in, and assured me he would do a proper diagnostic to determine what the needed repair would be. (I had already received estimates ranging from $300-$1700+ based on talking to other shops.) This was a couple days before Christmas. I got a call from him Dec 29th, asking for more details on the failure I reported, since he was not able to duplicate the symptoms. After a few minutes of discussion, diagnosis of related gear, and a call back, Sherman identified the probable cause as a $15 accessory failure, and not a $$$$ repair. I was astonished, not just at the simple failure leading to all this drama, but more so at the outstanding service and uncompromising ethics of the company.

Without a doubt, they have earned a loyal client!
Thank You Sherman!

Best Regards,
Will

I highly recommend Video One Repair. They provide prompt service and are also very honest. I recently dropped my Sony camera and thought I had cracked the LCD monitor. The estimate that Sherman quoted over the phone was very reasonable, so I sent him the camera. When the camera arrived, Sherman called and told that I had cracked the screen protector, not the actual monitor. The screen protector did its job! He could have very easily told me that they replaced the monitor and charged me, and I never would have known the difference. He offered free return ground shipping, but I wanted to pay extra for overnight. The turnaround time was fast, and I’m back in operation. Sherman even gave me a camera body cap because I was out of town and accidentally left mine at home. If I ever need a repair or need to have my camera cleaned, I will call Video One Repair. Thanks, Sherman.

I was apprehensive to send my a6400 across the country, but did my homework on VOR, emailed with Sherman and Sheryl and sent it off. I got a call once it arrived, got a price for the repair and approved the price. I asked for it to be send back on a specific day (actually a day or 2 after it would’ve been shipped because I wouldn’t have been home to receive it), and when it arrived it was back to being good as new. Not a single complaint in the process & I recommend them 100%. I hope I don’t need to use them again, but if something happens I won’t hesitate to get it out to them for repair.

My Sony A7rii abruptly stopped working and had an error screen to turn the camera off and on. After a little investigation I found the shutter was stuck closed. I was not able to find a local camera repair shop, so I searched online and came across Video One. I filled out the form online to get a rough estimate of the cost of repair. The cost was in line with what others with similar problems had experienced, so I sent my camera off. After receiving it, they quickly identified the problem and made the suggestion that I have a few other things repaired. The representative who called was very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions. The repair window of a week was met. My camera is in far better shape than it was when I sent it. Everything is in perfect working order. I had a great experience and will definitely use Video One again when the needed!

Worried about sending your precious Sony camera to a strip mall in Los Angeles for repair? Fear not! The folks at Video One Repair took good care of me from the moment Sheryl picked up the phone and assured me that they could repair my cracked viewfinder, quoting me the cost even without seeing it, to Sherman calling me to confirm receipt of the camera and their ability to turn it around quickly. The camera was back in my hands, good as new, eight days after I had dropped it off at the post office. Thank you!

The Sony a6500 we use for our church live stream died on us one day out of the blue. No power, no lights, just dead weight. I've never sent any camera in for repairs before. I researched online and found Video One Repair. I sent it in to get evaluated and they basically said the PCB in the camera was fried. They pinpointed the cause to a cheap dummy battery power supply we were using from Amazon. A few days later, they got the camera working again after replacing the necessary parts. It was still cheaper to repair than to buy another used camera. Plus, with the new parts replaced and the cleaning/calibration they performed, it was basically a new camera again. They also recommended to use the official Sony dummy power supply and gave me the correct part number for it since there were a lot of counterfeits online. Its been a month since I got the camera back and have using the Sony power supply and its been working like new! I'm super satisfied with with the whole repair process and experience. Sheryl communicated with me every step of the way. I highly recommend this shop and will go to them for any future repairs.

My battery had failed during an operating system update on my Sony a-6000 camera. It locked up. I could not figure out how to fix it. One noted camera repair company said to send it in and they could fix it for approx. $280. I looked for another way, and found Video One Repair on the internet. I called them, got a person quickly, and explained the situation. I was kindly given a step by step solution; was asked to send it in if that did not work. I followed those directions and my camera came back to life. Had it not, Video One Repair had offered a nominal fee to take care of the problem. Concern, kindness, knowledgeable technical support... These are a few of the attributes of Video One Repair. World class. The best of the best! 5 stars not enough.

Video One Repair has some of the best customer service I've ever experienced. It's very unnerving to send expensive camera equipment off and trust that it'll be in good hands.

I can say with 100% confidence that these folks are extremely knowledgeable and have the utmost expertise in fixing Sony camera products.

They told me exactly what was happening with my camera, charged a fair price, and returned the camera in clean, excellent working order. Their packaging was meticulous to ensure nothing would get damaged in transit.

Thanks so much, I will absolutely be a return customer and recommend these folks to anyone needing camera repair service.

Video One Repair took on the project & successfully completed the repair! After explaining the problem over the phone, my very well kept Canon XH-A1 was shipped, with prayers, from South Florida to California. Just about 2.5 weeks later I was notified that repairs were complete & that the camera was good as new. And I am here to say it was.... It arrived back well packed and from there I began testing operations. To date, it's working correctly, So thank you again for treating me and my equipment with respect. That said, I hope to never have to call again but if I do, at least I now have the utmost confidence in using your services.

Excellent customer service! Everyone that I spoke to over the phone was friendly.

At one of our photoshoots, the shutter of the camera got stuck. We had another shoot coming up and needed the camera fixed ASAP! I sent out the camera on a Monday. Once they received it, they provided a FREE estimate. I informed them that I would needed a quick turn around and I got it back on Thursday! They also provide free ground shipping, if you need it faster you just cover the shipping difference from the ground shipping. I highly recommend them. Their prices are reasonable and they don't try to over charge you. This is our new spot for all of our repairs.

Amazing experience. If you are on the fence, just go ahead and send it in. My Sony A7III completely died on me. When I sent it in, Sheryl gave me a call and explained to me what they had found and why it had died. Unfortunately it was worst case scenario, but she was able to educate me on why it had probably happened in the first place, and how to prevent it again. I was using unregulated (non sony brand) dummy batteries to d-tap into a V-mount, which in turn fried the camera. She wasn't pushy to make a sale or try to upsell me on things I didn't need. She explained how their repair process is more thorough than most. When she gave me the quote, I was quite relieved as the price was very reasonable and I was saving hundreds for not having to buy a brand new camera. It was a free estimate and there was no pressure to proceed if I didn't want to. They repaired and shipped it out promptly and back in my hands in no time. They did a deep clean as well, and it really did look and work brand new again. Another bonus is the warranty they give on their repair! Peace of mind with Video One Repair. As a last resort they also offer to purchase your broken/damaged camera if you don't want to go through with the repair and costs. No one on ebay or craigslist will buy your broken camera! The customer service really is top notch and I think it is what will keep most of us coming back for all of our repair needs. Thanks for a job well done! Your happy customer, Josh

If you want to learn how to run your business the right way, talk to these people! It's the 2nd time I'm fixing (2 different cameras) with them - they get it right the first time! From the initial phone call to get an estimate over a very friendly conversation, through clarity, honesty, lightening fast turnaround time, original parts, decent prices, clear communication, professional shipping back, you name it - they do it to our fullest satisfaction. Since a repair service I can't say I will do business with them again, however, if anything happens to my cameras, they are my to-go-to service. Thank you Video One Repair!

I have a Sony A7Rii that had a sticky shorter, so after speaking on the phone with one of their team I felt confident sending it in for repair. They called and explained what it was they were seeing and also address other suggested fixes (like the menu wheel being tough to turn which was known) and the hot shoe having some corrosion on the terminals. The team was thoughtful and thorough. I cannot suggest their service enough, they really went above and beyond to repair my camera and get it back to me in a timely manner. Plus that warranty on the entire camera put me at ease as well.

The LCD screen on my Sony A7R hadn’t been working for a few months. I put off getting it repaired because I was afraid of the expense. Finally, I found Video One Repair online and decided to try them. One phone call and my Sony was back in working order. No charge! I spoke with Sheryl who was friendly, easy to work with and super knowledgeable. She intuited the problem, walked me through a few steps and we were done. Highly recommended!

My Sony A7iii became a victim of the winds of Hurricane Ida as it swept through the Gulf of Mexico. A sudden gust took the camera and tripod and smashed it unceremoniously to the ground while I was trying to take sunrise pictures.
It was only a few months old and although I have several Sony Alphas in my arsenal, this became my instant favorite (Don't tell the others).
The physical damage was extensive and I had very little belief that it could be repaired to my satisfaction. But I was wrong.
I sent it to Video One and not only was the price fair for all the parts that needed to be replaced, but the work was done quickly and professionally and the camera was returned to me in an "as new" condition.
I took it on a shoot the night after getting it back and it performed wonderfully.
Thank you to Sheryl and the wonderful team at Video One.
I truly hope I never need them again, but if I do, I know these guys will deliver!

Video One Repair's YouTube videos helped me fix my Sony Camera several times, but eventually, it needed service. I was nervous shipping my camera across the country, but their videos helped me trust their expertise and when they answered the phone and spoke to me, I could tell they run a good business. The camera came back fixed and with a warranty for all parts (not just the areas they fixed), and I was very happy with the condition of the camera and this warranty which tells me they are thorough and stand behind their work. I would do business with them again and if I ever need replacement parts, I'm calling them.

After watching a video put together by Sherman on YouTube, I went to the Video One Repair web site and found the support number. I called, and it was actually Sherman who answered. I was having a very odd issue with my Sony and hadn't been able to find answers in my searches. It would have been easy (an far too common these days) for Sherman to sell me sending my camera in for support. Instead, he took the time to listen to the issue I was facing, gave me alternative solutions and told me that I could always send the camera to them if these things didn't work. He even helped point me to the best price on some accessories I needed. First class service and will always be my go-to from here on.

I am SO thrilled to have found Video One Repair. My Sony camera's lens stopped functioning. I called a number of places and very few of them knew how to fix Sony products. Sony suggested I send it to their repair company on the east coast, which would have delayed its return by weeks. Cheryl and Sherman, the owners, were so responsive. They bent over backwards to get my camera back to me quickly. I received it yesterday and it looks like it did when it was brand new. The zoom lens works perfectly. I can't recommend them highly enough and I won't hesitate to send it in again should it need service (hoping it doesn't!)

Thank goodness I found Video one. I have a Sony a72 that took a tumble. Initially sent the camera to the sony authorized repair service. What a nightmare. Took them almost a month to diagnose the problem. came back with a ridiculous estimate. I had them send me back the camera and I called video one for an estimate. what a difference!!! Not only did they give me an immediate estimate but they guaranteed the entire camera for 6 months as apposed to the Sony guys who only would guarantee the replacement part for 90 days and video one was over 100 dollars cheaper. When you call video one you get to speak to one of the owners and they go way beyond the call of duty to make things right. It seems when the sony guys sent me back my camera it was missing the board that controls the gyro. Sherman one of the owners informed me of the missing board and said don't worry we will replace it ,,,NO CHARGE. Wow... I wish I could give these guys 6 stars.

Absolute perfect experience!!! I was stressed about my Sony A7Rii breaking randomly for no apparent reason. I tried to do the research I could and came across a video Sherman put out diagnosing the problem I was facing and what the repair was. I was reluctant to send it in for repairs at first so I called them up and spoke with Sherman. He described what had to be done in order to fix my camera including pricing. Although I'm rather tech savvy, I decided it wasn't a job I should try to do myself. Sherman was so kind and willing to help even if I didn't use their service. It was this interaction that led me to wanting to do business with Video One Repair. After they received my camera, Cheryl who was extremely kind with me as well. I was a little annoying as a client because I was somewhat demanding on the return shipping speed and addresses. Cheryl took this in stride and had presented a back up option if the first didn't work out perfectly. Nonetheless, everything worked out PERFECTLY! I'm actually shocked how great this experience has been from start to finish. These are genuinely great people doing top quality work. They also stand behind their work so that helps your peace of mind. I'm really looking forward to using my camera again (It's so clean too!) I hope I don't have to use them often but any time I have a problem in the future I won't even think twice and bring it to these guys. Thanks so much!!!

WOW! Amazing service!

My Sony A7III was sitting on a tripod when someone knocked it over and the camera landed on the side where the Mini HDMI port had an adapter plugged in. The adapter was immediately busted. It wasn't until a couple days later than I notice the Mini HDMI port wasn't working at all (everything else was working fine).

I called several local repair shops and even tried to get ahold of Sony Pro Support (very difficult to get a timely response). Every local repair shop I called either said they couldn't repair the port or that they would have to replace the entire main board which would have been extremely expensive. I then came across Video One Repair on YouTube where a tech showed how they de-solder the broken port and soldered on a new one. I knew this was something I did not want to take on by myself and only someone who is experienced with soldering camera parts can do this correctly the first time.

I called in to Video One Repair and spoke with Sheryl Bahr, not only was she a wonderful and delightful person, she knew everything I was talking about and told me about the whole repair process with great detail.

Yes the repair cost be around $400 with with shipping, but as a business owner, the guarantee of having my camera fixed and warranted for 6 months is priceless. Hopefully I won't ever have to send another camera in for repair ever but the reality is that things happen and when they do, Im happy to have found a company like Video One Repair.

I'm super glad I found Video One Repair! They quickly fixed the mini HDMI port on my Sony a7S II. I had accidentally damaged it by dropping the camera a few inches onto a table and the cable got hammered into the camera body. I was totally stressed out because I needed the camera fixed quickly for an upcoming live stream and was worried I'd have to spend a couple grand to buy a new camera. Fortunately, Sheryl and Sherman have excellent customer service and totally took care of me. I called them and was told to mail the camera in due to the lockdown. Sherman called me after a damage analysis in which he found out exactly what was damaged and told me how much it would cost to fix the HDMI port. I really appreciated the clear communication about the cost of the repairs and the prompt service. I received my Sony a7S II good as new and the live stream went swimmingly.

Our Church Canon HDV Camcorder XA1, for no apparent reason stopped video recording while the sermon was in progress. I had thought it was the AC Adapter or the coupler. I went off to order a new adapter only to find out the issue was beyond that. I went through google in search of video repair shop and among the list in my hand was Video One Repair. On my first call to them, a guy picked up my call, and I told him my story and that I need to ship the camcorder for repair as soon as possible. To my surprise, he said "wait a minute. Let's troubleshoot it first before shipping and that it might a minor Camcorder settings while in operation." He went all the way to walking me through varied settings before telling me to ship it. They performed an excellent job, and shipped it back to us in a timely manner. I am proud to have a recommendable video repair shop.

I have a Sony FX-1 prosumer video camcorder. While old, it is most definitely worth repairing, because its video quality exceeds many modern 1920x1080 camcorders. The Firewire (1394) port got blown when I connected it to an old computer. Everything else still worked just fine, and I used it for several assignments. However, it got old having to find an HDV deck to transfer the video to the computer. I first sent it to a supposed Sony specialist that I'd used before, located in New Jersey. That was a mistake. I spent $120 in round trip shipping, plus the $50 "evaluation" charge. When it got there, he made no attempt whatsoever to fix it claiming he didn't have the equipment. This despite the fact that I described the problem in much detail. Needless to say I won't ever use "Dr. Sony" again. The reason this New Jersey Sony repair facility wouldn't touch it is that fixing this particular fault requires both equipment and skill that virtually no simple tech repair outfit possesses. However, Video One not only can do this repair, but they describe exactly what they can do in an excellent YouTube video. What really impressed me, however, was the chance to talk directly to the tech who was going to do the work. I have an electrical engineering degree and am able to do many simple electrical repairs. While both the equipment and the skills needed for this repair were beyond what I possess, my engineering background gave me a deep appreciation for the skills and talents that Video One has recruited to their shop. Put quite simply, in my entire sixty-five years, this is the most professional and most trustworthy repair shop I have ever dealt with. My repair was not cheap, but I fully understand why it cost what it did. The camera was returned, in a reasonable amount of time, packed better than any piece of electronics I've ever had repaired, and it looked like new. It is now fully operational and ready for its next assignment. Thank you, Video One! **********, CA

Incredible phone service and they had my part! Huge high-five to Cheryl and her team; in one phone call they found my broken Sony part, confirmed it via email photo, and shipped it out that day. I can't get over how professional and just darn nice they were about everything they did for me. Don't go anywhere else for video repairs, it simply doesn't get better than VideoOneRepair!

Video One is the place to call when you need professional repairs, they listen to your issues and will give you top notch service. My Sony a99 had serious issues, after reading complaints about how others were treated by the manufacture's repair department. I decided to search Google for a good repair company, I read the reviews about Video One Repair company and called them.

I spoke with Sherman, who stated they could repair my camera and a great reasonable price. I sent in my camera and received it in the time it was promised, plus it worked like when I first purchased it.

I highly recommend Video One to anyone having digital camera issues, they will and can help you. Thanks again Sherman, you and Video One are on my speed dial, hopefully, I won't need to send in my camera. But, non the less, thanks for all!

I had a great experience dealing with Video One Repair. After damaging the LCD screen on my Sony A7S II. I spoke to Sherman over the phone. He was knowledgeable, courteous and professional. I sent my camera in that afternoon, it was repaired over the weekend and shipped promptly back to me.
They did a very good job with the repair; I know for a fact that Sony couldn't possibly compete with the speed and efficiency that Video One Repair offers. The price was lower than Sony's estimate and the warranty is twice as long.
I hope to not need their services often, but I'm sure glad to know they're there if I ever need them.

I needed repair work done on my HDR-AX2000 and since there is no local repair solutions I went online. I came across Video One and saw that they had good reviews so I thought I would give them a try. I have not been disappointed. While the first repair was costly(needed a new main board) they did a good job and returned my camera from a non-functional state to like new. I do mean like new, it was thoroughly cleaned and looked better than the day I bought it! (I bought it used.) The story could end there, but it doesn't. They offer a 6 month labor guarantee and after a while I noticed that one of the SD card slots was not working, so I called up Sherman. It had been a bit longer than the 6 months since the first repair and so I thought I was going to have to pay a bunch more in labor to get my camera repaired. Sherman said he would take care of me and go ahead and extend the labor guarantee and give me coverage. All up I just had to pay for shipping one way and for the part, which was priced better than I found online from other parts houses. Bottom line; if I had attempted to repair the camera myself (which I am capable of doing) it would have cost me more than sending it in to the professionals at Video One! Thanks Sherman, and Video One for being super accommodating. With service like this, I will be a customer for life.

Video One is a true class act. The professionalism and personal attention really floored me. Sherman was fantastic, and went the extra mile in answering the questions I had about my repair. The communication was extremely refreshing compared to every other repair experience I've had. My new first stop for equipment parts and repair.

Our company, located in Atlanta, needed a fast turnaround diagnosis and repair on one of our production Sony video cameras. We shopped and spoke with several of the purported "best" repair shops. Needless to say, we were very disappointed in the vague and conflicting information we received to our questions. That is until we met Sherman at Video One Repair. On the very first call Sherman went out of his way to help troubleshoot the problem remotely in hopes of saving us time and money on a repair. When we determined it needed onsite service he was very thorough and clear in spelling out the possible problems and associated costs as well explaining the BEST service warranty we have run into in the business. It was not hard to make a decision at that point. Video One was it! We followed all the shipping and packaging instructions provided and less than two working days after they had the camera it was on it's way back to us. On receipt our team was highly impressed with the repair, cleaning and service on this 6 year old camera. It looked like new! We would highly recommend Sherman and the great team at Video One Repair for any and all your high priority, mission critical repair needs!

Video One Repair are the best by far! I have two Canon GL2 camcorders that I use in my ministry at church. I've been able to send the camcorders from Tennessee to Video One in California. And each time they do an EXCELLENT job at repairing them. They also go above and beyond in sending me some of the small scale stuff like extra screws at no cost. My camcorders have always been in the best of care when I send them. And I always get fast and accurate service in getting the camcorders back. If you need a repair service done on your equipment, Video One Repair are the people you need doing the work for you!

My Sony VX2100 has ben a wonderful camcorder. Recently I was not able to download video from it to my computer for editing. Apple suggested it might be the Firewire port. Got in touch with Video one who responded immediately. Sent them the camera and with a quick turnaround time got it back in perfect working condition and nicely cleaned. They were very attentive to letting me know what was going on. I was completely satisfied.

We have had several Sony professional Camcorders going back to standard def Sony PD150 and PD170 cameras to tape based HD cameras and more recent flash memory based HD Cameras. At one time or another, they have all been back to Video One Repair for service for Tape Transport problems, Headphone Jack malefaction, focus problems, damaged optics from a drop, etc.. They have all come back in great working order with minimal downtime. They are also very knowledgeable about technology trends and after taking the time to discuss a particular product I was considering, i ended up going in a different direction that turned out to be the right direction and saved me a lot of money.

I am a video producer, and owns a number of camcorders, but among them was my favorite, a Canon GL-2 which started to zoom in and out by itself. after checking around in Florida and getting some absurd prices on estimates, I took a chance and sent my baby to Video One after speaking to Sheryl on the phone and gave me a reasonable rough estimate on the cost of repairs.
true to her word, the camera was fixed in record time, and because I needed it urgently they did a rush order including free expedited shipping which allowed me to have my baby back in time.
If I had to sum them up in three words, they would be:
1. HONEST
2. RELIABLE
3. EFFICIENT

FOR THE PRICE AND THE SERVICE, YOU CAN'T GO WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!

1st time I used them, my camera's focus mechanism was screwed up (a Sony feature!). They talked me through how to get through my shoot by tilting camera back and forth. After, I sent it in. Camera cme back better than brand new!
2nd time - I dropped my camcorder and needed it fixed quick. Sent it to them overnight. They had a 2 day turnaround for me.
Quick turnaround.

Thought I'd chime in with all the others about Video One's stellar service.  I have an "older" model Sony VX2000 that had a bad glitching and dropout problem on the recording.  I googled for camcorder repairs and Video One was at the top of the list.  With all the glowing reviews, I was a little skeptical at first, especially with something as temperamental and sensitive as camcorder electronics.  Well, on their website it said the VX2000 happens to be one of their specialties.  I decided to go ahead and send my baby in.  I chatted with Sherman about the camcorder and was reassured at his authority on the subject.  About a week later, I got a call from Sheryl to let me know the camera was fixed and was being shipped to me.  I received the camera, and the tape transport problem had indeed been completely fixed.  However, another entirely different problem with the main power switch arose.  I immediately called Video One and spoke with Sherman (I love that I always promptly get someone in person to speak with over there).  He immediately e-mailed me a prepaid shipping label and told me their amazing 6-month warranty covers the ENTIRE camera, even for a problem entirely different from the initial one.  True to his word, at no additional cost (all shipping at THEIR expense), I got the camcorder back working like brand new - better even, since it had had problems from the day I first bought it.  These people really stand behind their work!  Everything about them reflects their professionalism, from their website to the caring way they pack your camera on return, from their outstanding warranty to the cheerful energy of Sheryl's voice.  But above all, the work on my camcorder was top notch - it now records buttery smooth and purrs like a kitten!

I have a Sony TRV 900 which is a fairly old camera in the Sony pro line. Though I live in the Bay Area, I had not been happy with service I had received locally and found Video One online. After chatting with a tech, I was convinced that they knew the camera well and would make a diagnosis and estimate for repair so I could decide if it was worth fixing. They were very helpful in helping me make that determination and handled the repairs quickly and the camera is working well again. They are also always available for support by phone, and happy to give helpful information and tips.

I've been a Cameraman and Producer for over 20 years, last 10 in the South Florida area. My work puts me around a lot of salt water and after a month on location it finally took out my Z5U's EVF (Electronic View Finder and LCD display.) My original repair option in Florida turned out to be a joke and we all know there are not a lot of options. Found Video One online, took a leap of faith and sent it out to them and Voila...my rig was quickly and correctly diagnosed, repaired and returned, saving me weeks of time and hundreds of dollars. Quite simply put...if you've got any repair needs for gear they service, just stop looking elsewhere and send it there and know it will get done on time and budget. An absolute joy to work with!

I have a Sony VX-2100 Camcorder with some major issues after an unfortunate drop while filming in Australia. Polite and efficient the receptionist at Video One got me over to a technician immediately. I can't tell you how good it feels to chat with someone who can diagnose your camera's issues and speak the language in terms you can understand. As well as learning a diagnosis for my camera I got other great tips on what specific error messages mean when the cam doesnt function properly etc. I left the conversation with a rich knowledge of my cam and what I believe is a correct diagnosis. Previous to contacting Video One, I made the mistake of sending my cam to another repair shop who never even repaired it even after almost $500.00 worth of repairs! You can bet in the future I will be using Video One!

Extremely happy with the customer service. I had seen a listing for a used camcorder part, but it was for a different model from the same brand. I called to check the compatibility and they promptly got back to me after I called during closed hours. They informed me that they also had the part for my camera for the same price. It may be used but appears to be in excellent condition. When I originally tried to buy the product brand new from Sony, the part cost was about $300-350. I bought it from this fine establishment for less than $40, shipped. They also shipped it within an hour of placing the order. I will absolutely be doing more business with them in the future! I highly recommend this dealer. Thanks again to Sheryl (not sure if that's how you spell her name or not, haha).

I am a Video Producer for globaldance.tv doing live webcasting of national dance competitions.  When one of our Sony AX2000 video cameras went down (would not focus) over Halloween weekend we were in a bit of a bind.  We needed to find a place to get it repaired and back to us BEFORE Thanksgiving week as that is when we do our largest and most complicated broadcast of the year, the US Open Swing Dance Championships.

My technical director started making phone calls trying to find a repair shop to which we could entrust our precious camera.  He had a very long conversation with Sherman that left him very impressed.  Jesse, my director said he could not believe the depth of technical knowledge Sherman possessed about the Sony video cameras. We love our two Sony AX2000 cameras, but unfortunately Sony has stopped making this particular model, which concerns us greatly that at some point we may need to replace them.

He questioned Sherman extensively about which other cameras would meet our needs when we need to replace these and after giving Sherman all our technical requirements Sherman assured him that this was actually the best camera to meet our needs.  Jesse couldn't stop talking to me about how knowledgable Sherman was about both Sony and Canon cameras.  He entrusted me to get the malfunctioning camera to and take over communication with Video One Repair.

After speaking with the receptionist and explaining that we were desperate and needed a quick turn around time, I decided to speed up the process by dropping the camera off instead of shipping it to shave a day or two off the process. I dropped the camera off in Newbury Park late on a Wednesday afternoon.  Sherman called me just after noon the next day (Thursday) to tell me that he had taken the camera apart and had good news, he knew exactly what was wrong with it.  It was not actually the focus unit as we thought but the lens that was bad.  Sherman repaired the camera with original Sony parts.   He said they would have the camera repaired and would ship it back to us the next day (Friday).  And they did.  I received the camera on Tuesday by UPS in perfect (almost better than new) condition.

Video One does professional camera repairs quickly and efficiently, but the most unique thing about them (other than an incredibly in depth knowledge of the cameras they repair) is their unique guarantee.  When they make a camera repair, they take the camera apart, check each part to see that it is functioning correctly, then put it back together and guarantee the ENTIRE CAMERA for six months, not just the part they replaced.  Now that is a serious warrantee!

In addition, my boss talked with Sherman and arranged to purchase another Sony AX2000 from him which came with Video One's 6 month guarantee against defects.  We are all EXTREMELY happy with the service that we received from Video One and will ABSOLUTELY be using them in the future if anything happens to one of our other cameras.

If you own a Sony or Canon camera that needs servicing or repair, you absolutely can't go wrong using Video One Repair.  You can visit them online at videoonerepair.com or call them toll free at (888) 283-2228.

Locally it is a major pain. My contact person was Sherman. I got a quote, it was fixed and the price was more than reasonable and to have a complete 6 month warranty not only on the fixed item but on their work for the entire camera... now this is unheard of! The shipping was quick and most painless repair I have ever had..... THIS IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS!!

He had no problem taking time out of his day to help me trouble shoot my cameras problems over the phone, at no charge. At no point in our conversations did I feel like he was trying to get money out of me. When we realized my camera had a serious problem, I decided to send it out to him. The fact that they give you a free quote on the reapirs your camera needs in great. I decided to have him fix my camera and got it back in a timely maner. Now it works as if it were brand new.

I have a Sony NX5u that I was seriously considering getting rid of thinking that it was just on it's way out.

While searching the web for help with some issues the camera was having I came across a response on a forum from one of Video One Repair's technicians with a link to their website.

The woman I spoke to initially knew exactly what was going on with the camera and gave me a way better quote than anyone else (including Sony). They only took a week and now I pretty much have a brand new camera. They fixed the issue and cleaned up the rest of the camera and had it back to me in less than a week.

Video One Repair did a great job repairing and servicing my 11-year old Canon GL-2 camera that had developed a commonly known problem with the zoom control components. The staff are VERY knowledgeable and courteous, and the repair and unit cleanup they did was better than expected. The price was even better than what the Canon factory service center could offer, with more "perks" for the $$. Turn around was quick, yet I could tell they took the proper amount of time needed for the repair and did not rush through it. I'll admit I was nervous sending my camera across country (FL to CA) for the repair, but I would do it again any day if necessary. I highly recommend other's trust Video One Repair with servicing their valuable video equipment as well. Again, GREAT JOB!

Video One Repair is amazing!! Their customer service was great to work with. They were able to give us quote over the phone in and when the camera got it they did a rush job on it for no extra charge. Their technicians know what they are doing and they had all the parts we needed in stock. When they shipped it back UPS delivered our package to the wrong business (a classic case of holiday help). We felt like we weren't getting anywhere with the UPS customer service so we called Video One Repair and they were so helpful! UPS tried to give them the run around as well but they wouldn't take no for an answer. I got a huge smile on my face when Video One Repair called and said I may have told them that you have a wedding tomorrow and that they need to have the camera back to you by tonight.

They worth every penny I spent on their service.Highly recommended!"

I am very pleased with EVERY aspect of working with Video One Repair. I called the 800# to speak with a tech, who was very well spoken and answered my questions without me feeling rushed or like I was wasting his time.

I sent in my VX2100, and a few days later received a call with the estimate. The woman was very polite and explained the cost and what was wrong. I agreed to the repairs, and received the camera back within the promised time frame.

Upon opening the box, the camera even LOOKED brand new (they had cleaned it inside AND out). I tested it right away and the picture looks as clear as the day I bought it.
The receipt clearly had all work and all parts listed for my records.

I would highly recommend Video One Repair for any Sony or Canon user, and will be using them again when my cameras need service in the future.

From the initial phone call asking questions down to my camera arriving safely home, I couldn't be more happy with the kindness, professionalism , and extreme attention to customer satisfaction. I never realized that having something repaired could be a pleasurable experience.

Recently I was confronted with a unique problem with my Sony FX-7. After trying to resolve the problem through my usual repair shop I realized they just didn't have my best interests at heart. After checking the Internet, looking for someone that might be experiencing a similar problem, I was alerted to VIDEO ONE REPAIR'S web page. I opened it up and was impressed with the quality and ease of navigation of the site. I saw that they welcomed calls to talk directly to a technician. I called and talked to Cheryl initially and she helped start my path to satisfaction. Ultimately I was able to begin the process of determining what was wrong with my camera. After numerous calls and consultations with Sherman VIDEO ONE REPAIR was able to insure that the 4 large productions I had quickly looming were able to be done. Besides having my FX-7 diagnosed and repaired, I was also able to purchase a reconditioned Sony FX-1000 at a very reasonable price, that I must say is a beautiful camera. A few things that I was most impressed with was VIDEO ONE REPAIR'S accessibility and how they gave me excellent attention. They kept on top of my situation and consistently returned my calls in a very timely manner. The information and advice they gave me was accurate and right on time. Next, their policy of free diagnose and free return shipping even if you ultimately decide not have your camera fixed is far better than any I've run across to date. The six month warranty on the entire camera for repair or purchase is the best I've encountered, even better then what is offered on a new purchase from any company. Thank you once again VIDEO ONE REPAIR for all your help .I have informed all my fellow videographers of your supreme dedication to your customers.

I am a natural history film maker and two of my Sony camera rigs developed issues at the same time. This happened less than a week before leaving for a two week project. I contacted Video one Repair and explained the situation. Their staff was exceedingly helpful and prompt. Not only did I get to talk with the technician, Sheryl but the repairs were done on time and cost was very reasonable. To say I am happy would be a gross understatement.
The additional 6 month warrantee is a bonus too. I would highly recommend video one repair and will continue to use them instead of the camera manufacturers facility.

I had the misfortune of having a dust devil blow over my tripod here in Arizona and my beloved Sony VX2100 suffered some damage. I was heartbroken with the thoughts of sending it off to some stranger and spent quite a bit of time searching the Internet for possibilities. The more that I read about Video One, the more convinced I was to give them a try.

I shipped my camera along with a note detailing the issues I had found and just a couple of days later a very nice technician by the name of Sheryl called me to make sure she understood my concerns correctly. She said she would call back the next day after she had the opportunity to thoroughly look the camera over.

Just as promised, she called the next day and offered several options for repair and different pricings with no high pressure to sell additional services. What a pleasant way to do business. We discussed these and decided upon the best course of action. A couple of days later, I received an email saying the camera had been shipped via UPS and would arrive soon. I can't say how pleased I was to get the camera back in pristine condition and at a price that was far less than I had initially expected. I have recommended Video One to a couple of my friends who are as fussy as I am and know they will not be disappointed.

"I had a problem with a recently purchased Canon XL1. I had spoke with several on-line AV repair techs and the answer was always the same,"the camera will need to be sent to our facility and you're looking at $300 to $500".I found Video One Repair's website and called them. Almost immediately I was talking to a tech named Sherman. I described to Sherman what the previous techs had diagnosed on my XL1. The Video One tech asked me a series of questions as to what my camera was doing. Sherman then proceeded to tell me over the phone what my problem was and the incredibly simple procedure for "fixing it". Within 10 minutes I went from a having a totally non-functioning paper-weight to a fully operable camera again. So simple, (so obvious in retrospect anyway) It was a jaw-dropping moment for me. The tech could have easily said,"the camera will need to come our facility..." What I got instead(which was totally unexpected)was a professional, EXTREMELY knowledgeable,courteous, patient tech who took the time to listen to my problem and then proceeded to solve my problem without any concern as to whether the company got it's money first. The outcome could have been so different.
I was elated. I asked Sherman what I owed and he said "no charge". Twice in one day I was dumbfounded. Sherman then added, before I hung up, " if you have any questions or concerns over the operation of your camera, please don't hesitate to call us".
Thank you Sherman, and thank you Video One Repair for being the company you are. From this day forward I will not consider sending my AV equipment to ANYONE other than Video One Repair.

Hello my name is Gary. I'm the owner of Gary West productions. We do a lot of photography and videography for weddings and special events. We have been using VideoOneRepair.com for our camcorder repairs for the last five years. They have always been more than fair and have always gotten our equipment back to us very quickly.

I felt compelled to write a quick review due to a recent situation that I was in.

I'm typically very busy in the summer and towards the end of my last job I started having problems with one of my Sony camcorders. My problem was that I had a job the following week and needed to use this camera for that job. I took it to Video One Repair and received an estimate very quickly. When I approved the estimate I had explained that I needed the camera back for the weekend and Sherman said that shouldn't be a problem. The next day to my surprise I received a call saying my camcorder had been completed.

I am very happy with all aspects of doing business with Videoonerepair.com. They have far exceeded all my expectations.

Video One Repair, were very knowledgeable over the phone, ready to troubleshoot with you, and did not beat around the bush, as what the cost would or would not be. They are honest and accurate, and know their stuff. I live in Canada, and shipped to them in the states, because of their help and knowledge. The shipping and repair back to me, was speedy and now the camera is like new. Not only did I like their work, I like that they warranty all parts of camera, for a full 6 months after they have repaired it. They not only fix the problem but check all of the camera to make sure it is in tip top shape. THanks They are A++++++ in my eyes.

I was pleased with the whole process (I wasn't too happy about having to do a repair in the first place, but that wasn't their fault).

I've had two camcorders repaired through Video One, and have been very happy with both times. Video One is not the cheapest service around, but they are more than worth the money. They fix it right, fix it quickly, and are extremely attentive to getting your camcorder back to you in time. They took extra effort when I was shooting in Fiji to get the camcorder back to me, and recently rushed a repair to get a camcorder done for a trip to Mexico.

The six-month warranty is a delightful extra. When my first camcorder needed repair again for a problem that developed independently of Video One's repair, they fixed it for free under the warranty.

After wasting considerable time and money on local repair services that took forever and didn't fix the problems, I happily go back to Video One whenever I need repair, and also happily recommend them.

I recently chose Video One Repair to fix / clean the headers on my Canon GL2 DV camera. They answered all my questions thoroughly and made shipping easy as could be. Their turn around time was super fast. I got the camera back within a weeks time at a reasonable price! And they offer a 6 month warranty on all their work and parts so this was a no brainer. The camera itself came back looking like new and works flawlessly. Very good people and pleasant to work with. Will use them again for sure if I ever need service. Thanks VOR!

We were having some issues with the touch screen on our Sony HDV camera which I guess is a common issue, called around a couple of places no one would even give me a ballpark estimate without sending it out first, even when I told them what the issue was. I called Video One told them my issue she said if that is the only thing wrong with it here is your estimate but they would look it over once they received it. So I did some more research on the company and people liked their work, so instead of sending all over the US for prices I had no clue on what they were going to come back with, we decided to go with Video One. They received the camera called me back with estimate she had quoted me over the phone, fixed it and with in a couple of days we had our camera back with the touch screen working as new. Very nice company to work with their customer service was Topnotch!

If you have a video camera, you need to keep Video One Repair's number handy! I normally don't take the time to write something like this, but when you get service like Video One Repair gives, it's a pleasure.

Having an older pro-sumer video camera, parts were next to impossible to find and when I did, other shops quoted 20 X the original cost for the part.

At Video One Repair, it was a completely different story. They took my phone number, search and found the part, called me within 15 minutes and was ready to ship! Sheryl charged me $15 for the needed part (other shops quoted $200). I found out later Sheryl is the co-owner with her husband. Video One Repair is the kind of place you wish all your purchases came from. They care. Their main concern is to insure good service. More than fair pricing.

Let me sum up... Video One Repair is the best and only group I will call for service or parts. They are honest and fair. Video One Repair is the professionals' choice.

I can't believe that there are still people who love Canon and Sony camcorders as much as I do and, better yet, can repair them! I have used Video One on different occasions for two different camcorders and was very impressed with their customer service and taking the time to explain
what needed to be done, and then doing it. What's also amazing is their 6 month guarantee (if something else that hasn't been diagnosed on your camera goes wrong, they will fix it for free!) These people are golden -- and make me very grateful that I'm not an extinct dinosaur in an HD world(I have an HD camera, too, but actually prefer my Canon XL1-s for richness of color and texture.)

Video One Repair did a great job repairing and servicing my 11-year old Canon GL-2 camera that had developed a commonly known problem with the zoom control components. The staff are VERY knowledgeable and courteous, and the repair and unit cleanup they did was better than expected. The price was even better than what the Canon factory service center could offer, with more "perks" for the $$. Turn around was quick, yet I could tell they took the proper amount of time needed for the repair and did not rush through it. I'll admit I was nervous sending my camera across country (FL to CA) for the repair, but I would do it again any day if necessary. I highly recommend other's trust Video One Repair with servicing their valuable video equipment as well. Again, GREAT JOB!

When I say they are first class I mean it. From the minute I called them I new this was the place. I described the camera issue and they spent the time to explain what was causing my problems. He gave me a estimate of a high and low on the cost, and an approximate turn around time. I shipped it to them they acknowledge that it had arrive. Within a day I received an update and complete run down on what was the repairs where going to take place. The camera arrived back ahead of schedule and the bill was less then quoted. I also told him I enclosed 2 Sennheiser mics that had broken, he said he could take a look at them but didn't have the service manuals. He replaced a broken switch on them for free and he even paid the return shipping. I also received a follow up phone call to make sure everything was working perfect. I own Swensen Wedding Services of MI est 1982 I have learned to shop for repairs carefully, most other companies say ship the camera and they will call you with an estimate and once they got it your stuck with them.

Video One is not just a company that fixes my gear. I consider them as an extension of my own firm. My out-of-house technical department. And no, I’m not being paid for this review. As a fan of the venerable television sitcom Sienfeld, coupled with my almost three decades in broadcast television it’s always very comforting when “you have a guy.” Not sure what the episode was, but Sienfeld always “had a guy.” That’s how I feel about Video One. Most of my interaction though is with the owner Sheryl, who is very much a woman, but to me, she’s is fondly my video guy. What makes Video One standout above the crowd of many companies these days is the fact that they listen and know what’s needed as it relates to my own situation. The firm’s recommendation of what I shouldn’t do and where I shouldn’t invest my resources have been as helpful as the actual maintenance, repair and rebuilding they’ve done for me. They are responsive and realize my livelihood depends on my cameras recording in the field, and they move quickly to evaluate, repair and return the items presented before them. So, it’s not just about technical prowess, although that’s a big portion of why they resonate with me, it has to do with attitude and a willingness to get the job done. Very refreshing in a day and age where almost everything is becoming point, click and ship.

I found Video One Repair online after I was bounced around by various Sony sites and phone numbers only to eventually discover Sony is not a whit interested in servicing the GD HD700, because it is a WALKMAN... can you believe it?! A Walkman brings up images of using it, strapped to my neck, while doing stunts at a skateboard park. I always had thought of it as a professional unit. I certainly use it that way.

The Video One website made a POINT that they serviced these very popular portable recorders. I called the number, and Sheryl answered. What a refreshing, homey experience. She was knowledgeable of course, but still had that sort of "excuse me, while I dry my hands.. I was doing dishes in the break room" sort of genuineness.

Sheryl set me up with how to proceed, and I sent in the unit which needed the cassette eject mechanism fixed and the output sockets tightened up after having used the unit on locations nearly daily for probably 9 years. I got a call from Sheryl that they'd received it and checked it out, and yes, I needed a couple of boards replaced to do both the mechanism and the sockets. She asked "How do you want to proceed?" and I said do both. The 700 is such a good unit, it's worth it to service it well.

When the unit came back, I went silent until I tested it in the field for a couple months, but now I can write this review confidently. All repairs are holding, and the unit came back all spruced up, looking nearly new. So there you have it. You will be well served by Video One.

This is the second time I have had Video One Repair work on one of my camcorders. The first time was for a repair of a dead Sony TRV530. I burned out the internal power supply while using the camera. The Sony uses the internal power supply to charge the battery and the manual says that you can operate the camera and charge the battery at the same time, I found out that is not completely true. I had operated the camera that way with no problem, the battery was Sony's 5.0wh which is good for about one hour. I mover up to a Rayovac 17.28wh battery and was having no problems until I decided to record a youth theater production that was two hours long. About halfway through the production the camera shut down. At the time I only had one camcorder and only one week to get the camera repaired so I could record the last show. After checking online Video One Repair sounded like the place to go for the repair. I sent the camera overnight before I even talked to anyone. Not only did they do a fine repair and returned the camera in time but they did a professorial cleaning as well. That was five years ago, so when my Cannon GL2 did not record colors the way that I thought it should I knew that there was only one place to sent my camera. This time I talked to Sherman about the problem before I sent the camera in and he was not sure that he would locate the problem but would try. After a great deal of testing Sherman found the problem and now the camcorder is working as if it is new and looks like it too. When you have a company that can repair your problems and keep your equipment in such great working condition it makes you want to only buy camcorders that they work on. Also the fact that you can talk to someone that knows what they are talking about in this tech crazy world is really refreshing. I also feel that their cost of repair is more than reasonable when you know they will stand behind their repair and do it right the first time!

If you need your camera repaired, these are the people you want working on it. They are the best. Their prices are very reasonable, their work is excellent, the turn around time is quick, and lastly they are friendly/helpful and they follow through to make sure your camera was repaired to your satisfaction. I have an older Sony camera (PS170) that was dropped and the CCD was broken. I had my camera back early the following week (5 business days) and couldn't be more pleased with the workmanship.

It is my pleasure to write this review on behalf of Video One Repair of Newberry Park, California. I own a Canon GL2 camera, which I purchased in 2002. I did not know about Video One Repair until Cannon told me what the cost to repair my camera was in excess of what the camera is worth today. I ‘Googled’ ‘Canon GL2 camera repairs,’ and came across Video One Repair’s web site.

I contacted them and spoke with Sheryl. I explained the problem with the camera and she had a very good sense of what the issue was. She gave me an estimate. I immediately packed and shipped out the camera to them. VOR received it in less than a week.

VOR diagnosed the issue and immediately contacted me and explained the issue and costs. What would have cost me in excess of $1,000.00 at Canon, cost me far less at Video One Repair.

In my initial phone call, I had spoken with Sheryl. She is a very bright, responsible person who is serious about her work. She is one of the very few individuals known to me that continually adds intellectual rigor in explaining to me not only the ‘how, why’s and when,’ but also to the ‘when and what I can expect.’ Sheryl had a legitimate concern for the quality and excellence in customer service and in answering my questions. She really made me feel at ease.

In addition, in my opinion and experience, having dealt with so many other businesses, Sheryl and Video One Repair has shown a superior ability to raise issues in their own area of expertise in the most effective manner for me, as viewed from the outstanding quality of repair work they performed on my 14 year old Canon GL2. This review that I write for which you are reading right now, is my testimony for an exceptional job beyond being well done. It is superb!

Sheryl has a very pleasant demeanor, and a very deep concern for the welfare of her customers. Her nurturing and humane attitude towards dealing with her fellow human being is evident by the way she related to me as a new customer.

Altogether, I regard Sheryl as a superior businesswoman and Video One Repair a superior business to work with. I highly recommend Video One Repair for all your camera repair needs. Thank you Sheryl and Video One Repair!

1st time I used them, my camera's focus mechanism was screwed up (a Sony feature!). They talked me through how to get through my shoot by tilting camera back and forth. After, I sent it in. Camera cme back better than brand new!
2nd time - I dropped my camcorder and needed it fixed quick. Sent it to them overnight. They had a 2 day turnaround for me. Quick turnaround. Recommend highly!

My name is Gregory Daniels. I am the owner of a DCRVX2OOO video camcorder. After years of quality service with the video camera, I begin to experience audio dropouts. I sent the video camera to another company to be repaired, but the experience was an unpleasant one. They kept my video camera for several weeks and it cost me several hundreds of dollars for the repair. After receiving the camera back from them, I was terribly disappointed with the lack of performance of it. The video camera still had the audio dropouts. I returned the video camera back to the company to be fixed again. They kept the camera for over a month and returned it back to me with the same problem. I even received it back without any type of paperwork to show what their discovery was after they claimed to have examined it a second time. With much frustration, I decided to look for another company to repair my video camera, and I remember seeing an advertisement online for Video One Repair. I read several excellent reviews and watched videos on their service and decided to give them a call. I spoke with Cheryl, a very nice, professional, and knowledgeable lady, who knows the ins and outs of my particular video camera. Her husband, Sherman, was just as nice as well. He insured me that I could send my video camera to them for repair and that it would be returned and functioning as good as new. They told me when my video camera would be shipped back to me and it was sent out on time just as they said. I received the video camera back in less than 2 weeks after I initially sent it to them and I could not be happier with the performance. Not only did they repair the audio dropouts, but they disassembled the entire video camera to ensure that everything was functioning and working properly. Video One Repair did an amazing job! I would be happy to refer them to anyone in need of video camera repair service. Their work was EXCEPTIONAL!!! (5 STARS INDEED!!!!)
Thank you Video One Repair!!!

On May 15th 2016, I was in the process of setting up my Sony HDR AX-2000 on top of a press box where I was approximately 20 fee above the ground to capture video of my Sons LAX Game. About 5 min prior t the game, a hail and wind storm came through and swept the camera, along with the tripod from the top landing 20 feet below me. Needless to say, I was P*****.

I had contacted several repair shops as well as the very reputable company that I purchased it from. The repair shops, that were in driving distance, wanted well over $1,200.00 to fix the problem. And the store where I purchased it, wanted nothing more then to sell me another camera.

I did my research and came across VIDEO ONE REPAIR, watched their You Tube channel where I saw a man by the name of Sherman demonstrating how to do a work around on a error code. I contacted VIDEO ONE REPAIR, not thinking that I would actually get to speak to Sherman. However, when I spoke to the young lady that answered the phone, she asked me to hold on and she would get one of the Tech's. Low and behold, it was Sherman.

He was one of the nicest guys I ever spoke to. He did NOT try and rush me off the phone, he listened to my story and I had asked him if it was able to be fixed, and is it worth fixing. Well to make a already long story short, he told me to send it to him, he will look it all over and let me know. He stated that it would most likely be able to be fixed, but did not want to leave me with any false information.

I finally had the chance to send it to him where he received it on May 25th and within a day of them receiving it, he called me and told me that it could be fixed. That the total lens assembly would need to be replaced and gave me the total of the repair. I was SURPRISED how much lower the price was. So then i asked him to replace the mic holder as well, which was NOT figured into the price that every other repair shop quoted me. He proceeded to tell me that not only would they fix the camera but that the whole camera would be fully serviced and cleaned to make sure that the camera worked like it did when I purchased it. Also that the whole camera would be FULLY warrantied for six months, not just the part they fixed. That if anything went wrong with the camera that had nothing to do with the part replaced, they would take care of it.

I received a call from Sherman on 6/3, which I was not available to take his call, so I called him back Monday 6/6. He told me it was finished and it would be shipped out to me. I just received it back today, 3 days after speaking to him and I am 1000% happy. The total price of the repair with shipping and handling was $1,048.05, I could not believe how much cheaper it was to send it from PA to CA to have the camera repaired. If anyone is looking for a GREAT, REPUTABLE, HONEST company to repair your camera, VIDEO ONE REPAIR, is it. You will NOT be disappointed!!!!!!!!

The Sony camera we use to Livestream our events broke at the tripod mount from constant use. I found this site online and was a little concerned that they would not be able to fix it. After messaging with them they told me the video camera was fully repairable. After sending it to them having it fixed and sent back, we can say that we will definitely use them again! The camera they sent back was as good as new!

I sent them my camera and before the end of the week I had my Sony DSR PD-170 back better than new! They also told me about how to prevent the problem I sent it in for.

Over the top service over Christmas Holiday "I was in need of a TIMELY lens repair on my Sony NX5U. Only 6 places IN USA could do the repair except Sony. Can't send camera to Sony if you need it in this lifetime. Been a professional videographer since 1987. I KNOW. My local Sony authorized repair guy could NOT do it. Overnighted to Video One on 12/22/15. HAD TO have back for shoot IN FLORIDA 12/28. Delivery DELAYED due to holiday. SHERYL went to P.O. to INTERCEPT because P.O. was to busy to deliver. They completed repair ON CHRISTMAS EVE and overnighted to me. P.O could not get it to me on Sat. 12/26...too busy. I went in back door of P.O. on SUNDAY 12/27 and got camera. No one I know of would have gone to this effort to get me a HALF DAY TURNAROUND. Highly Recommend !!!!

I have a Sony camera that decided to trap a friend's tape inside and then lock up the motor so it wouldn't even turn on. I was on a tight turnaround, so I called Video One, spoke to Sheryl, and immediately sent the camera that afternoon. The next day she called me back, explained what they had found and offered a quote for repair. I had the camera back, good as new, the following day - and the tape was saved too.

Nobody ever likes to spend money to repair something, but at least when you have to, it's nice to know it's in good hands and that they really do care about making sure you get what you paid for.

We had a main board go bad on a Sony camcorder and felt it worthwhile to repair rather than replace. Video One Repair staff were pleasant and professional throughout each step from our initial call, quote, and our receipt of the repaired camera. Though we were not in a rush I appreciated their willingness to expedite if required. We will absolutely use them again with any camera issues in the future, saving money versus replacement and knowing that our well-maintained equipment can continue to be used if something goes wrong.

Video One Repair did me right. They fixed several thorny issues (zoom noise in the audio track, tape transport racket, and a faulty I/O board). When I got it back, my Canon XH-A1 felt like new again. I worked with Sherman, who was tenacious and has excellent diagnostic skills. Throughout the repair process, the frequency and the level of detail of his communication with me was above and beyond my expectations. He also advised me on things outside of the repair and even located an accessory that I've been trying to find for two years. You can trust your gear to these guys. They know video.

Once again I chose Video One to repair my Cannon XL H1. And once again they were by far the best choice to do the repair. Fist of all, they are the most friendly people you will ever deal with. They tried to solve my problem over the phone in hopes that it was something simple. Unfortunately for me that wasn't the case. I shipped the camera to them and they did a very professional job of bringing my camera back to life. Talking with them on the phone is like talking to someone you've known forever. I have used Video One in the past for other repairs with the same great results. Their six month warranty on everything speaks volumes of their quality work. They not only repair the problem, but they go through the entire camera ensuring no hidden problems lurking in the background. I highly recommend these folks. You can't go wrong!

The LCD screen went very dim on my Sony HDR-SR11 and I tried to get it repaired on this side of the states and didn't like the responses that I got from the repair places, I did a google search which took me to "youtube" and I saw the video with "videoonerepair" and that was all that I needed, I called, told them what type of camera that I have and the problem that I was having with it and after talking to one of the camera repair staff I shipped it off one March 16, 2015 and got it back on March 20, 2015 and didn't hesitate to use it once I got it back to the house. I couldn't be more happier that I sent my camera to them, the fact that they called me back after checking out the camera to let me know what was going on made me feel real comfortable with them, 2 thumbs up and 10 stars..

When our Sony HVR-Z1U needed repair we were agitated at the thought of finding a repair center... We anticipated the repair cost to be outrageous, not to mention possible bench fees to even look at the camera. All this with mounted frustration of not even understanding why this camera was acting strange had us not knowing where to turn. Fellow videographers suggested we cut our losses and move on...

Deciding to at least explore our options, we ran across VideoOneRepair.com after a Google search. Going out on a limb, expecting the worst, we called... To our surprise we were met with very personable representative--not to mention great knowledge of our specific product. Immediately, there was a calming sense of trust from the conversation.

With a no-cost analysis of the problem being offered, we sent the camera to VideoOneRepair.com. Within a week, including transit time, we had an expert diagnosis. Once again, in speaking with a different representative, we experienced the same knowledge and sense of trust. It became very apparent, we were dealing with a professional and experienced operation.

In the end, the repair cost was reasonable, though it didn't make sense to invest in repairing an older Sony technology. There is no doubt my experience and repair would have continued to be satisfactory, especially with the warranty offered.

It's hard to know who to trust from a Google search, though we certainly found the place to turn for expert help.

I own a Sony FX1 Camera. I had accidentally dropped the camera breaking the hinge of my LCD screen which quite working. I was sicken as it happen.I didn't know from that point on who to go to about getting it repaired. I did do a lot of searching on fixing professional cameras such as the Sony FX1,I came across Video One Repair which I was very skeptical at first and I was looking at their website and was becoming more familiar and trusting to send my camera out to them. Before I had sent out my camera I called Video One Repair to see if they were legit and how they handle customer calls...I was sold ! They were the friendliest and very understanding and explain all the issues of my camera as what they would have to do to fix it at a affordable rate.When the camera came back all looked great..EXCEPT..when I connected my camera to my computer, my computer could not communicate with my camera?It had worked before it had been repaired. I called them and explain what had happen ( I was a bit upset at first, thinking I have to pay more than I wanted to to get it fix) however, they told me they would look it and see why it would do that, IF, I had to pay to get it fix, they would work something out for me. ( which I hope I did not have to) Later they called me to tell me it was a Sony error in the manufacture and they had to replace the circuit in the camera and send it back to Sony and there will be NO charge for me ! I was excited to hear the great news. They paid for sending the camera back to them and back to me which was also a bonus. I highly recommend Video One Repair for their expertise and outstanding customer service ! Thank You again for everything you have done. So nice to see my camera back to normal again !

ups just delivered the camera. from how it was packaged, i can tell that video one repair treats the gear like a baby (if i may use the expression). it was so well packed.

i can tell they even cleaned the outside of the camera. remember the fingerprints and all the other stuff that gets rubbed on on the camera body from long usage? all gone. the camera body (outsides) had a nice shine.

shoot only about a minute of tape and the result was perfect. the recorded video even appeared clearer. but i don't know...my eyes may be getting old...just kidding...the recorded footage really came out excellent. no, i haven't put the camera through its rigorous paces yet like night shooting, available light shooting, action stuff, etc. with the 6 month warranty backed by video one repair, i have confidence the camera will perform. above all, i have peace of mind that the next shoot will come out good.

one thing i tested: removed the battery from the camera. when i put the battery back on, the camera settings stayed on. before the repair, whenever i replaced the battery, the camera would prompt me to "set the clock" - meaning the settings were "erased". i had earlier read on the manual and the manual stated to keep the camera plugged into the electrical power supply for at least 24 hours. it worked a while; but then it would not work anymore.

the manual never mentioned anything about an internal clock. video one repair told me about it.

oh, one final thing: when video one repair contacted me re work needing to be done, they also asked me when i would need the camera. i give them real high marks for thinking about the customer's needs.

thank you video one repair...& i hope my comment is not too long... for reader's comfort out there. thanks again...

oh, by the way, am just an amateur videographer (without any sort of training at all) transitioning from 35mm (remember the canon ae1?) to video. while i have owned camcorders (remember the panasonic vhs in the mid80s?) for a while, i have never really graduated from a point and shoot to.

I've always dealt with Sony repair in the past, but that process took up to three or four weeks to get my cameras back.
Video One expedited the process by having the repairs done within 24 hours after receiving the cameras and at no additional charge.
It's also a nice change to actually speak with someone who knows what there talking about and is willing to spend some time with you on the phone.

OMG!!! Where do I even start? I guess with the truth. Truthfully, I couldn't find a place I trusted to take good care of my camera and repair it. I searched the internet, made phone calls, did my research and in my log of references- VideoOne- was one amongst many. Ok, first of all, these guys were waaaay to nice. Customer services skills were over the top, which really heightened my suspicions because all my other inquiries (at other sites) were very matter of fact, or cut short. VideoOne was very concerned, very inquisitive to my issues, tried to trouble-shoot some potential problems to "prevent me" from having to send it in, etc. These guys were WAAAAY to good. So I checked the reviews from other customers, just to see if this was really happening. I read practically all the reviews. AGAIN, my suspicions were at their peak now. Ok, that's it- they wrote their own reviews!! They had to have. It was just too good to be true. Nobody practices at the level of expertise these folks were conveying over the phone, the internet, and now in customer reviews. I kept calling and checking other places closer but I kept finding myself coming back to those same nice voices I spoke to over the phone- Sherman and Sheryl. Ok- that's it... I would just have to take the risk. To my dismay, not only did they do what they said they would do, their prices were reasonable, the cleaned my camera up, I got a 6 month warrantee, and my camera back within the week- CLEAN. The only reason I left so much information about myself is so others, who may be looking for camera repair and just as suspicious as I was, will see my remarks and note- I'm way on the east coast. I do not work at VideoOneRepair. And, I am not a partner or endorser with their services. Would I recommend them? HIGHLY. Am I a life-long customer- ABSOLUTELY. BTW: Their estimate was my charge- and shipping came back free. I am still WoW'ed!

A Thrilling tale, that started years ago when a Young Man decided to try his hand as a freelance wedding photographer. So he purchased two Sony HDR-FX1 video cameras and ton of other gear only to lose interest, and store the whole kit for a number of years.

Flash forward to present when an unscrupulous fellow approaches the young man's father at their family garage sale and makes an outrageously low ball offer on the whole kit of $200. The unscrupulous buyer can not escape Karma however and the first time he goes to use the cameras he finds that, due to long storage, they are broken and fail unexpectedly at different times in the test shoot.

The heroine (Sheryl of Video One Repair) makes her appearance and saves the day! She explains that Video One will give the unscrupulous character a free estimate on repair and offering free return shipping if the repair is too much for our skinflint buyer. With nothing to lose the unscrupulous buyer ships the cameras off to Video One.

The tension builds when Sheryl calls the buyer to inform him that the repairs will be quite expensive more in fact than the buyer can hope to afford. All seem lost, Karma seems to have caught up with the unscrupulous buyer but not to fear, Sheryl still has a happy ending in mind for this story.

First being a honest repair person Sheryl tells the buyer that these cameras are actually a lot more valuable than he knows. He thought they were worth about $550 if they were working. But no, they are worth $1500 each if they are working well. Then she offered to buy one of the broken cameras for enough to more than cover the cost of the second camera.

So the cash strapped buyer gets back a $1500 dollar camera in perfect working order, and a bit of cash as well and lives happily ever after! There is just no justice in the world. Fade to black. Roll credits.

I gave a 5 because that's all I could give. I contacted Video One Repair because my Sony HXR-NX5U camera had a buffer error, which "probably" needed the board replaced. After I sent it in, Sherman could not duplicate the problem. That's exactly what you want to hear!! Then he told me he would send the unit back, no charge if I wanted... Who does that?? I got the board replaced, the whole camera even came with a 6 month warranty.

When I was looking for a repair facility, Video One Repair was the only place that would give me a ballpark estimate. All the others would just quote an hourly rate.

If you have a camera that need repair, Send it the Video One Repair.

After not using my Canon XL1S camcorder for several years, I attempted to set it up for use. The tape would not run and I anticipated a long delay and expensive repair job. I requested an estimate from Video One Repair, explaining the problem. The very same day Sheryl telephoned me, and guided me through solving the problem. Not only did I not have to send my camcorder away for a long period of time, she did not charge me for her help and service. This is unheard of with commercial establishments these days.
I cannot express how grateful I am for her kindness (and professional expertise). Without any hesitation, I would recommend Video One Repair to anyone looking for honest and competent professional camcorder repair service.

I frequently read the reviews about a company before I do business with them, but all too often I am left wondering if real people wrote them or the company itself; so I was really reluctant to send my valuable equipment so far away to be repaired, but was really interested in the company, because their advertisement said that they only work on Sony Cameras.

I eventually overcame my fears and because I had a wedding coming up, I decided to take the chance.

I am extremely happy with the work done on my Sony FX1, my camera was returned to me in, like new condition,and seems to be working better than when I first bought it.

Thanks Sherman,you did a great job and will definitely recommend you and your company.

I can only use the word REMARKABLE to describe this company. My camera's recording ability was shot. I found Video One Repair online and called and talked to a tech immediately. I told them the problem I had with the camera and they told me what the problem most likely was AND an ACCURATE estimate of repair right from the start. I am in Florida so I didn't really want to send my expensive camera all the way to California, but after calling a couple other places and receiving sketchy options, $90 just to look at it and no warranty on repairs past 30 days I had no other choice. Boy am I glad I went with Video One. Excellent customer service, knowledgable staff, quick turn around, professional repair. Oh and I got my camera back in the same bubble wrap and box I sent it in, now that was awesome. I have a couple other cameras and Video One will be my company if anything ever happens to them.

I’m a small business owner, like the folks at Video One Repair, and they’ve given me the kind of service, that I try to provide to my clients.

In 2011, I had a camcorder go down that was needed for a shoot in 3 days.

I found Video One Repair on the net, and talked to Sheryl, one of the owners. And in that conversation, I concluded that they had the resources available to repair, and get my camera back to me in time for the shoot, and they did!!

This is May of 2013, and I sent 2 other camcorders to them for repair.

I have a sports video business for polo players and during my seasonal months use my Canon XH A1 that six days a week, 2 - 4 hrs a day. that is a lot of video footage at the end of 6 months.
I have sent my camera twice (two different years) to Video One for repair. They talk to you, are timely, follow-up and take care of business. Love that they are willing to take the time to listen and offer solutions. Not to mention that their repair work has been spot on. It's never fun to send your high end equipment out for repair, but when using Video One I feel as if my trust is not mis-placed.

Wow, I had a question on a repair or my FX1, she told me it was not worth the money with the issue I am having and explained in great detail what was happening with my camera. Very happy with the service A++++. She did not try to sell me on anything and gave the best advice on my issue. Thanks you Video One

Great customer relations. Clear instructions on how and where to ship. Quick to diagnose problem. We are a repair facility here and often times rely upon outside repair facilities to provide the quality service that we give when we have excessive service to render. VideoOne has always been our selection.

Having never used a repair service for my cameras I was a little reluctant to use a company I was unfamiliar with. Video One Repair quickly eased my concerns when I talked with them and I felt confident they could repair my Sony FX 1000. The repair was perfect and the turn around time was quick. Thank you guys for a job well done.

My experience with Video One Repair was exactly as Sheryl said it would be. Video One Repair did everything they said they would and the camera was returned on time. I did some land and underwater taping over the last week and the camera appears to be in great working order.

Thank you ALL !

"I thought they had placed a new camera in the box. I pulled out the well packed AX 2000 and fired it up. Everything was as they said it would be and more. This camera takes a lot of abuse as I use it outdoors for hunting. I was blown away with how the camera looked and worked! The people at video one make you feel like you are their only customer, which is really important to me when I am shipping my expensive gear across the country. I would not want anyone else to work on my gear, and those who know me know I am particular. Go Video One! Thank you!"

I've done business with this company several times now, I have a pair of Sony HVRZ1's and can't highly recommend them enough. I did some searching on the internet and found them, glad that I chose them. You can call them to discuss the repair, they make it easy with a nice form to fill out on their website and the repairs were done promptly and at a reasonable price.

On a recent LCD repair, the quickly diagnosed the problem and even offered new and used replacements for the screen, they could've just sold me the more expensive new screen. That's crazy good service and putting the customer first, in my opinion.

So you can't go wrong here having your video camera repaired or serviced here. I hope to not use them again but if my cameras go down again they will be the ones I use.

I feel strongly about their service, best company I've had to chance to work with. Highly recommend them.

So much so that if you'd like to hear more about the service they gave to me, feel free to email me at fraziern@oceanimaging.com, be happy to give you the scoop on them.

Here is my story, I was in the beginning of 2012 wedding season & two not one “two of my Sony VX2100 camcorders crash on me...
Well I panicked and started looking on the internet high and low for someone in the eastern US to service them. No luck, every number led to a dead-end, and I needed them fixed like yesterday. I was stressed and finding no help, until I looked out west on the Internet and found my saver video one repair. Their website was great and there staff, I talk to on the phone with. Where even better, I shipped both cameras to them fast they look at them contacted me withindays with problems and cost. They did the work and had them shipped back within a week yes I said it... A “week” I thank the Lord for Video One Repair and there great staff and service department.

Thank You

"I have been the owner of a video production company in Colorado Springs since 2002 and I tend to burn through my cameras pretty quickly. I take good care of my equipment but they are in constant use. I started sending my cameras to Video One Repair in 2005. The first person I spoke with was Sherman at the repair shop and he won my business immediately. Not only did he know what he was talking about but he was also very friendly and personable. In 2005 they worked on a couple of my Sony VX2000 and since then they have repaired my VX2100s, FX1s and I just sent my two Sony Z1U cameras. They have replaced the mechanisms, heads, fixed back focus problems and did an over all cleaning. I get my cameras back within a couple of weeks looking brand new and I feel like I am shooting on a brand new camera. They even come with a 6 month warrantee which is transferable. A couple of times after they have been repaired by Video One, I sold them on eBay so the transferable warrantee is a value add for the sale! I highly recommend anyone that has a Sony camera that needs repaired to send it to Video One! "

I sent my 2 Sony fx1000's in for a microphone and battery compartment issue. I told the customer representative (Sheryl) that I needed my camera back within 11 days. She assured me she could get them back in time before my next shoot. Not only did they do a great job on them, but also got them back a day ahead of schedule. She was the most knowledgeable and friendliest rep I ever spoke with. I will definitly be using their services again and will refer anybody I know to them. Keep up the good work Videone. You are great.

Video One Repair, were very knowledgeable over the phone, ready to troubleshoot with you, and did not beat around the bush, as what the cost would or would not be. They are honest and accurate, and know their stuff. I live in Canada, and shipped to them in the states, because of their help and knowledge. The shipping and repair back to me, was speedy and now the camera is like new. Not only did I like their work, I like that they warranty all parts of camera, for a full 6 months after they have repaired it. They not only fix the problem but check all of the camera to make sure it is in tip top shape. THanks They are A++++++ in my eyes."

I actually asked the people at Video One Repair if I could write an endorsement about my experience with their Company, VideoOneRepair.com. That was something I never did before. However, their professionalism was exceeded by their desire to help in a way that went well beyond what we usually experience from even our best vendors. For these reasons, I felt compelled to get the word out.
Sending my Sony Z1U for repair over 3,000 miles to California from my perch in Tampa to a Company I found on the Internet, was done with some trepidation. I did some research but my comfort level was not 100%. I needn't have worried. Sherman Bahr and his wife exceeded all my expectations by perfectly repairing my Camcorder while providing answers to questions no one on the Internet or otherwise was able to provide me with after five years of research. And they did so with saintly patience and a friendly attitude we rarely come across in the world we live in today.
If you have a Sony or Canon in need of repair you can no place more worthy of your trust.
Did I mention how fairly they charge for their expert services? What a bargain they provide given the comprehensive satisfying way they treat their customers.
Call Sherman Bahr at 888-283-2228 to see if they measure up to what I have just said.

Four years ago was looking for trusted service for our school cameras and apprehensive of companies found on the internet. Took a chance on Video One Repair. Great service, was even able to talk to technicians regarding problems and given tips on how to save additional repair expenses. Very Very happy with pricing and customer service.
